Colorado snow... uhh ohh!
Would it be beneficial to get a cover or something? I'm sure the snow can't be doing any good.

Restoring 240Z Steering Wheels
He was the interior designer - I think you are correct Carl. I seem to remember Kats saying that it was a very new process and something the team was proud of. Real wood combined with "fake wood" (resin, plastic whatever) on the outside. That's what I remember, who wants to find the thread!

My problem - odd nuts!
Michael, they will both fit (eight of each), but I don't want to find (and carry around) an extra lugnut wrench thing.

Im in the market for a C110 Coupe!
Good stuff! So you're only after a Hardtop, no sedan. Manual or Auto? What kind of condition are you looking for? I'll keep an eye out

My problem - odd nuts!
You are probably correct, but it was easier to measure the side... naturally if each side is longer the total diameter will be too! Yes, P for pitch. I could see how the drawing could be misguiding.

Aircraft Edition 280ZX
I've never heard of such a thing but... "Let me start this out with saying that I am not going to pretend to know anything about cars"

Is the 240z right for me?
EDIT: Carl pipped me at the post! But we said basically the same thing anyway. Just because you crashed doesn't mean you are ready for a quick car. It means you are ready to take a defensive driving course (note: not an advanced driving course). As for Z's, to keep them in good shape you will have to spend money on them. The Eclipse probably started first time every time - The Z wont. People like to say they're reliable, but compared to modern cars they are not. Mechanical parts are reasonably cheap though, just don't lose your hub caps or get rear-ended. BUT if you are willing to spend the time and money on one, go for it. Much more fun than an Eclipse, sexier, more raw, and something a bit different too. Just make sure you buy the BEST looking car you can, as it's likely to be more reliable and cause less headaches. For more info about what to look for, search the forums. There is heaps of the stuff.

Questions Regarding RB26DETT Tranny
I guess he could be referring to the older RB26 gearboxes, which were 5-speed too?

JDM Horn Button?
The JDM S30 was a Nissan..... as far as I know the steering wheels had a "Z" in the centre, the early ones at least. Re-read your post: Sorry! Hmm, maybe the domestic cars had no "stitching"? I can't imagine so though.. Alan will know.

Sagamiko meeting 2004
ROFL Now, I dont think the twins were quite that bad!! That is fantastic, reminds me of a recent incident here, where a guy was caught carrying 4 birds (rare cockatiels or something) at an airport ... in his underwear! He was apparently trying to get them out of the country illegally to sell in Asia. I wonder if those birds prefer seeds or nuts??

Sagamiko 2004-034R
Alfadog commented on HS30-H's comment on a gallery image in 04 Sagamiko meeting - Club S30 & S30 Owners Club of JapanHmm, how much weight could that save? Or perhaps the purpose is different? I am confused, why else would you use carbon fibre? (strength?)

First colour
This looks like a very interesting colour - metallic mustard? Almost looks like brass. Where is it from?

Alfadog commented on HS30-H's comment on a gallery image in 04 Sagamiko meeting - Club S30 & S30 Owners Club of JapanHow original can you get! Alan, was the ZG the only model to come out of the factory with black windscreen wipers?
