This car is in a good condition considering the vintage of the car. Here's a bit of information on the car: The car is improved with PERIOD CORRECT parts in the following aspects: - More powerful L28 2.8 Litre engine (the original L26 has been known to be much less powerful) - Triple Mikuni 40PHH Carburetors with 45mm air horns with steel linkage (These carburetors are known to be the most suitable for street driving) - The carbs has been professionally dyno tuned by Allcraft Automotive - Canon Intake Manifold from USA - Custom air filter made by Unifilter (the carb spacing is uniquely different from car to car, especially depending on different intake manifolds available on the market) - 2.5 inch stainless exhaust system manifold back, linked to a 6 - 2 - 1 Exhaust manifold - RS Watanabe Style alloy wheels - Staggered Fitment 17x7.5 Front and Deep dish 17 x 9.5 Rear (New tyres would be required for Roadworthy) - 5 speed manual transmission (most of the stock on market at time of writing are equiped with the much less potent 3 speed automatic transmission) - Defi Advanced ZD Gauge - Monitoring Water Temp and Oil Pressure - Other modules are included - Full Prothane Polyurethane Bushings all round - BRE style duckbill front spoiler - ZG style fenders at all four corners - JDM style Fender Mirrors - All seats recently re-upholstered - All new wheel bearings with Koya bearings - New Uni Joint on driveshaft - Stronger R200 Differential - Custom Full aluminum Radiator - Italian made SPAL performance series radiator pusher fan. - 9mm Spark Plug leads - ULTRA Multi Discharge Ignition 9500 system (Japanese alternative of the MSD Ignition kits. Wataru Kato of Liberty Walk uses this unit in his heavily modified Datsun 'Kenmeri' C110) - Viper Remote notification car alarm - Power Windows - Very rare 240z steering wheel and horn pad - Rechromed 260z badges - Headlight Covers - Kameari exhaust manifold heat shield with additional heat insulation layer For those who are looking at getting further performance, The modifications above has been done to create a base to future proof any significant engine mods in the future. This Unique Datsun 260Z is breathtaking in performance for it's age. Been garaged and looked after in a fastidious manner. 90000 km on the clock only. Belongs to a non smoker owner. Accident free. It is a very reliable vehicle and is mechanically perfect. However, being a vintage car it would require someone who is willing to spend time looking after it for a rewarding experience, which a modern car would not be able to even come close to. It's a real head turner and gets attention from the crowd, especially among the Japanese car enthusiast crowd. I've had many compliments on the car and onlookers taking photos of it. It is priced to sell quickly at $23,000. Kyusha number plate is excluded from the sale. I am open to swaps for medium sized sedans / station wagons / SUVs 2011 or newer, with less than 80,000km on the odometer.

just saw this, and cried......couple of weeks late.... well done on the sale.

Hi all, I have just found another scam/to good to be true. sales ad link is here: http://www.uniquecarsandparts.com.au/classifieds/index?a=2&b=6977 So I tried calling, number not valid. Noticed the seller mentioned 10mins from Melbourne CBD, but located near Geelong (not 10mins), then please have a look at my email thread below after I sent my enquiry through the website: From: Irene Suzanna Humphreys <ireneshumphreys@eolienne-ind.com> Date: Tuesday, 14 February 2017 at 7:07 AM To: Ned <ned@.com.au> Subject: SPORTS COUPE CLASSIC DATSUN 260Z Hi, I appreciate your interest. My advert is still valid, the car runs and drives excellent and has been extremely well maintained with a full service history and all necessary documents available. The only problem is that I am now located in Perth ( WA 6150 ). It is also posted on eBay, and if you want to buy through eBay and PayPal I can offer a free delivery and I take a commitment to deliver it with the same price ( AUD $7,000 ) and including testing period. Regards MY REPLY Hi Irene, Thank you for your reply. Can you please advise where the car is currently located? As you only posted the ad last week, I assume it is still in Victoria. Could you please provide your contact number so we can chat over the phone? I would like to inspect the vehicle and test drive. Also, I cannot find the listing on ebay, could you please provide the item/listing number for ebay?
