  1. I put one of those 2 foot rubber ones on mine. It has a wing nut that loosens so it lays horizontal for the car cover and we have crap radio stations here. Bluetooth, paired with my phone's I Heart Radio is all I use. There's a lot of info on using weed eater cord to fix the mast going up and down if the motor still works. 130" cord is what I remember.

    Which ever one I can lock up. The 280 I have to crawl through the hatch but it locks up tight. 240 I'd have to sleep in LOL. The rods need bending I think, from all I've read. Or I could bring my Lab-Pit mix. He'd open the doors though to get out and roll over to get his balls scratched. I may get a room for me and the dog. If so it'll be the rougher interior 280. He's not allowed in my Camry or the 240. So most likely the 280, long story short answer. Budweiser!!!
  3. I have some that are at least quarter inch. You can have them if you want them Phillip. Cliff

    Thanks for all the replies gentleman! I run 87 octane with 10% ethanol normally. So me thinking is if I get them out once every 3 or 4 months and put 5 gallons of 93 octane that should keep the fuel "alive". Definitely going to put some MMO in with the next oil change, I read some good stuff on that this morning. It's so dad gum hot down here driving them is torture right now. I guess I'm just mad and bumping my gums but I've driven the 240 3 times this year and a big 0 for the 280. Like girls and everything else I get bored pretty quick. This forum has kept me interested and involved in Zs longer than most hobbies I've run through. Maybe Mike could build a forum for females and their difficulties, vice versa too girls.
  5. You can reuse the old ones if you can find all the pins. I think a 4 penny nail is what I pushed mine through with. One guy, can't remember who, said put panty hose over a vacuum nozzle and it'll catch them. I had to replace my 280s antenna a few years ago and was a scary pain in the but removing that panel. Bending it to get it out was nerve racking thinking it was about snap. Good luck. I hope your's is easier.
  6. Dealer available also, Nissan P/N 90909=E4100, non stocking but no fee overnight to the parts department. About a $1 each though.

    Sad to say my Zs are are very rarely driven anymore. More important things keep popping up, as they will never stop. 8^( Should I run some Seafoam through every so often? Any advice/experiences would be a great help. Thank you. Cliff
  8. These plugs are sooty?
  9. The old guy in the back is who I want to talk to anywhere I go.
  10. Yes, that's what mine look like. Hope that helps.
  11. After buying many parts I drove my 240 to show my parts guy. He was impressed even though it's not too impressive to me after seeing all the top shelf cars on here. Never the less I get a discount when I say "no, not 240sx".

    My choice and the best for my climate is...
  13. Mine are a "T" shape plastic. More like a bugle I guess? They are OE too.

    Those dome lights are available at dealerships for like $10. Good looking car though but that's house money down here. Small house but better than a mobile home.
  15. Kind of a thud at the end there. Filet Mignon, Ribeye, T-bone and then Sirloin.
  16. I have many times! As long as I do the research and give him the part number he's happy to do it. Usually I get them the next day. He even made up an account for me so I'll get a discount, "Cliff's Auto". Nice guy that respects the work I've done to my Zs. I also carry him lunch on Saturdays when he's there by himself. I don't what will happen when he retires?

    I've learned to never ever never asked a female when her baby's is due.
  18. I'm guessing he got it fixed? But I think the dark plugs are most likely the old ones from 4 turns down?
  19. How nice! Thank You Mr Arnett. Cliff
  20. Yep, only Japanese car too. There was a tricked out BMW with a roll cage and a door number, they were doing autocross racing in Birmingham. My Dad said they left out in stages, maybe 50 to a 100 at a time? It lasted from 9am until at least 3pm through my area. They were very nice to me in my little Datsun, a lot of thumbs up and smiles. Car people through and through. ?

    Fill it with nitrous oxide and I'd live in there, polishing between giggles and the choo choo train. 8^)
  22. Me too on the brass, they last longer. Jalex if you have upgraded to the E12-80 ZX dizzy they're a little bigger in size so don't forget that when ordering.
  23. I jumped in and rode with this rolling car show for an hour south then turned around and came back home. A whole bunch of American Hot Rods, and me. There was a BMW in the mix too. 6,000 cars from all up and down the East Coast. People were all over the sides of the road waving and taking pictures. It was pretty cool. http://www.hotrod.com/events/power-tour/

    I turn mine on first thing in the morning, my big dehumidifier, that's when it's the highest in my garage. Then I have a timer set to come on every four hours and run for an hour when it's really humid. The biggest help for me was to stuff towels on the top of my garage doors. That's where my outside entry was coming from, and my dogs flap door which I keep adjusted now so it hits and sticks to the magnetic strip on the bottom. I'm learning!

    I bought a gun safe dehumidifier for the inside of my 240Z. Works very well. For some reason my 280 seals up a lot better and has never gotten the light moldy looking spots on the door cards. They are inside though but might be of use to your situation? Walmart, https://www.walmart.com/ip/Remington-Mini-Dehumidifier/15729968
