Still struggling with car at idle after 8 years
Hahaha, perfect man you are.. in your own topic on page 37 I SAID: THIS : But your topic is now so damn big you don't know yourself what everybody said! I don't know .. but it sure makes ME Twitchy!! 😁 (Yeah i know it's only me that does not like pertronix under the hood! The only place for it is in the BIN!) Patcon and Mark Maras 2 But stop with this STUPID Behavior! It's very ANNOYING and it helps NO one!

Still struggling with car at idle after 8 years
Are you sure you sent that to the right person? 🤣 (just kidding!) About 8 years ago or so i forgot my username and typed martzedcars (as that is a name i use here in my country for mail) but it should have been the dutchzcarguy and now in one of my topic's about my 280zx is that name still visable.. what i mean to tell is.. it was years ago also possible to use another name. (Also i remember i read something about changing the username only once, so you have max 2 names.. that went out of the window when i saw "someone" here used a 3th name.. anyway.. things change over time i guess.. Or.. i think it has to do with the fact that he has moved to another country and has now another computer-adress. (IP-adress) and that makes it easy to change name(s).. )

SU Carb Choke Cable Adjustment
Changing your name on this topic/site isn't gonna help "Johnny" .. time after time people helped you and said the engine needs to come apart and then you ask questions in a different way but essentually the same questions.. the engine isn't gonna fix itself.. I don't want to gravel/irritate you.. but you need to listen to the advice! I'm not going to waste more time on this..

SU Carb Choke Cable Adjustment
Some people are technical, and some are totally not.. i'm very sorry but i think you belong to the last catagory.. you must be a good bookkeeper though.. Again i'm sorry but someone needs to tell you to look for another hobby.. you don't have any technical insights.. And YES, I'm Dutch! We tell it strait to you.. in your face, we don't beat around the bush! 😉 (We can answer only that much questions..) AGAIN, I'm SORRY!

Restoration of BringaTrailer 240z - HLS30-35883
I think you scored the right paint.. the old bolt with orig. paint is old AND dirty.. so the new paint looks good for it's job.

Datsun 240z 1971 (feb) windscreen wiper mechanism parts?
Hi Guys, Yesterday on a drive (Fast one!) on the German Highway i noticed That my windscreenwipers where all over the place.. They went off the screen when the wind was blowing them that way and didn't stop in the low position but a bit higher.. Now i used the search button (everywhere and topic ) But nothing came up ???? I find that strange.. Anyway.. is there a source for new parts for the windscreenwiper mechanism, i think there are plastic parts inthere that need to be replaced after 54 years? hahaha.. Also the elec. motor and gearmechanism could use some fresh grease i think.. is there a topic on this?

New Source For S30 Door Seals
You receive those from the Netherlands? They look original.. I got in the late 90's a orig. set from nissan and they are exactly the same.. now on my 240z for 0ver 25 years! Still working perfect. Nice to now where i can get a new set if necessary, CLOSE to home! 😀

Finally getting around to it - '71 series I
There IS a rubber there if you have a euro 1972 car with the metall headlight buckets! (I guess the usa type of 1972 and later had them too?) Maybe the early ones with the "plastic" buckets didn't have/need them?

1971 HLS30-14938 "Lily" build
Yeah that must be frustrating.. i didn't do that a single time with the restore from my 280zx... i drove home after the MOT (APK overhere) and drove very carefully.. i was afraid i hit the carport so i drove it more to one side.. the side the goldwing was standing... i put a dent in my 280 with the chrome bumpers of the cases on the goldwing! Pfff.. sigh.. 😀 You had to take out the headlights.. that was easy.. my 280zx .. i bought it with a 2nd windscreen in it.. it had a little crack in the window.. nothing bad.. repair it later after reinstall.. later i saw that it had split the window while in storage.. (2) then i bought one second hand, the girlfriend of my first painter broke it while cleaning her house but said later i have never seen a windscreen here (I can show you the date i brought it to them in my log! (3) then i installed a new one and a college from the painter just let it hit the cowl somewhere i had not seen it but when installed it splitted on any points in the left down corner! (4) !! So... my 280zx has it's 5th !! windscreen.. and.. if someone try's to brake it i'm losing it.. i probably get my hunting rifle out and.... you guessed it!! So don't be annoid/ frustrated.. it comes with the trade.. Oh.. and Please!! ...clean that valvecover.. it looks like a turd in that beautiful enginecompartment!!!!!

Restoration of BringaTrailer 240z - HLS30-35883
Do i see a orange on your license plate? And is the feb26 for roadtax? In our country the roadtax is zero euro when the car is over 40 years old.. In Germany it's 30 years taxfree.. Crazy! (Talking about ONE euro.. pfff) How much roadtax do you pay for a oldtimer in the states and is it everywhere in all the states the same (.. i asked myself..) ? BTW, your car turned out BEAUTIFUL, hope you will have a long time a LOT of fun with it! (I would have made it exactly the same but in "euro land" the extra 2 bumpers on the bumpers are not standard.. i would leave them off, it's only unnecessary weight!) Again: WELL Done!

Cast Iron and Steel brake drums from Motorsport
I've got some Nissan orig. brakedrums bought from someone years ago and he said they came from a TVR rear axle.. Only he had to make the 4 wheelstud holes a bit bigger.. i bought them anyway as they where then already very scarse.. I only need to put a little ring in the holes to use them again on a s30 nissan! What kind of TVR these drums also used is not known.. But someone could investigate. He said they fitted good only the 4 wheelstuds/bolts where bigger on a TVR.
