I saw in a book 920kg :-| Who knows teh correct weight !?

Mmmm I see.. so they wont fit on *normal* wheels (ie what I've got - see my gallery)

Mmmm yes I'm very interested! Although, I'm not sure how hub caps are fitted to a car? Sorry if that sounds like a terribly stupid question ... will I need to buy a new set of wheels to fit them on? What diameter are they?

I live in Australia - can you give me a figure of how much it would cost to ship it over here ?

Maybe remove the Datsun too, as it looks weird how it is now :-/

Interested, but ask the same questions as Guycali... Pictures ???

ok i'll reword it "Agreed, and I'm a young'un !!!! " Happy?

Agreed, and I'm not even old !!!! If I wanted to go sticking plastic all over my car, I'd buy a civic. WIth a Z, not only do I get a classic car that is considered one of the most influential cars of all time, but I also get a car which will APPRECIATE ! :D

So then HS30, is it possible that my car is "correct" in having no rear hatch vents but still having the hand throttle? I'm number 1031 btw - mid 1971 ?

I'm first! Looks like we have a VERY diverse range of ages here... hopefully as more people vote we'll get to see which age group the majority of people are in.

Zed yeah I bet that's teh best of both worlds And datzun76 no cos your car aint stock

Definitely. A nice look would be without any bumper I think. However then if you get hit from behind like you said you do have quite a large problem ...

Yeah the 280Z wasnt ever in Aus, it was the same body (with some big fat ugly bumpers to compensate for increasingly harsh crash testing standards) but with a 2.8 - same engine as teh 280zx I think... but I've given up arguing with datzun76 - I'll just be content in believing what I believe and besides, they're ALL Z's and thats what really matters.

240Z Weight: 2355Lbs 280Z Weight: 2875Lbs They're stats.

bollocks to that Look at teh figures Zed posted. Yes, a 240z beats a 280zx, as does a 280z. Of course weight changes if you change the parts on a car. :stupid: If you're trying to prove that a modified 280z can beat a stock 240z then of bloody course .......... a modified civic can beat a ferrari. So what?

It's hard to believe I know, but I've never seen any performance figures which haven't reiterrated what Zed said... Will a MACK truck accelerate faster than a Lotus Elise ? No of course not. It's not just about HP. It's to do with weight also. A Westfield has 151 BHP like a Z. It goes like bloody stink though - 0-100kmph in just 5.4 seconds.

datsun76 just accept that your car is slower than a car 6 years older than it ....

If you could copy the Z video for me I would gladly send you some money for it Roger .....

Graeme, STOP IT ! Damn im jealous

You sound like an interesting character derk..... Mike (the admin of this site) has both - although he is trying to sell his little roadster... I'd love to have a 1600 sedan personally

Imagine the type of 240 you could buy for the price of a 350 :love:

DAMN I wish I lived in the US and had cable television :(

Yeah I saw that picture a while ago - VERY nice looking. If my car was modified I'd buy it I bet THAT wont crack!!

Wow, that is truly an amazing story... great to have you here

Weight, datsun76, weight.
