Hey now it is a N15 SSS, and he does only want "fair, driveable condition". I don't think it's too much of a stretch, but depends how much the house deposit is!!!

Just one thing I noticed in your post Gav, "www.ozdat.com is another good place to look every wednesday it is updated." It's updated at about 11 or 12 PM isn't it? I usually check it on Thursday morning. Just so you're not 6 days late every week, Mike (Method)

haha your right Alfa but I am usually online and up late enough to see what's new straight away. Still searching for that elusive diesel crank. I know Gee was willing to check one out up in Qld if that offer still exists I might need your help with it sometime soon.

However back to the topic at hand

I've been thinking about the whole stroker idea too.

Courtesy parts have a kit:

Stroker

for USD $1269.00. I THINK I read that if you are an IZCC member you get 25% discount, at an exchange rate of 0.70c that's about $1,360 plus postage etc. The upside is that everything would be new.

Group buy??

hehe sounds like a good idea I'm a bit off that amount of money at the moment but I'm gonna keep saving and saving. How do i become a member of the IZCC? is that the mailing list for zhome???

But yeah group buy sounds awesome maybe we can arrange something through VicZcar or here??

i bought mine for 1,000. (1975 280Z str8-6) been garaged for about 5 years or so...pretty good except for the left front fender is a different color...

If you are not stuck on having a 240z you could always get a 260z. They are a little different to a 240z but also about half the price. Good start for a first z car and you can mod the engine for performance then transfer it to a 240Z later down the track.

Keep an eye out on

they have a for slae section that is not very quick or with a lot of cars but most of what they have (240 and 260 wise) is quite good.
