boost Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 G'day guys, Though I might introduce myself seeing as I'm planning on purchasing a Z to restore and will be more active on this forum. I have always liked the 240/260z 2 seaters but it was a toss between purchasing a Z to restore or building a clubman from the ground up. I made the decision 5 years ago to build a clubman instead and put the Z project aside until I have built and registered the clubman. 5 years has passed, the clubman went through the whole engineering process and passed and is now on the road. That means it's time to start looking for a Z. I have post on the Wanted section of the forum looking for the right 240/260z. This is the clubman as is. Still needs to be painted. Hoping to find the right car soon! Cheers Steve Quote
Z Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 How does the Honda 2L go in a car that light? Quote
boost Posted February 25, 2015 Author Posted February 25, 2015 How do you know its got a 2L under the bonnet? Quote
PeterAllen Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Pretty obvious its got a S2000 engine, gearbox and diff. Quote
boost Posted February 25, 2015 Author Posted February 25, 2015 Why is it obvious Peter ? It could be a 4age 20V or a SR20DET ? The performance isn't too bad I guess. Could do with a turbo strap to it but I'll enjoy driving it for at least a year before I tinker with it again. Quote
PeterAllen Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Why is it obvious Peter ? ... Because I'd just read your build thread in full. Great stuff, very inspiring. Quote
boost Posted February 25, 2015 Author Posted February 25, 2015 Thanks. I wonder if I have gained enough experience during the clubman build to tackle a full resto ? Quote
AK Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Hi Steve Nice job on the clubman - good skills! Don't think it needs paint - looks great now. Good luck finding a good Z if I see something I will let you know Cheers AK C G'day guys, Though I might introduce myself seeing as I'm planning on purchasing a Z to restore and will be more active on this forum.
