how much are you thinking 200 dollar or more? Rebuilding diff they ask 750 euro here ( without tax :laugh: )

Looking to replace my loud whining differential, it could also he a source of vibration. I don't know the exact type of differential I need, but my 240z is north american market 4 speed manual... 5/71 If you have something and are willing to ship, let me know ! Bart

Aha , What shell is it ? 240 ?

While waiting, re polished and waxed the car today, and the steering wheel is now done in a thicker clear coat ( for boats ) with a brush, much better, will do 2 coats.

I don't know what happened to racing.. but the environmentalists sure got their way.. motogp saw the last 2 stroke bikes gone..., F1 gone all the way back from the N/A V12 ( much better sound and power ) to this...

I agree. Look for another S30, a straight body is worth everything.

Cool ! You made some big progress

Any news from ZTherapy ?

Mine does over 3/4 maybe let's say 85% out on the dash, on the freeway it goes 90% to the right, but not in the red. Don't know, maybe the gauge is off. I did order a new waterpump ( old one just blew few days ago ), and new thermostat.

Had some time left, so installed the new marker lights front and rear.

Did some small things, while waiting for other parts... the T/C rods something went wrong on delivery , I called PostNL. It's now heading back to the US, so the seller has to ship again.. Don't know how can it be, because other packages did arrive with the correct adress. Prothane sway bar bushings including bracket Throttle boot Spark plug cable set Logo for hatch

Thanks for the info. I got the numbers from the old bearings and will get them locally: 2 x Klein tonlager: NTN 4T-LM11949 YF 2 x Groot tonlager: NTN 4T-LM67048 YE 2 x Keering: 40232A0101 SWO 48 62 6-1 C8 New goodies arrived from the US and Thailand ! Pics to follow...

You know the bearing codes by chance? I saw you gave the inner and outer diameter ?

Keep going, that's the most important part in getting it done ! Good luck . Gr Bart.

Hi Chas, Do you know all the bearings numbers by chance? Front and rear including the conical bearings. I have an adress here in NL for all kinds of bearings. Thnx, Bart.

Okay new problems today... I went driving, on the highway suddenly a bang, and the temp gauge went to the far right, also the car was going all ways besides straight... I put it to a stop alongside the road quicky. Opened the hood and saw coolant fluid leaking from the pump : waterpump shot. Anyhow got the car back home on a truck. And had a look: Bearings from the waterpump shot : need new waterpump Front wheel bearings shot: I think this was the problem of vibration ? Anyhow will change all the wheel bearings now... Bad luck, but at least it a sign of things I need to replace Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Thanks I'm glad I didn't give up on the Z car, I love my current " Fairlady " ! I had a break for a while, since all the things that happened with my gf from Thailand, and the time I have been there. But got things back on the rails for me personally, and started my own company, and in time.. I got the money to buy me a better Z !

I've worked on a very rotten 73 before the car was 3/4 gone, everything can be done with motivation ! Look: http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/your-zcar-stories/29248-240z-long-way-new-again-3.html I didn't finish it, because I made a few mistakes on the floor part. But what's important is you need to know how to weld, if not things will be dangerous ! This rust now is also dangerous, a car with rust like that wouldn't be allowed on the road here. If you get a few sheets of 1 mm sheet metal, you can cut out all the pieces you need and weld it in, you will need to do one part first, and then move to another part. But get all the old tar of first.

Reading this topic again, I still thinks it's carbs flooding the engine. When you have the Hitachi carbs back from Ztherapy, use the stock mechanical fuel pump !

The seats where deliverd monday and it's quite a difference ! But sadly still the vibration issue ( less though ). New engine and gearbox mounts are on the way, also t/c rods, Original spark plug cable set, original Hitachi oil filled coil, a new set of market lights front and rear from Thailand. Also on the way new tie rods. Hope it will help a little more I need your guys advice on this: Datsun 240Z Total Polyurethane Bushing Kit Black | eBay Would it be worth it ? Or should I go for stock rubber bushings? But where do I order these ?

Talk about the weather ! Thought summer would never come...
