Nope, just fit and/or personal preference.

For a single tip exhaust, I prefer the looks of round-can mufflers back there, similar to the original. Are you having the exhaust done custom, or using the MSA kit?

Yeah, it's real. The blue ones were replacements from the parts department.

What he said. Do all three to be certain you have it well covered.

As an aside, if your LeMans are the 15x6 (not 7") size, you may well be fine with either 205/60-15 or 195/65-15, even lowered. I think the taller sidewalls of those sizes will work better with painted/white letters.

I've met John, and have seen the Zombie in person. Amazing car. Every bit as startling at is seems in the videos.

You know what? That's not always the case. Some of us enjoy our cars for a while, and then it's time to move on. Don't get me wrong - a nice 240Z is a great car. But that doesn't mean it's the ONLY great car to have....

We'll need to wait for Mike to explain why. I don't make any policies here, I just enforce 'em...

As noted above, the plates offered in this link will not pass DMV inspection here in Oregon.I did add period correct Oregon plates to my 240Z while I had it. They weren't actually '71 vintage, the sequence I got was actually issued in early August '73. The same sequence was also correct for August '72. But they were close enough to look right on the car. I did keep them when I shipped the car off to Norway, just in case I get another pre-74 car in the future.

Yes, that's correct.

If I'm understanding the question, yes. No restrictions on those forums. But in my experience, many members never look at them, using shortcuts that take them directly to the forums they are interested in.

I know what you mean. I spent a week in the DC-area a few years ago, don't think I saw a single car or pickup more than 10 years old the entire week. Whereas back home, I routinely share the road during commute with numerous 20, 30 and 40 year old cars. Note that they don't just still exist out here, but they are still being used as daily drivers. '70's Chevy and Ford trucks are still small business workhorses here.

Burgundy 280ZX coupe heading West on West 11th Ave this morning.

Same as with Michael, I see the late models every day. I will only report S30s and S130s here.

I warned you. Zs are just not all that rare around here. I typically see them almost daily.

DGV's are OK carbs, but they have a reputation for being unfriendly to tune beyond bone stock, and not always the best for economy, either. I can't think of a single case where I'd prefer DGVs over a pair of roundtop SUs.

Went for a walk during lunch hour today. Spied this 240Z in a NW Eugene driveway.

Silver 280Z on Hwy 99 near Fairfield this morning. Nice sounding exhaust.

Mostly black Series 1 240Z sitting under a carport on Coburg Rd. (Been sitting unmoved for AT LEAST 15 years...)

Burgundy metallic 240Z with polished 5-spoke wheels on City View St.

Not around my part of the country. Stand by...

I'm with Bruce - I've never had long-term success rebuilding clutch hydraulics. By the time they fail, the cylinder bores are generally trash. I'd also recommend not trying to do only a piece at a time. Experience has also shown me that putting a nice, new master in with an old slave will generally lead to failure of the slave in short order. I'd recommend getting a new master, new slave, and a new pressure hose all at once. Do it once and be done with it.

Also while we're in here - ATF is too light weight, allows the piston to move too quickly. The factory called for straight 20 wt. oil, easily found at most motorcycle shops as fork/shock oil. ATF is closer to 5 wt.

I can't recall ever having to add to mine over 5 years unless I had them apart and dumped the old out.

Interesting. The 240Z isn't finished. No interior door panel, or rear cargo carpet/vinyl. Nice looking car, though.
