    There doen't seem to be any new taillights (US or Euro) left at all. It will have to be us, that pays the tooling, set up and production costs for reproducts soon, or we will all be buying junk 240's just because "it had had good set of tail lights".
  3. Putting in the urethane bushes went very smooth for me. Hearing all the gymnastics some of you guys went through, makes me feel like I missed something. I followed Kyle's write up on the task, and everything kinda slipped in without a hitch. No big mallets, fires, thermonuclear devices, hydraulic presses needed. I missed all the fun!

    Mike, I still have your harness. I promise to send it out this week. I have a rear harness as well. I'll add that to the care package.
  5. gen z wrote Nothing, If some bash the ZX, They do it for own reasons. I have an affinity for car enthusiasts. We speak the same language. When someone loves their Z car, It's a classic Z to me. At work, I have a co-worker with an 83 turbo. I enjoy helping him with a few mechanical problems and seeing his enthusiasm for making it just right. while driving, I get the "thumbs up" from HS130 ZX's and they get it back from me. The main preference for the early Z is that it was a true sports car - no frills, no power anything, light, elegantly simple, GT coupe. by 73, US safety requirements added more weight for bumpers and to meet the increasingly stringent air laws, power robbing carburetors were added. This got worse with the 260Z (US models, The Euro were great). The 280Z got more gadgets and even more weight. The first ZX's were more a luxury tourer than a sports car. By adding your Turbo, they made it a go machine again. If you love your Z or ZX, show the love and you'll get it back from the other Z car nut cases out there. By the way... If you spell check "ZX", Microsoft gives a nice suggestion:classic:

    Mark, I have the Tokico non-adjustable HP's. Mixed with the MSA Springs, and bushes they are quite stiff, but streetable. I chose them because they were considerably less than the Luminias or the Konis. I'm very happy with the way the car handles. urethane bushes, MSA springs, Front and rear MSA sway bars and the Tokico struts keep the car pretty flat through the curves. Most of the AutoXers seem to use the Luminias though.

    And you will feel the same, one this problem is tracked down. As Rob suggested, you need a better shop. But California is a big place. Narrow your location down to a city for us. This is the audenience that understands:love:

    70 ~ 73 came with 1 divers side, door mounted mirror. As described, Chrome base, Stainless back, flattened oval. These were only sold as left (drivers) mirrors. I installed one as a right side mirror as well and it works (sort of). I needed to use a 3'' convex "stick on" mirror on the passenger side mirror for it to be any use. Here's a photo of my car with both mirrors visable. http://images.fotki.com/v2/photos/4/42214/120643/PB200060-or.jpg
  13. James, The wheels that are in the first photo of your site, On the stripped car. Those polish up so nice. A Roadster won last years Solvang Show with those.
