  1. I have a 72 240z with a L28 and 280z distributor. All was working in the ignition department and she was driving. Took her out for a drive and then she sat a few days and not there is no spark. Now when I have the key on the ballast resistor and ignition coil are getting hot. Ant suggestions? I do have a question about one wire that is not being used and it looks like it may go to the where the distributor mounts. Should it be hooked up? I bought the following: PerTronix Flame-Thrower II New Distributor Pickup Coil Rotor & Cap I want to run the PerTronix Flame-Thrower II so I can remove the ballast resistor.
  2. I got a pair of barley used 370z seats. Fit great, I just need to install new floor pan before I mount them.
  3. What kind of issues are you having? I was looking at them in British Tan for my 240z
  4. I have kicked the idea around buying a totaled Chevy Spark EV and swapping its components in the Z. The Spark has an astonishing 400 lb-ft of torque. You could probaly grab a Spark for IAA for$2-$3k
  5. Great now I have to go with another color... I am leaning toward Toyota's Cement:
  6. I would not keep the front driveshafts guts
  7. I am a subie guy...well I have owned 2 Saabarus I am wondering if could mate the L28 to a Subaru 5spd tran, drive shaft, dif, axles. I cut the and weld to the datsun hubs?
  8. Would you be willing to make a set for me? if so, PM your price...
  9. Does the subie 5spd line with the stock shifter location?
  10. Off topic question...can you see if the seats from the mazda3 would fit. I loved my Mazdaspeed3 seats and always wondered if they or the mazda3 seats fit. Thanks
  11. so no new news... I can grab a miata minus driveline for $199...Just wondering about mated the front and rear suspension to one of my 240z's
  12. I am 5 min from Datsun Spirit...how much did he quote for the rust repair?
  13. Both my Z's were bought in VA and are pretty rusted
  14. Here is one for you... Original Datsun 1976 280Z - $19000 (Wake Forest) http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/cto/5140354647.html
  15. A used S52 can be had for around $2000...sure but I would not throw a used S52 in my car. I had a 99 ///M3 and had the head rebuild and that was a cheap bill to pay!
  16. BMW motor would be great, but not the S50/52 due to the cost of them. I would go M50/M52 turbo. lots of them making over 400HP
  17. Datsun Spirit is 10 minutes from my house. I have already talked to Eiji about doing a STR 1 on my spare L28 but that price! I am new to the L-series and I guess the sticker shock of these motors has not sunk in. Do you feel that using Eiji's motors helps increase and hold the value of the 240z?
  18. I am in thes ame boat, but I have a 72 with a cam'd L28, suspension mods...ect and a stock 73. I would like to build one to sell and use the profit from that one to pay for the 2nd to be built for me. So, I can tune up the 72 which needs paint and interior or put a L28(which I have a spare) or drop a SBC in the 73? Hard to say what would bring more money...
