Perth 240

Have a sectional view, and 2 disassembly pics. Hopefully one has what you're after.

I have a workshop manual at home, will scan the carby pages and post them up this evening

If you're thinking of selling I'm sure you will find many people interested locally. Do you have any pictures? I'd be interested

I thought about heat but I think the glue was too set for it to make much of a difference. Also, unless you heat the tools you are working with and the entire assembly you run the risk of temperature differential cracking of the glass. Last thing I needed was hot glass breaking everywhere.

In case anyone else wanted to know, on these old style mirrors the screw is behind the glass. The mirror is held down by glue, which is so hard by now that taking it off in one piece would be an achievement.

Hi, Looking to buy a pair of early style fender mirrors, but before I commit I want to ensure it is possible to disassemble them so I can have them re-chromed. Has anyone taken a pair apart, or have a Japanese Workshop manual that may show this? Regards Ray

sold!

It infuriates you that people like your car and want to buy it? I must admit, I kind of enjoy it. Just thank them for their interest and politely say it's not for sale. I've found if you're polite they are polite back. I have driven my car as a daily for almost a year now and I've had one note left on it, and 2 people offer to buy it. As YamahaCam says I don't think most people know what it is.

Yahoo Japan search for tail lights: ????! - ????? ????????? If you bide your time and keep an eye out, a good deal will pop up every now and then, I got my tail lights (complete units with wiring and globes) for ~$210AUD including postage which I was happy with.

All red rings were wired for tail light/brake light, however the wiring looked custom so I wouldn't say it was stock. I had the spare tail lights from the wrecked car, so merged the two harnesses as the Japanese lights had a 4 pin plug vs the 6pin one the Australian cars have. No need to get so angry there mate. I found my car by leaving a note on it asking if the owner wanted to sell, which is basically what these guys are doing. Just take it as a compliment that people like the car.

Hasn't been too much to report of late, car has been serving daily duties with out a fault. In the last few weeks I seem to have been getting a lot of offers to buy it, both from "exporters" and a few guys that had them as first cars back in the day. Anyway, finally sourced a pair of lenses of YaJ, and after a bit of cleaning they are on the car. I love the look already.

Hi All, Bought these badges off YaJ mistakenly thinking they would fit my 240K, now that I have them they look to be C210 emblems. I paid $100 for them not including postage. So hoping to get $100 back, to help I will post anywhere in Oz at my expense. I realise this forum is C110-centric, so pass this on to any you know may be keen. Regards Ray

So all red rings are dual filament? That's what I was wondering, bit of good news. I read somewhere that the outer rings were dual filament for park/tail lights, and inner rings were solely brake lights, just wanted to check.

Did you wire them up so that all the red lights are dual filament, tail lights and brake lights? I have a pair coming sometime soon and that's the plan

I remember finding these on YaJ auctions Import Monster | View CUSCO GC110 The part number is 226 410A, chase up a Cusco dealer near you and see if they can find something? Distributor Distributor English page CUSCO

But Datsport also want $560 for the pair, as opposed to the $150 these eBay ones will cost with postage. Yamaha Cam I looked into it (admittedly not too hard) and couldn't find any as cheap as those eBay ones previous. Keep this thread updated if you find something.

Did anyone get a chance to see this car? 1977 Datsun 240K Sedan | Cars, Vans & Utes | Gumtree Australia Adelaide Hills - Lenswood | 1047498501 Sedan in adelaide, seems to have sold within 12 hours

That Dark blue sedan in LaTrobe, Tasmania seemed to have sold prettty quickly. Anyone get in contact with the owner to see what sort of condition it was in? Or if it had been licensed/engineered with the RB motor in it?

cheers, i'll chase them up

If it hasn't been mentioned That Gumtree coupe is on eBay, staring bid of $4K with reserve not met. Datsun 240K GL 1974 2D Hardtop 3 SP Automatic 2 4L Carb in Boronia Heights, QLD | eBay

this is interesting: ???????????????4Dr????????????207 - ????! does anyone know if the centre trim rings from my car will suit these? or if i bought them would i need to look at re-chroming or painting the Japanese ones? Any help appreciated

Firstly, amazing car. Secondly, rear window louvre, is it currently on or off the car? If off, would you consider selling it? Cheers Ray

Hi all, Just thought I'd see if there's anyone around Australia that would considering selling a pair of JDM lenses? Uras has pointed me in the right direction on Yahoo auctions, but thought I should ask here as well. Regards Ray

awesome, cheers. Don't know what I was searching but there are a couple there I haven't seen before

Is the silver one really that over priced? I mean as a sum of its parts things I think 9K isn't too far off. It looks to be a solid coupe base to start with. As for parts, it has spare grilles and a front spoiler that come with it, JDM tail lights (which the white one doesn't), skyline badging, even the interior has the correct steering wheel. I would remove the front guards and replace them with something more subtle, but I don't think the rears are that bad. I'm a sucker for the 3 piece rear spoilers, and I'm intrigued by the chrome trim on the rear quarters, perhaps a vinyl roof car? And those SSR MK2's? I think you could safely say it's sitting on $2K of rim right there. Personally, I'm surprised it hasn't been snapped up already. My guess is that it's harbouring some serious rust that the seller hasn't mentioned, that or our UAE buddies really prefer sedans. Was listed here 6 months ago, albeit with a much nicer looking engine: 1975 C110 Skyline GTX Replica Datsun 240K Coupe in Northern, SA I'll be interested to see where the white one ends up, but 30K for that is preposterous.
