Damn, sorry to hear about the RB26.. what are you going to do with the engine?

Good news, I no longer need a roof for my z. Thanks Ashley for the roof :classic:

drunkenmaster, im not sure who owns the yellow z but it sure is nice, your z is looking great it was in the green etch primer and had all the deadener sprayed on the undercarriage and I think the boot area, Rob was doing some bodywork on it when I came in.. but man your z is looking real nice. Also I got to see the chassis rail extension on your car... looking good :classic: my_mad_z, $400 what a bargain! My roof has zero rust and is in pretty good shape.. but has a sunroof :mad: thanks for the help I appreciate it :classic:

drunkenmaster, I sure did :classic: did you see the yellow 240? with the rb26 in the engine bay? HKSZ, if you decide to wreck send us a pm zr240, no worries.

MarkeeZs thanks for the offer... but shipping costs would probably kill me... my_mad_z I went to Zworx the other day and talked with Rob, he said they don't have any roofs at the moment and that they are hard to come by nowadays. Out of curiosity how much did you pay for the roof?

Hey im looking for a really cheap 2seater 240 or 260 (doesnt matter since the roof is the same?) I need a solid roof with no rust... small dents are forgivable other than that I dont mind if the body is in pieces or falling apart. Even better is if anyone has the roof or roof skin on its own im in Melbourne, Australia. Cheers.

Rusty1 would you happen to know what something like this would cost to get done by the pros?

I was quoted $1100aud for an electric sunroof installed on my car with no drama a little less if I supply the steel cover. It is alot for a sunroof, but you get what you pay for I guess. The only problem I see is.. how am I going to find a new roof for my z? 2 seater z's are pretty expensive... even bad condition ones, around here. If I can find a roof and someone that will weld it on properly then ill go with this option.

Ok so my 260z has a sunroof but I really want that hardtop look and not the typical pop-up sunroof look on my car.. theres too much work involved in taking the roof skin off and putting a new one on so ive decided to install a steel sunroof system... which means that im going to have to make a large piece of metal or fibreglass and shape it to contour the roof curve, the only thing thats visible will be a thin rubber weather seal around the sunroof. The sunroof will most likely be electronic. So my question is.. what do you guys think of this idea? And has anyone done it before on a Z?

Are there any other magazines here in oz with Z's in em?

Thanks guys. i did a search and theres plenty of stuff there to keep me busy for a while. 240ZX nice setup, any problems with the seats at all or are they much better in both look and feel than the original seats? Any pics?

Ive found a few 240z models that some guy in jap put together. I think they look amazing. That red one has a custom front airdam that the guy made from putty.

Rotary powered motorbikes were produced... they were the Suzuki RE-5 and Hercules W-2000. I actually just found out about them while reading through some rotary forums. Heres a website if you want some more info on them. http://www.rotaryrecycle.net/main.asp?pg=intro.asp
