Wheels & Brakes

Anyone knows where I can get adapters? I want to have 4 x 114.3mm PCD to 4 x 110mm PCD or Nissan Pattern to Mazda pattern as I saw this nice looking wheels but its got mazda stud pattern so wondering if I can get an adaptor is it also safe to have these? i know the wheels will come out more as well as the centre of the weight the car is FOR STREET USE only thanks in advance

I have a set of 15X6 Factory Nissan Swastikas that came on the 280 ZX/T :classic: but the PO doesn't have the center caps:( . Does anyone know where I can get a hold of some? I also have a set of Shelby Cal 500s I will be working on:D

Any of you cats got US Wheels on your Zed's? I searched in the gallery for pics of these rims. Nothing. I was looking to see if anyone was running these? There are five spoke (black) with polished lip. Four bolt. I think I remeber seeing 280's run these somewhere, so if these are the same type rims could some one who has them post a pic or other info on them. Thanx :devious:

Just got a new one today...there is a nice whited-out 240 on the front with these funky Pana/Mini-looking wheels. Inside the front cover they are selling 'Racer-style 8-spoke alloy wheels'. 15X6 is the only size and $219 each or 750 a set. Who makes these things? You would think they could at least get 'Z' center caps! Also, when you check the credits, it says "Front cover photo 'altered from original photo'", so they added the wheels! I haven't shopped for Pana's for a while so don't know how they compare in price. steve

Hi, It looks like I need a new emergency brake cable for my early 260Z, and the OE Nissan ones are a little pricey at C$170. The only other ones I've found are "universal" cables made by ABSCO (www.absco.ca) at C$45. They're much more affordable to buy, but I'm wondering what is involved in installing something like this - difficulty, special tools needed, etc. Does anyone have any advice/suggestions? Thanks, Ayan

I'm looking for these rims as they will look greta on my car can anyone please direct me to the right direction URL? name of the rims

Does anyone know of a good source for new/slightly used steel wheels. I have a set of original black "five spoke" style hub caps for my 74 260z I'd like to use, but I don't have the steel wheels. I'd like to go for a completely stock apperance with 175HR14's but I might have to go with the 195/70HR14's. I don't need the original Datsun wheels just equivilants, though originals would be nice. Thanks

I have a 260Z that has been lowered about 1.5 to 2 in. I would like to have 17 in wheels put on my car but am not sure what, if anything else needs to be done to the car to make it not rub.

Having trouble finding some rims for my 73 240...I dont have too much to spend, but am looking for some nice chrome wheels. any tips on where to look?

Anyone know the weight of a dished mag (the ones in my avitar, or on my car in my gallery)? All the ones in my garage have tires mounted on them.

My Rear Brakes stick because of my master cylinder, I think. I drove around the neighborhood (testing) and after hitting the brakes several times my rears eventually lock up! If I relieve the pressure at the rear master cylinder valve it frees the brakes up. So I bought a rebuilt master cylinder but no matter how I bled it it would not give me any pressure, plus I had to swap the lines around for the front and rears. I took the rebuilt back and put my original back and am thinking of getting a brand new master cyl. Has anyone had this problem? I saw a couple other posts on rear brake drums that are locked up,,this could be your problem. Thanks for any help
