Pablo,

I know that the Z31 turbo had a R200 LSD. Maybe you could find one at a junkyard. Most of the yards around here have had those special pieces removed. Good luck with the racing. These...

In the mid 70's I believe the S31 came in ZL and ZT. ZT was more luxurious as the T stood for "Top". These were the Z's with the power windows and such. I am not positive on this as I do not have...

It looks like a one piece nose to me so I don't think it is a Nissan piece. They also state that it is a 70' which does not match the car. With the interior of a 76+ car and the fuel injection, I...

The Cosmo 110S is a really cool car Stephen. I believe that there are at least three in the states. I know of one by me in the bay area owned by nta dentist, and I have heard that Jay Leno is in...

Also, looking at the carbs, they are the smaller type. Indicating the 2 liter engine. It is still a great car with the 5 speed and the closer gear ratios.

All the Best,

Ben

Carl, I have seen many photos of 73-74 Fairlady Z's with the flattop carbs. I am pretty sure they had smog laws in Japan at the time as well as the 2 liter rule for a while.

I am alsmost...

Great link. Those vintage Honda motorcylces look great!

In North America the air cleaner for the 1974 260z was light blue.

This show was a lot of fun. There were a lot of 510's, roadster's, and Z's. Here are a few pictures.

Here is another nice set of Watanabe's, but I prefer only the 14 by 7j wheels of this set. They are 14 by 7j type B (+8mm). They are a perfect fit for the front or rear wheels.

The 14 by 6j...

Here is a set of 14 by 6.5 Type B Watanabe's on ebay. These are a great fit on non flared z cars. I emailed the seller and he told me that they are type B. I thought they were, but I had to make...

I have not heard of a 1200hp L-series either, but that would have to be a twin turbo. What about a N/A RB vs. a N/A L-series? However, I have heard of a S30 in Japan that runs an L-series with 50mm...

Hmm... I don't know what to say or feel about what I have wrote on this topic. I feel that I was very harsh and narrow in my original post. I try to be as kind about my statements as possible.

I just saw this and I think this is a beautiful car. I know many of you will appreciate this.

I think you know my opinion on this. Please, no Rb/SR swaps!!! That engine is a dog compared to a worked L-series. Yes it is cheaper to do the RB swap than to get more power out of a L-series, but...

To answer your question about fixing the car and whether it is worth the money and effort required, it is hard to assess. Do you mean worth it as fun for you, or do you mean will the car make you a...

Thanks Arne for the kudos. Polished lips and painted lips both look nice. I prefer the wheel fully painted, but it is all preference. To each is his own like Zsaint said.

-Ben :)

p.s. Get...

RS-Watanabes fit the S30 so well. If RS-Watanabes are the wheels that you want, you will not be satisfied with anything else. I've been there and done that. Once you get them, you will start...

I will definately be there with my 260Z. Thanks for the link Ron.

Is that Kyteler's car? Or am I missing something? BTW, it's a cool shirt.

Thanks Mike for posting the pics. I really had a great time at this show. I took around 160 photos and I will be posting many of them, but I have finals and projects due next week. Once that is...

Hello everyone,

I am going to be driving down to the LA area with my Z tomorrow (saturday) at 5am. I am really looking forward to the drive with my Z, the show, and meeting all of you.

That Kobe Seiko wheel that you posted a picture of Chris, I believe is of an optional wheel for the "street version" Z432. However, I do believe that those were the narrower wheels used on the Works...

This really is sad news. I agree with what Ron said about contacting these living legends.

I remember a picture taken not too long ago of Shekhar with Guus's car. He looked very happy. My...

I have Kumho 195 X 70. They feel sporty and they are very comfortable too. I highly recommend them as they are affordable too. Plus, the 70 series tires have that vintage look that looks so good...
