my 73 240z stripped of it's suspension and brake components. now awaiting the new stuff! i'm installing new bearings, seals, ball joints and tie rod ends. figured it made sense while in there anyway. -

i didn't make them, mike kelly from zf racing suspensions did. i just did the prep work to have them powder coated and then put them back together. do a search on hybridz.org and there's someone else making them as well. you could also check arizonazcar.com. -
i'll be using the 240sx rear calipers-which allow me to retain my e-brake. shown is the adaptor to mount the caliper with the new rotor-all from modern m'sports -
ross made up this set of cv adaptors, allowing me to convert from u-joints to cv's as well as upgrading from 240 to 280z stub axles. -
ross corrigan @modern m'sports brake upgrade-front vented 13" rotors, alum hats with alum floating calipers! -

i just received the following; modified adj. front control arms and t/c rods from mike kelly at zf racing and my big brake kit from ross corrigan at modern-motorsports! all i can say is WOW! just got the front suspension pieces back from powder coating and they look great. i'm looking forward to getting an alignment and being able to adj. camber and caster [in add to toe] on the front end-while on the car. still working on the rear control arms-ross said he has some in the works-hurry ross-summer's coming soon! from ross i ordered; big brake kit and the turbo cv adaptors. the machine work on the rotors, hats and rear caliper adaptors are very nice indeed. the front calipers are 13" directionally vented clamped by a floating 2 piston pbr alum caliper. the "hat" which allows the rotor to attach to the stock hub was anodized in red for me and it looks sweet! i figured that while i had everything torn down i should also upgrade the rear axles to the turbo cv's so i also purchased the adaptors from ross. the machine work and welds are beautiful-as well as functional. i was very impressed when i inventoried the box i received. i showed all the parts to a good friend who runs a local speed shop and he agreed that everything is top notch. for the rear i'll be using the 200sx calipers along with ross' adaptors as well as his ebrake piece.

i am parting out a 72 240. it is the victim of at least 1 ny winter and the rust is taking over. good news, only 56,xxx miles. mice moved in a few years ago while it was in a barn while the previous owner was working on other projects. they did some chewing-mostly at the extremedies-marker lights. anyway, the rest seems to be in pretty decent shape. i also have the dash harness as well. i'm not sure what it's worth or how long it would take me to remove it [or even if you need the whole thing or not]. let me know if you're interested. thanks, david

will do...

i have a friend here in upstate, ny who has one-still in the nissan box. it's funky looking, open on the sides and all. was supposed to be a fix for the vapor lock problem with the 73-early 74 hitatchi carbs. i don't believe anyone else sells that particular piece, as it's been out of circulation for a long time now. just available as nos-if anyone has one. if u r interested, i'd be happy to contact him for you-i think he'd want decent $ for it-he has a pretty good idea what it's worth. u can email me at work- david.a.palermo@aexp.com
