Z - 35 Years of Nissan's Sports Car
Flipped through a copy of this book at the bookshop on the weekend. Noticed the drawing of the CSP311 Silvia, that looked nothing at all like the CSP311 Siliva. Why couldnt they use a photo of the Silvia, or even a drawing that actually looked like a Silvia. The drawing they used looked like a Fiat. Whether it was a concept drawing of the Silvia or not, it looked nothing like the finished car. Needless to say I wasnt inspired enough to buy the book. I wonder how many other inaccuracys are in the book.

Alfadog has a spare 240K 2 Door that he will probably be selling once he gets the bits he needs off it. (gearbox, pedal box clutch etc... he's doing a manaul conversion to his GTR look alike). Definatley repairable.

increase your screen resolution. I dont have a problem and i'm using firefox, except when the image is larger that the screen. I use firefox at work, as the network guys wont let us use windows boxes - too many problems with windows.

Now selling parts
I'm not going to fix my K up. I like i pretty much the way it is. Just fix the rust holes in the doors so Mr plod doesnt get sticker happy. I park it in a Uni car park all day, so I expect its going to get damaged by a p plate driver one of these days.

240Z Project CAR SOUTH AUSTRALIA
When it stops being fun, take a break from it. Sell the Mini and the Landy. The Z is far more desirable. Enjoy the summer. Get back into it when you feel like it.

No firewall Vin
Nope thats pretty much spot on where the vin should be stamped, maybe a tiny bit more to the right. No plate there just the numbers stamped into the metal. Behind the hoses and wires, above the clip that holds the brake booster vacuum line, above the horizontal ridge, like in the photo Alan posted. Just about on the same level with the screw hole that holds the windscreen water squirter thingy.

240Z in movies
Was watching "Without a trace". was the one where the FBI guys brother goes missing after a deal to buy a panel beaters shop goes pear shaped. In one of the flashbacks at the panel shop, some guys are pushing an orange car out of the shop, you only see the top half of the car, but i'm pretty sure its a S30 Z 2 seater.

240Z Extractors on Ebay
shipping to perth would be way expensive wouldnt it Alfa. Try putting them on ozdat for a fixed price, like $250 and see if anyone buys them, you can always cancel ebay listings. Its permitted by the ebay rules. Why couldnt you return them to the place you bought them from?

Northbridge tunnel cameras
Your speedo is in miles per hour is it Hayden. I wonder if you could have gotten off by claiming a conversion error in the maths when mentally converting mph to kph. I used to do 130kmh on the freeway to work every morining, traffic permitting. Cameras arent effective across 3 lanes of fairly heavy traffic.

Metal headlight bucket?
We all know when someone says headlight bucket, sugar scoop, etc that they are talking about the headlight case, not the headlight assembly that the headlight is in. As stated above, the early ones were moulded plastic, as nissan had trouble forming the correct shapes out of metal. But they figured it out and started making metal ones. I dont know if there is a plastic/frp reproduction.

Northbridge tunnel cameras
Chris its Polly pipe. not because it leaks, but because its named after Graeme Farmer, whos nick name is Polly. History lesson over. Hi Hayden, Never got a ticket in the mail then? They like to put the multi nova camera on the side of the entrance to the Poly pipe. on the south bound lane, where the grassy section is.
