datto_240z

well.... I have taken a shine to the '83-'87 Honda Civic 3dr. I just love the shape. And I want to put a VTEC in one... little dream of mine, just like owning a Z :sleepy: Anyhoo, I also like R32 Skylines 2000-GTRs RX-7 Series8 RX-8 The new XR-8 GT([Aussie car]im not a big V8 buff) mostly any jap stuff, coz their quick :stupid:

Hiya's I was wondering if a S20 head would fit onto a L24 block. I dout it but anythings possible. Would it even work? (after putting in S20 cylenders etc. etc.) But ive heard that S20's are as rare as hens teeth in Australia. Cheers Chris Beattie

To anyone/everyone. Where have you seen a Z(pref. 240/432z/260/280) in a video game and don't say people's mods coz thats cheating! I'll start you off... Gran Turismo 2 (PS1): 240ZG, very hard to get. Auto Modellista (PS2): 432Z & 240ZG (can transplant a RB26DETT) into them!, then they REALLY go! I've seen them in other Jap games but I dont know the name.

Yip the elongated nose is the G-nose kit. Its an aftermarket bodykit for the 240z/260z (280zx? that would be different). The "radiator" you say, "under the front bumper" is probably an intercooler on a custom turbo job. The mirrors on the fendors are because its a Japanese car. Its legal to have mirrors like that there... Im not too sure, but its positivly a Jap thing. Donno If its legal in the USA though. and I cant see why they would relese a different model/spec Z just coz the mirrors are in a different spot.

well i saw the jeans in about July this year. I might try to find them again and buy them this time!!! They were on the discount table in a small West Aussie clothing shop called "Go West" so who knows? The 240z/e-type in Austin Powers 3 is on the street at night neer when that godzilla thing takes off... i think. something like that, you only see a glise of it though.

There's a 240z/260z side on, parked in Austin Powers Goldmember. Real nice clean one. A little off the subject but has anyone seen (maybe only in Australia) a pic of a modified crashed 240z rally car on a pair of "ECKO" jeans? I thought it was funny coz i told the "cool" people at school that there was a DATSUN on the same brand jeans they wore and didnt belive me. (they think all datsuns are old granny drivin bombs, how ignorant!) This is the pic of the crashed 240z. Its just got "ECKO" logos where the numbers are.

Are the 240z and 260z accesories (power steering, air-con etc) interchangeable. If this makes no sence to you, read on. Say I have a bog-standard 1970 240z and a bog-standard 260z. Can I pull the power steering unit or air-con unit off the 260z and put it in the 240z with ease? or will it be easyer to get a custom installation?

UNEQUE CARS SPRING 2003! This magazene is only $4 and has a great 4 page or so article about the zed in Australia. It also has a buyers guide to zeds and what to look out for. A must have!

I have been looking at some pics of 240zs (as you do) and realised there are 2 types. A all horizontal one(2) and a horizontal with small vertical bits(1). I have included a pic. Why is this. Im thinking the year released.

Hiya! Does anyone know where I can get a 240z shell for my 1/10 scale R.C car? I've e-mailed hobby shops but nothing. Any help would be appreciated!:stupid:

Hi, does anybody know if an L28 head and block fit straight onto the orginal 240z engine mounts? Does it need a different intake manifold if i wanna keep carberators coz the L28 engine was injected. I've seen it done but am unsure. I thought it would be cheaper than a full port and polish. :tapemouth
