I bought at 240Z at the end of last year and booked up for a track day at Castle Combe in May! It’s a rally car so not entirely suited for track but making a few changes.
I live in Northumberland so quite a journey down (and back as well).
The car hadn’t been used for a few years, not since the Welsh GB rally in 2017 but passed an MOT recently so generally good.
Have had to replace broken front indicator (have purchased original Euro spec ones but added some Honda motorbike ones for now).
Also found that the fan override switch was intermittent and traced a broken wire.
Some relays were also rusty, and although the worked I’ve replaced them.
The light switch was dodgy as well so replaced that, along with some other switches to match.
One of the spot lights (Lucas 20/20) was broken, but replaced all 4 with Cibie’s.
The seats were also not suited to me (a way of saying I’m bigger than the last driver ). Awaiting new seats from Motordrive.
The main change is wheels and tyres. It came with 2 sets of gravel tyres and a set of not-so-great tarmac. I’ve had the original Minilites painted black and transferred the track tyres from my TR4 onto them (can share the wheels as same).
A few other things have changed, like fixing the rear spoiler as a a fibreglass version which was cracked in a few places so sorted.
