  1. I was on the set today for the new Owen Wilson movie "Hall Pass" when this rough 240 was delivered. No other details other than in it will be in the movie. There also was very clean BMW 2002 that came in with it. They were shooting in Marietta, GA. by the Chattahoochee river.
  2. It is funny how the diesel guys bash the "crank snatchers" but there it sits complete and unsold.
  3. Nice build! More pics and details please!
  4. Damn, now I need to know who Taihuan is. Even though he knows less than the guy selling the S130Z31 T5.
  5. One thing I have encountered working on the Z31 is you need to double the amount of time you think it will take. Anytime I work on the 84, I have no expectations on when I will finish a particular task. I would have a different outlook if it was my DD. That is when you starting hating to work on your car, watching the clock and calculating how much sleep you will get.
  6. You might want to check the rust on the floor pans and frame rails. The fuel tank is more than likely rusted. Looks like the dash is crack free that is plus, but if floors and rails are shot, it isn't going to be worth more than a couple hundred. That sunroof is not helping the value any.
  7. I thought I would see what everyone thought about this car, I am on the fence if I like it or not. I plan on seeing it in person in the next couple of days. Does not run, no clarification on rust status.
  8. Any idea how many miles are the car? I could use the springs if not shot.
  9. The chrome mirrors are more abundant than the black. Datsun Spirit usually has some. http://store.datsunspirit.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=14
  10. I have been waiting for something to circumvent spike strips.
  11. RatDat has extensive list of Nissan paint codes http://www.ratdat.com/?page_id=25
  12. I am not sure if he is correct on it being the second, maybe fifth or sixth? http://atlanta.craigslist.org/cto/1061973165.html He also has this ad, 1973 DATSUN 240Z W/ 5,975 ORIGINAL MILES!!! - $35000 http://atlanta.craigslist.org/cto/1061868197.html
  13. Odd there is no engine bay pics, what is up with that passenger rear aluminum patch? No pics on the quarter glass interior, could be a ton of filler on that car. Ain't feelin the dash or seats
  14. Not useless to me, I have yet to see a actual customers before and after dash. Looks good, I did not know that they had quit doing the S30 restorations. I haven't spoke to them in a couple of years, what was the price? "chuffed", (quite pleased) I had to look that one up
  15. There is a link in this thread for a company in Australia who sells the rear hatch sill. http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=143000&highlight=tabco
  16. $850 is not bad, I was not aware anybody in the states was doing that. I assumed Australia was the only place. Please post the name of the company. I wonder if they have any kind of group discount? "Dash for a 1977 Datsun 280Z is $850.00" Have they done a RHD dash?
  17. I have a 71 that has a couple of spots of chrome missing. Won't work for a concours resto. Maybe a 6.5 or 7 out of 10.
  18. I had a 88 I bought new. Replaced the engine in 96, I don't recall it being too terrible to work on. Had it back on the road in a couple of days. I was at a Pull/Pick a Part this weekend, I was amazed at how many good first series Pathfinders were available. After eight minutes of car bbq, I imagine that you will have some work to do. Good Luck
  19. Built LT1 swap stroked to 6.2 liters -Autronic standalone management -Turbonetics T91 turbo -Converted to AWD system from Typhoon/Cyclone -Built TH-400 Auto tranny with trans-brake -ZEX 200 shot direct port N2O -Fiat Seicento ignition modules
  20. One of these would do it. http://www.msdignition.com/product.aspx?id=4777&terms=tester Or you could use a function generator.
  21. That actually looks pretty good. Almost looks like "Fleckstone" texture.
