    260Z Parts Wanted

    Sorted!
  6. I'm sure i have at least the stub axle buddy. I will PM you.
  7. No good buddy, glad you are ok! Try fitting a shorter secondary bolt and and winding back the longer one.
  8. Hey Peter, hope you are well. You may need to reclock the bracket for more adjustment, we had the same issue with the 2+2 V8 and Sam's car (for some reason my 2 seater was perfect. There are details on the interwebby on how to do this but basically it involves re positioning the second bracket for more "Pull" I can do a demo one and post pics if you like.
  9. They are the same. I have one out of the car if you want me to measure it.

    260Z Parts Wanted

    Hey Justin i have a steering Column here. I'll PM you.
  14. What do you peoples think?
  15. Yep there are parts here you can pick up and deliver, to yourself
  16. Dale and i put a bit of thought into this some time ago. Take out the sender and it's much like a hand control for a slot car. A brass needle takes reading of wire wrapped around a flat surface right! Over time the tip of that needle flattens so it then contacts more wiresthan it would if it was new. Kinda makes sense it would give you an incorrect reading. Just a theory.
  17. Yep do it. Just buy an engine and see how it fits in there. I like the sound of a project like this.
  18. Looks like i'll be fitting this on the weekend!
  19. Dales orange Zed was a rust free car supposedly. Two tiny little bubbles in the dog legs and turns out they were both shagged. If you have a rust free Zed and it hasn't had treatment to stop areas like this from degrading then it will rust.
  20. I think that's good if you can do all that for around 20K. I'm over 15K on mine just in parts, labour bumps it up to around 45K at my price. If someone else was to build it would be another 20K at least.
  21. He's chasing the actuator buddy.
  22. Everytime i look at a Zed with a perfect body i go "Looks good but what is it hiding" No doubt there are some out there that have been done correctly but unless it has fully documented repairs in a resto you should steer clear of it. Buying a rusty version has the advantage of knowing what you are getting as these cars all rust in the same area. Unless it's been garaged all it's life then it will most likely have rust forming in certain areas.
  23. I have a 260Z for sale which has been partially restored, just need the shell finished. It doesn't have the same amount of rust that others i have repaired had and i have all the panels to fix it. It has matching numbers engine and auto so a swap is something that could be done and store the original engine. It's in the link below. http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php/topic,15446.0.html
  24. You might have to return this part to cable operation. It's only for the hot/ cold function anyway. Failing that take your old one and see if a local wreckers will have something similar. They are very simple in operation.
