I heard of the guy converting his 240z to electric, and now theres a biodiesel 240z getting around.

Found this while doing some random 240z googling.

Yeah, the biodiesel 240Z has been around for a couple of years. The guy who built it sold the car, probably to go do other projects. If you search on ZCar.com, you'll find posts on it.

I found an archived version of the site at Allan and Rosannes site:

I dig it.

I wonder if she still puts out the same amount of horsepower/torque?

We had a conversation about this when that car was on eBay, of course now it’s an invalid item because the discussion was awhile back.

I thought about doing this with my old parts car before I sold it, but don't know if I could handle the noise and lack of speed of the diesel in the Z. Wouldn't mind a diesel Maxima for a daily biodiesel daily driver then again the LD28 crank would be too tempting to use for more devious purposes.

French Fry oil belongs in your arteries, not in a Z :devious:
