Some amazing stuff in that collection. I really can't believe that they still let public loose on the track in road cars with no separation based on performance.
Hi Guys
Looking for anyone who can pick up a set of 4 Alloys (with tyres) from Melbourne and deliver to Sydney
When: December or January
Pick Up : Eastern surburbs of Melbourne - Dimitri's place
Drop off : Anywhere in Sydney or even within a hour or three thereof.
Happy to compensate for reasonable costs.
Cheers

Hi Benny
When I needed a custom fuel line for the old Chev I just took the detail of what I needed to the local Pirtek branch and they knocked it up with the brass fittings etc in next to no time for about $50.

Nice work Ian, will have a much closer look a little on.
The number of 260Z's on the road is a lot lower than I thought.
It is a real shame that in Aus we don't have the SOAR or similar whereby a car is not registered for road use but is still on the register as existing.

Earthing via the unit chassis or casing is the reason why a lot of car audio gear will say "suitable for negative earth vehicles only"
Poor earths are one of the most common reason reasons for issues in auto electrics.

This build just keeps getting better.
If you all get together in Canberra maybe a few of the Sydney guys might make the journey as well ?
Geetng very very close to finished.

I would say that the negative for the unit is achieved through metal casing, you will often find screw and nut on the back to hook an earth wire to.

Hi Andrew
That is one very neat starting point. You don't often see Z's come out of dipping looking that solid.
Can't wait to see the next steps.

Welcome aboard.
Photo's not a rule but definately a good idea.
Sounds like a reasonably solid car and I like thatbyou have a plan that includes getting someone in the know to check it out for rust.
Good luck, and look forward to seeing more photos.
Cheers

Gidday,
I agree woth the previous comments, get someone with a good reputation and experience in Z rust issues to have a look at it.
Rust is usually like an iceberg - you can only see the tip of it.

Welcome,
As George said a lot of us are learning as we go, so don't stress on that front.
Remember there are no stupid questions ony stupid answers.
