		E-tek RACING '71 Parts Car Resto
		
		I don't know what stuff I will ask. I do have great experience with Bison Polymax... Did a few spoilers with that in the past, and it's rock solid, they never came off, and I could even hang on it with full force.

		My Datsun 240Z
		
		So far things I need to do are torque everything on the front end down now it's on the wheels, and bleed the front brakes again. Then it can drive again. Engine runs fine now with the new waterpump. Alternator is giving a maximum of 15 volts @ the battery, is this okay or to high ? I am not sure. The condensator on the alternator is broken, I need to get a new one, or can I leave it out ? At least I can drive, but it would be nice if the diff from LeonV makes it to here.. and the part from Charles. W'll see. Meantime I managed to fix all the locks. The situation was I only got 1 key with the car from Stolze, and it didn't fit the other locks, now I took my rear hatch lock to a professional company in security and locks, and they made 2 new keys for the lock, and it now also works on the doors.. so the ignition lock must have been changed somewhere.

		Hi E-tek, I'm also planning of getting rid of the sunroof, a bodyshop told me that there's no welding required, the will cut a metal plate to the shape with a little overlap and use some kind of superglue, it's the same strength they claim as welding. It's glued underneath from the inside, the rest is filled with bondo. Bart.

		I have managed to find another axle closer to home, but I still need the differential from Leon, those are just to expensive here ! I'll wait and see when it's here. Charles I will use your part for spare !

		I tried what Carl said, cut in half, but still won't come off, I tried everything.. torches... hammers...pullers.. grinders.. f_cking thing is welded to the damn axle ! Charles I send you PM .. if you can send it to there would be nice ! I will pay you for the costs don't worry. @ Carl: allready pulled everything from under the car... so it's easier to replace with a good axle now..

		One side done, torqued the wheel bearings down the factory specs according to the FSM. Will torque all the bolts from the suspension down when the car is under load on the ground, now they are just hand tight. The other side I can't finish, because the outer wheel bearing is molted to the damn axle ! I need to get a new axle first The horror:

		Slammed 260z from Holland
		
		Not my cup of tea either, but it's something different he is doing. I have to note on the stretched tire, that this is actually dangerous. Since the tire's wall is stretched outside it's dimensions, and this causes a weakness into the tire.

		Engine will only run above 4000 RPM. Carbs or timing?
		
		If the distributor is one tooth of, it should still idle and run.. or was it not assembled properly ?
