Non-greasable Nissan U-joints
I got Spicers from MSA about two years ago and they hare been great. The research I did at the time indicated that they were the best part available for my 240Z and since I will be autoxing the car that's what I went with.

Gasoline Prices, and your Z
My Z, my 4Runner, and my Silverado 1500 all get about the same gas mileage so it makes no difference what the price of gas does I still have to drive something. Great idea!!!!!!!!! You crack me up, just the thought of making my comute on a Vespa... LOL ROFL

Spicer U Joints For 240Z's
Thank you for the part numbers. I ordered a set from MSA a couple years ago for one of my half shafts.

Lug Nuts
I saw your post on another site and replied there, I'll post it here too though. I got mine about two years ago at Autozone, they had at least two different shank lengths to choose from. Give them a shot.

Mesh/Honeycomb Front Grill
Anyone looking for one whould QUICKLY see the classifieds at hybridz.org as there is one for sale there for $150. I'd have grabbed it except that the owner made a couple slight modifications which I do not want on mine...this is a new never used item according to the ad. Hurry!! And good luck.

Banzai Motorworks
Works just fine for me too.

New Z
I also agree, get the original engine and keep it with the car; even if you do not re-install it just hang on to it.

New Z
Maybe. This is about the time when some were sold as '70 and some as '71 as I recall.

How many people fit into a Z?
I've had 4 not-so-petite people in an S30 and driven around town bar hopping...with a full bladder and a knee in my gut! The was with all doors, hatch, and windows closed so there were no parts hanging out of the car...and nearly no room to move.

Early L24 parts value
Arne, I may be interested in some of these parts when you get the car...such as the valve cover, air box, etc. I can provide a list if you like and you can then send pix and prices back. Please PM or email me.

Forum etiquette suggestions
We can certainly be hard on people from time to time and there are a few people who do not appear to get along and others who may be considered irritating by some. I would have to agree that this site is still better than any other Z site on the web though. Don't believe that then visit zcar.com and you will see how childish people can really be.

Greetings Z fans

New guy from Canada
The question is what won't you learn here!! This site has some of the most helpful and knowledgable people of any Z car site out there! Welcome Sunroof....NO! Don't cut a hole in your Z's roof...as stated it is just one more place for water to leak in, and it will de-value your classic car. Just get a new headliner.
