It was the "north/south " area that I was thinking about rather than the front to back for the high/low beams. I guess the much larger stalk that had the cruise control on it just hid the gap. I wonder if the stalk with the cruise was OEM or added from another year car. Mine is a 73, was that an option then? G
I just finished installing a replacment turn signal switch & lever. After replacing the plastic 2 piece steering column cover I noticed that the opening where the lever comes out seems seems a lot larger then needed. The lever I replaced had cruise control on it so it was similar to the wiper /lights lever and hid the opening completely. My long winded question is: was there a rubber piece similar to a shifter boot or grommet in this area? Thanks, Greg
FYI, I just purchased a turn signal lever & switch from Allan Pape (see post before this one). Nice guy to deal with, good communication and quick delivery with a very reasonable price. I can now pass inspection! Greg
Thanks for the imput! I recently purchased my car from Ca. I am on the East coast so Ca. emissions won't matter. Using a distributor from a manual car sounds like a great idea. I was also just looking in my new Motorsports Catalog and saw they carry single point "new genuine Datsun replacement" distibutors for $150. (The dual point is $300) They also carry Mallory Unilite electronic distributors for $499. Anyone have any experience with these? Do any of these changes effect the tach? Thanks, Greg
Hi, After reading the posts on electronic ignitions and doing a search I am confused on what to do for my 73 240z w/automatic. Am I correct in my conclusion that because there is dual points that I can't use something like a Petronix system? Is there another system available? Is my only choice having to upgrade to something like a 280z distributor? My apologies if i missed something already posted. Greg
Is there a difference in the center consoles between an automatic and a standard shifter? In other words, can I use any console to replace my old one? I have a 73 240z w/ automatic. I know I need to get a console with the single slot for choke but is there anything else I need to worry about? Thanks, Greg
Looking for a 73 turn signal switch & lever that has cruise on it. Also looking for a new or nice used center console, correct choke knob, both front bumper guards and air injection tube. You can Email me at Greg@gpagency@aol.com Thanks, Greg
