Z-story exhaust on a stock 240
I have a vintage set of welded twice pipes that have glass packs near the transmission tunnel and they are way way too loud! Pulled them off and got the MSA exhaust system and am very happy with it. Anyone near Chicago interested in my twice pipes are welcome to them for $150. Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile

WTB a Used Rotisserie
Why not just build one? I spec'd out one made from 2 harbor freight engine stands and several pieces of square tube for less than $200. A used professional rotisserie will go for over $1000! Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile

Genuine Datsun 240z JDM/Euro Spoiler
Mine required quite a bit of sanding to make it sit flush against the decklid and the mounting bolts are not exactly lined up (each one is unique I believe). With that being said, its overall a great piece, much better than the cheapo's that you find on eBay.

Vapor lock questions for the hotter climate guys
Overall looks like an ok plug to me, maybe a little on the leaner side, but a lot of that has to do with the quality of fuel being used. What do you get in Panama? Is it leaded or unleaded? Is there any ethanol in it? Whats the octane? Are there any additives to the fuel in your country?

Rotisserie Mounting Points
I like the simpleness of the Redneck Rottissarie (wooden), although I'm not sure about its strength, I'd also like to be able to move the body outside to blast the bottom & then back in.

Factory fog/driving lights go off when the high beams go on. I believe this satisfies NTSA regulations Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile

Are Fog Lights illeal in Your Area?
I just mounted 100watt driving lights (8" round) on the front of my 240z and I only fire them up when there is no one around and it's super dark. On my xterra the fog lights default to on when the headlights go on, but they're low wattagr Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile

Fuel filler size differences?
That's what I was thinking, especially given that this was a Texas car for most of its life. So far so good on the gasoline smell problem. Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club

Fuel filler size differences?
So I just installed my new fuel filler neck with a genuine Nissan hose. The new one was significantly longer than the old one (3+ inches). The new one fits great, just curious if anyone has run into this before? I'm hoping this will resolve my gas smells as I've already replaced all the vent hoses!

SU Mixture Adjustment
On a related topic, I feel like I'm running very rich although as per the piston lift check mine seem be set correctly. I've been running premium 93+ octane and wondering if this could have something to do with my gaseous exhaust as the higher the octane the slower the Burn. I'm thinking of going to regular (87 octane) for my next tank. My question is -- can the wrong octane cause challenges with air/fuel mixture settings?? Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club

R180 Differential swap axle options in a 240Z
I'm about to dive into switching from my '72 R180 (3.36) to a 200sx K-R180 (4.11), requiring the button swap. Anyone have any spare buttons or a "bad" differential around that they want to get rid of? Part of me wants to keep my original 3.36 in one piece in case I ever want to hot-swap it back into the car for extended highway use. For anyone else looking to do this swap, I found a great video on YouTube, below, as well as a great write up on several sites (http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/49194-differential-cv-lsd-hp-torque-r160-r180-r200-r230-diff-mount/)
