Brisbane...40mm webber triples...
Includes linkages, manifold and 40MM WEBBER TRIPLES. The webbers were rebuilt for a very hot L24 motor including reground CAM, with the jets having been resized to suit, they would therefore be suitable for L26 and L28 powerplants aswell. These carbs are the perfect balance of underbonnet looks, sound and the best fuel consumption you can hope for in a daily driver running triples. A friend of mine has switched to EFI, hence the unfortunate sale. AUD $1200 OBO PHONE: 0403 21 6969:cry:

single inlet barbed + filter
Hey there Mike, this item seperated oil from air in the intake lines. most efficient on an intercooled car, it decreases the risk of a film of oil in the intercooler plumbing and the i'cooler itself. This inturn would otherwise have decreased the i'coolers capacity to cool air. Gav

Rust Replacement Parts
I don't do the crossmember. For the rust replacemet sections you need I have just dropped a quantity off to Allan Stean @ the Z car shop, so give him a call on 07 3808 2755. Were you interested in a vented or solid bonnet ? I'm abit unclear on what you mean by the nosecone. The gaurds are sold out, so I will have to lay some newby's up soon. I'm beggining to think there are a couple of zedophiles up on the range these day's You arent by any chance the proud new owner of a gold V6 powered turbo Z are you ? BBALLS

To get a new roof welded on shouldn't be too expensive - but If your panel guy isn't up to the task don't cut it off. Good morning from Brisvegas folks ! For me it all started about 5 years ago.Back then I honestly had trouble telling the difference between a 2 seater 240Z VS a 2 seater 260Z...oh ow times have changed. I was looking for a upgrade from my prestine but lazy 280ZX. So with a fistfull of cash I visited the Zed man. IT WAS LUST. A 1971 240Z, full sports exhaust, mags, L28, metallic green mmm she was fine !I had to wrestle with the owner, not because I couldn't settle on a price with him but because this particular car was parked in the wrecking section and the man was trying to save me money. Still, I knew better And after squarley shoving the cash under his nose the biatch was mine. IT WAS LUST... This car was perfection, the body lines, that burble coming from the exhaust...someone handme a cigarette. Finally this beauty was mine, I grabbed the keys told my brother to buckle up and hold real tight. In hind sight this would be a good thing. I eased the clutch in, the gear lever moving into gear with such reckless abandon. No cars coming - great slammed it into first the car, the wheels my smile, my brothers nails embedded in the dash - it all came to life....I had my first 240Z. On the first right turn The passenger side door flew open, Dave was almost forced to do a shoulder roll...it like many things I found out didn't work. A week later I had a date, a hot date. IT was a Friday night - I looked fine - I mean my game was tight. My next revelation wasn't learnt while driving, nor even cornering @ speed. It was while parked in traffic - it started to rain and leak right thru the closed sunroof - down my back. NOT HAPPY. Couple of other incidents left my zeale for the marque wettened to say the least. Like the time the wipers stopped working and my sister and I had to drive home in the blanketing rain with our heads out each window...my skin was the best it had been in a long time - it was radiant. For me though the final straw was when I tried to do something about it. The number of panel shops that laughed in my face saying " why would you bother - it's just an old Datsun", nup mate don't touch those things. Again in hindsight I should probably thanks those many many individuals that tried to talk me out of it, it was them that strengthened my resolve to achieve what I knew was possible with just a little persiverance. Needless to say I now avoid 240'z with sunroofs if a can avoid it. In a climate as humid as the one I find myself in, any part of the car below the roof simply rusts away in Brisbane - certainly not overnight but give it time, a hot date and a Friday evening parked in traffic. Come one gents holla back with your horror stories that make these cars so endearing. BBALLS

Sorry Vic, the best I can do is a pair brand new rear quarters and a new roof to suit the 240Z.

Hi from Brisbane - Australia all ! OwenK, humble apologies I'm rather new to the whole modified car scene. Firstly I'm South African so I'm still trying to get a grasp on the english language here in Australia. I've often found that there are inherent differences between the pronounciations and indeed the terminology used by the inhabitants of various continents. In future I will endeavour to get the wording of my posts correct as I'm quite embarrased by my last indescretion. As a display of my newly acquired applied learning. I have included an image of my latest project. The rear SPOILER incorporates a CARBON FIBRE "BLADE" adjustable from with the cabin while the front AIRDAM ( see insert) has just been butchered to receive the same treatment. Kind Regards BBALLS x3 240z'S Pictured = 1971 240Z, r200 LSD, MX7 5SPD, RB30, HYBRID T04 snail, ported\polished head, modified CAM, AVO intercooler, Pathfinder tailshaft, full custom hill climb suspension, willwood, brembo, momo, Recaro, Custom wheels from NZ, CARBON FIBRE BONNET, CARBON FIBRE GAURDS ...colour...blue

How many would you like? I am currently working on the section under the battery but the radius curve of the panel is proving to be a thorn in my side. Won't be long now though... Holla back !

Rust Replacement Parts
Hello from Brisbane all... I am currently trying to gauge whether or not there is enough interest in the fabrication of some replacement parts for the Z. If you havent already guessed my passion is for the old 2 seater Z's I currently fabricate the entire SILL area aswell as the FENDER BOTTOM for the front fenders and the INTERNAL HATCH area that runs above the rear tailights. But ... I am about to tackle the floors which as I"m sure you can imagine requires quite a degree of tooling. Is anyone outthere interested in a pair ? Also I have just finished my moulds for the FIBREGLASS BONNET, HATCH & FLARES, again these are available in CARBON FIBRE @ additional cost to the purchaser. I am currently working on a rather radically vented bonnet in fibreglass to ease my own underbonnet temps. 0403 21 6969

Hi from Brisbane all... To suit 240Z & 260Z. Mild to WILD. The smaller spoiler is more in keeping with the original body line of the car. (1.3KG). The larger spoiler has vents modified for more efficient ducting to the brakes (2.4 KG) PLEASE SEE ADDITIONAL IMAGES IN MY GALLERY. Also just added to my little collection are the front and rear BRE spoilers for the Z's. PLEASE NOTE - ALL OF THESE SPOILERS ARE AVAILABLE IN CARBON FIBRE @ AN ADDITIONAL COST TO THE PURCHASER...I have just finished a mould of the steering column shroud - they look quite trick in carbon.
