Administrators gav240z Posted October 25, 2015 Administrators Posted October 25, 2015 But just no. It just doesn't sound right. Sorry gav. ? No need to be sorry, as much as I like the idea I just couldn't do it to my own S30s as I prefer the period correct feel myself. If I was going to do a 20b or 4 Rotor swap I'd put it in my FD rx7. I think a 4 Rotor is overkill anyway, 20b is plenty for a street driven car. 4 Rotor does sound glorious though. Quote
locklock Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 http://www.speedhunters.com/2015/10/scoot-4-rotor-240z/ Good read Did anyone notice the dashboard, door panel and 2 strut? Looks more like a 260z.. Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted October 25, 2015 Administrators Posted October 25, 2015 Good pick up. It was more than likely an RS30 chassis code car. Meaning an AU spec 260z back dated to look like a 240z instead with rear light assembly and earlier spec badges. The indicators in the fenders at the front are also 260z introduced items. But don't expect Speedhunters to get those details right. They are better than most but still quite a few inaccuracies creep in from time to time. Quote

Administrators gav240z Posted February 10, 2016 Administrators Posted February 10, 2016 It's a great car alright, I would have preferred it in a period correct 240z colour but to each their own. I do prefer the look of the Office Tomitaku S30z. A cross flow head looks at home in an S30z, it's a shame the LY cylinder heads are not more readily available. The O.S Giken head is great but really only useful on a street car. Still I wouldn't say no to an O.S Giken build myself . Quote

brent012 Posted February 13, 2016 Posted February 13, 2016 Looks a bit like a 911 from some angles. Also, in before "that's a 260Z/280Z!". Quote
Six_Shooter Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 Well it is Safari Gold !! Yeah, looks like 920 gold to me. Quote

Riceburner Posted February 16, 2016 Author Posted February 16, 2016 FuguZ http://www.speedhunters.com/2016/02/fuguz-movie-stars-car-guys/ Wow, that power output is very underwhelming! Quote

Looks like the 71 240z would be a good car to include in the early girl bingo thread. Quote
dat240z Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 That Red 240z in my opinion is perfectly on point. If I had a second Z it would be done in the same fashion. Not for the purists but what an engine/box combo and the styling just nails it Quote
Riceburner Posted October 8, 2016 Author Posted October 8, 2016 (edited) 350HP from a 3.2L on 44 mikunis and on USA pump gas... Isn't that 91 octane? Wow! http://www.speedhunters.com/2016/10/350hp-circle-track-themed-240z/ Edited October 8, 2016 by Gareth. J. Quote

Riceburner Posted October 8, 2016 Author Posted October 8, 2016 Is there any way with this engine/fuel combo for this power output to be possible? Quote
C.A.R. Posted October 8, 2016 Posted October 8, 2016 Is there any way with this engine/fuel combo for this power output to be possible? No. Max HP with 44PHH's if you theoretically machine the chokes down to a thin sleeve is barely 300hp. They just can't through enough air. I can almost guarantee that engine has never seen a dyno.

Riceburner Posted October 8, 2016 Author Posted October 8, 2016 Yeah +1 Wildy, It's a great looking ride. Are the seppo's really that gullible, 350hp is huge. Quote
KatoKid Posted October 8, 2016 Posted October 8, 2016 (edited) M3 engine uses 52mm throttle bodies to make 321 HP....just sayin Edited October 8, 2016 by KatoKid CBR Jeff 1 Quote
