I'd like to have your opinion about my situation. My seats are torn and i need new covers. I have few options: either take it to tailor who charges 250€ (over 300$) per seat. Propably very good quality OR order new covers from Banzai (240$ 2 seats PLUS foams 120/seat) and try to tinker them. Tailor said that if you try to install new covers with old stuffings, it looks bad. BUT i've read that with new stuffings, long guys (like me) wont fit in to the cockpit anymore. So....what would you do?

So I did a bit of searching and found quite a lot of good information, and quite a few unanswered questions. The background story - I did the classic self dash repair process and it turned out great! Then my dad knocked my finished dash off a table, it fell on its face, and sustained some real heartbreaking damage. Nothing horrible, and no cracks re-opened, but the front has some slight crushed in parts. So I want to get a full dash cap rather then repeating the entire repair process over, I figure the cost + my time is about equal to the cost of a cap. I do however have some questions about the caps. Specifically the MSA full dash cap, unless there is a better alternativ…

Hey everyone, I have a question about the interior of my 1972 240Z (wrecked...I'm parting it out). I've pulled all the panels, and I'm tempted to toss them as they're moldy and maroon. The smell is moderate, and some the plastic feels very crumbly. I can't imagine using them again unless there would be a way to restore them in some way, but I see the interior kits online and they can be kind of spendy. Has anyone tried to recondition an interior before? Am I just better off starting over?

So I was wondering if anyone could tell me or point me in the direction of a website that lists all the interior options or packages that the early1974 260z came with. I was comparing my car to an early 280z in the local junk yard and it had some cool features like a fuel light where the 260's "fasten seat belt" light was and other things. There are two things im particularly interested in, there is a cap across from my fasten seat belt light above the vent controls. It looks like it would be another light for something. Also the back part of the center console, it pops out so would it have been an extra tray of some sort in a higher packaged car? Oh one more thing, my ce…

Okay, I spent all of 20 minutes installing this tonight. And at first I was worried that the depth would be an issue. Or rather the flatness of the wheel. However, that turned out not to be such a big deal, as the adapter to fit onto the Datsun column was about as deep as the wheel was, and the overall difference is about a half inch closer to the driver. What I was not prepared for was the small diameter. I thought 1 inch would not be noticeable, but my gosh it is. Perhaps it is the combination of the thickness and the diameter reduction, but I have to let it gel for a few weeks before I decide if I am going to leave it. I like it, and it feels great, but somehow a …

So, im looking this new hatch inner weatherstrip and it seems that MSA does not have them, only NOS ones that cost too much. BD has one for 50 bucks but is it any good? I do not want another oversized P.O.S that does not keep anything. Im suffocating in my z right now. Thanks.

I know this might be a stupid question, but I want to remove the dash from my 260z in order to repair it. Since I work quite a bit, I would still need the car as a daily driver. Will removing the dash render my car inoperable? Or will it still start, run, and drive just the same? Thanks

Hello all So cruising the junkyard recently I found a fresh air duct (the ones in the front of the Z that goes into the fender). Well I pulled it off and placed it in the Z this morning. Here's a question though. Exactly what does this thing do and how does one control its movements? Its kind of a bad idea to install things before you know what they do but hell it's held on by a bold so. Thanks Jan

I just got my hands on an old Hitachi radio that supposedly was the stock AM/FM radio in the 73-76 Z car?? It supposedly works but unfortunetly, I do not have the plug and colored wires to plug into the back of the unit and I can't seem to find any info or parts or schamatic for this model anywhere ( even online????) .I figure that somebody out there must know something bout this radio or at least enough info so that I can build my own plug and color code the 6 wires ( + the 3 wires for the antenna) HALP!!!@!
