Don't think you can send them your 240z but this is a great thing for Nissan to do i think ,

I bet that's pricey!

I'm sure I read $45000.

I can't afford that, but I do like the fact they are doing it and manufacturing some old parts to help keep the old stuff going

$433,000. $45000 would be a bit cheap - especially as a RHD conversion in the UK can cost £10k (somehow!).

Another Thread that's gone way off-topic and just a argument. I suppose most of us are missing 'talking b******s' in the pub with our mates.

At least this Forum is serving a purpose.

I've moved the debate about 10k LHD to RHD conversion :

So, looking at the finger-in-the-air maths from the other thread, at the £320k cost, there might be 2-3000 hours of work going into these, even assuming a 25% cost on replacement parts and a decent profit margin for Nissan. That's like 65 weeks work, or 4 months of 4 guys rebuilding every piece of the car - doesn't sound too unreasonable when you break it down like that.

I find it strange that on a several hundred thousand pound restoration they only fit new brake lines if required. I'd have thought that was a low cost no brainer.
