100% torque at 2500rpm you say, seems a tad high to me, now if that was 1500rpm ....................

Seriously, glad you finally have the beast on the road!!!!

You have to pull away at 1500..........and hell erupts at 3700

But not only is she on the road, but I've brought over my pit-crew - should anyone be wondering why Dave isn't answering his phone...........

It looks nice Sean; I was lucky enough to get a look at it all assembled last week whilst dropping my engine block up to Dave's.

It surprised me that you went for the 280Z vented bonnett being as your car has the "clean" look (i.e - no badges, no spoilers, no wing repeaters and smoothed out wing /cowl seam). Very nice 10/10

 

[SeanDezart]

Thanks,

the vents are there for practical reasons (I hate louvred bonnets) and the heat needs to escape ! Looks are nice but efficacity takes priority ! And since Mr J has told me I'll never get a block like mine again, I can't afford to cook it ! The bonnet came on the car from the states !

Look's really nice, very cool.

Looks great Sean, it has been a long time to get back on the road but you must be very proud?

Sean,

hows the power stearing ?
any pictures ?
what parts were used ?
what size wheels are on the car ?

 

[DJZ 60]

& I want to know what type of air do you use in your tyres? & do the tyre pressure
machines in France have the instruction's in French ,English or Hungarian language?
Thanx'zzzzz DJZ 60.

 

[240z]

Looks damn good, seems you have got the ride height set just about right in my opinion, hope to get mine like that soon!

Quickly 'cos I'm still knackered from Le Mans Classic (a great and other story) !

The PAS is a feature that if I didn't have, I'd say I didn't need it but I can take corners and roundabouts so much quicker and more precisely with it that it is a great option. I can switch it off when not needed (M-way driving for example).

Dave has asked me not to give out too many details on the PAS (it wasn't cheap) but it IS a Nissan rack

Wheels are 8x15 Minilites. Air was supplied by 141 young Peruvian virgins practising blow jobs - this was free 'butt' fitting the special valves to accomodate such non-metric intakes wasn't easy to make up !

Instructions are in Italian Brail with a special head-butt application button for distressed Algerian footballers !

The car went around the full Le Mans circuit in the hands of Mr Jarman who reportedly had 'a good time' and was NOT overtaken despite the Ferraris, GT40s, Cobras and a four-up OAP MK10 Jag.

Mr Lack was also present and giving the same cars a good thrashing

Great to see you guys having a good time and showing off your Zeds!

DJ what a star, I bet he's having fun and doing a bit of development for you too Sean.

Sean your car is awesome, very tastefully restored and modified, I'm jealous.

This is what Zed ownership is all about!

 

[SeanDezart]

With.....or without.......?

I simply don't know..... ! And if so, in yellow or black ?

 

[datsun dave]

Without looks so much better

BUT

If it stop it going pear shape then in yellow.

 

[grolls]

yellow, as when in black there hard to see and look there is a bit missing. Mind you the bricks and wood would look better blended in or simply removed.

 

[SeanDezart]

Well, Father Christmas brought it all the way from Japan....and I don't want to seem ungrateful but it IS a different look isn't it ?
