Hey all, I thought I'd post this here instead of the classifieds. My neighbor's 73 240Z got rear ended by a dump truck, he's ok but the car sustained some damage. The insurance company is going to fix the car but it's better if he supplies the parts. We need a rear hatch (with or with out glass) Rear taillights and related plastic across the back. And a rear bumper. We're in Vancouver B.C. and road trips down the I-5 are always an adventure. Thanks for looking.

Well!!!!rebuilt my carbs.I cant seem to get the floats set right.So before I take a hammer to them I want to give it another try.I have been trying to set the floats by the tweak and peek method.You know take off the domes,pull out the piston,look at the the fuel level.I just cant seem to get them set at that right level.I either cant see the fuel or it is flooding over the top.when I did get it set so the car would run pretty good,I had alot of popping out the exhaust.some call it character.Personally I dont like it.To each his own..Dont worry guys I wont use the hammer.Just blowing off some steam.I will probably send them to Ztherapy for the rebuild.I have heard enough …

I got rearended a few weeks back and after a long fight with the Insurance company they agreed to repair it. The bumper is toast and the right tailight lens is cracked. After a cursory search, the bumper is hard to find and expensive. Please let me know if anyone has either of these.

Hi, I need a replacement right side under dash duct for my 240Z ac. Several months ago I noticed a complete set of under dash ducts for a Z but did not know that I needed them at that time. I have been looking for a month but have not found anything. Is there a generic after market product that will work? Thanks, Ron

Hi, I received some great past help from this forum regarding an engine miss after installing a Pertronix electronic ignition. After trying all of the suggestions, the mechanic changed all the connectors to the tach and the miss finally went away. I purchased a used under dash wiring harness for the connectors. The tach still had a problem with cutting out above 4500 rpm during fast acceleration like it did before. The mechanic hooked up a different tach and it did the same thing - cutting out above 4500 rpm. Now the tach doesn't work at all but the car still does not miss; the needle doesn't move at all. The mechanic will try the other tach next week to see if it…

I don't know exactly when the problem started but just recently I realized that my lights ( tail lights and interior dash lights) aren't working. Brakes and blinkers work just fine but when I go and turn the switch on for the interior lights nothing turns on. I figured it might be an inline fuse but the one that I could find was fine. All of the other fuses are fine as well. The headlights work just fine... So has anyone else had this problem before? If so help please! Thanks!

I have a 1976 280z. The car fires up right away, but if I give it some gas (within the first few seconds of the car being on) it makes a sort of sputtering noise, like the car is about to die. And when I put it in gear and give it some gas, the car doesn't respond like it should. I guess the easiest way to describe it is it feels like when I press on the accelerator a good amount, the car doesn't go as fast as it should, the car doesn't really get up to speed. Im not sure where exactly to start with problem. Dirty fuel injectors? Bad fuel pump? Clogged fuel lines? I just put a bottle of fuel injector cleaner in the tank this afternoon, and ran it for a while. Hoping to se…
