Challenger Posted June 20, 2007 Author Share Posted June 20, 2007 Gokiburix where did you find that 2+2. Id like to get the color because I might consider that. Both me and my dad think the 2+2's look more like a Jag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gokiburix Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Mopar...what do you mean where did I find my 2+2? The color is close to the original 611 Wine Red Metallic (Earl Scheib did the best he could to match it...HAHA) here's a GREAT reference to the Z colors and how they look on Z's. Too bad they're not on 2+2...but you get the idea http://zhome.com/History/ZColorGallary/index.html ENJOY! -goki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evtech Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Bought mine a couple of years ago, ran some hillclimbs late last year but blew the L26 up in April 07, got an L28 in build currently going with some +1mm's (Stateside as it happens, Detroit) keeping the T3 hybrid blower passing it through a monster TB (76mm) with some 480cc injectors and an Emerald 3D ECU. Post up some progress piccys later, but the attached are links to old shots from last year. Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garvice Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Wow, What was nissan thinking when they did those bumpers, Was that a safety issue? Looks like the bumpers you expect to see on a volvo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gokiburix Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 yah...it was a safety regulation issue. I believe after 1974.5; the 260Z was the first to have the dreaded heavy bumpers. (Anyone can correct me if i'm wrong...thats just to my knowledge) I'm stuck with the rear one until I change it to the fiberglass thin bumper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted June 28, 2007 Author Share Posted June 28, 2007 Ive got both FG bumpers and Im wondering if just a smoothed out back end would look just as good. I guess Ill have to wait and see. On a side note I took the doors, fenders, hood, headlight buckets, cowl, and the inspection lids to a body shop to get the body work done on them. Theyll take it to primer so Ill have a big bill coming up soon. Any donations?? lol Is the 2+2 you found on ebay the same color as that blue fairlady 2+2?

Tony D Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 L20A, base model motor for the Japanese-spec cars. Only available motor for Japanes Spec Cars after June of 1972... Nothing but the L20A available till the S130 arrived in June of 1978... (Save for the few recalled L26's that got out there, but that's not significant enough to even mention but for the fact someone may be pedantic enough to call me on it...)
