Mickboy Posted October 25, 2014 Posted October 25, 2014 Hey everyone I have just picked up myself a 260z coupe, (it was posted in the third party sites for sale on here a week ago). Its gold with a l28 turbo and simmons. Its a good starting point for a project. Quote
Moderators PB260Z Posted October 25, 2014 Moderators Posted October 25, 2014 Gidday Mick Welcome, really nice looking Z you have picked up. I love the simmons V4 rims, what size are they ? Hope you enjoy the car. Looking forward to hearing what plans you have for her. Cheers PB Quote
Mickboy Posted October 26, 2014 Author Posted October 26, 2014 Thanks. I like the Simmons for now but will change them in the future. They are 16s. Not sure on the width. First thing is to get it running right and get it on club rego then slowly work on it. My brother has a panel shop down here so bodywork will probably be next. Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted October 26, 2014 Administrators Posted October 26, 2014 Does it need much bodywork done? Seemed like a steal with the L28 turbo in it. Quote
Mickboy Posted October 27, 2014 Author Posted October 27, 2014 The body isn't too bad just a few dints. The roof has been jumped On at some point and fixed poorly. The motor is very smokey. It gather it's had a hard life. It been boosted with NOS. It also has coilovers and a nice brake upgrade. It has twin pot calipers on the front and a disc brake rear. They are pbr branded. All in all I think it was a good buy. Quote
oldmates260z Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 Is this the one? That did look like a Zed with great potential, good pick up! My Zed was from Albury many years ago, glad to see you have reinstated the Zed quota. Quote
CroS13 Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 i wish this one was around when i got my bus! because id be driving it instead! Looks like it was a good buy, start a build thread on it, cant wait to see progress with it, what are your plans for her? Oh and welcome! Rudolf. Quote
Mickboy Posted October 27, 2014 Author Posted October 27, 2014 Yep that's the one. I will start a build thread soon. I am just going to make a tidy streeter out of it. Looking forward to getting it running right and getting it on club rego. I have never driven one before. Quote
