Doing them in a 15X8 0 offset would be the bomb!

Anyone have some pictures to post from the 2020 ZCON Trackday & Autocross?

Have not had much luck searching and finding threads on performance oil pans for our L6 motors, so went out on my own on this one and am currently building a higher capacity oil pan. Do enjoy quite a few track days in my old beater, have had good luck with current oil pan on tracks with long straights such as Road Atlanta, and tracks with some banking to them such as Daytona on a stock pan. However have had the inclination to do a pan ever since getting a LD28 Maxima pan when I pulled the crankshaft out. This pan definitely has more capacity and with the "wings" has some metering to it when the oil sloshes from side to side. Looking at it to me seemed like it could be an improvement over stock. There are a couple of questions though such as the inside of the pan and the baffles, does anyone here have any suggestions on them or do they look good as they are?

Would consider looking around at some Laurel pans, or other cars that had a L6 pan and mod one unless you get lucky and find a LD28 center sump pan

Good time, did the auto-X and track day. Looking forward to next year and doing the Z NAtionals track day.

Who all is going to 2018 ZCON at Atlanta this year and what events are you participating in? Auto-X, track Day, spectate car show and banquet for me!

Had Pirelli Webbing in my 9/72 240Z, the black spacers are for adjusting seat height and came installed under the seat attachment bolts

Keith, hope to see you there, took car out Saturday and ran with some Porsches and a viper this last Saturday ran pretty strong so good to go for Friday at Road Atlanta. Who else is going or am I only one representing the HYBRIDZ group?

Just got my bottom end back from local machine shop, had been talking to Slovers a while back about doing my head but after reading your post I am very concerned about trusting his shop after reading your post. Would you do business with them again? PM'd you if you want to answer there.

Rebekahs Z, hope you have your cage ready to go and see you there.

Fair number of the newer stuff but a very respectable show of the S30 models for the track day, take a look a the video's from the website znationals.com and should give you a fair answer to your question.

My those are pretty sweet any chance of 6 for my 44 Mikunis?

It is that time of year again to start making plans for the Z Nationals, great event last year, with a huge car show and awesome track day at Road Atlanta. Hopefully Keith wont have any excuses not to attend this year. Not sure if I might bring the 510 this year for something different at the car show, or bring the faithful Z to have fun with on the track. Let the smack talking begin! znationals.com 10/13/17 Track day at Road Atlanta 10/14/17 Car show at Cool Ray Field and banquet dinner following show

Not sure why the quote is not coming up, but referring to the comment about OP being irritating to someone for asking about pictures. Any thought to the fact that this gentleman said he was currently deployed to Afghanistan, so it might be a little difficult to go crawl around a Z and analyze these spots your saying for him to study? Thank you sir for serving our country.

Got it sorted out, turns out it was the pin between the lock cylinder and the switch had a twist in it and was not allowing the start circuit of the switch to engage fully. Little twist back into that shaft and good to go!

Did some searching and found several post's for similar issues but did not find specific answers so here goes and thanks for any answers that are given. I have a old 72 240Z that I track when I have the opportunity the issue is it wont start, starter motor is not turning over. Checked voltage at solenoid on small wire when ignition switch is at start position, no voltage Checked voltage at black and yellow wire at starter switch when on start position and am getting 12 volts There is a relay on passenger side under dash by the blower/fan motor, this relay clicks when turning ignition switch on and to start position White and red wire has constant 12 volt supply and then the other wires have power when ignition switch is turned with exception of black wire. Looked up P/N for this relay 2530-E4100 and it was listed on the microfiche as a back window relay? Looked at the factory Nissan wire diagrams and see that a relay is listed for a A/T car. Took a screwdriver and went from positive terminal of starter from battery to small wire on solenoid and car started. Just wanted to clarify couple of things: If I put a ohm meter between BLK/YEL wire of ignition switch and starter should there be continuity or is there a relay between these two points that would show an open circuit? Does the relay on the passenger side previously described play any part in this? Once again thanks for any help tat you can give me, absolutely hopeless with electrical stuff

Just took the 510 out to run it this year after being laid up for the last 3 years, went to turn over the motor and find that I get a 1/4 revolution on it and it is locked up on either side of the revolution. Guessing I have some valves also hanging up. First time I have ever had a issue with Datsun motor like this.

Usually there are 4 mounting points on the engine stands, bolt these to the back of the engine block 2ea at the top of the flywheel (12 oclock position) the other two mounting points are on the side of the flywheel (3 & 9 oclock position). You can use head bolts from L series or head bolts from a Honda civic motor if I remember right and then just use spacers and washers as needed. Good luck

Keep in mind that the seat has four attachment points where as the buckle for the seat belt has one! With that said the floor mounts are pretty thin use discretion in your final install

Remember it well!

Looking for a manifold for a set of 44 Mikuni's please PM if you have one for sale

Curious to know if it is back from paint shop Definitely a beautiful Z and a inspiration to us all

With you on the R888 on my 3rd set used for track days, however think that a LS1 will definitely spin any tire in a 245 size without too much issue Run Fuzions on my RSX Type S, for $70 a tire really nothing to complain about they are round plenty f grip for street driving and never squeal when pushed
