wont to buy 260z
Best place to start is how much can you afford,the 260z on our site looks ok,apart from one of the doors seem to be out of line in the picture,thats just to start without seeing it in the flesh,the 240z looks like it could be a good buy,tempted myself on that one,the late 260z is the better car as i said before,it all boils down to how much you can afford,3 grand you aint gonner get much in the way of 240z,260z seems to be priced reasonable,balls in your court,here is my number,07957881997,never know,you could be driving around in a zed this weekend

wont to buy 260z
Sounds like the seller has bumped hi head,bit much for any Zed here in England,240 or 260 if it needs that work done on it,where are you in Englan,im in london so am willing to check out a few zeds when they come up for sale so you dont get ripped of,stick to a late 260z as they are a little bit more refined than the 240s, and just as quick if you put the 240 carbs on them,if you want to compare the 2 different models then if you r down this way it could be arranged

My_Zeeeeeeee_005
Not letting the weeds grow,it was taken by the river bank which sloped down,was just a quick piccy taken with my new digi camera,just getting to know it,as for the spoiler it is a one peice fibreglass which does away with the front metal panels and also has the original rubber spoiler look built into it,that way it does away with those horrible little gaps that gradually appear over the years with the rubber spoiler they had when new,available over here in England,rough cost $80

Installing 15x8" with 225/50 tyres
i had a set of 8-15 compomotives with i think 235-55-15 so as to keep the speedo reading the same on my 260,wot you have to be carefull of is when you reverse on full lock,it can catch the edge of the wing,(fender)also the steering will be a lot heavier as the tyres wear,back should be no problem,i changed to a 7-16,much better ride and also, here in england there aint as much trye choice in a 15inch

NISMO grill install in a post 7-72 240
went straight on my 260,but it sits about an inch too low,to make it look and fit you will have to get 2 bits of metal,drill 2 holes each end so as to lift it up a bit then it will look a lot better,still have to do that to mine,been a bit cold here in england but it is a straight forward job
