Posted May 17, 200618 yr comment_167787 I can not believe what these brackets are going for.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Datsun-240Z-260Z-280Z-S30-Rear-Disc-Conversion-NR_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33564QQitemZ8066132257QQrdZ1I've seen entire rear kits, including the brakes and rotors for less than this price, and the seller gets a 100% rating?

May 17, 200618 yr comment_167789 Hey, what's wrong with the seller? If some idiot (who's never bought anything on ebay) wants to bid $1227 then that's their problem. I see that one of our members, Gav240Z, went as high as $55 - a quite reasonable price.Here's a new kit that doesn't require removal of the stub axle:http://www.modern-motorsports.com/catalog/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=&products_id=8 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/20081-this-must-be-a-joke/#findComment-167789 Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 17, 200618 yr comment_167826 Looks like the bidding is fixed. Same person bid up to 1200+ to outbid a zero feedback bidder. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/20081-this-must-be-a-joke/#findComment-167826 Share on other sites More sharing options...

May 17, 200618 yr comment_167830 I've bought from this guy and he is a good seller. If some newbie who doesn't know any better bids and wins . . . well, P.T. Barnum said it best.

Always scouting the Ebay for a deal . I'm thinking of an Arizona Wilwood Kit though rather than messing about with old 280zx calipers or R31 calipers. It may be expensive but for the added safety of quality brakes....well need I say more. I agree $55-$80 is probably reasonable for these.

May 18, 200618 yr comment_167861 I like the ones that have parts listed as rare. Hey I have a whole car full of rare parts like an air cleaner and a seat Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/20081-this-must-be-a-joke/#findComment-167861 Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 18, 200618 yr comment_167874 My favorite "rare" part is the two-barrel downdraft Hitachi carburetor and manifold for L-24, L-26, L-28 engines. JDM, of course. That particular set-up is made for the L-20, and though it will bolt up, really won't work.

That particular set-up is made for the L-20, and though it will bolt up, really won't work.Or this one which keeps showing up on eBay and never sells partly due to the price and the fact that he doesn't seem to know what it's really for.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Datsun-L6-240Z-260Z-810-L24-L26-4-barrel-carb-manifold_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ36474QQitemZ8064000945QQrdZ1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/20081-this-must-be-a-joke/#findComment-167880 Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 18, 200618 yr comment_167884 Well Blax240 must be happy with the price. Somehow I dont see the seller coming through with the cash though. Whats with rocketerd8083racing's bids. Any normal bidder wouldn't have bid $300 to start with, let alone trying to find alexidewayz's maximum.
