    Watanabes arrived. 15 X 7.5 with +8.5 offset...205 60 15 tires... Fronts rub on spring perch. Ugh.
  7. ABCar replied to ABCar's topic in Wheels & Brakes
    Thanks for all the responses...Watanabes it will be 15 X 7.5 with a +8.5 offset. Updates in a few "years" when they arrive!

    Okay, I wonder if that same size on a stock 240 like mine would work...is there any difference in clearances in a 280?
  9. ABCar replied to ABCar's topic in Wheels & Brakes
    Those look great...do you know the size and offset?
  10. ABCar replied to ABCar's topic in Wheels & Brakes
    Thanks I have 7.5" slotted mags now and they rub in the rear ever so slightly on the fender lip...but I do not know the offset. Anybody else have the wheel size in question?
  11. I am looking at some Watanabes 15 X 7.5 with a +8 offset. I have a totally stock 73 240Z and wonder if this would rub on the wheels wells/fenders? My other choice is a nice Panasport 15 X 7 with 0 offset. Any help? thanks.
  12. Thanks for the tips guys...head is having repair locally...will re-assemble myself.
  13. Stock. I know, everything is in CA
  14. I have talked to Dave at Rebello...great guy. Was hoping to do something local but thanks!
  15. Can someone help me locate a mechanic in the great lakes or midwest area for help with an engine rebuild? I am in Michigan but am willing to travel a bit for the right shop. Thanks

  17. Looking for some advice on installing the rear main seal. I know Nissan has a special tool listed in the service manual. What is the best way if any, to install the RMS without this tool? Thanks
  18. Rob, I am kind of in the same boat. I changed out the master but am now looking at the booster with suspicion...there was seepage between the master and the booster and a lot of corrosion on the booster. Did you have warning that your booster was going or was it sudden failure?
  19. A longshot, but never hurts to ask! Please let me know if you have one or both of these items that are half decent at a fair price. Thanks!
  20. I have a 73 with all the original emissions still on. Is there a reason to leave on or remove? Opinions welcomed. thanks, Andy

    Weather was 75 ish steady Interstate. It was 515 degrees f inside my head. ; I will check the water pump. I doubt it is radiator because it is near new I think...will still check of course Car coming home this week...will diagnose and post final results. Thanks all for your input. This is a good forum from what I can see so far.
  22. Thanks Mike. Bring a trailer.

    Thanks for the reference too. I am on the other side of the state...Kalamazoo.

    No Birds or bags. Something "changed" I watched that gauge like a hawk because I did not know the car. It was planted in the middle like a rock...then at about two hours it went up to ~240 and stayed. I would park and let it cool off...and even bled out some steam through the pressure release cap...and it would start stay cool for a short time...then like clockwork...would work its way up again. I did this about three times and gave up. Luckily a friend picked me up in his plane and flew me back.
  25. Thanks! So far, looks like a great and supportive site.
