LA car????? i've only seen rust like that in coastal towns that have lots of salt spray. Me thinks its an upstate new york special and the ad is a prank.

If i were buying your car and using it as my daily driver or weekend cruiser, I would want a spare tire well. Do they make fuel cells that don't require the spare tire well being cut out? The frame strenghtening im ok with because i would know that the car was previously raced but there may be buyers out there that may be sucpicious that it was used to cover a buckled frame rail or a rusty frame. Perhaps take before and after pics to prove your modification was for racing purposes?

you have to do your own homework on this one. get the vin# and use this free service to see if its stolen https://www.nicb.org/theft_and_fraud_awareness/vincheck then check the vehicle history for liens 4.95 for this service http://www.vehiclehistory.gov/ if the car has calif plates a person with calif DL can register as a user at this website. You can check the complete vehicle history here https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/detail/online/vrr I wish they had this service when i lived in calif. 2$ fee This is a great tool to use when researching vehicle history if you want to track down the previous owners of a car and ask them questions on the car. if all checks out that could be a very cheap 240 s30 driver did you see the car yet?

Mine is black with panasports. You should see my commute. I have to slap myself sometimes. Very few places on this planet you can see whales jumping out of bright blue water on your way to work in the winter. Did you see all the private jets parked at the airport? Man the economy must be improving bigtime. As far as collectible datsuns here on this island... I once saw a very pristine early 70's skyline come out of that ultra rich enclave of Hualalai resort. The baby boomers are retiring in droves and the ones that have the cash will pay a good price. The best retirement savings plan is buying NOS parts and good cars. I would be shocked though if a 240z is ever worth 50k unrestored. If i were in the market for a 40k$ 240z, i'de import a ZG from japan

oh man i'de buy that in a heartbeat if i was closer. ah sometimes it sucks to be out in the middle of nowhere.

They pay about 350 bucks in japan for a good quality reproduction so 400 isn't too far off http://page15.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/t407923015 you want absurd price? how about a 3400 dollar valve cover https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fpage9.auctions.yahoo.co.jp%2Fjp%2Fauction%2Fk164838394 Or this NOS ps30 ,z432R lock for over 500 bucks http://page7.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/g139288427

Hey i live here and i've never seen the lime green z. I think i know the orange one you're talking about. It belongs to an older gentlelman that works at the costco gas station. He bought it new and he always asks me questions about mine when i gas up in my z. If you look at the people who are bidding on the car, there is one guy with zero feedback. When i see stuff like that i think scam. the last legitimate looking bidder stopped at 37k.

Almost had wreck #2 but he went into the grass. Do you think it had a fuel cell or a stock gas tank?

anyone done the aux in mod to their later model clarion/hitachi radio? this radio is from a 78 i was thinking of using the stereo signal switch on the front of the radio as my radio power switch to toggle between aux and radio. i wonder if that switch can handle the load and or possible arching?

try these guys http://www.partsfornissans.com/oe-nissan/32354e9804

That looks damn good. Personally I don't like 280's without bumpers they look unfinished to me. These give your car the classy factory finished look. You know what would make that back end even better looking is a 1 piece bre style spoiler.

errr... i meant insides of a rally clock oscillator. Anyways....ran across this page in japan. this guy is an electronics guru that fixed an oscillator. I had never seen the insides of one before but there sure are alot of things that can go wrong. No wonder they use so much juice. with no schematics to work with he succeeded in finding what was wrong. a burned out transistor. http://blog.goo.ne.jp/vrc-tezuka/e/250f389a49a12a856565a0c7e324e2f0 and another page where a guy took a 9$ clock and put it inside his calendar clock https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fminkara.carview.co.jp%2Fen%2Fuserid%2F1773801%2Fblog%2F33293852%2F&edit-text=&act=url

How the heck can someone track down a car in another state and was sold over 20 years ago? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4HIFrLMVbk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UK7MAZj86LE

yea but a nice zg there is worth a prettier penny

Interesting way to fold the tops of the rails back into position. You would think it would just smash in the rail but once you remove the radiator support, the rails are very flexible. Very simple fabricated radiator support he made. Probably stronger than the swiss cheese factory one. That looks like a rust free fairlady. Over there they're worth lots more so expensive frame machine time is worth it.

can you rechrome radio faceplates? i mean the chrome lettering on them.

tolerances are usually given in our numbers and metric. no translation for those needed. BUT... is that 170 canadian dollars? I oughta buy a bunch and bring em back when i go to japan in april. its only 10 bucks over on amazon.co.jp http://www.amazon.co.jp/NISSAN%E3%80%8CL6-ENGINE-TUNING%E3%80%8D-engine-%E3%83%A0%E3%83%83%E3%82%AF%E3%82%B7%E3%83%AA%E3%83%BC%E3%82%BA-ebook/dp/B00J7XJANY/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1418877732&sr=1-2&keywords=L6 edit: thats the kindle price. thought it was the hardcopy.

This 240 is a better deal than that beverly hillbilly's one. Look at the attention to detail on this one. It looks like one of those factory restored ones from the 90's. BUT... check out the funky clamps on the a/c dryer.

the aluminum air batteries need to be changed yearly according to the article. that could get expensive. notice it gives no approximate replacement cost. i love the idea using 2 types of batteries. one a workhorse and the other reserve.

very angry man destroying his car. Is that a Yugo? or should it be named "man wrestles with car" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AkoHH7gxlA

Huh?

hey i'm still paying 4.99 for diesel and 4.21 for unleaded in hawaii. I heard it was under 2 bucks in oklahoma

That doesn't look stock. He calls the original flat top su's `euro dual carbs` He's got a lot of inaccurate things in that listing.

he is the first one i tried. No have
