Hey all, Just wanted to put the word out about our new forums. I've downloaded a much easier format that is much like this one. Everyone so far really likes it. If you don't know about www.zenthusiasts.com, We are the beginnings of a new Zclub in Eugene, Oregon. I hope with some time, and some exposure, we will grow into a healthy Datsun Z club. ( only time will tell). So consider this your invitation to stop by, register, and and tell me what you think! Thanks, Brian K. aka (azcarbum)

Came across this nice 73 lastnight. The exterior shots certainly make the car look fantastic, but the engine and interior shots could be better. Wonder what the underside looks like. Any thoughts on how high this auction might go? I've been away from the Z world for awhile. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=4646946795&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT

My brake light on the tach is stuck in the on possition. I know it is the relay under the passenger seat that is bolted on the front left side. When I tap on it the light goes out. Does anyone have an extra in a parts car or a part number for this item or has anyone ever replaced this with a different type of relay? Thanks, John

I ordered a lower-left-rear fender patch panel from MSA back in March of 05. They told me a month later it was out of stock. Yesterday, 1 year and 4 months later they decided to call me and tell me that they would not be able to fill the order. Crazy stuff.:stupid:

Hi All, I've been lurking on this board for a few months now and I am ready to take the plunge and pick up a 240 0r 280. I am looking at a 78 280Z that seems to be in good condition. The car is 5000 miles away so I will have to get a certified inspector/appraisor to check it out for me. The seller states that the car has less than 40,000 original miles. I'm hard pressed to believe that is true but after looking at the pictures he provided it may be true. I have two questions that I would like to see if you guys can help me with. 1. What should I expect to pay for a clean unmolested 280Z? 2. Does anyone know if the 78 model met the 50 state standard for emissions? Thank yo…
