  1. This one's in Japanese, but one to add to your list of sites to check. http://www.catsfactory.com/ensuu.html
  2. Umm, wont that just let hot engine bay air into your cowl area where it will get sucked into the interior when you have the fan blower on?
  3. Yes they did. Theses are re-upholstery kits. It's a general listing, when you buy it, they will probably ask what ones you want. If you notice the pictures, theres different model seat covers there, 240, 260 and 280. I think its against ebay policy to list that type of advert. Listsings are supposed to be for a particular item, not a selection of items. eg if you have a selection of items in different colours, and you give the buy a choice of colours when they buy, its against ebay policy. But Ebay policy enforcement is a joke. They are happy to ingnore it as long as they are making money.
  4. Heres another rare item "rare original datsun 260z 240z mirror door mirrors 2+2" http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270034889674 Sold for US$33.99 to Someone in the US, Plus shipping from Australia. Pretty expensive for a set of non original, generic plastic mirrors. You can buy those brand new for less.
  5. I think he's looking to buy a 4 door C110 Datsun 240K from Australia, and wants some help locating one and arranging shippping.
  6. Theres a Silvia for sale in Japan I found on the weekend, though the asking price is around AU$34,000. Scroll down the page till you see the Japanese Flag http://www.catsfactory.com/ensuu.html Couple of old skylines there too if anyones interested importing a car from Japan. Also in the shannons Austion there was a Honda S600 that sold for $2400. http://www.shannons.com.au/pages/auctions/lot.jsp?id=DD254GV240NFKO12 And an XA Falcon GT that sold for $46,000! http://www.shannons.com.au/pages/auctions/lot.jsp?id=DAFFH9U179I54V56
  7. Stranger things have happened. Maybe the guy works for Monza Corporation, so he got his company to kick in some cash for sponsorship? I think here in Australia we had a car sponsored by an "escort service" once. Might have even been driven by Sam Newman?
  8. Yeah. My ebay name is the same as my name here. The seller is someone from here too, who sounds like he should be taking his dog for a ride in an italian car
  9. How do you know they own Monza Corporation? Why dont you ask Monza Corporation directly http://www.monza.us/monza/index.html Monza Corporation c/o Ita Inc. 40 White Lake Road Sparta NJ 07871 (973) 579-3400 (973) 579-3222
  10. have you tried their website http://www.swmotorsport.com/
  11. In Japan you'd pay $30,000 or more for a good one. I'm not sure why the difference in value in Australia. Probably its just that no one knows what they are. Maybe the price is based on the (Red?) Book value, which really doenst take into account rarity or collectability. The just see it as a 40 year old Datsun. I think the going rate in Aus is about the same as a Roadster. Parts aren't that hard to find, apart from interior and fittings (indicators, badges). Mechanically the are the same as roadsters. The Roadster later inherited all the improvements which appeared first on the Silvia (1600 engine etc). If James bond had driven a Silvia instead of a 2000GT, I expect you would be paying hundreds of thousands for them. I found the car on the Shannons site. http://www.shannons.com.au/pages/auctions/lot.jsp?id=Q5OB1953CZCR99FF# Goertz's input to the design of the Silvia is less then he made it out to be, as with his input into the design of the 240z. Some things that arent right with this car: The car has a roadster steering wheel and the gear lever boot is not original. The carbies are not the original silvia ones. The air box has been hacked open. It has 240K front indicators. It has Bluebird TRX mags. There was one on ebay a while ago, the bidding got to $12,000 I recall, but the reserve wasn't met. It was in worse condition that this car. (hadnt been driven in years, needed a restoration, but had some spare parts).
  12. I did a search for "Monza Corporation" in google and it came up as being an Italian company, but they have branches in the US, so maybe in Japan too. LHD you say, hmm, well you learn something new every day. (i was guessing about that part).
  13. I'd leave it as is. Dont try putting vents in the bonet. Yes that kit replaces the bumper. you'd need to remove it. Looks like matt black to me.
  14. The Ken & Mary ads are cool. Didn't work too well in my dvd player (cheap teac), but I managed to get it to play everything one after the other. Would probably work better in a computer.
  15. ....and now its been moved and I cant edit what i said before.
  16. Hey this its the 240 "K" forum. But anyway, its worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. If someone want to pay $1500 for it, then good on em. I wouldn't.
  17. Well since the car is RHD and Monza Corporation is an Italian company, I'd be guessing that the car is in Europe somewhere.
  18. Your's is the white 2000 GT-X that was on ebay, with the GT-R rear spolier, (front grill, i think too) and fender flares isnt it? If you want to see pic of a nice GT-R look alike, (and pics what it looked like, as standard) have a look at Lachlans Gallery, http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=1243
  19. You could both be right. HLS30 #1 As per the zhome link. HS30 #1, and S30 #1. Who knows?
  20. The reason he asks if he should use the L20A oil pan (Instead of the L24) is because he's in the USA and the car is a JDM C110 fitted with a L20A. Its the white C110 GT-R look alike that was on Ebay.com a couple of months ago. I think you could use the L20A pan and oil pickup on the L28, but i'd be guessing. As for moving dipsticks. no idea.
  21. Well you cant search in the USA, because the car was never sold there. Which means they were all imported from other countries. Mostly Japan, or Australia, so they would be RHD too. If you are looking for a LHD one, best to try Europe. Like Germany for example.
  22. Yep Brand new wats arent as expensive as the ebay ones, though thats without tires.
  23. Aloha. Yes, but mostly driving in the place of the right. also 2.4 not 2.0.
  24. Is it true the club CD is specifically for LHD models?
