  1. I think Courtesy Nissan is the only place that has the FSM CDs.
  2. I tried to ask for the "240Z-club discount" when ordering from Courtesy Nissan, and the guy told me there's no discounts- everything is already priced for online buyers. OTC buyers pay 15% more. So don't bother asking for a club discount.
  3. I thought you would just have to change the gears for 3rd to the new sizes.:disappoin
  4. It's Hydraulic and would require mods to the car to fit.
  5. referring to the 3N71B transmission, would it be possible to change the gearing for 3rd gear to something like .75, which would be the overdrive from the 4N71B? thx
  6. If you are used to the old-style seats, you remember what SEAT BELTS are really for. To hold you from sliding off the seat! I got used to using them so I still use them. So, can we get somebody to volunteer to put together a list of seats that will fit a Z, with the different levels of mods?
  7. I'm with Vicky, if you wanteds to keep the stock look, then while you're spending money, just have the stock seats bolstered with some extra foam.
  8. Try this! http://home.tampabay.rr.com/dutch/platez/ (dialup beware) enjoy
  9. So then use both. The coffee filter for the coarse particles, and the milk filter for the fine partcles.

    Tires: smear lightly with lanolin so they don't dry out, then store in a trash bag. Battery: The cold won't hurt, but HEAT will. Storing on the concrete is OK, but if the acid leaks ( non-sealed batteries) you get pitting. That's why you don't store on the concrete!
  11. I use coffee filters for that stuff. I filter gasoline with them too. You should see what's in your gas.
  12. Somebody wanted to put Mr. K's signature on his dash, so go click this link: http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=9985
  13. You sure that wasan't some kind of crystal DRAIN-O? That stuff is supposed to be really caustic, I think.
  14. What kind of stuff is out there to make yourself a system to hot tank parts at home? the wire wheel just doesn't get into the little spots on those old, painted, and rusty parts! thx
  15. Just check my photo gallery or web site.
  16. Is that only for show cars? My plan is to do some mechanical restoration (obviously), the GTO body kit, and maybe in the end, engine rebuild with trans swap. Also, I would upgrade the interior with period-correct materials & looks for a late 60's enzo. Just got the liability for now, so i can drive from service station to body shop thx
  17. Isn't that where most of it is? Engine, trans, seats, dash, carpets, fenders.....
  18. I think I will look into getting that engaved into a placard for the dash.Maybe even some vinyl. Stick that you ricers!!!
  19. Is this the guy? http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=9985
  20. Mr. Spock would say,"there is no LOGIC in luck." aAgent Scully would say, " explain the SCIENCE of luck." -Spock out.
  21. I guess some people have all the bad luck, huh?
  22. That's how I see it. the PU bushing is so firm, it would be like a solid metal block, so the tension rod HAS TO BEND with the up/down of the wheel. The flexing stresses the weakest part, the stepped/threaded end,and after so many flexes, it breaks. So you put in the softer rubber bushes to absorb & allow the flexes. Just remember to buy extra sets, so you can replace them after so many years, in case they will be NLA...:disappoin
  23. the same people have lots of money to afford reinforced ( as in bricks & lumber), enclosed storage. What's so bad about a steel building, steel garage or modern "pole barn"?
  24. Is there an advantage to having your Zed as a second car on your primary insurance (for the daily driver)? I know I got a discount because I use the same ins. provider as my mom & dad's vehicles (multicar discount).
  25. My problem is that I don't have a garage for storage, so mine sits in the driveway in front of the house. Usually with the cover on.
