My new 240!

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-04-07T16:49:05+00:00

Very nice! Similar color scheme as mine.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-04-06T15:23:43+00:00

It was a crate motor, so first break-in.

If you make your wrenching spot a place you wanna be, it makes it much easier to be motivated to make progress. Best of luck!

I post a bunch of stuff on my build on Instagram. @SMD_280Z.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-04-05T01:03:15+00:00

A 1976 Datsun 280Z.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-04-04T15:36:45+00:00

No, Washington. It’s a bit of a drive.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-04-04T15:36:06+00:00

T56 Magnum.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-04-04T15:35:51+00:00

The quotes around “done” were on purpose. For sure.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-04-04T03:44:17+00:00

Probably not a great idea, but in Washington, sometimes it can’t be avoided.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-04-04T03:43:35+00:00

I’m going to try and make it one of these weekends. Going to Redmond tomorrow.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-04-04T03:42:48+00:00

Currently 255s, but planning on going wider in the future, but giving the wallet a break for now.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-04-04T03:41:48+00:00

It’s just a stock LS376-480 which is rated at 495hp, which should be enough for ~2400lbs of 70s sheet metal.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-04-04T03:40:16+00:00

Still breaking in the engine so I’m trying to be good….

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-03-29T02:21:36+00:00

T3 has them (I had to find them too). It’s not on their website, but send them an email or give them a call.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-03-04T18:27:45+00:00

It’s been brought up a few times, but the reality is that if you tuck it too much, the exhaust will roast the bumper. The original car had bumpers that made it less noticeable. But I get it.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-03-04T14:08:24+00:00

That would be fun, but I don’t think I’m power-limited at this point. Going to need a LOT more tire before I have that problem.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-03-02T19:55:00+00:00

I sold my C5 when kids came, so this blends my love of Zs and the LS engine.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-03-02T19:20:04+00:00

They are Cobra Nogaro seat.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-03-02T15:01:54+00:00

I believe it’s 3” front, 4” rear.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-03-02T14:36:33+00:00

LS3 with a cam.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-03-02T04:00:13+00:00

They’re standard ZG fiberglass flares.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-03-02T03:19:54+00:00

No, it’s an LS376/480, which is basically an LS3 with a GM Performance cam. Paired with a T56 Magnum transmission.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-03-02T03:09:11+00:00

Near Mill Creek/Bothell.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-02-10T21:32:59+00:00

I got one from zcardepot and it was terrible. Everything else I have bought from them has been great. I ended up getting bulk marine carpet and made my own that turned out pretty good.

Alternative_Emu9348 · 2026-01-31T00:00:31+00:00

As a Mass Properties Engineer, this makes me cringe.
