24OZ

You hit the nail on the head there. Here here!

Get them from England much, much cheaper. Here are a few links to specialists which dismantle 240Z's. I doubt postage will be that much. Auto Active http://www.autoactive.0catch.com/ ZXtra http://www.zxtra.co.uk/

Huhh!!! Well, if the original box isn't in very good shape then i'm not interested!:mad: !! Glad you found it! It'll look great on. You don't happen to have a spare do you? I'll get my coat..

Check out the reviews section of this site and you'll see a book called Datsun 240Z & 260Z Gold Portfolio 1970-1978.

He he... Yes very true. The Z32 TT's in Japan were still called Fairlady's, carrying on the tradition.

Been doing a bit of Z reading up lately (I am a Z anorak, I know ) on different performance upgrades that specialists have offered for our Z's. Stumbled on 1 company called Cartech in the US, apparently they offer/offered (not sure if they still do it) an L28 conversion which featured twin turbochargers feeding a plenum chamber that formed the airbox for three choke Mikuni Carbs. Anyone else heard of them?? Anyone else got this setup?? Anyone got any links with more info?? Power is reputed to be in the 350bhp region. Why haven't we all got this? Janspeed offered a conversion featuring a Roto-Master Turbo. Standard FI was retained with two extra fuel injectors added to the inlet manifold to prevent lean running when on boost. Output about 175bhp. Interesting...... George.

That made me laugh I am so like that. My mobile is the size of a brick. My computer is a classic and I still play vinyl records! I did have an abacus but now have upgraded to a calculator. Glad to hear someone else is like me Here's hoping someone can help us out.

Hi ZmeFLY, I have the same problem. I don't understand how to attach an image. The only way i can show a pic is to link to it. Mike - Pls explain how the attach button works in a post. i thought it was simple until i tried it . I have pics to post! Thanks.

Mike, Take a look at this company, they've been making wheel's since the 1960's, they have got quite a following over here in the UK. I've seen many a 240, 260Z with these wheels. It'll give you an idea at least as to what syle you may like. http://www.minilite.co.uk Congrats. on the new purchase. George.

This engine looks mean: (from a company called Hasegawa Power Sevices of Japan)

Has anyone ever tried doing a search on "fairlady Z .jp" you get some mad sites up from Japan. I used Altavista's babblefish to translate the pages. Look at this: I think its for the L series.

From me?

While Mike decides wether it will be worthwhile to incorporate a chat room on here (big Yes in my book) I was thinking of starting up an MSN list so we can chat via MSN messenger. Here's my handle: customzed@hotmail.com

Carl, There not worth having my friend . Let me take one of your hands!! Are you still offering the same deal, I know I'm 20 odd years late but just wondered

Most definately! This site has grown loads over the last couple of months. There is a lot of really decent people I have met on here and anyway that encourages us all to Chat Z stuff, keep in touch and increase our knowledge is a winner!! Definately a thumps up Mike

Yeah!! Just reiterating on what Mike's said she is amazing!! The rear of the 2+2's make the car look a bit like a Jaguar XJS at the rear, well from the angle of your pic Big Mac it does a bit.

Varnish!!! No, forget I mentioned the lawn mower. You're stuck with it unless there's a recycling depot near you who'd take it. Ask the local fire department for advice, maybe they'll even take it off your hands, there always practicing how to put fires out in their training exercises.

Mike, Unless the fuel has become contaminated with water it should be okey to burn off in the lawn mower. Burning it in the lawn mower is the most environmentally friendly way of getting shot of it.

Hi Nick, I wish you luck with this! Check out this article about this mad 240Z, http://www.autospeed.com/A_0505/P_1/article.html You get to the nirtous bit on page 3. G.

Greg, Great engine. is that the same thats in a 300zx TT?? Whats the power? (sorry for digressing on colour but your Z's worth it :D)

G'day BiG MAC, Our Brits are in Melbourne today playing tennis!! She looks like one hell of a mean machine. The colour really suits her. What engine is that?
