  1. Hello members, I have decided to rebuild the Zed. Engine and box replacement and a bare metal respray. I have decided to sell the Chev and supra box and source a RB26DETT with a RB25DET 5 speed. Lots to do and heaps of work ahead of me so I thought I would keep track of the whole build and tell my story. Starting the stripping down.
  2. Handsandwhich thanks for that. I am after a new or secondhand in perfect condition.
  3. I need a replacement console. If anyone has one or know where I can get one please? Graeme
  4. Scrap the spoiler i do like it, maybe another brand would be better. G
  5. Do you still have the steering shaft from the coupler to the rack? Graeme
  6. I am after a steering shaft. Its the part from the coupler in the engine bay down to the the rack. If anyone knows anyone? Thanks Graeme
  7. Very interesting reading Saxxon. I have a 350 Chev in my 2 seater. For what its worth in the weight department, as part of my engineers certificate i had to have the car weighed. It came in 50 kg heavier than when it had the six in it. Weight distribution still 50:50. Cheers Graedat
  8. I needed a laugh and i seem to always get one here. Cheers guys
  9. Hello, is anyone heading to the island tomorrow to do some practice? I will be down there with the wifes escort (the zeds not quite ready ) Cheers Grae
  10. PM sent.
  11. No problem Simon. let me know when you can come down my way and we can have a look. If you have any special specs you want to follow that's cool too. Otherwise i have most car specs from 61 to 2003.
  12. Richard, if you want a hand measuring your exact camber and castor i may be able to help. I have a hoist and a 4 wheel alignment machine that makes adjustment and correction a breeze. Happy to help out any fellow zed owners also. Graeme
  13. Standard swaybar for a 77 260z 2 seater. I have removed the strap on the diff and replaced it with a cradle and chev tranny mount. I have picks somewhere but need to hunt them down. So the diff dosent move much but it has always been close to the swaybar even with the strap? G
  14. whooops!! you guys crack me up lol. And all posted so soon. I meant to say... when i accellerate and then back off my rear swaybar is rubbing against my prop shaft? All seems to be mounted correctly i have used a fresh batch of super pro bushes on the swaybars. But my rear swaybar is very close to the prop shaft. Does anyone have a good fix for this? Graeme
  15. ok guys and girls. I have put my car
  16. Has anyone tried these radiators? They look the goods and cheap as well!! I have 77 260z so figured this would suit mine. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160527848511&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT
  17. oh i had better look into that. I wonder if it applies to a roadworthy and engineered car? Who in NDSOC can i contact for further info does anyone know?? Oooops hijacking again
  18. Nice 260z there!! If i had the spare coin i would probably pay 25,000 for this its certainly worth that i reckon. I would personally keep the car and club reg it. A fraction of the price to keep on the road and with the new changes in Feb and the 90 days its well worth doing it now. Thats the way i have gone and cant wait to get her back on the road. Cheers Graedat
  19. I have just converted the v8 from LPG to carby. I kept the standard fuel tank so it went back in but this meant i had to build a new exhaust system. So i thought i would give it a go myself. I need to improve my welding i think! Here are some pics for the v8 guys!
  20. Anyone one noticed this sweet ride! But at $85,000 ??? http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars/private/details.aspx?R=8384241&__sid=12686BD2782C&__Qpb=true&Cr=0&__Ns=pCar_RankSort_Int32%7c1%7c%7cpCar_PriceSort_Decimal%7c1%7c%7cpCar_Make_String%7c0%7c%7cpCar_Model_String%7c0&keywords=&__N=1216%201246%201247%201252%201282%204294966615%204294966408%20903&seot=1&tsrc=allcarhome&__Nne=15&trecs=2&silo=1011
  21. I am definately going club plates. I contacted NDSOC and have the paper work, just have to organise a time for the club to view the car. When the new scheme finally comes in, it will be an incentive to drive my car more often.
