New 260Z bonnet (hood) Share https://www.classiczcars.com/gallery/image/11067-new-260z-bonnet-hood/ More sharing options... Followers The first vented bonnet I got didn't fit too well (it turned out to be an aftermarket panel). So I purchased a new one; ~$650AUD, 1 week delivery from Japan.

Zrush Member November 21, 200420 yr comment_7808 Share this post Ben, was the 260Z the first year they put the hood vents on the Z's? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/gallery/image/11067-new-260z-bonnet-hood/#findComment-7808 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Member November 21, 200420 yr comment_7813 Share this post Lachlan the $650 was from the Nissan dealership. It's a 'regular' part (ie not special order) so there were no freight costs. The vented hoods were fitted in around 1976 as part of the ongoing solution to the vapourlock problems that the carburreted cars had. Remember that in Australia we go the 260Z with flat-top carbs until ~1978.

Alfadog Member November 21, 200420 yr comment_7814 Share this post Wow Ben, that's pretty cheap actually. Do they sell non-vented hoods too, as a "regular part"?

Ben Member November 21, 200420 yr comment_7822 Share this post I don't know if they're still available, you can try! The only parts that attract freight are parts for cars not originally sold here - ie imports.
