Ok guys I have a 74 260 and i'm looking for a set of rims. I have been looking all over the net. But all rims say they need spacers and stuff. Is there anywhere I can get a set of rims that just bolt on without spacers.

Ok sure thing just send me a message.

I also have 6 door skins sitting in storage. If you were to pay shipping I would give them to you. Not sure what that would cost though.

These are just guesses but something i myself would consider. Your flywheel could of been resurfaced wrong. Your throw out bearing could be bad if it was not replaced. Or maybe your clutch needs adjusted but those are just guesses and probably bad ones. Maybe some tranny guys will tune in.

That did not help me what so ever hes right. I have a 260z and I don't wanna do swapping. Just wanna see what my options are to make it a little quicker. And if there is anything that breaks on z's motor whys or tranny whys. That defineteley needs replaced.

No difference was exspected but the car to run . When I purchased the car it did not run. So I talked to some friends and i got the webber redlines from him with the adapters for 100 bucks. Then i bought my linkage for 150 so it was way cheaper than buying round tops or trying to fix my flat tops.

Ok just bought the book hope it's good . Ok well another quick question is. I have seen some other dual webber conversion and they have very little vacuum lines. What all can you throw out when it comes to the webber conversion can I just get new aftermarket intake manifolds or what. Becuase I have tried to find a write up on the conversion can't really find much on it. By the way sorry I have so many questions just rather do it right the first time than have to do it again.

Ok I don't know much at all about doing anything. But replacing to stock. But I have heard of shaving the head giving you a little better take off in the lower end. And maybe some new pistons. And a electric fan. What about little tricks that I can do why rebuilding to make sure it's better than stock at least without the turbo. Any suggestions.

It seems older brothers always drive fords .

Well my brothers cobra will take me in anything corners or not. I was just wondering what it would take. And by you saying what you say i can tell you do not have older brothers . But my point is is that my brothers car only has 300 horsepower. So if I got around 280 in mine it should be around a 13.5. But I also want a turbo becuase of the more tuning you can do. The fact of it being a 260z that is turbo which in my area is rare. And blowoff valves sound awesome . Just seeing what i could do to get a little more speed out of her if I could get about 250 out of my car I would be happy.

Budget say 1500 but I mean I can get parts very cheap my friends dad owns a shop. By the way I wanna stay carburated don't wanna deal with fuel injection.

Ok I own a 74 260z bone stock but the dual webbers. The car has been burning oil blowing gaskets here and there and is just plain worn out. So I decided to pull the motor and do a complete rebuild. But I was thinking about doing a turbo on it. I have rebuilt motors in the past even 3 280s. But I have not much knowledge on turbos to be honest. My question is what would i have to do to make my non turbo motor a turbo motor but still hold up for reliability. I know how to rebuild to stock. But i'm not really good with the performance part to make it better. Basically I want I want is to find a way to get a 13 second street car wether it being turboed or not. Reason is my older brother thinks ford rules the world and his little 13.6 second cobra is the fastest thing in the world . And I wanna show him different being we go to mokan every weekend and he always beats me and never stops rubbing it in my face. And I have put new suspension everything on my car and interior to. But i'm really lacking in the motor area sorry about babling on any help would be appreciated.

By the way when you do find one. Make sure you look VERY VERY carefully for rust. Rust is very sneaky and alot of people wanting to sell quick will try to cover it up rather than fix it. By the way if you want to travel. Here is a nice buy I found seen it driving around guy does not drive it to hard or anything. Plus looks clean as long as the rust monster isn't sneaking around underneath or anything. http://kansascity.craigslist.org/cto/1614896929.html

But you have to think with a more expensive car that the work is already done to. There could be things wrong. Like it had a really careless PO and all the wiring is messed up. And you don't know that tell you get home. Or in my case you could of found a PO that did not know what they had. I bought my 74 260z for 250 dollars drove home after putting new gas in her plus i'm the second owner. And it's my daily driver. I have put quite a few miles on. I guess my point is if I where buying a car. I would only buy a old car that needed work. That way when I do all the work I know it is not all secretely rigged up behind the dash just so it will run fine tell I get home. Just my 2 Cents but I would buy cheap and do the work myself. So I know it's done right.

Hi came across some door panels. My friend had 3 sets sitting in his garage. He owns a flea market so he gives me all kinds of goodies. Now my mother is a amazing stitcher (actually made my wifes wedding dress). Now she made me a shifter boot and my door panel skins for 15 bucks. I will post pics soon they look amazing.

Just looked at my brake reservoir. And all my brake fluid is just like grease all thick and nasty. So I am replacing everything now no matter what just to be safe. I just got the car not even done going over it all yet but I only paid 250 for it and i'm the second owner so I figured I great deal especially for the condition.

Anyone know where to get a set of door panels for a 1974 260z. I have been looking everywhere a set of new ones would be nice if it's possible. Or ones that I can send in to get re done. I just don't have any at all none came with the car.

Thanks it's a old car i'm just gonna replace everything. Rotors lines pads master cylinder. Hopefully it will fix it. It's an old car i'm the second owner first owner never took care of the car. Everything must be replaced sooner or later why not now. This will be continued in brakes and upgrades.

Since yours is on all the time I would check the wires to the e-brake. Make sure they are not grounding out or anything.

Ok I have what could be a dumb question. When I hit my brakes my brake light on the dash comes on. Just like if I where to pull the e-brake. Is this normal. By the way it's 74 260. Just bought the car so I was not sure.

Not to sound rude or anything but maybe next time you should try google found these in less than a minute. http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/CTGY/WCC Those should be what your looking.

Well i have two of these chrome rims. But i cannot find 2 more matching. Can anyone tell me what rims these are. http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=123619766&albumID=1472216&imageID=41372270 if you can't get a good look go through the pics there are more pics of the rims by the way those guys are my friends not me looking like a idiot .

I have a set of stock 97 integra rims. Will they fit my 1974 260z. Only reason I want to put Acura rims on my datsun. Is because I have no rims for it. Or what other cars will fit. Or is there any way those acura rims will fit.

I have part #13.

I have a set of honda rims they won't fit. Could you explain how to make them fit a little better I don't quit understand.
