I'm sure this has been discussed on here before but I can't find a way to search the forum. Anyways, my driver side mirror wiggles just a bit and it looks like unless you have long skinny alien fingers there seems to be no room to reach the nut. Is there a special tool or trick? Sorry, forgot to mention this is on a 1977 280z with what look like a factory mirror. As always, appreciate any help. Thanks! Ryan

Does anyone know what the item on the left is? It's some sort of toggle switch, but can't find it on the wiring diagram. Also, the same question for the item on the right? Any help is appreciated.

As the title states, I'm trying to confirm if a 77 280 front bumper is a bolt-on replacement for a 76 280. Jai (Redwing) needs a front bumper, ckurtz2 has one that needs a home. Jai has seen pics of it, wants to go ahead with the deal, but her insurance co. wants to be sure it's an easy (bolt-on) swap with no modifications. Any info on the subject would be appreciated. Thanks. Mark

Hi All, 73 240Z Hoping someone has a fix. Replaced all of my hard brake lines from Classic tube and have an issue with one line. The tube flare will not seat. The line is seeping brake (very little but frustrating) fluid from the hole in the fitting, threads on the fitting are dry. Removed and adjusted the line so there is zero tension on either ends of the brake line, finger tighten the fittings flush before final torque with a wrench. Did the 1/2" turn lose and and tighten over and over again, still seeping. The fluid seeps cold or after driven. Leaking from the front brake line from the master cylinder to the safety switch block below the mast…

Trying to refurbish these components. Top priority is locating a mystery part. Looks like an interface piece between the big plastic panel, and the funnel. One of them is good to go, other one had disintegrated beyond any hope of repair. Have looked at the parts fiche multiple times, haven't been able to find a part which matches. I understand, finding the part number doesn't guarantee that the part is available, but it's a start. Would appreciate a ping if anyone knows what this is.

In search of my old 1972 240Z. I did a lot of modifications, and always regretted selling it, but I needed the money at the time. I owned it in California from 2012 - 2016 VIN: HLS30 42879 Last known owner was in Georgia, but may have been sold to Iowa, Idaho, or another state. It has a SBC V8, and many modifications Any help is appreciated.

I am restoring my 280Z and swapping to a RB25 DET. The motor will be run by a Haltec ECU with all wiring required to make the engine run. What I am looking for is a wiring harness for all the other electrical requirements (lights, flashers, horns, dome lights, tails lights...anyway you get the point). Are there suppliers that are manufacturing/selling the specific (non-universal Datsun fits all but fits nothing!) wiring harness? Thanks Bruno

Hi My 240 comes from CA and now in Denmark. I have this vacuum valve with a hose and no connection for that? I can see that it has a connection to the carbs with some axel downwards.

I have a 1978 Datsun 280z with a triple weber setup. I currently have installed a Champion Radiator with a dual Spal electric fan setup. As of right now the fans are wired up with relays and the fans turn on with the ignition. The car takes too long to warm up like this and surprisingly the car never goes above ~150-160 degrees F (Which I am not sure if that is too cold). I want to setup the fans to turn on with a thermostat switch that will turn the fans on at 180 degrees F. What would be the best way to install one? I would like to use any of the unused threads on my Thermostat housing (Aside the one used for the temp gauge). If anyone can link one that will work w…
