I had a Z before it was totaled and am still looking for anohter 1970 to 1973 240z. I wanted to know before I go ahead a buy another Z about swaping the engine out of it. I was wondering if an EFI engine would work in it, I don't want a small block v8 or a v6 in it. I want to go with 4 cyclinder, but one with a good amount of power. If I did, what thing would i have to do to it? I know i need something that could control the electronics without fully wiring up for the car, but I was also wondering if I used the engine out of a 1991-1995 MR2 turbo, how would I be able to get the transmission on the car to work properly. I was also wondering if the rear axle would hav…

I just picked up a 240Z which looked like it was in pretty good shape. I was told it had a blown head gasket but that wasn't true. Turns out the radiator has a couple of huge holes in it and a very loud rod knock. What can you expect for $600. Oh well, back to the question. Who has some good rebuild kits for these engines.

What's the difference??? (Between Z Models)

I'm new to the Z scene, and have been searching the internet without luck in looking for the differences between the z models, why one is better than the other, etc. All I have found is specifications, the fact that the 1978 280z is more luxurious, and that the 1973 240z is officially a classic.. (I think it was the 1973). Anyways the reason I am asking, is that I want to buy a z, and have been swinging between decisions on which model to buy. I have no clue why I should buy one over the other (differences in looks, handling, interior, etc.) Please help!!! Thanks for any help in advance.. Trevor

I am located in Ontario Canada. My buddy has located a 260Z 2+2 in the Gilroy CA(south of San Fran)area that he is interested in buying. We are wondering if we could find someone to look at this car for us. We need someone who has experience in these cars.

Hi All, I had been having trouble with too much travel on my brake pedal before the brakes would engage on my 70 240Z. After new pads, bleeding and no improvement, it was time to take them apart. What I discovered is that there is a plunger which goes from the brake boost into the Master Cylinder and it has an adjustment on the end. It is supposed to be adjusted out such that with the MB spacer plate on the booster the plunger sticks out 3.5 - 4.0 mm - mine was a cm too far in!! After making the necessary adjustment and putting it back together the brakes are fine... ------------------
