I'm putting this for sale on here for a week or two before it gets posted elsewhere. Unfortunately I’m unable to complete this project due to time and space constraints and I’m having to sell it on to someone who has the time and space to complete it to the standard it deserves. The car is a...

Is anyone having problems accessing the forum through tapatalk? It won't let me view any posts or login. All other forums work fine.

I'm stripping down the steering rack which I believe is from a 260z to give it a good clean and regreased but I'm stuck with the rack retainer adjustment screw. I've tried a variety of screwdrivers but I'm just starting to damage it and the tips are slipping out. Has anyone got any idea to...

Apart from sitting for hours with sandpaper. How is everyone cleaning up the rust and crap off the dash frame and generally making it look a bit nicer. Not that you'll see it once it's all together [emoji1787]

Time to have a clear out as I seem to be hoarding parts just for the sake of it when I know I'm not going to be using them. All parts are from a 71 LHD 240z from california. All priced as collected but I can arrange postage for cost as required. If you require anymore pictures of specific items...

I'm at the point where I'm looking for a diff and I think I've decided on the 3.5 R200 from a 350z. This would also give me the benefit of having two speed sensor rings for doing traction control and other bits with the ecu. I'm using a CD009 gearbox from a 370z. I know first gear is quite...

I'm going to be using the Marugen Shoukai ZG flares on my car and I'm getting really frusted with what offset wheels to use. Lots of conflicting info. The flares add around 3cm to each side of the car...

Question for the guys who have fitted intercoolers through the obvious holes in the radiator support panel. What have you done with the fresh air vents? Added different ducting to retain it or filled the cavity with rust preventative treatment and plugged it up? If you plug it up I suppose...

The car has finally arrived on Friday so I thought I’d start documenting everything here to keep you gents up to date and for you to stop me going rogue and screwing up a beautiful car. This has been a dream car to me for a long time and I count myself lucky I'm in a position where I can afford...

So as I begin my project I've been looking at self loading rotisseries to make a lot of jobs infinitely easy. Unfortunately not seen any second hand to buy. What's everyone's thought on this one? Or is there a better option I've not seen...

I've Googled the hell out of this over the weekend and I'm sure it's going to involve a phone call to the dvla. Can you register an imported project car that's not currently non-roadworthy? And probably won't be for the next year or so. The car has been declared via NOVA and had the tax paid...

I thought I'd finally properly introduce myself seeing as I've bought a Z at long last. I've been a long time lurker and researcher and I've had a lot of incredibly useful information from this site so thank you all. I'm up in North Yorkshire and have the joys of being stuck at work on call a...

Has anyone got the above or know if it's any good? I believe the are using bc coilovers as part of their kit. https://m.facebook.com/DatsunEurope/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

With the increased difficultly and expense with sourcing a rhd steering rack, has anybody looked into aftermarket ones? I had been looking at Titan steering racks. Prices are around £550 to 600. No idea how easy this would be to mount though...

Just seen this on eBay. If only it was a legitimate advert. I'd be all over it. Looks like they've grabbed photos and descriptions from other adverts and trying to pass it as their own. All feedback is from buying (plus duplicates from the same company), only ever one picture per item and they...

I'm starting to assembly the parts I will need to convert to RHD ready for when I find a suitable 240z. What parts from a 260z 2+2 are interchangeable with a 240z? Mainly the parts I require for a RHD conversion: Steering rack Wipers and linkage Dashboard Interior (front half) Just seen a...

I'm now ready to begin the search for a late 260 or 280z. After the advice on here I'm looking to import one from the US. Where's the best place to start looking? I've looked on US ebay and hemming. Anyone have any experience and advice for importing a car? I'm looking to import one that...

So before I commit to buying a Z and restoring and modifying it I'm doing a massive amount of research and planning so I know what I'm letting myself in for. I'm wanting the car to end up as a daily driver and the main thing that has me worried is rust of all things. After the advice on here...

Thought I'd introduce myself as I've been lurking these forums for the last month gathering info ready for the next project car. I've been admiring the Datsun 240z for many years and I've decided now is the time to get one. I've always wanted after a classic car which I can modernise and use as...
