    280z project

    So life and another car got in the way and my 280 has pretty much sat untouched in the garage for the past few years. I gave up on the idea that I would be able to repair it myself and took it to an expert. Andy at Auto Panel Solutions has done an outstanding job repairing it. Plan is to...

    Just bought a 280Z and its my first Datsun.

    Thanks. I was worried it wouldn’t fit if I brought one. I really like the look with the indicators still in the grill.

    Floor replacement query...

    I've been wondering about the seat brackets on my 280 also. Mine are rusted so they need to be cut out anyway, I was going to put them back in, but I'm thinking I will put in cobra vintage racing seats in at some point. I like your idea of putting in strengthening brackets and putting a mount on...

    Another 240z RHD conversion project

    Hi John, I'm planning to do the RHD conversion soon. Was wondering how you did the holes in bulk head, are the measurements of the holes the same as the LHD side? (with the spacer you mentioned before) I'm thinking about buying this panel from Auto Panel Solutions, to get the measurements just...

    Interest in new steering racks

    I may be interested in a RHD one in the future, have been looking for a steering rack for a while for my conversion. Although for the moment I'm trying to spend my time/money on getting the car on the road as is and will do the rhd swap later this year/next year.

    280z project

    Whilst waiting for the new floors to arrive I have had a go at restoring the 240z steering wheel I picked up and I resprayed the louvres. Turns out spray painting (with cans) is a lot harder than I thought, eventually I would like to pick up an air compressor and redo the louvres properly. They...

    I was wondering the same thing. Does it matter if they are short ones or long ones?

    Cold air intake tips for S30Zs - the CRX solution...

    That looks brilliant, thanks for writing it up. I've put one of the K&N filter kits on my 280, it came with a bracket that slots into where the stock unit would have been. When I have switched over to carbs (SU's) I am planning to get one of those air boxes and create something similar. Using...
