After much deliberation and pleading from members who either want more or never had a chance the last time, I am making the popular "Headlight Relay Upgrade Harness's again. There is only one catch. It's not as cheap as it used to be. Due to suppliers costs, fuel prices, my wifes sanity, and the fact that I no longer wish to work for my current employer (long story), the new price for the headlight harness is $125.00 inside the U.S. Outside the U.S. needs to contact me first be fore making a payment I appologize for those of you who think that this is too much but I'm sure that if you ask any one who bought one before, They'll tell you that this is a more than f…

Hey guys, just thought I would share this with you. Some may remember I started a build back in 2009 (wowsers, long time ago...) of a 1:12 scale Tamiya 240ZG model kit. In the years between then and now, many changes were made, ideas blossomed...some faded....Fact is, I now have 4 of these kits with another ordered last night. ? 3 x 240ZG and a Safari 240Z. (Safari kit is what I ordered last night. The new kit will be for an attempt at a reasonably accurate version/copy of a 432R. Will be a lot of scratch building required to get the motor correct. Anyways, this is a version of the 240ZG which I have just completed. The motor is far from factory origin…

I've designed and built several Mega Squirt harnesses for various Datsun projects. I'm an Electronics Engineering Technologist so I've designed these harnesses for optimal noise immunity with high grade wiring to provide you with a highly reliable backbone for your Mega Squirt EFI system. Electronic noise can cause all sorts of gremlins in your system. To eliminate these issues all harnesses are configured with a robust grounding system as well as shielded cabling for all sensors. The wiring is heat and chemical resistant to provide you with years of trouble free use. EV1 connectors for the injectors use the quick disconnect plugs for ease of installation and removal…

Bad Dog Parts began selling frame rails to Z owners who wanted something stronger to handle the added stress of more HP, autocrossing or track events. The 2016 father-son 240Z team that won their class in the grueling Beijing to Paris race did so with a set of front and optional rears installed by the late John Coffey, Stacey Davis on GearZ TV installed our 280 rails because he wanted the extra strength to handle the supercharged Ford V-8 he was installing and hundreds of Z owners from Alaska to Florida, Sweden to New Zealand, Canada to Norway and Australia to England now run on Bad Dog Parts. So on a long drive last week I began to wonder just how many sets of…

1974 260z 2+2, new to me this year. Needs some work with electrical that is beyond the scope of what I can accomplish. No local garages here in East Texas that can handle it as well. Any recommendations for any garages in Texas or beyond?

Hi Everyone, I have a few restored, difficult-to-find parts for sale that I thought I'd offer the membership here before advertisig them on Ebay. All of these parts have been electroplated with a triple-plate finish (copper, nickel, chrome) which provides for a more durable and attractive finish than the more common vacuum metallization process. In the spirit of the Holiday season, I am attaching pics of these pieces displayed under a Christmas tree. If anyone would like to see them in a more conventional setting, please feel free to ask. I have the following items to start: Re-chromed tail light bezels for 260/280z : $249.00 per set, delivered anywhere in US…

I make headlight covers for G-nose Zs. The plastic will not crack and is crystal clear. I make them in the OE size to fit under the trim rings. If you don't have trim rings, I also make them in a smaller radius for a flush fit with the edges of the light buckets and include L-braces made from the same plastic to mount the covers with. I'm asking $189/pair. Feel free to email me at: mclapp1@att.net or call anytime at: 816-286-6982. Thanks, Mark Clapp

Hi everyone, So it has come to my attention that Cardone does not rebuild the smog pumps up to a suitable standard, and they are only barely useable. I can post pictures to prove this theory, but it's not a theory. It's just a fact at this point that I am now well aware of. They are absolute crap. I would go so far as to say any of the "cast grey" looking ones you see online as rebuilds are all rebuilt by the same place, and they are all just terribly assembled and refinished. I have been looking into buying the necessary items for rebuilding the factory smog pump to spec, and I am wondering if this is something you guys are willing to have done for restorations. …
