Hi All,

The 260z is my daily driver and as I have 'two shackles to the handbrake' (Wife and two kids) I needed a 2+2. The Fairlady is about to go under restoration after the 2007 Nationals in Adelaide, and the 280zx, well what can I say....great to drive to the shops on Saturday :0) or maybe a quick run on Friday a night

I would love to have a fairlady to drive for the nice days. What are parts like on em re restoration?

Like zeds, you can get most parts form the US. Nissan sold a heap of them there so they are still a popular car. Front ball joints are a bit of a problem though. No one makes replacements anymore, but there are plans afoot. www.311s.org (click the forum link).

Mr C, Yes you are right, most of the NOS parts come from the US and now most of the re-tooled stuff does as well. Not that much demand in Oz to justify the expense. I am just in the process of ordering a complete set of rubbers which is going to set me back almost A$1600. (Thanks to duty and GST) The plan now is to by it in two stages to get under the A$1000 threshold on imported goods Will post more photos as I go.
