- [2015] What Did You Do To/with Your Z Today?
My Z got a tuneup and replaced both wheel cylinders, and rear brake hoses.- [2015] What Did You Do To/with Your Z Today?
Do you have the JDM headlight covers, love mind, installed 1977.- Stolen 240Z
I'm so happy you got your Z back,that's one nice Z car. Love the color,looks a lot like mine. How did you track it down.- Newest addition to the garage.
That's just awesome.Can't wait to see the finished product.- 1970 HLS30-00765 on Ebay
Radiator missing a decal Need the correct hose clamps Paint code decal missing Agree with post #5#7. If someone is going to pay this price, then everything, and I mean everything should be correct.- Z car for daily driver?
The first time I took a test drive at the Datsun dealer I was hooked big time. So if you go test drive a Z you best have some money in your back pocket. I've been hooked for 40 yrs.- 1969 HLS30-00182 on Ebay
If the headlight buckets,grill and the front bumper are in the car ,then why were they taken off. The Z looks to me to have sat in a field, then moved to the barn. Looks more like a parts car to me.- Interpart spoiler
Could not find a find a BRE spoiler back in 1976, so I settled for a Interpart. I was told this was a knockoff from the BRE. So what's the difference.- Off to ontario!
Yep, 15" Panasports with 205/55/15 tires. Wish mine had the chrome lip.- Off to ontario!
That looks great. Need some Rims like mind.- 240z vs 260z front and rear spring height
Oized Is this for a early model 260z. There is a difference between early and late model.- Do i need to replace the rear suspension springs? Car too low in the rear?
There are also two different spring perch heights on the 260z. You have to measure from the base of the tube where it joins the spindle,to the lowest point of the perch.Usually where the end of the spring end seats into the perch.The early model measures 9.25", the late model measures 9.75".This was how I came up with the difference in spring heights. Sorry I didn't want to confuse anyone. I had to find my notes going back to 2002. When i installed a late model spring perch with Motorsports springs the ride height was 0.5" to high. Hard lesson to learn.- Do i need to replace the rear suspension springs? Car too low in the rear?
If I were you I would cancel the order. There is a .5 inch difference between the early model and late model springs for the front. Been there done that. Not sure on the back. The 74 springs also have a different spring rate.- Do i need to replace the rear suspension springs? Car too low in the rear?
I would replace all 4 springs and shocks, and install bump stops on all corners. The best place to look, would be Motorsport Auto.- 280z 5 speed and 280zx 5 speed differences
Someone on this site makes a modified shifter. So yes you are going to have to bend it.- Heater Control Valve
I was going to say Motorsports Auto, but they were out of stock. There price was app $ 260.00. That's crazy.- Thinking of buying this 280z...opinions?
I think you need to take a really hard look at a early model 260Z for all of the reasons stated in post #2,4,5,6. These are great cars for the money, you will not be disappointed.- Which car are these wheels from?
They almost look like the rims( Factory) for a Datsun 810.- Hardway's 1971 240z #8011 - Build and Repair Thread
Back in 1976 mine went on the inside. Now they could go on the outside, I don't know. It would be a pain in the butt to clean the windshield if it was on the outside.- replacement vinyl
Try Classic Datsun Motorsport Talk to Les- Question about the mainifold warmup loop in the cooling system 1972 240Z
Ok Guys Please get me straight on this setup.I have some friends in the Triangle Z Club that just plugged off the intake and thermostat. I don't see that to be a problem in NC because I don't drive mine that much in the winter. So if I plugged off the intake and thermostat would that cause a dead zone and a rise in the temperate and create the Z to run hot.- What is that stuff?
That the wildest setup I've every seen.- engine over heating with new su carbs
