SSS-S30

Just wanted to give everybody a heads up... I was able to pick up this week a set of 8 D-sided bolts PN 38228-21000 for the side axles. Got them at $2.83 ea from Rosenthal Nissan in Vienna, VA.

EvilC, How much you were quoted for a Nissan Comp pan and who still carries it? I was unsuccessful trying to find the cost on the Courtesy Nissan website.

gmac708, That will be an awesome beast when it's done!!! Don't mean to take this thread off topic but 2 questions for you: did you need a spacer for the fronts with the -13 offset, if so what size spacer? And is that the Kameari seat you have installed?

Thanks 240Z. Did 99996-E1130 supersede 99996-E1131?

Anybody know the PN for the pan?

So you are the lucky winner of the pan on eBay about 2-3 weeks ago.

Pics look great. Can't wait till the axle stubs are available.

Well, he is in your neck of the woods Tony D. I'm so jealous of you guys on the West Coast, so many deals to be had on craigslist vs what's for sale on the east coast.

I figured that since he is selling it for $850, it can't be a real FIA head which would probably worth several thousand $. I've searched for more info on the FIA heads and only found the post with HS30-H's pics of the FIA L6 Safari head. Seems there is not a lot of info available on these FIA heads. By the way, thanks for your response Tony D. I have been lurking on the site for a while and always find your posts, along with posts from others, very informative.

So I'm browsing through the West Coast craigslist ads and I see this: "A brand new L-6 series racing head for 240/260 series motors. This is a factory competition cast head with smaller combustion chamber & larger ports. Last of these heads to be imported into US by Nissan Competition (NISMO) Purchased out of stock in 1996. Not available anywhere. Never mounted, bare head, in box. Those Datsun collectors will know what this part is worth. Paid $1,200 for head, as I was a Nissan racer out of the Electramotive shop." Unfortunately he didn't post any pics or any info regarding the casting number. I don't remember ever seeing a Nissan factory comp. head for the L6 listed in the old Datsun Comp. catalogs. Wasn't the LY head the only factory race cylinder head made by Nissan for the L6? On a another note, post # 1 for me.

I'll be interested in a set when they become available.
