Header Fitment Issue - What to Grind
Are they aluminum or some type of steel? I ask because I had to grind my ceramic 6to1 where the 6 met into 1 and rubbed the bell housing. I've checked it many times usually when changing out the oil and there's still a nice clean cut. No rust after 6 or 7 years?

Carbon on garage floor?
I think it's the unrestricted exhaust, ie no catalytic converter. My souped up road race bike did it also. Straight exhaust with a small can on the rear.

Carbon on garage floor?
I have those same spatters on my garage doors and both my Zs have fresh motors. It's exhaust condensation I guess. It is normal for mine. Is this a new thing for your car? Edit... Edit#2 I have MSA 6to1 headers and their 2.5" exhaust on both cars. They push a lot of air, hence my spattering on the doors not the floor. https://www.google.com/search?client=ms-android-americamovil-us-revc&source=android-home&source=hp&ei=OA_PXKOBFMmEtQWb87e4CA&q=exhaust+condensation&oq=exhaust+condensation+&gs_l=mobile-gws-wiz-hp.1.1.0j0i22i30l3j0i22i10i30j0i22i30l3.2489.10845..13757...0.0..0.192.1925.1j14....2..0....1.......8..41j0i131j46i131j0i10.0uA6v8uPSdw

Custom Shift Knob
A dip into some good urethane would really bring out the color I think. Looks good as is too.

Only thing I noticed was braided hoses in some pictures and slick rubber in some others. I guess some photos were from 12 years ago?

Your right, the screwdriver poppers haven't found it. Glass looks good, that's an easy double your money buy. Get it Zed! Come over to the "tin can side". We're going to the moon wearing Reynolds aluminum foil wrap.- Exporting a U.S. 240z to France/Europe

@Lazeum I can't get to the members map from my phone? but see if you can and see the other French owners. They can tell you.- [SOLD] $1500 240...Not mine
I think you could claim it as the last $1,500 240Z and hang it from the ceiling like a pinata.- Air Filter Housing??
Okay I'm sorry. We are talking about a specific air filter. Please don't change the original question. Thanks- Air Filter Housing??
I don't know! I'm sorry for that too. What I'm remembering, at the moment, is @jalexquijano found that somewhere on the internet for the fuel rail. He has some hot restart issues. Could be an old Redline "Datsun" cover? Looks similar to the milling and filter material on some triple 40 webers I had. When I get back to my lap top I'll dig further. Does this look familiar @Zedyone_kenobi?- Restoration of my 72 240Z

It would be hard to make one look as good as your's Chas. OP, I've done my front bumper but the rear is gonna be a bite that I'm not take. It's a lot harder than the front so I told myself I needed the protection of the rear bumper. There's some dipstick driver's around here. 240 bumpers on a 280 look fantastic without the cost of a 240, better ride too.- 280Z - L28 Engine & Trans on CL

A turbo ZX with an automatic was fun back then but I hated the n/a autos. They were 1, 2 and D but the speed limit was 55 mph. ,- We're bringin' back the Flat Tops!
Those things work great. They do look like they'd be easy to make the only thing is that plastic collar's size. The other screw just has a piece of clear tubing on it. https://zcardepot.com/products/choke-lever-mounting-plate-reinforcement-240z- Transmission Swap?
Here's some good threads on doing that.
