Cuprafenix Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Hi, here in Europe I don't seem to find a rubber kit for a 260Z 2+2. Is it the same as a 280Z 2+2? The car is a 1974 spec. Where can I find such a rubber kit? Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators gav240z Posted April 11, 2017 Administrators Share Posted April 11, 2017 Only kit I know of (off the top of my head) is this. http://www.scottsoldautorubber.com.au/Datsun%201969-78%20240Z-260Z.htm But feedback is mixed with regard to this supplier.

Cuprafenix Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 I've talked to him and he says he has the kit Regarding the feedback I'm also afraid. I has to be spot on because freturning it back to Autralia would be a nightmare. I've also talked with the guys from Z car depot, they say that almos everything from their 280Z 2+2 model is compatible with exception of the rubber doors that have to be slightly modified. https://zcardepot.com/weatherstripping/kits/complete-15-pc-weatherstrip-set-rubber-seal-kit-2-2.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilltech Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 FWIW the later Zeds had more weather stripping profiles around the doors than the early cars like yours, so if you buy their kit you will most likely have a couple of redundant items. I can advise that some 'kits', in the past anyway, haven't included the rubbers for bedding in of the quarter window glass, so I suggest that whoever you go with, have them send you a listing of what is in the kit prior to placing your order so you know what you're getting.
