https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1973-datsun-240z-156/ Lime yellow 73 just went up.

Cool build! I considered that swap, but in the end kept the original motor and put ITB's on it. Health issues caused me to sell the car but to a friend, so I still get to visit! Will watch this thread with interest!

Oops not sure how I reposted hose pics!

Good friend of mine who helped put the ITB,S on it jumped at the chance to buy it! He's a great mechanic and is absolutely thrilled to own it!

Today is a hard day, saying goodbye to my beautiful 12/70 blue on blue Zed. It's been a great journey together, reliving my youth! 12 years of fun and adventure, even reliving my days of auto cross in parking lots around Kelowna B.C. This beauty won her class 2 years ago auto crossing at Castrol Raceway! The best part of owning this car was finding this great group of Datsun enthusiasts who are so willing to help anyone who shows an interest. I'll still lurk around this site, I'll live vicariously through all the great ownership stories and historical background that abounds here.

Very sad day, She was an amazing driver and seemed like such a fun and lovely person. She will be missed.

That's the ballast resistor.

It's a unit made by a guy in Australia, company is called One Six Industries.

Things I am tired of: US politics, Canadian politics, anti maskers, morons who can't understand basic instructions about how to register for vaccines( BC opened for first public vaccines today, 83,000 people eligible for the first phase, 1.7 million idiots jammed phone lines), Megxit, China. Things I am grateful for: Surviving lung cancer for over a year, my family, being part of a community of like minded enthusiasts who are nothing but helpful and supportive of each other!

Don't ever feel bad about reaching out! This Covid thing has been hard on everybody and just magnifies the difficulty of dealing with other issues. Just knowing someone is out there empathizing with you helps to strengthen you. Together we will get through this!

My son has a JDM S2000, loves it!

They're pretty exotic looking, I think they're selling at a premium, just saw one listed here for $134,000!!

380Z? Haven't heard of that!

Of course, the Datsun will be replaced by a more modern sports car, something we can take on a cross Canada drive and be comfortable. What would your choice be? I like the look of the C8!
