24 Dat

Challenge Bathurst is on again this year and the ZCCQ is organizing Group Z Regularity😎 which is run on the 23rd and 24th of November and we will run the Festival of Z again similar to 2019 will be from 21st to the 24th, for those who didn’t see what we did in 2019 here’s a link to the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsMzlHmmOg4 and here is a link to the CB website https://www.challengebathurst.com/ This year we are celebrating the 55th anniversary of the 240Z and the 50th of the 260Z. The Festival of Z is still in the planning phase, but we already have an amazing room booked for the Saturday night function and we have access to the corporate suites above Group Z garages 1-4 that overlooks Pitlane Straight, Hell Corner and up Mountain Straight. (more on the Festival of Z in later posts) It is expected Group Z will be filled with Z’s only, all past competitors in Group Z in Z’s were emailed Eoi’s on the 16th of February. (If you didn’t get the email, please email me asap.) If you have a Z or ZX and you would like to take this amazing opportunity to drive on one of the 4 best racetracks in the world Mount Panorama, please DM me, and I will contact you to discuss your car and your past track experience to see if you have what it takes to join us in Group Z.

Thank you @HS30-Hmuch appreciated

Hi all, Does anyone have any idea of when the Australian 240Z's changed from the fiberglass Sugar scoops to the steel ones?

Happy Birthday @gav240z i hope you have a great day and thanks for keeping the forum going over the years its is a very valuable resource for all of us Z owners

This just in sad news, the organizing committee has done a huge about of work to try and get the event to go ahead. " As you may have heard, due to unforeseen circumstances we have had to make the tough decision to postpone the Nissan-Datsun Nationals 2023 event. We have had a lot of discussions over the last few weeks to try and keep the event progressing but with challenges in locking in corporate sponsorship and lower than anticipated entrant numbers we have had to choose the difficult but only viable option, given the circumstances. We understand there will be a lot of disappointment, it's safe to say that everyone involved is gutted to have to make this call and we apologise for any inconvenience this has caused. The good news is that this is not the end for the Nissan-Datsun Nationals 2023. We're in the process of rescheduling it to a date in 2024 and we'll keep everyone posted when we have the date locked in. One thing we have agreed on is that it will not be over the Easter weekend in 2024, as we have had a lot of feedback from people wishing they could be there if it had not been over the long weekend. After the dust settles on the postponement, the organising committee will be back to start planning the event in 2024 using everything we have learned so far. If you have purchased any merchandise, please get in touch so we can work out if we continue with the order. In the meantime if you have any questions or concerns, please get in contact at ndn23@zcarclubq.org.au. Please have a happy and safe Easter, and we look forward to seeing you at the rescheduled NDN23 - held in '24 Regards, NDN23 Organising Committee

Additional note how the balancing drill holes are in very different places on the 2 cranks

Hi all, I have 2 x cranks, both have P3040 cast markings. At the flywheel end of the crank one has a 36-0 marking and the other 42-1 Does anyone know what the differences are in these cranks Thanks in advance

Super Cool @ScottyD and congrats to the Z Car Club of NSW for the top effort, looks like a great couple of days. I'm sure I'm not the only one jealous of you all. Thanks for posting

Is it just me or does the engine bay look like its 903 Universal Blue compared to the exterior colour of 115? Being a 71 car i didn't think the 115 was available until 72

Hey @gav240z i reckon it would very nice in Blue or White with the blue interior

Looks like a basic and sports model as well as a limited release model (Check out the link) https://www.motortrend.com/news/2023-nissan-z-chassis-code-z34/?fbclid=IwAR1S03dH2SYDPmTtjfx1zAeY088mntof1s8ft6Q2qlD8Dr2K_EBlsSPokYY
