I hated it at first wasn't a true Z to me. I'm a hardcore die hard old skool car fan. But after more and more photo's and comments on the car I'm starting to see potential. I always like to say this to doubters wait till they make a sexy body kit for it. I'm only disappointed it's a V6 and not a straight 6 and that they arn't planing on a turbo version yet Gav
In Aus I know that you can get a gnose from a place called Zworx based in melbourne they go for around $700 and there the 7 piece replica not the yukky 3 piece that Zshop sells well at least I think they sell that one.
I don't have the number on me but if you wait I can post it up when I'm at home for you so that you can give them a call the guys name is Warren.
By the way I take no offence to how picky you are about originality HS30-H. If you can guide me about how to make mine the genuwine replica then do so I'd appreciate it.
Hey guys I am still downloading this movie but from what I've seen it's cool I read through the whole post and thought I'd add some of my 0.02 cents. Firstly I've seen the earliest 240z no wait touched the earliest Z it's number 44 I believe and it's orange and in good condiiton full restored If I had the money I'd buy it. Second in Gran Turismo it's a Fairlady 240zg with the full ZG kit. You can also find the original Skyline GTR in the game too. Recently I've been looking into the original 240z's sold in Japan and I really wanna restore my 240z with a gnose and am considering the wheel flares etc. I just love sometihng about them. I mangaged to find some rare ZG pics from jap webpages which i was reallly pleased about. THe more I read about these cars the more I love them there is so much about them that makes me wish I was born 40 years ago. I also bought 2 model Datsun's recently both ZG's one is made of metal and is 1/24 the orig size and pre assembled cost me $110 AUSSie bux the other was a kit you can make yourself and paint it from the shell up I ran out of paint but so it's not done yet. Will post pics when it's done. That's it I'm done braggin' Gav,
Hey what's the diff between a Pop Off Valve and Blow Off Valve? If there's no difference am I to assume that blow off valve's or Pop off valve came stock on 280zxT's? I know that SAAB and Volvo I think have been using them for a long time. Thanks,
Hey Darren tell us more about this RB30 with a Twin Cam head conversion like how much it would cost all up to stick it into a Z. I'm currently considering working an L28 Motor to around 200kw at the wheels but I've also considered the cost and how much cheaper It would be just to buy a RB26DETT and engineer that to my Z. I'm looking for a rough quote not a completely worked RB30. Any ideas.. Thanks, Gav,
