PurePontiacKid Posted April 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Hybrid CV axle project (still only halfway through :( ) start with a 280ZXT CV axle straight from the junkyard cut the boot off the flange side and the other side too to make things easier cut the lower part of the case off (is actually part of the boot, which is REALLY stupid, since you're not really supposed to take the CV's off) then the diff side cover should come right out clean up the axles, and either press the tripod bearings off or cut the peens down and hammer them off like a bawse (what I did lawl) then take the other axles apart (in my case are J30 5-bolt axles), much simpler since they have a better design than 280ZXT axles lol now have a mock up piccer shoot :V Quote Link to comment

PurePontiacKid Posted April 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 I hate this car found out a couple days ago my header was cracked (whole exhaust would rotate, while being bolted tight at the flange) got around to fixing it today, just glad it didn't crack all the way through and fuck up my whole exhaust first try was to ghetto fix it while in the car, and save my "new" header for redoing the exhaust on my other Z (that's going to replace this one) that didn't work at all, so I took it out good shit this is what I had to do to just to take the damn thing out (or was that just vent some anger? lawl) new one fits MUCH better! guess that's what happens when you install a header actually made for your car??? still working on it though, fitting the flange on it, and grinding/filling those fittings since I don't have EGR or use an 02 sensor then I gotta paint it... OH and this wonderful thing happened when I was working on this piece of shit can't wait to start work on my other shell. Quote Link to comment
metalmonkey47 Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 (edited) how did you do that much damage to the fender working on it? Edited April 23, 2011 by metalmonkey47 Quote Link to comment
PurePontiacKid Posted April 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 I guess when I was leaned against it trying to do something I tweaked it, then when I went to open the door, it jammed and I was pissed at the time, so I just didn't give a fuck lol Quote Link to comment

PurePontiacKid Posted April 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 header with Y-pipe modified to fit my exhaust with O2 sensor and EGR ports removed/welded shut and then painted :D and I must say I LOVE the way my car sounds now, sounds insane from 3-5k rpm! Quote Link to comment

RAG&BONE Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 I was reading your thread and you mentioned you needed a rear end out of a 290zx turbo, i asume you mean the arms and stuff not the diff since you have the j30 diff, so why do you want the turbo rear end ? is it different than the non turbo, i know the diffs hare geared different but every thing else is the same i thought?

PurePontiacKid Posted April 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 I WANTED the 280ZX rear control arms, ended up going with the '84 Maxima arms instead (same thing) only difference is the CV axle companion flanges, since I'm going with the Z32 VLSD and CV axles car list of parts going into my subframe: '79 280ZX--crossmember '84 Maxima--control arms '88 SE V6 200SX--diff case Z32 300ZX--VLSD '97 J30--inner CV's '83 280ZXT--outer CV's/axles '86 300ZXT--brake calipers if this isn't a hybrid as fuck subframe, idk wtf is lol Quote Link to comment

PurePontiacKid Posted May 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 YAY! finally! I think I'm just going to clean it up and put it on, but only after I take my spacers off and put longer wheel studs, don't want do do a stupid pull to fit spaced out wheels :/ plan is to get some Negative Camber Roll Center Adjusters, which push the bottom of the struts out 1-1.25" and giveme like 2.5" more camber, so it'll fill the fender out better, but shouldn't need a pull (especially with the 195's I'm planning on getting soon) :D Quote Link to comment
