Ok, that,s sound good to me. The car sat for 1 year without running. The previous onwer told me that the valve seals might have become dry??? Is he right, can it be possible? But, yes, be assure that I will make a complete check-up on the car this srping before finalizing my deal! Is 93 000 miles a lot on these engines? I know form the 2nd owner that he car was used a couple of time for Solo and some lapping... Anything else particular I want to check before, like clutch, tranny, bearings? merci!

Ok, another technical ?. The Z I'm buying will need a job on the valve seals. Is it long and expensive (in US$, I will make the conversion in CND$)! The owner told me the car is not smoking when running, but the engine is burning some oil... And, for the timing chain, is it recommended to change all the parts to do a clean job using that kit?? http://www.courtesyparts.com/S30-TBKIT.html Anyone did that before? Thanks for the inputs!

Yeah, weather really sucks!! I'm not really in hockey, I'm more hot blooded than cold.. I'll try to post pictures of my car later on. I was not able to locate the famous smog pump in the Haynes manual... What does ti look like?:sleep:

Thankss! Well, from whaht I know from the previous owner, he did remove the smog pump, because it was eating to much power (I've heard 20-25HP???).. So, for the smog thing, I think I do n't have to worried about it anymore. The car is fitted with a custom exhaust line 2.5 inches just after the OEM headers. BTW, the car is still stored, it si winter here in Mtl, and for me, that really sucks big time....can't wait for spring time!!!:mad:

I'd like to know if it is possible to remove the big retangular box for the air filter and put instead rounded air filters like K'N ?? Any other brands and things that will need to be made on tne carbs settings?? Is it hard to do? Merci!

Hi. I'm from Montreal, CND, and on my way to buy a nice 240Z 72. The car has 93 000 miles and need a valve seal job this spring (car is actually stored). I'd like to know what is the interval to change or do maintenance on the timing chain since i did not find any info in the Haynes manual... Thanks for your help!
