Just want to make this one look just right for me.Get a 240 then you have both
I realise that many people on here get super upset when you change anything from the God like 100% stock setup. But since I've already got an RB in it I don't feel like it matters. Personally as long as its still an S30 I don't see why it matters if I put 240Z lights on a 260Z, if I'm going to have a car that cost me 6 figures I want it to look exactly how I consider best. I'm building the car my way, not necessarily Datsuns way. I see it as a great base with just a few tweaks to make the car how I see it perfect. If it upsets others thats no concern of mine. And I am trying to keep the body very close to stock as for me it looks perfect like that with only a few minor exceptions.
If I had the budget though, I'd have a second S30 with a 3.2l L series. Would love to.
No, I won't. I actually prefer many things about the 260Z over the 240Z, the interior is one of them. Just trying to make my mind up which lights I like best while I can still change them if that is what I decide I want to do.I think it's a slippery slope, if you make it look like a 240 from the outside, you'll start thinking about changing the dash, the door cards etc. Better to just keep it an awesome 260Z
I consider my build sort of like a Singer style build, keep the main theme and feel of the car but make subtle changes in some areas. Though obviously the quality level won't be the same because it won't cost a million plus like a singer.
When I bought the car I did also, but not so sure now.I've always preferred the 260z rear lights and would not have a 240z on that basis, even if i could afford one!
I definitely want to keep it S30.You could go the whole hog and fit something like this.I customised some 240Z taillights so I could fit either
