Ok, here is the poll!
I totally agree unless your building a Museum standard car I wouldn't worry about it too much honestly. I'd rather have a worked L28 and enjoy it than worry about the fact that it should have an L24

Rear Drums Steel vs. AL
I've also noticed the stock 240z ones are finned to help disapate heat better. I'd personally go with stock 240z style ones.

Original G Nose for Sale Unused!
Yeah it is a bit dunno if they are made from carbon fibre doesn't look that way. I only really posted it for the car more than anything it looks pretty nice and the Wat's are great. One thing though the rear flare looks like it doesn't fit right like they put them on the car the wrong way around or something .

I'm wondering the same I would mind buying that if i had the cash but i don't at the moment. However i've seen items on there like racing seats etc.. tat would be cool.. and i'd like to keep my eye out for Watanabe's.

Newbie Here!
Errrrr Will that was well put together but do you think if you spent the same time thinking up that prognosis as you did on your Z that you'd probably be finished by now? couldn't help it. Very funny though. Next time they refer to it as a Penis mobile maybe inform them that you drive it cause you've got the balls and you can't have 1 without the other .

Abolishment of the 15 year rule
I wouldn't mind the Pulsar GTI-R as a daily driver good on fuel and would suprise a few people especially looser WRX owners .

Okay here you go Will http://www.ztherapy.com/technical_stuff/spotterguides/zcar/240spotter.htm The Australian's didn't get the "Clapper" i mean flapper . We have the equivilent of your 1969 till mid late 1970 air cleaner. I suppose it depends if Rick wants one with or without the flapper ?

Air cleaner needed
that went over my head. On the 240z in Australia we only had the 1 air cleaner housing. We didn't have all that ridiculous power sapping emission rubbish you blokes got!

cam help
I don't know what the MSA style Camshaft is like but I'd say it would be fine if you don't go over the top on porting. It's a combo of both porting and camshaft profile that would make it less drivable down low. I'd say you'd be fine with the wild cam but if your not going to do much else to the motor it's kind of a waste. As Will was saying you'd be better off spending your money on the items he listed and if your not happy then put in a bigger camshaft. Can you give me the formula for C:R? I've never seen what it looks like and would like to know how to work it out myself aswell. I have a lightened flywheel in my Z from memory it's about 6 kilograms that's prob ~12pounds in your measurement . I find it quite reasonable sometimes when the motor is cold the revs drop very quickly and it can almost stall but i tinker with the choke anyway. I find it can be a little sensitive on the throttle but that's also because of the distributor recurve. It comes down to your budget and your goal i guess.

Abolishment of the 15 year rule
Because they are cheap go fast and have a hero reputation. I somtimes think that when people buy a certain car they feel they have to act a certain way in it to fit into the profile they bought the car for. The same would apply for Mercedes drivers, BMW, Silvia, Skyline, Commodore, even us Z drivers im sure fit a profile !

L24 tuning? Know How??
I noticed nobody else has replied and it's more than likely because it's a topic that's been covered many times before. Try using the search function and if you still have questions im sure people will be willing to give you some advice.

15" Rewinds
Yes I've been through this with my cheif mechanic . For the type of rotors i would wanna use with Z32 or Brembo's it wouldnt be worth it and 16" is minimum size I would require. The Superlites i have don't accomodate for much in terms of inner design so it's easier to just get another set of wheels.

Test fit BIG tires
