I found whatever 15 inch tyres you want for your 15 inch rims... http://tyreshack.com.au/15-inch-tyres/bfgoodrich-radial-t/a/cat_3.html

Hey guys, Just after the Sumitomo Twin Spot Front brake calipers that people get rid of when they decided to upgrade their brakes. I'm looking for a pair in Vic if possible. Thanks Tony

I was told the Z2 was even better so try the latest version would be best? Rather than buy the old version?

Thanks for the offer Mick. I don't want to trouble you since you are quite far away, but worst case scenario you have my back. I'll just wait a few more days to see if anyone else can do it who is closer. If not expect a call Cheers Tony

Hi guys, Just looking for someone in Tas near Launceston to help me out with checking a car out. here is the link: http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/trevallyn/cars-vans-utes/datsun-240z-coupe/1024254421 Thanks Tony

I've texted him and waiting on reply.

I am interested, where are you located?

I've actually called up about the yellow 260z two seater with the l28, that was sold a long time ago from the sounds of things. I think the blue one is gone also. He sounds like he does all the work on the cars and he can source you one to a certain extent.

Here is a new one in qld for 20k http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/tannum-sands/cars-vans-utes/1973-datsun-240z-coupe/1023604344 Not sure what to say about how it looks though...

Nah, PB you are right. It's been around for a while now Tony

What other one Scoota? Tony

A couple of 240z' http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Datsun-240Z-1973/SSE-AD-2194975/?Cr=3 http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/wilson/cars-vans-utes/datsun-240z/1022110060

Sadly not. Not sure who bought it. But who ever did, did it real quick. I msged him on the day you guys posted it up.

The car is sold.

It's also on Gumtree. What do you guys think about it?

A new 240z on gumtree. http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/giralang/cars-vans-utes/1971-datsun-240z-coupe/1021441390

pm'd

Here is another one thats out of my price range. http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Datsun-240Z-1973/SSE-AD-2163639/?Cr=0

So lesson to learn is; if you find the right one keep it and don't let it go. Right? That sounds like the way everything should be applied in life. I hope I find the right one first time round; and hope a lot more that I will be able to keep it for a very long time. Point 4 is a very good point too. I'll try to go through the classifieds as often as possible; as for joining clubs i believe i was told to join the NDSOC. Is there any other clubs you would recommend?

Thank you for all your replies. It has given me a very deep insight into the adventure I have ahead. For some it seems; it has taken longer to find the perfect zed for them than I have held my licenses. The learning curve will be very steep and very sharp but I believe I am ready. The three things that seem to be most important: 1. Money 2. Time/Luck 3. Commitment It also seems to be the case of find the best you can not the best your money can buy. Unless you are a panel beater or a mechanic by trade, a lot of rust is never a good idea. Research and work on resources; don't rush and jump at the first one because you believe its for you. From the looks of things most of you guys have tried a few of the other datsuns/nissans before you jumped into the zed or played around with a few zed before jumping into the right one. Would you have done so differently if you could go back? Like wait for the right one to come up and buy it rather than going through a few shells before getting to the right one? Thank you for your time in reading and replying to this and all the replies so far.

Hi guys, Im just wondering on how long it took for you guys to find the Zed you are driving or the one you wanted to buy? Cheers Tony

We believe it belonged to SS30RR

It was up for 22k. It was grey and that's all i can remember sorry.

I believe you are right.

A new one and this one looks real nice. http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/datsun-240z-1972-14939177?base=1216&vertical=Car&cr=1&eapi=2&__N=1216%201246%201247%201252%201282%204294966615&find=240z%7cCarAll&silo=Stock&num=15&sort=default Way out of my price range though.
