I have been following his build! Love what he is doing w/the Z31! Don't believe it was my car - it hasn't driven under its own power since 2002....😲 Hope to have it under its own power by this summer and my wife is lighting a fire under me to get it done and not work on other projects! I've built several in the interim, and this one keeps moving with me, staying at the bottom of the list. Finally its turn.

May have to do that next time I'm up in Richmond! I'm finally working on mine again - tracking it on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/snocone240/

Just wanted to say this was awesome! Love how you used a no longer viable shell in a way that is inspiring to the rest of us!

Sold!

Finally have the updated pics. It has been a rough week - one of my professors unexpectedly passed away this week so I'm a little scatterbrained. Here are the close-ups best I can get. I do not have the three pronged plug for the three wires, but I do have instructions on where they attach. That plug is the same on all mallory distributors, so it is easy to get from Mallory/jegs/summit/etc.. I did clean up the wires quite a bit as well - they all look like what you can see in the first pic now, unlike the dirty pic above. I also went through and greased/lubricated the flyweights, pivots/etc.. All cleaned up/not dirty anymore. Questions, just ask. -Bobby

Trying to find if I've missed a forum that caters to the 510 or roadster racers. I ask because I have a set of NOS NISMO 510 or Roadster rear brake shoes - the Ferodo AM4 "green stuff". Nismo screwed up and sent them to me when I ordered the 240z brakes many years ago,(20?). They obviously didn't fit - and I never dug deep to check part numbers. I've been toting them around all these years in the event I built up a race Z with stock rear drums,(and i just had made a mistake in my install). Once I figured out the issue, NISMO no longer carried either set,(Z or 510's). I could always do Ebay, but trying to improve my exposure and thus my return on my "investment" all those years ago! -Bobby

I've been saving this for years, but I won't be using it anytime soon - time to let it go to someone who can enjoy it and fund some parts on my current Z project that doesn't need this distributor! (RB26 swapped Z) Mallory Unilite Distributor. Optical, no vacuum advance, (mostly for triple carbs, but can be run with normal SUs or FI). Includes full set of Mallory Pro Sidewinder plug wires specified for the L6. Worked great when pulled. Was igniting a 500+ RWHP turbo setup before I pulled it and sold that motor. This is over $600 new just for the distributor. Wires run another $100-150. http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/12-4042 $375 shipped in the Continental US. If you live outside of that, PM or post here for a price to ship it to your location. Just realized some of these pics are blurry... will redo by this weekend so I have more than 1 pic! I'll also clean up the plug wires/etc..

Holy old thread batman! Yea, geocities going down was a surprise to me, (I had my e-mail attached to an old account I check about once a year). Fortunately for us, one guy made a tremendous effort to save all the geocities sites at a place called reocities. So my websites are the same, except substitute reocities for geocities. The links are: http://www.reocities.com/row4navy/ And there is no Z garage geocities site - so the one provided above is the new link. -Bob

Ivan, Could you list what the part numbers correspond to? I.E. xxxx = oil pan, yyyyy=engine mount, etc.. Thanks, Bob

Sorry, Bryan took his e-mail off his site. As far as I know, he is still in the Richmond area. The Z Doc in Roanoke might be better able to point you in the right direction. -Bob

Hey all, Been away from the fray for a while, a little to much fun flying. I have finished a fairly through update of the Datsun Workshop. And Bryan Little recently changed the Datsun Garage link which I updated. If you know anyone who has either link on their page, let them know of the changes to both. I have e-mailed most of the pages I could find. My 240 is currently in storage. Running, but not being driven. Still working on swaping a T5 and a R200 in. They are in, but not connected. Something about two sets of second gear syncros. They just can't handle the torque of the stroker... But it will be next christmas before that happens. In the mean time, I have a '00 BMW M Coupe as a daily driver. Rough life, jets and fast cars. The link is as follows. I will try to hyperlink it, may not work. <a href="http://www.geocities.com/row4navy/"><b>The Datsun Workshop</b></a> And here is The Datsun Garage's updated link: <a href="http://www.geocities.com/zgarage2001/z.html"><b>The Datsun Garage</b></a> if those don't work, here are the base links: http://www.geocities.com/row4navy/ & http://www.geocities.com/zgarage2001/z.html -Bob H
