I got to see about 3 Prince Skyline GT's on the weekend here in Australia I'll hopefully have some pics shortly. The red one look great with the 3 webers on it . First time I've seen them in person.

Hmmmm I reakon $40 mainly because there hard to find without broken studs I've got 2 sets both with a couple of broken studs. $40 because anything less is too cheap and anything over is too expensive. Not sure what they are worth new though. Anyone else?

Yeah I've taken a closer look and although they are bad in places I think the best bet would be to repair the existing doors. At least they seem to fit well and would be the correct guage steel etc. I'm gonna get in contact with Warren at Zworx here in Melbourne I believe Rob who used to own the place and has had experience for years now would be the best and safest bet. I'll keep you guys posted on what happens either way

Looking good Kyteler what does the letter on your rear wing stand for?

Yeah hopefully he comes along on Sunday for the Concours event at Southbank but i haven't heard he is going and I dont know if he's a NDSOC member. I have not met the guy but my friend is good friends with him and is actually fixing up car 189 for him aswell. We will have to wait and see. Gavin :laugh:

That's why we have Zhome.com so we don't have to know anything about them :cheeky: .

One other tip for increased WIPER PERFORMANCE is to polish and wax your windscreen although not a permanent fix it certain helps the wipers dissipate the water quicker and makes it easier to see in the rain. If you wax your car at least once a month like I do then it's alright if not then it's not really a big deal i guess. Carl I'll look forward to your technical article on the wiper motor rebuild although I'll probably have no need for it for a while since my current motor works quite well.

Thanks for that I've heard the Rare Spares doors arn't the best fit and the doors are pretty thin guaged compared with standard . I know all Z parts make some door skins but my problem is i need the inner doors more than the actual skins.

Hey guys, recently a bit of rust in my doors made me realise I need to take care of it now and forever so i can just forget about it and move on with the rest of the car. So at the moment my priority is fixing up my door skins. It's quite unusual on my Z the inner skins are stuffed but the outer skins are actally not all bad. I'm looking into a few options but i know a few members here in Australia make replacement sections or know who's good and who isn't. So if anyone can post some links to places or give some details on where i can either find a really good set of second hand <b>240z</b> doors or fabricated panels. Thanks heaps.

As Daniel says i've found the items listed will indeed improve start up procedure 100% choke being the main and spark plugs a big help. Check your dizzy cap for wear and rotor button.

I reakon what a lemon! Second time I've seen a ZX converted to carbies. What's the point of a ZX after that?

haha i much prefer Kevin's car it much nicer looking very classic yet modern too

Isn't the S14 Sr20 Silvia gearbox fairly easy to adapt to the Z? Just a bell housing change I think. I am wondering if the S15 6 Speed would work just as well. That would be really good in a Z and strong

http://www.zcar.com/month/2004/11/ Usually I don't go in for putting a car down but honestly if this is car of the month then I don't know. :stupid: Leave the Z lines alone please!

Just noticed you replied to my other thread ahh sigh the difficulties without notification .

MIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELP US no notifications lately!

Yes I posted a thread about your exact same problem Alan I only had a couple of replies and I figured it must have been a small group effected but now I realise it must be a good lot of us having the problem. Mike hasn't said anything yet but I don't wanna hijack the thread so I might PM him.

Does it make you horny baby yeah! sorry bit bored here

Ok i think it happens under hard braking because of teh vacumm assist. My car does the same I have not cured it but it doesn't seem to be a huge problem. The Sandgroper your mechanic or carb guy might say it's set fine but doesn't mean it is. When setting up your chokes make sure you attach the cables when you have fully turned the choke levers so they are <b>completely</b> off then attach the cables the normal way. Also the choke should be pulled to full when starting and once started it should be set to around 1200rpm for a little you may drive straight away just adjust the choke as you go down the road. You'll find the engine revs will seem higher each time you stop as the engine warms keep the choke at 1000rpm after about 2mins driving. It should not foul your plugs if your plugs are fouling still check and make sure it's not valve stem seal's leaking and causing oil build up . Hope that helps!
