  1. I dropped some pics in the buildup area. I have been told it's bored out to a 3 litre too. The price excluded taxes on arrival but I am in the logistics business so the freight and associated charges (other than gov't statutory charges) were "taken care of"

    Glovebox Lid

    good point and done! I am based in Perth but willing to go anywhere. Will check out the recommendations you made ... thanks
  3. Some photos. Here's my first stupid question. In the engine bay there is a bottle on the drivers side. I am not really sure what this is. Is it some kind of vacuum reservoir??? I am a bit of a dill on that kinda stuff. the engine is already out and being worked on
  4. Hi guys, I did a bit of a history in the intro area about this nice little 73 I picked up and imported from Japan. It needs alot of work but nothing too serious. Without pulling the motor apart so far we know it has: Read LSD 3.5inch exhaust off the headers L28 EFI motor Chrome Molley flywheel Lumpy Cam Watanabe rims (not shown in pics on car) Bride driver racing seat A bit of surface rust but nothing serious Airconditioning (no pump anymore but will fix that!) Rear as been gusseted for strength Plans as follows: Engine rebuild (just for the hell of it and to see what's been done) Watanabes brought back to original Full respray new carpets Dash reskin (surprise surprise) New interior All new rubbers New front rotors It's really straight which is a bonus and the plan is to pretty much try and get it back into original shape more or less (without swapping motors etc...) Some pics to follow when resized
  5. Hi all Have been lurking around for a bit. A bit of a story but had a good friend up in Japan on business who drove past a 240Z on the side of the road outside Tokyo. Long story short he stopped and spoke to the owner, gave me a call and before we knew it I owned a 73 240Z and he had a 1600 2 door coupe! Luckily we bought them several months ago when the dollar value was really good and we imported them at Christmas time. So now I am the proud owner of a little red 240Z with a L28 EFI motor, LSD, Nice lumpy Cam, bride race seat, gussetted and struts for body stability, watanabe rims, 3.5 inch exhaust from the headers and a few other nice engine modifications. All this for AUD 8K which made my day BIG TIME (especially as it has only 45000 on the clock and has been stored for a very long time) However it needs a little work. I have ordered new BRE front air dam, rear spoiler, all new bushes, slotted rotors and all rubbers for the car plus a complete new interior and most other things I can get my hands on. the door skins need to be redone but there is no cancer in it other than a few surface paint chip type issues which will be easily rectified. I hope to have the complete rebuild and respray done within the next 3 months (parts permitting) to say I am stoked and well and truly hooked is an understatement. Once it's on the road I will use it as my Sunday driver and also racing with the Vintage and Classic Car Club in perth.
