  1. I expect so. Just like the mag wheels, rear louvers, and anything else the dealer wanted to put on the car to jack up the price.
  2. They look too big for a zed. I saw them in a mag the other day. I'll look again and tell you the brand name. they are definately after market mirrors. I wouldn't want to mount any mirrors if it involved drilling through the stainless steel window frame.
  3. Those datsun dealers were Butchers. Riveting on side stripes? Drilling holes in pristine just off the boat new datsuns. And those VW style overider tubular bars are just damn ugly. Glad Aussie Dealers had more sense.
  4. Wouldnt want a metor to hit there.
  5. If you are going to drill them out, use a centre punch first to mark the centre of the head so the drill doesn't slip all over the place.
  6. Same number of coils both sides. I thought the best way to lower was to shorten the strut, not cut off some coils?
  7. Haynes manual states that the free length (whatever that means) of the Left side strut is 14.1 inches, and the RH side is 15.1 inches. 260Z free length were equal at 15.5 inches. Probably the right side was longer so that when a driver was sitting in the (RHD) drivers seat the car sat level. The battery is on the left of the RHD cars. LHD drivers probably weren't condidered.

    Hey Gav where'd you get the photos from? Got any of the Skyline (240K) GTR in the top right of this photo?
  9. Ummm. Actually that was a Canadian that said that. Dennis Leary is Canadian. But funny song anyway. Was Number one on triple J hottest 100. Quote: "2 words, Nuclear F*%$ing weapons, OK"
  10. Yeah Dont know whos car it is. Found the pic's ages ago on the net. Cant remember where. Some other mods the car has are motorbike style petrol filler, a pod mounted exhaust temp gauge on the A pillar, shaved bumpers, massive wheels, and a 280ZX turbo scoop thingo. Some more pics:
  11. Baseball? Isn't that a movie by those south park guys? Crickets not really like baseball. It's played in almost every country in the world, and baseball is only played in the USA and Canada. So how did the USA go in the Cricket World Cup? Oh that's right, I dont think they even qualified.
  12. Yeah it was very US biased. Especially when the anouncer said the 240Z came with a 4 speed gearbox. Yeah, only if you were unlucky enough to be living in the USA. The rest of the world got 5 speeds and rear anti sway bars!
  13. Speedo and tacho You dont have to remove the gauges to get to the bulbs. they just clip into the back of the gauges. you can get to the center ones by removing the glovebox.
  14. White faced gauges in a 260z.
  15. I've seen cars that have black surrounds around the tail lights, so they spray the lights with a clear/black tint mix to make them darker to blend into the surrounds when the lights are off. Gives them a custom look, but makes the lights dimmer. I guess if they fitted the led style brighter lights to offset the tinted lights it might be ok.
  16. Well i can still hear the history channel and it sounded like the shows listed were 3 hours ahead.
  17. I thought it was 7:30 WST. 3 hours difference? of has the eastern states daylight saving ended?
  18. Gee you are a legend!! I was looking for repeats, but couldnt see any. P.S. Next tuesday it's about the porsche 911 if anyones interested.
  19. So how many miles do you get per bottle?
  20. Really. Maybe its a 2.8 block with the 2.4 head. :stupid:
  21. So the Chassis number is HS00738 How rough is the interior? When it comes time to find all the little bits and pieces that are broken or missing you might reconsider that statement. You checked all the usual spots for rust? How much is it?
  22. Yeah. Might see if i can get a friend to tape it.
  23. Try taping them off the TV when the cricket is on. "Overseas model shown" the Ad's say. THey usually put this on because the overseas models look slightly different. Different headlights, or bumpers, but i havent noticed the overseas model looking any different in the Ad's
