    Can't believe the difference!

    Just had the headlamp relay conversion carried out on my 240Z and the difference is unbelievable. I had this done to take the load off the switch but had read that this also resulted in more power to the lights but didn't realise how much. I have owned the car for 6 years and have always...

    Engine required

    I need an engine to replace the one in my 240Z which is now using large amounts of oil. Condition is largely irrelevant as I will recondition it before putting it in the car. So if anyone has a 240, 260 or 280 engine surplus please pm me. However I have just had the head fully reconned on my...

    Bonnet Badge

    My 240Z was bought without the round Datsun badge on the bonnet and the holes have been filled in. I have acquired a badge off E Bay could someone please tell me the distance it wants to be from the front edge of the bonnet to the bottom of the badge?

    Seat belts

    I'm sure this must have been covered before, but at the expense of originality I want to fit inertia reel seat belts in my 240Z as i'm fed up with having to adjust the static ones every time I wear a different coat, jacket etc. What type do other members recommend and where is the best place to...

    Gear Lever Sizzle

    Has anyone any idea what causes gear lever "sizzle" on a 240Z? Only does it in 5th and sounds like bacon frying, no detriment really as the gearbox is perfect otherwise, just annoying. Have tried different gear lever knobs and also replaced the 3 nylon bushes at the base of the lever but with no...

    240Z wiper motor problem

    Fuel evaporation?

    My 240Z after several miles starts to misfire badly but improves if I give it half choke. This also happens after a short journey if the engine is stopped for a few minutes and then re-started. I at first suspected ignition problems and have replaced literally everything on the ignition system...

    Heated rear windows

    Does anyone know of a suitable method of repairing heated rear window lines other than that horrible silver paint stuff that looks awful and is the wrong colour anyway. Some years ago someone brought out a repair kit which was like a pen and painted very fine gold lines. Trouble was it was quite...
