  1. I want to know who sells roof racks for an F40. I wouldn't image the demand is that high.
  2. I would agree with that, what about the R31 Ti, drop turbo running gear in it and have an unusual sleeper.
  3. That, in my opinion is one of the key drivers of "collectability"
  4. Yeah, The SXV will surely be one to watch - it is rare and being a Subaru there should be good availability of alternative and more powerful engines. There is one for sale at the moment for $8,000
  5. Looks good, sure beats cutting out rust and fixing damage.
  6. I was thinking the same thing. Looking forward to seeing what cover the car ends up with.
  7. Turns out that I will be in Tamworth that weekend, so definately not possible.
  8. The scarcity of 240K's will also assist driving values up.
  9. You would need a good eye to pick that as a 240K
  10. Tempting, but would be a seriously early start in Sydney to be there by 8:30am
  11. That car was nowhere near as bad as I was expecting it to be. I was waiting to see firewalls made of chicken wire and filler.
  12. That is fantastic news, I trust that both Kylie and Benjamin are doing well ?
  13. Hi, Just be sure that the retaining ring is a match to rubber shifter boot you are using. Cheers PB
  14. Hi Mate You are develping some solid skills. Interesting to look at the inner surfaces of that tailgate shell, no wonder Z's are prone to rust. These days cars are dipped to ensure every single crevice is coated, that combined with adviances in steel technology have greatly reduced the threat posed by rust. Cheers PB
  15. Hi Mark Looks like a very productive Easter weekend. You are making great progress, keep it up. Cheers PB
  16. Hi Mate Have you tried Stewart Wilkins AllZparts (when Warren is back from hospital) Cheers PB
  17. That is a pretty impressive KW number. What ecu are you running and can it run a fuel flex sensor ?
  18. I am still amazed at the values for 240K's, in the mid 80's they were throw away things Wish I could work out what todays version of the throw away 240K is ? Maybe the Mitsubishi 380 VRX/GT ?
  19. Hi Mate You will neec to trim the hole in the floor fowards to front edge of double sheet section. You will also find that there are marks in the tunnel that align with the holes in the rubber. Drill them out and fit some nutserts and everything will align perfectly. The shift boot retainer ring looks like this. http://www.zcarsource.com/inner-shift-boot-ring-240z-260z-280z-72-78-used_8_56359_61472.html Cheers PB
  20. Hi Guessing that you are looking to join a club that is part of the Historic Plate scheme ? Cheers PB
  21. Hi I went past the warehouse yesterday and it looks exactly the same as every other time with no sign of recent cleaning up. I saw Warren about two weeks back and he was really struggling to get around and especially up the stairs. I would imagine a knee replacement will have him off the air for a few weeks ? Cheers PB
  22. Hi, Yes you will need to lift the motor, not take it out just lift it. It is fiddly and can be messy but doable. undo the engine mount bolts and jack it up carefully (watching for fan clearance etc) on the front of the bellhousing then chock the mount faces If you are not confident, best to get help with this one. Cheers
  23. HI, Decoy is on the money. When I put the 280ZX box in my car the 280ZX gearlever was hitting the front of the console. I grabbed a 260Z shifter and that fixed the problem. Cheers PB
  24. Hi Andrew The temp gauge will always move slowly it is designed that way. The oil pressure reading you mention sound about right. The oil pressure will rise quicker when the engine is restarted there are two main reason for this. The oil won't have drained entirely back into the sump Warm oil flows faster. Cheers PB
