Z-Therapy video and frame question

[justaZcarguy]

Mornin'

I just rec'd the 240Z tune-up video from Z-therapy and it's excellent...Thought I'd pass along the word, it has a bunch of good information.

Also, has anyone gotten any advice as far as rust problems in the passenger front frame area from the fire wall forward, I picked up a '73 240 with a decent motor, the car was cheap enough so it didn't bother me. My question is, can anyone give me some advice on how to try to fix?

One more thing, a friend gave me some aftermarket springs he decided not to use, they are blue...Race Tech I was told, but aren't motorsport springs blue also?

Everyone have a great Sunday and thanks for the replies...

As far as the frame rail question is concerned, you didn't say exactly what or where the rust is. But, if it is only in the frame rail there are replacement frame rails you can have put in. They aren't too expensive but if you have limited welding experience it might be better to have a body shop do the swap. If it is under the battery tray above the frame rail it will require some metal fabrication to replace the rusted out area. you really should check the area out carefully though, if one part is rusted through then it may have spread to another area that is hard to see. Check it out carefully.

Yes, MSA sells a spring that is blue also, I believe they are called the Motorsport springs. It is quite possible they come from the same supplier.
