Dissapointed In My New Exhaust, Twice!!
Thanks Montezuma...it is important to find a guy that you can trust that will do the job you want. Not only the skill, but the skill and understanding to know what you need. It is hard to find, but once you do you won't be dissapointed. Talk to the people who are going to do your work, make sure that they understand what you are looking for and don't be afraid to pay for a good job. The guy that does it is worth it. Good luck.

ClassicDatsun.com Speaker Brackets?
Nate, the speaker brackets work well, but the speaker location is not in a good location. So you might want to put speakers in a different location.

Dual smallerexhaust tips instead of single?
lots of interesting thoughts here. Keep in mind that some back pressure will yield better torque numbers for a street car. If you like the nostalgic look of dual exhaust it comes with a price, added weight, and not as good scavenging capability vs a single exhaust. My dual racing exhaust is exceedingly loud, it sounds like two open header, three cylinder cars at low RPM. At high RPM it sounds like nothing else I can compare it too.

With an 8qt pan, oil cooler and 2qt accusump in the roadster I can relate to an oil change being a few bucks. I run consistant temps with my Ron Davis radiator and oil cooler (mounted in my front airdam). Previous events I had internal motor issues that created hi friction problems that have now been fixed. I run a solid 180 water and 220 oil (at the external filter) with my current configuration at Fontana. I agree with your statement above Mark, and there could be good reasons to run multi weight oil in a dry sump configuration. BTW: How were the Historic's Mark?

What is the most valuable thing about this Club
Simple, this is a community where we enjoy the opportunity to discuss with like minded people our fanaticism of Datsun Z cars...We laugh, cry live and breath Z cars and this is our international platform to do so.

Having seen BOTH of Mark's Z's I can tell you that they are both beautiful cars in their own way. His early series one red Z is one of the cleanest cars I have seen. His race car, while not as pretty, certainly makes up for it in handling, power and speed...

Hi Mark... This is a good group. Glad you found your way over here. As you can see by the post above your reputation precedes you. R All of us on CZC promise not to tell your wife what you have spent on your cars

My $35 wheels
I would suggest media blasting the centers and then have them polished. these wheels look great when they are properly restored. the deep dish really stands out.
