Yeb, 120 euro per ball joint and even then you won’t get a nut. Consider I’ve got 20% discount, I did not have to pay the taxes!!:classic: Nissan prices are high therefore I asked Courtesy what they charged. Living in Europe is not easy :stupid:

Nissan in Europe price each is 120 euro ex taxes = $140. Courtesy could deliver them for $85 each. But the shipping came at $60, so not worthwhile. Still a lot of money Consider you still have to pay import tax, normal tax? Above your cheap USA price!

the new ball joint and his nut

Here’s a picture of the two ball joints The old and the new one. Fact is, my car is august 1970 Z. I bought new ball joints with the parts number 40160-A8625. These are the same as the old ones except for the thread which I mentioned earlier! I did not have any problem with changing

Hold on! The chancing point lies at June 1970!!!! According the info of courtesy Nissan & Nissan motor sport. See page http://www.courtesyparts.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=40160-A8625&Category_Code=s30_nismo_z-steering-knuckles Even Motorsport Auto says early 240Z owners must call before ordering. My car is august ’70 Z and I’m about to change the ball joint tomorrow I’ll make pictures of the two. A got my NUTS!!!!! Oke not the castle nuts but it’s alright.

Not at the Nissan dealer!!!!:sick: Everything there has an number. I asked Courtesy for a price because we needed 4 ball joints and they where cheaper as in Holland. But shipping to Holland came to $60. So therefore I bought it over here. With out nut!!!

oepsss

he alfadog, is this on your list as well? the engine!

and to finish the story, This is inside..........

and here's the front. Oke it's not a G-nose but still a 2+2!!

You like an example?? Here’s a 2+2…chopped

Perhaps a problem? I recently bough two new ball joints for my, august ’70, 240Z part number 40160-A8625. http://www.courtesyparts.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=40160-A8625&Category_Code=s30_nismo_z-steering-knuckles Problem is however, the thread has changed! The old one has M14 x 1.5 and the new has M14 x 125!! Does this ring a bell to anybody? It’s very hard to find that kind of nut, specially a crown? nut. It would be a great help to get the Nissan part number.

I new about this advert because a friend of my has the DVD, but never though it would be this great. Awesome!!!!

Hi Alan, Mike, 2ManyZs and all you Rally lovers, You discovered it well, this is strange. But I do not know the answers to your questions. Before I mailed this list I mailed to Sean, who is one of the leading members together with Fred of the French Z club, and asked him to try to find these guy's and at least make them a member of the French Z club. Now I've got an even better plan; I will make the boys aware about this thread going on. I knew about Tony Fall's participating but I can't figure out where he ended. I have to contact the French Monte Carlo Rally organizers about this, because their finish list stops at number 12???? For my Victory Lane pages I need to know what the rest of the Datsun's participants did. Therefore please keep me updated with all the facts and figures you know. Semi works cars?? 2ManyZs, you come close to an explanation. But my interpretation of 'semi' is '(very) close to original' - 'ex original'. Sure, the works cars were sold to privateers but only after they were driven, that year, by the works drivers and even then, they had no full backup from Nissan! So Mike your definition is in my opinion half right. Kevin Bristow, who lives in the UK, is a proud owner of an ex-works car. His statement is "he owns a semi works car" because it isn’t a works car anymore! And what I've understand he also gets none backup from the Nissan organization. And that's a shame!

Leeroy …you donkey!!! You mixed up the cars! :stupid: Sure I’ve one no5 but the Frenchman, at the picture, has one also. And he’s the one who is lucky. But my time will come, some day Still …. Thanks for the replay
