Good to hear he is doing well.

I totally agree. My '71 240Z came with the Tokico HP/Eibach combo which I am happy with. I did alot of research on the 280Z setup here and finally decided on the Tokico HP/Eibach combo for it as well. Sal at MSA was a big help as well.

The chart is accurate as far as the 280Z Eibachs are concerned.

Marty, My 240Z has the seat covers Les at Classic Datsun. I still have the OEM covers as well. I bought all new plastic trim from Les as well. I know can redo the door panels as well.

Thanks Ron. I like this short one of Greg's EP 240Z as well. http://s19.photobucket.com/albums/b163/jmark240z/VIR%2006%20Oak%20Tree/?action=view&current=EPCarfrontstraightVIR.flv

Helpful chart from Blue at Zcar.com. http://atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/springs/index.html

Thanks John.

Mine too. Got any pics of your Z?

Our '78 280Z has the same issue.

Bump for John.

Congrats Ron. I'll definetly pick up a copy. I bought a copy of "The Stainless Steel Carrot" off ebay the other day as well.

John, How about some videos of your winning runs from the Solo Nationals? In car or outside will do.

I believe Les at Classic Datsun will recover your old panels for alot less.

I agree Arne. We used Les' paint on our '78 280Z and it looks great IMHO. I'll do the same on my '71 240Z.

Same set up I am running on my 280Z. Check here as well: www.discounttiredirect.com.

I believe Les (who was part of the Nissan restore program) would know.

My son's '78 280Z was/is code 611.

Les @ Classic Datsun has the paint in rattle cans.

Don't think that will fly.

Les at Classic Datsun has the correct grey paint too.

Might try to come down early in the week. We'll see.......

I'd love to come to this but my daughter's wedding is on Oct. 6th......

Yea the guys did a nice job. They used it as filler work and bit off more than they planned on. They will stick to insurance work next time. Your price seems reasonable. Get your expections down and signed off before work starts.

Does the $4100 include the engine bay? My son's '78 280Z was $3300 but did not include the engine bay & there was no color change either. I learned alot on this paint job.

My son's '78 280Z has new PPG glass installed when we had it painted. It already had an aftermarket windshield which was pitted. My '71 240Z still has the original Nissan glass.
