clayton 260z

where???????????????????

I have bought many parts from Roger @ ZBarn including my R200 and have been very pleased with his service. He is very helpful and stands behind his parts. Mike

Will, Welcome to a fellow 260Z ,I also have a 74 260Z early build date . Your car looks nice I hope you enjoy yours as much I do mine. Mike

Nate, Your're in Goose Creek, is that near Moncks Corner? There are some nice back roads from hear to there and Charleston is a nice drive for us also. Let me know and we can set up a ride. Here's a picture of my car the frist day finished, so I thought. Its seems to be always something new and better to do. http://s183.photobucket.com/albums/x304/clayton260Z/?action=view&current=Dads1974260Z023.jpg MIke

Nate, There are two of us a little north, both with restored 260's. I am in Murrells Inlet and David is in Pawleys Island. I can speak for both of us we like road trips. Lets me know. Mike

guy geo, Try www.thezstore.com sending unit #11-3271 They should be able to help. Mike

mikewags, I have a drivers seat cover brand new at the house I believe will match yours, 100.00 + shipping, if your interested let me know and I will make sure it matches. I can send you a picture also if you like. Mike

Danny, I used zcarsource.com, had everthing I needed. I believe they are closed until May 1st. Mike

MEZZZ, You are right I cut and spliced the wires for the speedo and tach with no problems I also had the dash out of the car which made everthing much easier. Mike

I just covered my dash with a carbon fiber vinyl and put on some Speedhut gauge covers. What do you guys think of the new look? <a href="http://s183.photobucket.com/albums/x304/clayton260Z/?action=view&current=zcar030.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x304/clayton260Z/zcar030.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s183.photobucket.com/albums/x304/clayton260Z/?action=view&current=zcar031.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x304/clayton260Z/zcar031.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s183.photobucket.com/albums/x304/clayton260Z/?action=view&current=zcar034.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x304/clayton260Z/zcar034.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s183.photobucket.com/albums/x304/clayton260Z/?action=view&current=zcar032.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x304/clayton260Z/zcar032.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s183.photobucket.com/albums/x304/clayton260Z/?action=view&current=zcar033.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x304/clayton260Z/zcar033.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

Al, I changed to Eibach springs with Tokico struts, The tires are Toyo 215-50-16 all the way around I have no rubbing issues, the ride is good a little stiff yet very resposive. I do like the way the car sits on pavement. The wheels are 16 X 7 with + 6 offset to clear the brake upgrade. Good Luck.. Mike

Al, I know you asked for 15's but these are 16X7 with a +6 offset with toyo tires Lowered 1 inch rides very well. Motorsport Auto have them for $999.00 15X7 are 1199.00. Mike Tires do not rub on my car. <a href="http://s183.photobucket.com/albums/x304/clayton260Z/?action=view&current=Dads1974260Z001-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x304/clayton260Z/Dads1974260Z001-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

Mike W., The girl is my sister in law, the other is my brother in law. But the Maxima did finally get a dry spot to park.

1974 260Z Build date 9/73 RLS30-003069 347,000 miles Complete rebuild finished 9-07 rust free car. Family owned..

You will need to lift the motor slightly. Best thing for no leaks, get good gasket put small bead of gasket silicone on both sides of gasket tighten slightly let set overnight and then torque to spec. Worked great for me.

Just remember vacuum sucks it doesn't blow it pulls from the master vac to the engine. Air should flow toward the engine. Good Luck

Shakey, Check your check valve and make sure you have it in correctly. You have described the exact problem I had. I also replaced everthing you did, on the check valve the arrow points toward the engine not the master vac. Good Luck

Well I am new to this but I thought I would share my ride with you. First of all this was my dads car with 342,000 miles on it when he gave it to me August of 2006. I have to the best of my limited ablity done what seems to be a good job. By the way that's not me in the car. We rebuilt the car from the ground up and I mean everthing. Please let me know what you think of the finished product. This is a photo on the day I picked it up in Ga. Thanks for looking....
