  5. From my understandings tyres over 4 years old are no longer considered road worthy. Due to age deterioration , we threw away about 20 tyres 6 months ago at work because of this .
  6. So your saying you adjust your camber with out touching the strut or the lower control arm ? Can we see pictures ? It sounds ...different to every single zed I have ever seen. Cheers Doug
  7. The one in burleigh Queensland would be perfect for you not much rust , would be a good start for you. Sorry I would put a link but I'm on my iPhone can't figure out how to do it , but there are only 4or so on there so you will figure it out . Cheers Doug

  12. Hey thanks Gordon , we have been trying to out do each other for the last 10 years, I doubt it is going to stop now ha ha . I just need the right zed to come up for sale now ! Cheers Doug
  13. Hey guys, my name is Doug. I have been involved in Zeds for a very long time and I'm in the process of feeling the z love again. A little about my previous cars, First datsun was a mint condition 1600 that my father purchased for me ( After I threatened him with registering my motorbike ) for the princely sum of $200 with a blown head gasket, car had under 60,000 miles on it and no rust had that for about 2 years while I was doing my apprenticeship. That car ended up with a Stroker l24b with a reverse pattern 5 speed and replaced every single bush spring and worn moving part in the suspension at which point, I wrapped that around a tree or three and broke it in half , So deciding in my youth I obviously need more power, went out and bought a 73 240z from a car yard. Turned out the beast was more bog then machine . It served me for a few years even towed some of my mates Zeds with it (d3c0y) And my other project at the time (being the shagged sandblasted shell on eBay at the moment) Eventually the rust got to bad ie: the left caster rod was not really attached to the chassis rail anymore and it was parted out. After that I purchased a 70 model zed vin hs300000160. Spent a fortune on suspension and lost my licence so it sat in front of dads house for a few years until I sold it to (d3c0y) jake who then Onsold it to another rusty zed collector Magnus . At this point I gave up on Zeds and got a corolla fast forward 7 or 8 years and a few v8s later here I am . So plan is to buy a 240 with a good body and originally a l28 with a cam and triples will now be a rb25neo conversion because jake has gone out and built the worlds fastest l series and I don’t want the slowest car. Well I think I have crapped on long enough sorry about the punctuation I thought as a young lad playing with cars and planning on being a mechanic was all there was in life so didn't pay a lot of attention in highschool . Cheers Doug .
