Restoration of BringaTrailer 240z - HLS30-35883
What use has this "paintjob" ?? If the bolt has moved a 1/4 round.. no one could see that.. this totally misses the point of doing some paint on a bolt or nut.

Sorry if i sound a bit of a critic (a$$hole.. ) but i think you missed the resoning of the yellow paint on the bolts.. It needs to be just a little stripe of paint that indicates if a screw has come loose after some time.. not thowing a lot of paint on some screws..🙈 Just a stripe or a little blob.. It's function is that your sure you installed the bolt to specifications AND that you can see on a later inspection if anything has moved! I hope you can take my criticism.. lately more and more people 🙊 can't.. (I'm just here to learn some english and teach others some things in exchange. 😁)

I don't think you can just copy them out of stainless.. as there is some spring (Hardened?) steel In those anti-squeal shims.. (That's why they can rust a little bit) The anti-squael would not work..

1971 HLS30-14938 "Lily" build
Yes, it's bakelite.. sand some out of that hole in the ashtray, collect the material you sanded off and mix it with some polyester, use this to make the hole in the ashtray. Maybe you have something else made of black bakelite and use that to make the polyester black? Perhaps there is a kneadable substance that you can get black, or make with the bakelite. (I know of BISON has a kneadable 2 component material that gets very hard and is dark grey.

Did you also take the corners off of the pads in a 45 degree way? that stops most squealing..

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!

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?
