Carl, the 432 (Datsun) spoiler that Les sells, is fully enclosed on the bottom with fiberglass, and the studs for securing it to the hatch are mounted in this bottom piece. I would imagine that a small o-ring or thin rubber washer would be a wise addition to seal it from water. I believe some spoilers sold during those days even came with some sort of seal for the front edge of the spoiler so water would not run underneath, but which ones I don't know. I have the 432 rear spoiler from Les, as well as the BRE front spoiler (made from BRE molds). However, I understand that BRE front racing spoilers were different from the ones they sold.

I would probably go along with you on most everything original except AC. The Z is a hot SOB in the summer, even with all the ventilation going.

mustache bar bushing removal questions
bpilati replied to Zedyone_kenobi's topic in Engine & Drivetrain
Funny, I use Prothane bushings and did have to use torches or anything. Did I miss something? -
Good to see you around Carl, thought we'd lost you. Haven't seen you much in months.

240Z " the long way to new again"

I thought you weren't quitting. -
Have you tried asking folks in Florida? Ask Carl Beck.
-
Try at least $20K.

Mine does, but it's the 432 spoiler from Les.
-
Yeah, but this was done through a dealership, right? I mean the manufacturer knew about it, right?
-
Is that a dent in the drivers door? Did you notice the Datsun radiator cap, and radiator hose?

The change occurred in 7/72. That's when the slave cyl rod and hole in the fork apparently changed.

Sorry to hear about the accident, glad you're okay. I can imagine how you must feel, but it sounds like there's definite hope for your car. At least it was the front instead of the rear. Good luck with parts. I think I might have a pass strut/control arm assembly for a 72. I'm not 100% about the control arm. Email me, and I'll try and see. I may have a light scoop too. If you buy new wheels you might want to go to 16's. If your budget is tight, Konig's are probably the least expensive. bryan223@cox.net

Hey, I hope you're not taking a shot at that thread, I might have to take offense. Anyway, Mike G is doing the right thing as the owner of this site.

When designing systems for flow, it's always good to reduce losses.

Now I find out! :disappoin

Try a car cover.
-
Just give Mike directions, he'll drive over and get the parts off.
-
This is type I have. I'm not sure if it's like the BRE system. Mine is Suspension Techniques.

Steve, have you tried installing a Pertronix electronic ignition?
-
I have one of those pans too, off ebay. It was pricey, but I think I got a good deal within the going price range. I rust primed mine and then handed painted it gloss black. But I'm going to go with a semi-gloss most likely before it goes on. This is a fairly rare part from what I've seen, but it should be common. Strange.

Look for shorts. Clean the switch with contact cleaner.

Is there a catalog yet?
