  1. Hmm, this quote makes me a bit skeptical... NEVER SEEN RAIN NOR WASHED WITH WATER!
  2. Here's a link to another Wikipedia page for the S30 specifically. Nissan S30 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  3. I was just browsing the Wikipedia Page about Nissan Z-Cars. From what I can tell we may need to get in there and help the authors a bit more. Any takers? If you quote other websites, such as ours, please be sure to include them in the list of references at the bottom. Here's a link: Nissan Z-car - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  4. Dave supplied me with a sample upgrade harness for my parking lights. Installation was a breeze and doesn't ruin the stock appearance of my car. I like the fact the harnesses are matching and I don't see a lot of spliced cables. I can tell there is a noticeable difference in the brightness of my lights with this harness. Dave went above and beyond with this project and it shows. PS: Motorsport Auto also gives discounts to club members so be sure to tell them you are a member of The Classic Zcar Club. If they ask for a membership number, you can see it in all of your posts (look to the left of my post here) or you can find it by clicking "My Profile" in the upper right of the website.
  5. Ha, yes these rules have changed quite a bit since 2001. 13 years of technology improvements and growth of the site, we can now allow much larger images and image types. I'll probably delete this thread. Thanks for bringing it to my attention Rick. PS: I just "unstuck" it so the thread should fall into the depths of time.
  6. Mike posted a topic in Video Center
    I realize this is a video showing a Mercedes, but, it got me thinking about my first Z. What do you think? Barn finds are a lot of work but very rewarding when you're done! <iframe src="//player.vimeo.com/video/93125699" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe> <p><a href="http://vimeo.com/93125699">Mercedes 190SL Barn Find</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/coolnvintage">Cool & Vintage</a> on <a href="https://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p>
  7. Mike replied to INST3D's topic in Open Discussions
    Hey INST3D, let me know what you would like to do with ZIP files on this site. I can increase the size of allowed uploads for you. I'd rather let you do this than use external links that will eventually expire. Regarding the model, it's looking very good!! I like the last image you posted with the real scene in the background. The model almost looks real enough you can touch it. UPDATE: I just checked the max size of a .ZIP file and it was set to 1MB. I increased this to 10MB to help offset this problem. Let me know if you can now upload. Thanks.
  8. I can't jack the front of my car because of my front spoiler. The problem is getting the jack far enough inside so I can use the long handle to pump the jack. I've resorted to using the stock body jack first and then sliding my jack far enough in so I can get to the center mount under the front cross member. If I had ramps it would be a heck of a lot easier. Only problem with ramps is that you cant remove the wheels. The race ramps seem pretty sweet.
  9. Anyone know who posted this over at DatsunClassifieds.com ?? Says this car has never been registered. Has a price tag of $100k but according to his description, is searching for good prices. Looks very clean. Never Licensed 1976 280 Z, 1976, $ 100,000.00
  10. Diseazed, please make sure the new owner knows about this site. Would love to see his story posted.
  11. Very nice car, I saved the source of this posting so it can be referenced later, even the images for reference.
  12. This is kinda fun, I like checking this thread every so often to see if the "mystery" O's have been solved. As far as my opinion, looks like a mouse or rat deposited these in the chamber for the winter. You can remove your fender to find out for sure.
  13. Gold? I wonder if they were spray painted. I wasn't able to look at them over the weekend but will try again when I'm near Seattle.
  14. Hey guys, I found some pretty cool classic wheels in the right bolt pattern. Owner days they are from a Datsun. I haven't seen these much, if any. Do you know where they originally came from?
  15. Selling everything I own and moving to Seattle to follow a woman. Holding on to the Z. Gonna be tough, somehow Seattle-ites think garages are optional around here.
  16. Jim, I know it's been a few years but how are the wheels from FutoFab treating you? Post a few pics if you get a chance, I'd love to see what you purchased. m
  17. Hi George, welcome to the club! It's good to see someone who used the classifieds to buy a car, yet to turn around and become another member! I'm glad to see the community is expanding to Greece, it would be fun to come and see the car and pay a visit one day. Hope you have a great time with the car and don't forget that you can post pictures and questions here anytime you need to. Enjoy. Mike
  18. Make sure you put this in the club event calendar here: Zcar Event Calendar If you do, it will have a permanent spot on the home page.
  19. Kats was there? Oh man now I'm even more sad I didn't make the show.
  20. Here's a link to our gallery where you can post your photos, even in bulk (zip file). 2014 National Z Convention - Classic Zcar Club Photo Gallery If you don't like the interface please let me know and I'll send you my address and you can send me a memory stick (or CD) with the images. FYI, the upload photo button is at the top menu bar. These photos will migrate when we launch our new site soon.
  21. He's got a number. Check his web page. Classic Datsun Motorsports It's a busy time this week as everyone is at the zcar convention.
  22. Any photos you can share? Would love some details on this one, or links if you've got 'em.
  23. There is quite a bit of hype around some photos we received from the Zcar Convention currently going on in San Diego, CA. The photos were of this cool little prototype car, a never released Zcar Wagon. While I genuinely thought they should have released the car and called it a Zagon, there are others who may not agree with the design styling. Here are some pretty neat photos from the Zcar Convention showing off this car at the NISMO booth. See it on our Facebook group page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/classiczcars
  24. Thanks, I was able to merge the threads.
