Would that hold up in the moisture and heat?

I don't think that will cause any problems functionally but I'd be afraid that more could break loose and have pieces rattling around inside the water pump area. If it were me, I'd find another front cover.

I was trying to figure that one out in post #12.....

A 76 gauge is not the same as a 78. Different font, different plug.

I'm thinking that member 'esprist' may have something to do with those.

That's as bad as my guess since that's fuel injection and the cable obviously goes to the single throttle body.

A 'pseudo masochist'? Would that be one who pretends to be masochistic but really isn't or one who inflicts false pain? LOLLOL

Although I don't see it in the pic, could it be some kind of 'drive by wire' setup like my GTO?

Welcome. Take it from a long time junkyarder. A good dash from the junkyard will be a tough if not impossible find.

You haven't got rid of this one yet?

I've also seen the Maisto 240Z in orange w/slot mags instead of hubcaps. Does yours have California plates on it (755 DAR)?

I actually gave away a couple of Datsun signs somewhat similar to those back in the 90s. They came from a dealership I once worked for briefly back in the 70s that had closed down sometime in the 80s. I carried them around with me for years and each time I moved, they ended up being stored in the 'new' garage. They were rather large and cumbersome. The idea of hanging them on the wall in the garage never really excited me all that much and what else would you do with them?

And they say there are no stupid questions......

And you're okay with that? If it were me I'd figure it out why it does that and fix it.....

True but his is a 280Z....

I don't know, Marty. I've been through both scenarios they are two different smells. On a car with a catalytic converter, the description "rather potent smell of sulfur (rotten egg type smell)" would lead me to Frank's conclusion....

I'm just sayin.......

As it's slowly self-destructing.......

You do realize that you're responding to a thread which was last responded to on 01-27-2002....?

Having a plate on and car and paying for them are two different things.......

Cool.

In reading the copy on the site, I don't see anything that indicates that they plan to make these with the correct bolt pattern for an S30. Other than the line: "can CNC drill for other applications". They seem to be making them for British Leyland cars. The custom drilling would likely raise the price beyond the stated $180 ea.

$3.00 for a screw that probably would cost less than 30 cents at a hardware store.
