  1. I've got an STL file - so I had it made for $10 posted . I actually wanted in ABS ( which is what I think the original was), but he couldn't do it. Also the corners on the original were a bit more rounded
  2. its the one at the TOP of the picture
  3. After a monumental failure to locate an original ashtray lid, i decided to have one 3d printed . it came out OK mainly because the original lid has a bit of a texture at the top However, I cant work how it goes on. The base has pins cast into it, whereas the lid just has holes inside the mounting legs. Obviously it does not fit see photo are the holes in the lid supposed to be slots so they can be pushed onto the posts? There's also meant to be tiny coli spring the holds it shut. Does anyone have one I can copy or at least a photo?
  4. if anyone has these i believe the jack is the same as datto 1200 and has a rectangular base
  5. my plate says complianced 9/71 #01132. so that makes sense as an ausie delivered car?
  6. never been fitted, here's some pics of the covers ( dont come with these trims)
  7. here are the pics
  8. for the ultimate JDM look, really good condition, original factory there were 2 types with different hole offsets, so check that this one is suitable i have a source for the clip kits and the plexiglass, if interested save $s on US conversion and shipping best offer pics in a sec
  9. will you sell me the a/c brackets and comp?
  10. thanks, i'll give him a call. in the video, the guy gets the whole job done in about an hour, so it looks easy for someone who knows what they re doing
  11. apologies for the bad wording ABSENCE of shims is _definitely_ the root cause for the awful squealing
  12. yes and the fluid has been changes - no sign off metal particles in the oil
  13. Hello all, To start off, I'm not much of a diff guy, so here goes I noticed that I'm starting to get a bit of a clunking noise from the diff on 1. when taking off in reverse 2.on sharp gearchanges what's been done? g.box fully rebuiilt new universals all round new diff mount ( series 1, forward diff, too me ages to find a replacement) no grinding/whining noise from the diff otherwise ( when coasting in neutral) i had a look at this great youtube video and i defintely dont have all the tools so my question is 1. what could it be ? slop in the crown/pinion? worn pin in the centre "spider" 2. is there a good diff guy in melbourne?
  14. a year later and i can confirm that the shims are _definitely_ the root cause for the awful squealing the brakes do chirp once they get a bit of heat, but overall good as gold i'm going with the theory that its do with a slight skew of the pads in the basic design and therefore the vibration harmonics as far as a i can tell, the main differences with the z and modern design is that the new pads tend to be much longer
  15. close, but no cigar. my one has it in the console, in front of the gearstick https://www.carsguide.com.au/car-news/my-1970-datsun-240z-27139 its an L-shaped bracket that bolts to the tunnel easy enough to copy - if i have an original one
  16. if anyone has one
  17. i dont know they sold them i was looking at the one from jdm-car parts, but they only sell the whole assembly and it looks like its a cheap ass version done on a 3d printer
  18. Will anyone in Melb let me take a mold of their ashtray lid? I plan to do it using blutac, so it will not damage your ashtray I've been chasing this bastard part for a year and all I can find is a complete assembly in US for mega $s thanks
  19. what's with the frenzy of 240/260 on gumtree? is every just dumping stock non stop? everything's out - 240 rust wrecks, 2+2 by the dozen. i've never seen so many
  20. what have you got?
  21. well the fiche shows a plastic one and NO tab and 2 part numbers 21475-E4100 21475-E4102 this https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/57183-unicorn-alert-240z-fan-shroud/ guy reckons 4102 is the metal version, so 4100 shows in jdmjunkies must be the plastic one. it would make sense they would be standard with a.c cars to me
  22. i have to ask - have you been collecting all these steering wheels for 50 years?
  23. thanks h30-h. are the guy who was planning to make some jdm headlight cover copies?
  24. not 240, maybe 180b
