Rather than let these threads go on forever as they do in some other forums, I thought I'd start new ones for separate generations for the New Year. Use these threads for short, Twitter-like posts, things that may not be worth their own thread.

This one is for the S30s. Enjoy, and let's keep each other involved!

Taz0162 reminded me.. {Post 106} - So today I pulled the Vintage Air system out of my White 72 - and am returning the car to stock - so I'll be refreshing the original heater/blower and reinstalling it over the next few days...

I may just get carried away and pul the engine to refresh the engine compartment as well...

FWIW,

That sounds very interesting. How did you do it? do you have any pictures?

I used some braided picture frame wire and 2 lead fishing weights for clamps looped around the pull lever, routed the cable over to the wire loom tab, then straight down to the tab on the frame rail. It might be a little shade-tree, but it sure saved a lot of time, frustration, a lift and money. After breakage it was open in about 20 seconds.

Dropped the gas tank, filler neck, taillights out, weatherstripping out, interior panels out. Tomorrow the engine comes out.

drove next to a great 280zx turbo near the SJC airport. i spotted it down the street and went the long way to work just to wave hi. he threw out a hang 10 :]

Gave her a wax job, going to a cruise-in tonight. Love driving the Z.

Just purchased some 260z seats with tracks off Craigslist. Only $20, bargain in my opinion. Using best seat tracks between these and my 73's originals for my Corbeau seats.

Well technically, not my Z... Starting to reassemble my neighbor's 72 240Z Automatic.

Polished-up all the exterior lights, installed drip mouldings, adjusted one window mechanism, installed side lights & front parking lights.

Doing it a liitle at a time as I have time. Plan to have it put together and on the road in about 2 months (or less).

Changed the fuel filter and Cleaned the SU Carbs. Took for a short run... Ran great~

Got a vintage Recaro leather seat for my 73 for $200 with Recaro seat rail. I am so pumped; found it on Craigslist Orange County. I did not even barter on the price; I took it and it will be delivered today so I can install it in time for MSA.

I gutted the interior yesterday, and found $0.30 in change.

Cut and threaded shifter today, and installed Nismo Shift Knob. Looks great, but I hope 3 inches off isn't too short. I have to get the car going before I can test it out.

I changed the oil, washed the car, and replaced the horn relay today. The car is pretty much as ready as she'll be for the Mitty on Friday.
