Hello All,


I first joined the site back in 2006 with limited postings between then and now, I still have the 260Z 2+2 and currently having it looked at in the local garage to see if I can firstly get it back on the road.


I`ve Re-joined the site to for advice and to improve knowledge in trying to keep the car in good shape and make it roadworthy once it is back with me.


The car runs and really sounds good however the handbrake and brakes do not work. I will look to start a new post on items I am looking for and where I can get these from.

Help appreciated


Thanks Richard

Welcome back Richard! Most of the parts can now be ordered from Rock Auto in the states.

Any photos of the car?

Yes I have some photos which I will upload shortly on a new post.

In terms of the parts is this the only way to get new/refurb kit, or are there places in the UK?

Is rock auto where most members go to for there Datsun parts?

Thanks Richard

Look forward to some photos!

Rockauto seems to be the best option for many parts, they are much cheaper than any of the limited UK suppliers normally so even factoring in tax/shipping it works out at a lower cost in my experience. If ordering multiple items try and get them from the same warehouse (the website is pretty clear) as this will save ALOT in shipping.

Thanks for the info, i will take a look for some callipers and see how it works out.
