for track use, do you think the toyo proxes are better than the kumho V700 victoracer or new Ecsta V700? -james

the stuff leaking out might be synthetic. its a welded diff (spool). is it OK to use mobil 1 synthetic differential oil? 73 240Z. thanks! -james PS while im at it, how hard is it to remove the rear cover and replace the seal? ive rebuilt a couple of ford 8.8 LSD's in the cars so im familiar with the process.

there were two vents per side in the front.. one of them pointed right at the caliper where the brake line enters. now i know why! -james

porterfield makes a bunch of different pads. these came in the box of spares so that why i am using them. fortunately, the rotors look new. ill check out the bleeding instructions. why so much bleeding required? is there something about the construction of the brake system? thanks! -james

i just put a set of porterfield R4 pads on my ITS 1973 240z. the old pads were sort of glued on with this purple stuff. what is it and do i need i on my new pads? the caliper was quite different than on my other cars. no shims or springs, just those bars held in with the hairpin clips. thanks, -james

thanks for the great pic! whats a good book about carb tuning for that car? ive had EFI cars lately and never learned much about dual carbs. -james 73 240z ITS 65 FFR cobra thevenom.net

for a nice 240 you will be paying a slight premium for the 'classic car' status that comes with it. you can get it back when you sell it, of course. -james 65 FFR cobra 73 240z thevenom.net

thanks, (the rear diff is welded BTW) -james

i was told that because it runs rich, it can foul the plugs. i popped them in today and it seems to run less smooth below 3K RPM. -james

any place of common failure to look? im new to z cars so hoping i can get some likely places to start to look. apparently they worked within the last year. thanks, -james

anything to watch out for? done LOTS of pads, but its been a while since ive owned a car with rear drums. its a fully prepped 73 240Z ITS road race car, if it matters. thanks, -james

my ITS 73 240Z came with both. the race floats look like the needle is shaved. whats the difference? and why use the street floats at all? new to z cars. thanks, -james

vic is selling his Z (two time solo II BSP national championship car). i raced in his class last season and that car is fast. beat him only once, and often a second back, even in my fast car. -james

bay area, california. just want a passenger seat of any type for my 73 240z SCCA-ITS road race car. thanks, -james
