Just installed that. Pretty cool and it is much easier than opening it in a program. Best part is you resize many images at once. Thanks Mike Dubya.

Try MS Paint. It does a fairly good job of keeping the picture clean (ie not pixelated all to hell). Just go to the Image menu, then select Stretch/Skew and put in the percents you want. Simple and free with XP. Now the older versions of MSP didn't do very good reductions but the more recent versions do. Not sure about max size - it could be a file size restriction or a picture dimension restriction. Not sure which. If it's a file size sometimes opening it in a program in MS Paint and re-saving it or saving as a new name will reduce the size. Some JPG programs are less efficient in their compression than others.

rusty, note that the car in the ad is a 1Liter engine (A10) and not the A14 described in some of these replies. But you could probably drop an A14 or A15 in with no problems.

Oh MY GOD this is completely off topic for this site I can't belive I'm reading this here!!!!!!! Take you're whiney bull sh()T somewhere else IT DOESN"T BELONG ON A Z CAR SITE!!!!!!!!!!!!That's IT I"M LEAVING THIS SITE I HATE ALL OF YOU !!! MIKE PLEASE CLOSE THIS THERAD THIS IS REDICULOUS TO HAVE TO READ THIS CRAP WHEN I"M HNERE ONLY TO READ Z CAR STUFF THIS IS INSANITY! OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!! / j/k hope everyone's ok in FL

Thanks Chris, that makes sense to me. I thought it had something to do with shifting gears. Michael

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what exactly is clutch slipping and how do you know it's slipping? I guess I don't understand how the whole clutch assembly works enough to understand the explanations I read on the internet after searching Google. Thanks, Michael

put it back together carefully and sell it. i bet you lost half of the pins/rivets but who knows maybe you can find enough of them. jeezus christ I can't believe you pulled it all out

Halz, didn't you see the pics? Probably has a near perfect interior - butterscotch by the way. If only I had a budget for my Z right now I'd do my best to buy it from ls1 before he hacks it to pieces (the interior that is).

I just purchased my own domain which I will use to host my datsun project webpages (my '72 240Z, '79 210 and my paintcode project). I'm also interested in hosting a few other members' projects if anyone is interested. There will be no ads or pop-ups or any of that crap because the site will be hosted by a friend of mine, but if the bandwidth gets too high there will be a monthly fee incurred, probably in the range of 10$ per month or so (not each, but for the entire site). If anyone is interested in setting up a project on this site let me know. I may even cover the monthly charge myself - which may be something on the order of treating my friend to lunch once a month . I would prefer to host projects that are updated frequently like mine (ok though I'm not making any progress right now - shut up). ALso I would prefer no high bandwidth junk like music or large off-topic files, but there is plenty of space for all thepictures you can take. So if you're interested drop me a PM or email, or reply here. By the way, when the DNS is set up it'll be at www.datsunprojects.org. MIchael

after you open the door and lock it from the inside, try lifting the handle as you shut the door and release it after the door is shut. it should remain locked. at least it does on other old cars i've seen such as my '79 210. i'm not sure what it's supposed to do though but i don't think that's uncommon.

the user name is the same as the pass (assfvck). have fun!

what the hell i created an acct and d/l'd it. mostly a bunch of Z3X's driving down the street and burning out, a few early z's here and ther but not many. anyway if anyone wants to see use my log in user and pass "assfvck". not that i really care that much but it wouldn't hurt to log off after d/lin the video

someone please post if it's worth the wait and pita to set up an account first. thanks michael

Ok it looks like a Z knob will fit my 210. If anyone has a decent to poor condition knob they wouldn't mind letting go of for a few bucks let me know. I'd prefer a "Datsun" or 4-speed knob, but if anyone has one that's lost it's decal that's fine too. Just need something to grab onto that's not broken. Please PM or reply here. Thanks Michael

Thanks Inf!:ninja:

Anyone know the size of the threads on the Z shift knob or shifter? An approximate size in inches or mm would be great. I'd like to find a replacement knob for my 210 but all of my Z knobs and shifters are out of reach in storage. I'm looking for a replacement on Ebay and I'm hoping a Z knob will fit. Thanks for the help! michael

It's a '79 - 210 (No "B"). I think '79 is when the body style changed to the more boxy one. what I need to do is find a Dat history page that will clearly explain these models. I've seen all sorts of names used for these (B210, 210, 120Y, 140Y etc) so I'm not sure what is what in the different markets. What I need to know is where to get parts! It's got a bad blinker/high/low beam switcher. I had to disable the highs to keep them off. Also I'll need brake parts for sure and who knows what suspension parts. And the air/heat blower is disconnected or broken. datsun1200.com looks like a good resource if I can figure out what my car is on the Oz market. Hardly anyone calls their car a 210 there. I'm still looking for wheels if anyone has a lead on that! michael

I just bought a 210 that has 280ZX 6 spoke rims with center caps. The tires are not good but the rims themselves are in good condition. I'd like to do a local trade for something else if anyone is interested. These are 14"x6" I believe. I don't want anything over 14" and even 13" is OK. I'll post or email pics if anyone is interested. Post here, send PM or email by clicking the email link below this post. Thanks michael (attached pic is my new toy/daily driver - hehehe)

Well just noticed the car has no AC so nevermind...

I had a problem like this in my toyata pick-up long ago. It turned out that the tube that dumps condensed water from the A/C had popped out of it's hole (to the ground) and was draining onto the floorboard.

Looking through my email I found who I'd sent it to. I don't have the club ID but I'll PM you his email address. Michael

yeah... there's a bunch of stuff on ebay...
