sorry guys, I posted my add in December- all the parts you are looking for have been sold or discarded. Ron

Zachb55, our carbon dash is available, it comes with the center section where the heater controls go blocked off. Please feel free to email me with any additional questions. Ron

sorry those parts you requested have already been sold. If you can think of additional items let me know. Ron

Will, the simpson dash is cool in the velarossa cars, but may be no longer available. My understanding is that the company that manufactures that kit is up for sale...I hope I am wrong... Our dash prototype was at the ZFEST, and it was definately rough. We will be a the surfside datsun show in October with our finished carbon fiber dash.... Unique if you decide to upgrade your dash let me know.... thanks for the plug!!! Ron

This is a replacement dash for your 240, 260 or 280 Z. They are available in carbon fiber for $650 or fiberglass for $300.00 This dash is designed for aftermarket gauges. Look at my link posted below and tell me what you think! http://www.240z.org/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=1820

You could consider our Carbon Fiber dash that will never crack from sunlight? http://www.240z.org/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=1820 It's less than a new dash, 25+ lbs lighter and really great looking! Let me know what you think! Ron :stupid:

the 86 87 turbo had a clutch type limited slip or viscous limited slip. It is very different than the LSD that you refer to. Ron

guy geo, contact me at gretchencarter@cox.net and I can make some special arrangements for you..... carguyinok, this should clear a v8 and we can do one off solutions. we want to offer a v8 brace lets talk more. Ron

i will refer you to: http://www.240z.org/photopost/index.php?photo=1184 this lists the complete description and pricing...sorry for the mis-communication. i should have been more specific... ron

You can buy the motorsport bar but it does nothing but add weight to your car and look good. but it is cheap.... Or you can buy this bar. It's not cheap, but it is very effective. you can see more at: http://www.240z.org/photopost/index.php?user=932&thumb=1&cat=500 and: http://www.240z.org/photopost/index.php?photo=1184 let me know what you think. :stupid: Ron

I do know of a guy here in southern california with a torsen gleason 4.11 R-200 rear end that he may want to sell, he said he would give me the first shot at it...I will see if he is interested in selling it. Also, I have had to have my Diff rebuilt in my 93 300xz NA and it has an R-200 not an R-230...so building a torsen solution for a 300zx na might be an option as well. :stupid: Ron

great collection of pictures....I especially like the ones of our design.... As I found out, building your own strut bar can be expensive and time consuming..... I am not saying you can't build one, what I am saying is the work that goes into designing and building a bar far surpasses the cost of bars that are on the market.... Ron C :stupid:

Chris, I assume you asking about the installation of the support for the sway bar. In this case it is necessary to drill two 5/8 inch holes through the frame rails where the sway bar mounts to the body. The only thing holding the sway bar in place is a pair of tack welded bolts inside the frame rail. If you install a larger than stock sway bar eventually one of two things will happen: you will strip out the bolts or crack the frame rail. Our solution provides the following: a bottom sway bar mounting bracket, see photos... the top tube and plate (see photos) and 2 metal tubes that fit through the frame rail so that upon tightening the bolts through the frame rail, you tranfer the sway bar stress to the top tube, and do not crush the frame rail. This design eleimates the fatigue normally associated with the factory mount and will allow larger swaybar installations on a 240,260 or 260Z. I plan to add additional photos of this portion as you are not the first person to ask about this.... The rear tubes mount to the top lip of the hood cowl resting against the re-enforced section fo the firewall. Modification to the car is minimal with the exception of the factory sway bar locations...I hope this helps please let me know if you have any additional questions. Ron

this design was a modification of Mark Sayers original design....I had the test mule built and tested it for over a year....It works great! Removal of one bolt is all it takes to access your valve cover...I dont think I can make it any easier....if you have an alternate solution or suggestion let me know.... Ron;) the photo you see here shows the end with the nut, the other end has a grade 8 allen bolt.
