71 Ashtray / Switch housing Pic
I am trying to get all the correct pieces for my new 71 and one thing i am missing is the ashtray/ switch unit that sits in the center console above the fuse box, I have several in the garage but unsure which actually goes to the 71 year. Love to see a pic of the correct unit intact so I can hunt for all the right stuff , thanks in advance Jeff

Electronic Distributor Install Instructions
Hey all, I got these wonderful instructions from a very nice guy on ebay when I bought a harness from him a while back. I was wondering if anyone needed a copy they are very thorough and give a detailed list of parts needed , replacement parts, breakdown of the distributor and trouble shooting for the distributor as well as the tach. These are for the install of the stand alone ignition from later z. Its in a acrobat format, 10 pages long and is about 1.5 meg if I am correct. Just pm with your email address and I will be glad to send them. Thanks all

An Offer on my Z
there is an easy way to solve the problem, George get your favorite c/d or tape , about 11pm or midnight or so go out for a nice spin throught the country or in town which ever you enjoy most , I find myself doing that as often as possible with my new one, it brings back such fond memeories and build new ones , but the memories that I recall are of a 240z I sold and have regreted it for a long time, store it or do what ever but I would never sell mine , either one , funny my brother's 260 was in an accident a while back and they totaled it but he will never sell it , same reason, the great late cool night drive and the looks of envey from those who had z's and sold them and those who never had the pleasure of ownershipof one

Ebay: Help, what is this?
they go over the tail light inside portion , I know what they were because one of my dad's old mopars had them , just as Enrique said they were used as shield from debris in the trunk or from people getting thing in and out of the trunk , ususally they are open in the bottom so that water or other things don't catch in there, not sure where those he is selling are from but as we all know its no early z,

Process of elimination - Ignition. Help!
The only diffence i found was if the side of the coil listed if it was to be used with the ballast unit , if that was so it was suppose to lower it output to I think 6 instead of 12 like you were using it without a ballast. Thats what I read on the side but i have the nissan coil number somewhere if you want it?

Process of elimination - Ignition. Help!
Any zx coil should work as long as it is not for an early ballast type setup, whats the prob?
-
might be the one!
I think alot of the price can be based on where you are located as in are there many rust free ones or many of them at all for sale, and also you have to take into consideration that fact if its truly as nice as the pics point out you would have to do very little to make it a fun road car, if anything. I don't think 12k is out of this world as a price , but as a daily drive I would say no but it you want a trailer queen or one to park in the living room yes

Used Type A 14 by 7j Watanabe wheels
I love the ssr mesh but the price doesn't love me, I was trying to price them from the japanese website and I was getting very depressed, I have a guy in the states that says no prob with getting them but I am afraid to call , i might pull out my visa and regret it later , not sure of the offset but I am trying for 16's but new they only make 17's and 15's . I am just gonna wait and hope they come up for sale for a reasonable price . Jeff

Carb Hose Specification

Carb Hose Specification
roflol no i think 5/8 is a tad too big , sorry my mistake

Carb Hose Specification
thats is what I was thinking as well, if so I think they are the 5/8 fuel line , just checked the garage because i just replaced all of those on my 72 recently and I thought i had some left over, but yes in case of overflow it takes the extra fuel and dumps it into the airbox, not sure if there is a nissan number for that, both of my local nissan dealers give me the dumb look when i ask for things like that

Carb Hose Specification
Hey I just looked at my engine and are the hoses that come from the carbs or come from the valve cover? There are two hoses from the carb which are overflow hoses another from the valve cover to recycle the fumes and then a 4th that runs from the fuel fume recycle thing mounted next to the air cleaners on the firewall, maybe yours is diffrent than the ones in the states, Can take pics of mine if might help
