I have a spare alternator, but I'm unsure if it's stock 40 amp or if it would be an upgrade output. I got it in a box of parts that I bought from a guy a while back. If I take it to have it tested would they be able to tell me what the amperage is? It has a Bosch reman tag on it AL236X.

I'm new! I've been researching and learning tons, and I'm about to buy my very first Z. Can't wait. My question for you all- how much do you spend (on average per month) maintaining your Z? Obviously everybody is coming from different places with their Z's... some folks have awesome budgets to spend lots to upgrade and fix everything... but not me. I'm looking to spend around 4-5k for a rust-free, mechanically sound 240. Not looking to do crazy mods and upgrades yet- just take really good care of it. I've never owned a classic car, and want to be realistic about how much I need to spend to keep the car running well. It's going to be my daily driver. I know I'm no…

The 260 finally made its first big road trip. Not too many pics. It was a pretty fast trip. We/ me and my son have been working on his 260 for about a year. All the fuel,coolant and brake lines have been replaced. including all the lines at the tank. Repacked front bearings and greased all joints. New driveshaft built. Installed a 5-speed. New header and 2 1/2" exhaust. Lots of susp. bushings replaced. Added a relay to the headlights. Added a fuse panel under the hood. My son found black seats and door panels and dyed the rest . Then we painted it over Christmas and installed new door and hatch weatherstrip. On to the trip. We left Wichita about 11:30 New Years day.…

Has anyone done this job and what products would you recommend? I read a review on Eastwoods system and it was not favorable at all regarding the sealer. I found another kit offered by POR I think. Both of these kits seem to run around $55. Does anyone know of less expensive methods that work?

Thought I'd share the latest Z purchase, and let the jury decide which side of the fence the car should sit on. Here goes the story ! I found this black '71 up north with the help of a friend of mine. I have enough Z's as it is but have a hard time saying no, esp at reasonable price. Ie. I buy the car and worry about where to put it later. :stupid: Anyway I got the call from my friend, called the owner a, nice Mexican lady, and arranged a time. The car hasnt run in 5 years so will need a tow. The heat was on as it always is with the Z's. As it turned out I had a guy coming to pick up some parts from the silver car, the same morning I was set to head out.He eventuall…

The wife decided she'd heard enough of me complaining about my Ryobi Batterries always dying midway thru drilling, grinding or what have you when working on the 260Z project car. So I got..... The new 1 hour green Lithium Charger 2) new 18 volt Lithium Ion Batteries. And a hummer but I don't think that's car related... LOL So what did YOU get......? Dave
