    260/280Z 2+2 seat belts

    Hi, I am currently in dire search for seatbelt replacement for my 260Z 2+2 1978. A normal 3 point seat belt is not optimal as the 2+2 seater has the mounting points quiet high. This is done to allow the rear passanger for a easier entry I think. The original seat belts have an extension from...

    Looking for 240/260/280 Z first project car

    Hi all, I've done a fair bit of research and have decided that I would like the 240z (series) as my first project car. I'm looking for basically a rolling chassis, but with minimal rust. As I've seen on the forums its hard to come by one with minimal rust, and if you do, its likely been done...

    260z brake upgrade and modification

    Hi all. Some help and advice please. Brake failure this week due to the copper flange into the back of the calliper cracking and losing fluid. Turns out that the flexi hose to copper ‘S’ shaped calliper brake pipe was not fixed to the strut (BC coilovers) and the latter was taking stress along...

    260z Rev counter fix

    Having spent Sunday recommissioning my broken rev counter I thought I would share the results.

    Brake Servo/Booster Replacement

    This obviously concerns my 260z 2+2 servo, but apart from the servo size difference on other cars, it's pretty much all relevant to 240z and probably 280z as well. I recently replaced my failed brake servo with a re-manufactured unit, my car being a late 2+2 it has the larger 8" booster as...
