I know I have posted a few pics before but that was under the heading of How stuffed is too stuffed. It does not describe my second sedan so well as it does my first one. I bought a very rusty one as it was the only one I could get my hands on but ended up being a great parts car. Roll forward about 9 months and I got a phone call from a guy in Melbourne who had his late fathers car garaged for many years and decided to sell it. He got my number by googling Datsun 240k sedan and my gumtree add came up as the first result. He asked me what I thought it was worth and I gave him an honest answer. By chance I was to be in Melbourne 4 days later( I have not been to Melb since 1994 sports trip). Could not believe my luck. The owner picked me up from the course I was attending and took me out to look at the car. He asked a lot about what I planned to do with the car, checking to see if it was going to a good home I think. Checked it out, agreed on a price and I had it transported back to Brisbane.

Photos of the extractors?

I won't have them till next week, Ebay purchase. Came up as a nos item so I just bought them. Look a lot like yours Adam. $220 delivered.

They look good Cam, HPC those babies......

Is any company manufacturing these or do we have to search for NOS items like these?

I had the extractors for my flathead Ford motor done with HPC and the temperature difference between standard cast manifolds and the HPC coated extractors was over 100 degrees!?! Just over 50 degrees external metal temp.

Ebay has them for $250 delivered, search the hi tech part number and comes up with patrol results. From hi tech they are $350.

Hi Cam,

Had a look for those extractors on eBay, here is a link to the 240k set, priced at $354.

The "HTH065" part number brought up 5 listings on eBay all with a different car/motor. The only extractor set for $250 is for a Nissan Patrol G60.......

Check out the link, you may need to contact the supplier to change your order.

On the hi tech headers website hth065 fits a few models of L6 motors but think you will find the common element between each of those models is the steering type. Recirculating ball steering which those headers have to clear. I got the pipes today and look just like Adams. Will update when I trial fit them.

Now you have me worried. They all have the same part number so I figured they must be the same. All priced the same through hi tech but cheaper through exhaust shops probably because they are 100 years old and praying for someone to buy them. Fingers crossed. Painted mine today, cant afford hpc coating yet.

Seems odd that the set you bought are $100 cheaper if they are the same as the others listed under that part number?

Found a time when 4 doors is better than 2.

Yep that'll work!!! Your big day?

No, was my sisters. 14 years in the making. Pity I couldn't have had the blue one ready as well.

Oh shame dude, I thought the blue mobile was going too!
