Cruez Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Hey guys, I am going by a junkyard (hopefully this weekend) that is full of 1st gen Z's here in North Carolina ... I talked with him last night about a few parts and he notified me that he was taking quite a few to the crusher... While I was there, I thought that if there is anything anyone would like for me to keep my eyes open for, I could pick it up... I would hate to have some parts gone forever without having a chance to be used.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 are there any ZXs? if there is I am looking for the Borg Warner 81-83 5 speed and driveshaft from a 280zxt. Can't think of any S30 parts that I ned right now except well maybe a metal drivers side headlight bucket. And if they have some headlight covers...well that is not likely.

zero Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 hey, I have a bw t5 out of a zxt. If you have a nissan 5spd I would be willing to trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 I have a 260Z 4 speed with 6 BRAND NEW roll pins. The synchros are good too. I removed the gearbox from the bellhousing and replaced all of the roll pins and inspected everything else. It needs a new main input bearing which I have and will be included with the tranny. I just could not remove the bearing with my small amount of tools. A professional shop could do it no problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj paul Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 get all the z's and restore them all! we can't let them be taken!!!! lol. thats what i did with mine, mine was definately crusher material. (just make sure to have a few years handy) lol. are their front fenders in decent shape? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimp1911 Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 I would say check the vins and save the lowest one. If possible. Rust has a way of making you look at Z's differently. Lol. But on a side note. I do need a rear view mirror. I have a 72. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdizzy204 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 i might need a driver side door from a 240z and a uncracked 73 dash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruez Posted May 18, 2006 Author Share Posted May 18, 2006 Little behind.... but there is some stuff still left... but you would have to go over it pretty good to be sure that its still a good part... Bumpers.... not likely.. Door.... maybe I only got a few interior pieces that were good.. most of the consoles were gone or cracked...
