I just moved this thread to the PDX forum.

Yea, I'm up for a Z meeting in Portland somewhere. Just let me know! -- Mike

Also, try the links area. I am waiting for a rebuilt engine from ATK Engines at the moment. They should have a few more within the next month. Cost is around $1,800. [m]

Hmm... I'm 33, 0 kids, 0 wives, 0 girlfriends, 2 parrots, a '71 under restoration, a '75 parts car, 1 crotch rocket, and a house renovation project.

Hmm, yea I see what you mean. He must have just done a few changes and added text. Sorry for the mixup.... Nonetheless, both images look great and I give credit to BOTH of you. Feel free to contribute more works of art. I'd be glad to feature them on the main page. And, remember this site is free, so we aren't making money on your artwork. It's just there for other Z fanatics to enjoy! Thanks again.

Yea, I just noticed that today!! Awesome job noticing the details Keith!!

What are you talking about? The girls? That was a piece sent to us by our artist. Not to mention, the club is free (we don't charge for it). -- M

Excellent!! I actually considered putting a Skyline twin turbo in my Z. But, at this point I'll be happy to get it going again. [m]

This came through the mailing list. It should be posted here for someone who may need it.

Victor, what year did you replace? I'm thinking about doing this very same thing. Was it a simple plug-and-play install?

It's an easy job. Just disconnect the vacuum hose, electronics, and then the two bolts holding it in place down by the engine. I think they are 10 or 12mm bolts. You shouldn't have to mark it because the connection to the engine has an offset slot that makes it impossible to put it in backward. There is probably a gasket between the distributor and the mount-point on the engine, so, you might need to tap it from side-to-side to get it to break free.

And more...

These are great.

Just wondering what some of you consider your favorite part of the club site? I really like the random Zcars page. Every time I want a short burst of random Z's from our gallery, I just open that page and hit refresh every time I want more.

Salem isn't that far away....

Do the later 260z and 280z door seals fit the 240z? They are better design.

Ok, thanks for the explaination, Camo. I did get some feedback from the mailing list. Kmack sent this:

What do you mean one piece all the way around?

A long time ago (in a galaxy far, far away) I purchased a set of window & door seals from Performance Specalties. Since then I understand that they've greatly improved the kit. My main concern is the door seals. I've heard that the later-model door-seals have the metal clip part molded together with the rubber seal. The kit I have requires me to glue in the rubber piece and then snap the metal trim on top of it. WHAT A PAIN! Has anyone purchased a kit from Performance Specialties lately for an early-model Z ? Ie: 70 to 72 240z? And, does this kit come with the metal clip molded to the rubber seal? I understand that many shops are reselling the kits from PS, so, they might all be the same. I even hear that Nissan is selling the PS seals as their own now... Anyway, if you have made this purchase lately... speak up!! I'm about to make the purchase. But, I want the better seals. -- Mike

Guys, don't use this site to send information about somebody else. I deleted the post with his contact information.

I don't really like the look of the vents on earlier Z's.
