Does anyone have the T-type connector that combines all the recirculation valves for an 81 280ZX Turbo lying around? My local "Datsun" dealership has advised me that they don't carry the part anymore. I'm guessing to get it machined or cnc'd is going to cost me at least $100 but until I've got it I'm running all the valves into one connecting tube that bypasses the Cold Air type valve.

Runs okay without it, just idles high and runs rich, but if anyone has one they don't mind parting with or selling I'd def be interested. A pic of my cars basic setup is below, although I've got it connecting back to the beginning of the intake manifold.

Just need the X-joint actually, I've actually got everything else I need, I just don't have a more recent photograph...

Unfortunately it's also a poor setup, assembled out of hose adaptors and improvised connections. I get paid on friday, but most of that is tied up in rent and bills, so the most I could justify then would be about $25.

Two weeks later than that I can offer more. Had a sidewall blow out on one of my tires last Friday; the cost of replacing the set with some new Kumhos set my bank account back a tad.
