For sale 240k 5 speed gearbox, no bellhousing $285. Pickup only Eastern suburbs Melbourne

Could be interested in your coupe if you sell, GTR clone would look good next to my 240z

Thats dissapointing if thats the case steve as I asked if it was plug and play for a 240z before I bought it, I have contacted the seller about a replacement just waiting to see who pays postage though. I see the back of those modules look different to mine as well, they have two screws on the module whereas mine has one (71 240z) and the size of my module is a lot smaller on the back.

Well it looks like I spoke too soon, new ignition looks to have failed on me after trying it for the second time today, accessories are on but no cranking and I plugged the factory one back in to check and it started with that. I also had taken the module off the back of the factory ignition too have a look inside but bolted it back together after needing it again and now it works like normal.

Quick update, bought a new ignition from ebay and problem solved starts straight away!

Looks like this might be the culprit then, I tested for voltage at the coil and had 0 volts at accessories, 12v at on position and when cranking 0 volts again. Thanks for everyones help I'll keep you posted on the outcome.

I'm not real good with all this electronic stuff so bear with me, so I have a 280zx electronic dizzy with e12-80 module, stock coil and no ballast at the coil, when the car was first on the road after being restored a little over a year ago I don't remember having this problem and dash wires are factory and untouched. So I'm guessing if theres nothing wrong at the coil I may need one of these? Ignition Switch Starter Keys SET Datsun Nissan 240Z 260Z 280Z 510 620 | eBay Here is a pic of the coil

I've got the 280zx electronic dizzy and that's right zed head when I release the key it starts up. It makes it a pain to start especially when it's cold as you do t know when to release the key. I'll check the voltage at the coil while cranking then.

Got a problem on my 240z ignition, if i hold the key to crank it, all it will do is continue cranking but if i release it, it will start.

Thanks for the feedback guys, Mike if you get a chance to take a pic that would be great.

Hi Dan, I wouldn't say a concours resto but very much a quality resto so I want parts to fit right, I've done the same as you on a few parts on my build, bought aftermarket wasn't happy with the fit so I went with used genuine items. 71 240z build thread http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php/topic,4438.0.html
