I haven't even heard about this. Oh are you talking about the Z Odyssey?
-
This one makes my heart go boom boom.
-
I'm going with BRE spook on mine.
-
I wouldn't recommend pumping grease into it.
-
That last one looks like a fixer-upper.
-
Why are you still alive; you didn't throw yourself into that crusher to save it?
-
Is something wrong with the Zhome site? I can't access it.

Is there a problem with the site, or is it just me?

I'll be 50 in July, DANG!!! I saw my first 240Z in 71 when my father purchased a new 510 4-dr sedan. I remember telling my father we should get one. I got the 510 in 77 and had it for four years. Got my 240Z in 92. It's still a project car that seems like it'll never get painted. I joined the IZCC around that time and met a lot of the veterans around here including Mike.

Anyone remember the Z Car Club of America? I have a bunch of their newsletters that I have meant to scan, just can't seem to get round to it.

The 73 dash funcationality is better because the heater controls are lighted.

Okay, so we know that Kats always has access to everything. A white light would not make sense for the doors because when they are open, they would look like front lights. They should be red lights to warn traffic of an open door. I've seen this in some Toyotas I've owned. Anyway, they need to be internal to light the floor like courtesy lights.
-
Apparently there were a couple of kinds of lights, but the only people who spoke up about having found preexisting wiring were those with 73 models. I wouldn't expect a 71 to be wired the same.

Since when has Nissan been making 240Z door panels again?
-
So they added a date on the later years, eh?
-
Kats, I looked at the dealership floorplans, and remember the Pence-Briggs Datsun in Richmond, VA looked like these plans when I was 10 years old. My father bought a 510 there in 1971. They have since moved, but the dealer looked the images.
-
My passenger door is like that. What 240znz said is probably the best option.

I used Nissan front fenders.

Headlight Upgrade Harness's For Sale (again!)
bpilati replied to Zs-ondabrain's topic in GARAGE BUSINESS
I purchase this and the marker light harness a couple years ago. I notice increased brightness right away. The most impressive thing about the harness was the workmanship. It is professional all the way, no company could make it any better, especially for the price. I know the history of this harness. Dave was taking a hit on labor and sometimes parts in the beginning when the price was lower. Unfortunately I waited too long to get that price. Anyway, you guys will be getting a top quality part by every standard. -
No matter what, it had to be a rush to find it. I can imagine the rush of finding an old Z under a cover somewhere or in some old garage just sitting there. It had to be a cool experience.

To all those recommending a cheater bar or pipe, think about the fact that most people don't have a car lift in their garage. Even if you could jack the car up a foot off the ground a cheater bar would be almost useless. As a last resort for those with oil drained, either the reverse switch plug or take the tranny off so you can get to the plug. Just a thought.
-
It's killer, one of you should get it. Then take it over to HybridZ and drop a 350 into it.
-
I know the front bumper, hood and side view mirror are all wrong for a 71; among other things.

Carl, want to place a pic in Wikipedia? Send it to me and I'll upload it. I'm a Wiki editor. However the pic must have no copyright issues. Let me know.

Okay, so what's his name? http://www.zcarsource.com/content/p/9/pid/50511/catid/7505_7530/Differential_Arrestor_Strap__70_78___used
