The muffler guy had no room in his shop, so i have to wait till next week, and now i have no money, cause i just ordered parts for the 521 from rockauto.. :lol:

 

figured i'd get some oics of the Z gonna start on it soon, damn PO lied to me there is cancer on the floorpans :D oh well, i paid next to nothing for this!!

More oics! !!!! Of z..... :D

 

Floor pans not too bad if not badly rusted out lol

Grab yourself some por-15, rustbullet, or some rust coating system before starting

Also a welding blanket

floor jack, and various blocks of wood ( if going from bottom)

various sets of hammers, ,,, and a bfh lol

Rivet gun helps lots!

nozzle dip is a saver ....

There is weldable primer if needed :)

Also .... research seam sealers ..... for sure .... philcas recommends two part "sem"seam sealer and special application gun is spending :/.

 

I just got done doing my 240z drivers side floor pan after mig was finally fixed lol ( no gas) but its fixed! Lol yay ....

I should have butt welded, but couldn't help myself lol

 

I am putting in and cutting my own pans for extra frame bracing, running larger/thicker frame, and setting up for 4-link...

 

^^^ if your thinking big power .... straight six or not .... things to consider and incorporate :)

Great minds think alike!!!!

 

:sneaky:

i've been reading hot to hot rod and race your Datsun for chassis reinforcement.. not quite ready as i suck taking measurements and cutting and having things align.. but i plan on addressing these issues when i take welding classes B)

oh and i can brush up on my Geometry! i already forgot it :lol: floor pans are fubar in the sense of dents and stuff, i'll run it like that for a while, but my main concern is the wiring.. its everywhere... there are loose connections everywhere and i think i'd be better off starting over.. lol it's that bad

Link to comment

Haha ... that they do ... that they do :cool:

 

Yup ... wiring is #1 ... for sure ... i think 240z harnesses could be year specific ... sounds close ... don't quote me

clean up wiring in engine bay first ... then trace back

 

 

If you have plating, drill press, and chop saw .... build yourself a couple of strut tower bars then go from there :)

 

make sure the damn windshield is sealed to lol ... ( ruins everything! !! )

And cowl lip to firewall! Can rust through if cowl vents are plugged errrr

 

Measuring? The fawkz that? .... :lol:

also you can rig your self a cheaply sheetmetal brake out of angle iron, c clamps, and sturdy flat table

Grab a few of vise grips and weld plates on the ends of them ( different angles for bending, you will see what you need)

 

 

Soapstone and paint-markers are your friends .... screw measuring :lol: jk

 

Yeah the push up on pan is either some Derp jacked up on it ...

or the car twisting ... ( no worries ... they all do it lol )

 

Jegs, summitracing, and speedway have cheap priced four link brackets, panhead bar brackets, ball ends, jam nuts, and shorthand coil oversea( ain't cheap lol)

Good idea DTP!!

I has drill press and table saw that's all i need right? lol

I weld with this, it's good enough

Nice :cool:

 

As long as it cuts meh-tall .... :D

 

I am spoiled... metal cut off saw .... crapsman 4.5grinder with cut off wheels <---- lifesaver !!!!

 

Metal blade band saw ( sharp) will work nicely too.

 

After you see my welding floorpan update in my build thread ... your confidence will rise 1,000%...... :rofl:

 

Camera function broken errrrrr ....

On dime

 

*If master cylinder replaced ....

possibly pushrod adjustment between it and brake booster is incorrect clearance.

 

*Inspect your brake booster "check valve ".... ( located on vacuum hose leading from engine intake manifold to brake booster

 

*Also ... remember "remanufactured".... means higher defective rate .... even some new parts nowadays are shit quality and have to be returned just as much

 

*Make sure to bench bleed master cylinder

 

*Calipers frozen or blown?

 

*swollen or leaking rubber hose or hard line?

 

* what brand of master cylinder?

 

* wheel cylinders blown?

I don't have power brakes :lol:

 

I lost all brake pressure when i bled the back passenger drum...

and i regain brake pressure when i pump the brakes repeatedly, then instantly lose it.

i'm gonna rebleed everything again :lol:

 

after i take out the powersteering pump from my dad's Monte Carlo... those 305 heads suck <_<

Still haven't taken teh dime to the exhaust shop :frantics: :no:

Got parts for the 521 though

Shoes, Master brake, Master Clutch cylinder, and return springs for the drums, since the ones inside are probably worn.
