Not happy with my setup
My first impression is that your tires have to soft of a sidewall. When I changed from 205/60/14 Contisport tires to 225/50/15 Toyo proxis4 my turn in bite increased by 2 fold with only a minimal decrease in ride comfort. Not a definitive but food for thought.

Racing Harnesses
I purchased two 5 point harnesses from Safe-Racer made by G-Force. They have cam locks and bolt in hardware. They are 3 inch thick through there entire length and I secured them to the original seat belt mounting points, using the original mount bolts. Check the pics and see that I mounted the shoulder belts to the rear strut mounts, again using the original nuts and washers. I then trimed the tower covers just enough to clear the buckles and snaped them back on. Hope it helps.

Everything you need to know in life can be taught from a Datsun 510
Just about brought tears to my eyes... thinkin of my first 71 datsun 1200.. Beatin by all who showed up and still the envy of my block. Thanks for the memory.

Check out this "71 240Z"
Not sure I see the "discrepencies" that you are seeing. It looks as though the car is complete and the production tag does not appear to have been tampered with. The current price is in my opinion not a bad purchase as well... $2100.00 will not buy you much more car than that these days. I think he's probably being honest with what he has and could make for a good Z to a new home.

Hey DeesZ, Glad to hear all went as well as it did. Hope the clean up doesnt take to long as well. My list went like this so far. 6:30 get up start Z 7:00 hit the road for 30 min. to find out McDonalds is closed. 7:15 dodge deer in road 7:30 get my daughter to Dialysis 10:00 get home to chill beer in fridge 10:05 clean up broken beer bottles in garage 10:10 get back from store with more beer 10:20 return for more beer (wife says its not enough) 11:00 realize rolls are not going to rise (return trip to store) 11:15 decide it is not worth the effort and start drinking beer warm. 11:30 answer wifes call to duty and cook vegi salad. Hey my day is half over. 12:00 get the car loaded for trip to inlaws.. gotta take the Caliber.. rather take the Z 12:30 log on to internet to say happy T-day Gotta go wife wants somethin again Happy Thanksgiving all.

Purist vs practical
I purchased My Z a year ago with 57000 original miles and in great "original condition". Since then I have modded the hell out of it taking great care to pack and lable every part for potential resurection at a later time. I have driven it to Driving Datsun fun in Oregon over 1000 miles round trip and put a total of 16000 miles on it this year. I wouldnt change anything I have done to my car so far... we will see in 10 more years or so... you never know when the "original" bug will bite.

DSCN2375
Just finished with the new Rewinds and Toyo Proxes 4s... I wasnt sure about fitment so I rolled the dice and went 225/50/15 and they fit fine. New to the car.... it wanders alot now but the payoff is better ride and no more tail around on the throttle.

Help as usual would be appreciated. Thanks Folks.:nervous:

This is my "In a barn" find from East Washington state. It had been sitting for years.. I found it-bought it-and drove it home to Montana. It developed some issues from the hybernation but all fixed now and runs and drives wonderfully... I paid $2400.00.
