It appears I'm another victim - sort of... I noticed a couple of weeks ago I had a oil leak from the front of the engine, so the original 240Z harmonic balancer was whipped off only to discover a couple of serious issues... The rubber in the 40yo Balancer has started to disintegrate, which has in turn unbalanced the crank and - after consultation with Peter Mac - most likely bent the nose & no1 main on the crank Seems like Tassie might have finished it off... Don't know what I'm going to do now!

It's your car Tom, but a 'Flip Mica' paint colour IMHO will end up chipped & damaged after a few track days - even with a protective film. These paints are also notoriously hard to touch-up afterwards as well. I personally wouldn't be spending (I assuming) 6k+ on a paint job, only to have the panels chipped to the shithouse after the first track day... Flat plain colours FTW. In any case it's your Zed & it's a sweet looking paint job

Indeed. Not a suitable type of colour for a race car...

Thanks guys! Just bring a spanner and/or socket set.

This is now for sale?! WTF?! http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1971-Datsun-240z-/110862694663?pt=AU_Cars&hash=item19cfee7907

Give me a call Jason & we can organise something. You'd have to fly me up however - it's wasted time for me when I have to sit in a car for an extended period.

Your kidding, right? Do a search. Locked.

Hi All, I have lots of miscellaneous 260Z 2+2 parts I don't want any more, so on the 5th of May I'm having a clearing sale. Parts will cost a donation to the site, unless stated on the item. I'm also asking for help to strip down a S1 280ZX Auto. I just need some help to pull the motor & trans (I am keeping the L28). The rest of the car/parts are up for grabs. So bring your tools & your trailer! I'll be supplying a BBQ so BYO Food & Drinks. If anyone wants to bring parts to sell, that's OK by me. PM me for an address (I'm down near Warragul, Vic) - kickoff at 9am. Cheers!

Yikes. That freight is expensive. CDS: $987.25 AUD T45: $1,244.00 AUD Freight: $643.96 AUD

You obviously don't look under many new cars - all they are coated in underneith is just primer. Your shell is looking good though

Why do you believe you need new floor pans?

MSA or 'Reddat' on eBay.

Do that ^

Best to send Peter a PM or call him.

MEEEEOOOOOOWWW! Lolz!

I've got one I'd rather keep, but if you get desperate Mark let me know...

Topic split. Fluegel, DO NOT make a post asking for personal help in an information resource thread such as the Head ID thread started by Steve. You have been warned.

No idea mate - email them & ask, then let us know!

Made 350fwhp at 7000rpm. Time to ship your Zed down so Pete can fit the motor

If I was to do one, I'd just get this kit shipped out. Bars can be easily added/removed as you see fit, as it's only CroMo (T45). You'd just need to be aware that CAMS have changed the wall thickness for this year... http://www.customcages.co.uk/Rollcage/LoadRollCage.castle?manufacturer=Datsun&model=240Z&type=Historic
