Curry Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Just got a 1972 240z from my friend. It's been sitting in his backyard rusting away and I figured why not restore it and give it some power. After we finish the turbo setup in the camry i'll probably be parting it out and using all the turbo stuff for the l28 swap which seems to be one of the most common swaps... I still have tons of reading to do so I may disappear for a while Anyway here are some pics of the cars: And the camry: T3/T4 Turbo, 7mgte supra injectors, hks ssqv, tial 38mm wastegate, custom piping, xsturbo FMIC, AEM Wideband, autometer oil temp, pressure and boost, hayden oil and tranny coolers, stainless steel lines, aeromotive FPR, walbro255 fuel pump. Everything is being tuned with a emanage blue with all the harnesses (injectors, main and ignition) Audio powered by AMD CarPC 7 inch touchscreen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fhptom Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 For sitting out in the weather the rust doesn't seem too bad compared to what the rest of the car looks like. Any 1st generation body is getting to be a hard find. Good luck... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curry Posted July 17, 2007 Author Share Posted July 17, 2007 Thanks, I've got a good body guy and he says don't even worry about it, he'll handle everything... My main goal is to get the motor, swap it in, turbo it and get it running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curry Posted August 30, 2007 Author Share Posted August 30, 2007 Well I haven't had much time for the car. School is started and im working full time. The last thing that happened was the muffler fell off while we were driving it. LOL. So we need a whole new exhaust system, its stupidly loud once it warms up. i just sold my other car and picked up a 1996 SC400 so I've been busy getting the paperwork done and setting up my GPS.

Spyder Z 15 Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 1st time I've seen eD gear here. Nice. Ov.2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curry Posted September 1, 2007 Author Share Posted September 1, 2007 Yea the OV2 is sweet man. My original plan was to put both of them I have in there but I got lazy so I have one unused that im trying to sell lol. I plan on going with a full ED setup for the SC as well. Components and the slim sub to replace the stock one and maybe an amp. The stock nakamichi amp is nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slownrusty Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Curry - Beautiful SC400, I have contemplated purchasing one, on and off for many years. You socred yourself a fantastic car. I would love to be a student and be able to have a 240Z and a SC400! Man..times have changed to when I was a student I'm jealous!). Hope things start progressing with the Datsun.
