  1. LOL!! Tears in my eyes couldn't finish reading! Anyway I am up for a weekend meet. Sunday arvo BBQ sounds great.
  2. Have you got any photos?
  3. Sorry guys I am going to have to bail on this one. Have to go away to Marborough for work. Sushi, are you still going to be in Maleny on the weekend?
  4. Does anyone have/know how I could get my hands on a set of rear quarter window seals for my 240z? I don't want to have to buy a whole car seal kit just to get these two seals. Any help much appreciated.
  5. I'm in Windsor (Brisbane) Green 73' 240z (in shop at moment). Can you make it next weeks meet at indo shopping centre car park if goes ahead?
  6. Sounds good sushi. I'm in. Lets wait and see response before agreeing details.
  7. I did notice that a month ago there where about 6 for sale across Australia, but since release of the 370Z and all the press comparing it to the original and the best, they have now all been snapped up... Keep looking guys, it took me several months to find my beauty. Good luck
  8. So how did you all go yesterday? Any photos or vids? I am still keen to catch up this weekend for anyone who also couldn't make it yesterday. BBQ or drive out to watch the dirt Motohana??
  9. OK, any sunday BBQ suits me from the 19th. If you guys want to do it earlier go for it.
  10. So Sushi, How does the 19th July sound? Mt Cootha or Kingsford Smith Memorial? Doug
  11. Hey guys, If you are based in QLD, Suncorp own GIO and I just got a quote from them from their vintage and vetran insurance for $99 per year full comp covering car worth $16K... Can't believe I was paying $400 with aami for nowhere near as much cover.
  12. Mate, Did anyone take those rear discs and calipers from you? Did you have a price in mind? Doug
  13. Brake upgrade still up for debate, but either R31/32 calipers or the standard hilux bolt on job. Will keep you informed.
  14. Perfect. I'll hunt out the Newmarket guys. Cheers. Car in the shop at the moment having its wonderful? GT go fast stripes painted over. Plus some other goodies like brake upgrade.
  15. Australian Top Gear is rubbish compared with the real thing. Those guys are annoying and now they have a trumpet player...Monday nights work for me and would love to have my first meet up with you guys over the coming weeks.
  16. Welcome. That certainly is a project! I like your wheels
  17. Welcome Dru, I just picked up my first 240Z off ebay in QLD. Real nice, will post photos when we get her home. If you are in love after seeing pics on this site, just wait till you drive one, nothing quite compares.
  18. Thanks guys.
  19. Do you guys know of anyone in Brisbane who can do a 240 gearbox refurb? 2nd, 3rd and 4th crunching...Not good.
  20. With out a doubt buying a R32 or R33 would be cheaper than 240z conversion, but where is the fun in that. I love my Datsuns too much to sell out for a 90's Nissan. Would prefer the 90's tech in 70's style... Plus I've driven/am driving modern cars and they become so same same. Want character.
  21. Thanks guys. I was not looking at doing the work myself, but considering purchasing a 240z with the conversion in place and running. At the moment I have the option of getting a standard 240z with good body and L28 engine and no work required or a 240z with RB20DET, but with body work and interior work required... Think I'll have to weigh up the pros and cons of each. Thanks again.
  22. For non track purposes is a conversion worth the time/money/effort? For a 240/260z of course.. Just thought I would throw it out there for comment. I'm a new guy by the way, in Brisbane. Doug
