Hi guys noob here, had this Datsun for 6months, live in Los Angeles ca. It's an amazing car thinking of getting another one . Had a few problems along the way but thanks to this forum they have been solved. Few picks of my baby. All I need some help with interior electrical issues lol. Not don't trust mechanics in my area. If anyone can help that's would be awsome

 

Sweet s130 you have there fellow Angelino. lol Looking to get into a s30/s130 myself. As for shops, I've read that there's a Z shop in Whittier called Mike's Z Shop. Never been there myself to be honest but I've read some pretty damn good reviews about it. Might be worth a shot to check it out..

 

Welcome to ZDriver!

Saw your post on FB... what's your intake question?

 

Yeah I've been, guys cool as heck but as far as price it's a bit too much.

 

Nismo: sorry man to bothered you. My question is, what do i do with the solenoids cause one of those hoses is connected some where inside the firewall. And would it effect the idle and stuff

 

Homeboyx: lol yeah get a z, man I can help you. SO far I've met 2cool guys in Glendale who hook me up with some parts, guide me if I need help with the Oem installation, but they aren't familiar with the new upgrades, and performance mods. And now all the hatchwacks don't bother revving their engines anymore lol.

 

I don't have much of a budget right now due to college fees so I'm trying to come across a miracle. lol Let me know if you come across a clean bodied, manual s30 or s130. Haha

 

Well there is a project z I came across its a 77 280z 10/10 body, engine is 75%, turbo doesn't run due to someone putting in the wrong crankshaft bearings. Maybe you can talk him down he wants a$1000. I'll pm the # to you

 

I have absolutely no knowledge of FI set ups, so I would just be lost there.. lol

Do you have any pictures or link to them?

 

The front (left in pic) is the vacuum tank. The rear (right in pic) is the vacuum pump. On n/a cars, a vacuum tank is sufficient, but turbo cars need a constant vacuum for the cruise control and climate control. If you are removing the cruise control, and don't care if the vent only blows floor and defrost, you can remove them. If you want you climate control vents to function properly, all that must be hooked up properly.

If you haven't downloaded the FSM for free yet, I suggest doing so: XenonS130 - S130 Reference

 

Nismo: awesome answered my question, have all of the XenonS130 downloaded already. i dont know why i didnt get this one but i downloaded already and reading it. thanks Nismo !

 

my last question will be this. many z s130 guys have told me to remove this part but not sure if to just hack it off/ or try to unscrew it and but a bolt that would fit this lol, confusing . thanks for all the help

 

homeboyx: here is the link
1977 Datsun 280 Z

 

Awesome, thanks for the heads up. Let's hope I can work my magic and become an official member officially. Hahaha

That rust on the side skirts is a bit concerning though... Hmm...

 

It's the Emergency Release Valve aka Pop Off Valve. It opens if boost levels ever get above ~8psi. It's there in case the wastegate fails. If you want to up the boost, it does have to be removed or modified. You unscrew it with a large crescent wrench. And you cap it with a 1" (IIRC) galvanized pipe plug from your local hardware store, or a Z31 intake plug. I have removed it from mine... see my FB / Cardomain pics.
