rusty260z

Winter UPDATE Summer of driving went well, did not let me down once on start up or driving. Had to install rear seat belts, kids were enjoying the freedom a bit too much A lot of minor items sorted out, door locks, electric window, windscreen blower works but no heat, will take to auto ac/heater person later New wof - needs breaks overhauled, water leak into ca (in process) after wof will take it to make it louder. Attend Jaguar club events after its back on road. Summer goal is sounds, want to get radio to work, rock old cassette tapes.

thanks for replies, Will hold off on the efi box, and find someone to have a look at the carb and sort it out, any suggestion around East Tamaki area? have uploaded engine and carb pic on project page, assuming i take off air cleaner and look for some sort of model/serial number on carb?

Update 1: service and few minor works for wof, new wof obtained. Needed new battery and some fuel did start, heater works, which is a bonus for the rain we are having Will attempt to drive it to work tomorrow. Also it stalls at times when taking off from stand still, any chevy 350 gurus know the solution to this? I will put a engine bay pic up tomorrow.

While the other unreliable car (Rx8) was not working, decided to buy another unreliable car. Its got a 350 chev, changed by many owners back power windows, and pink interior. painted wire wheels, which i may keep or go back to standard wheel Aim is to tidy things slowly to get it to a usable classic, for long trips etc. possibly removing the vinyl roof and paint to match car but all is next winter, hopefully some summer cruises Some minor works needed for wof, but nothing major,

Very nice, Did this race in any series or just a track toy?

2020 to 2021 / Had to park it up finally / couldnt get a wof. Was focused on the MR2. But aim is to have the 260z's rust removed/repainted and back on the road by summer. Not a garage queen but tidy and usable. This month will start the strip down etc. will post pics as it happens.

Purchased 2008-Jul-21 , Dam that was a while back Used for a long time. Pictures from 7 years ago

flyingbrick - Thanks, was very tidy when got car, was not used much by previous owner ajg193 - Ya thought of making clip from wire, will look into it.

Also need a small clip that i seem to be missing (red arrow)for bracket. The bracket hold air box to black pipe thing, (does anyone know if black pipe is factory item) and where i can find clip, mitre 10?, or anyone got spare bracket and any suggestions for amp that will fit under seat and speaker in stock location welcome.

Since there have been few 240z/260z/fairlady posting up, i thought id share mine 1979 Nissan Fairlady 2 Liter Fuel Injected 2+2 ( i honestly prefer the 2+2 shape, each to their own etc) Electric windows, and electric guard mirrors. It is a fairly original z car i could find/afford Also original fuel injected as thats what i wanted, starts first time after months of sitting. Had for quite a few years Been off road for last year, but fully road legal now, changed all shocks to standard replacements, and full service etc Plans to intall new sounds, Digital Design LE-M06 sub, amp under seat, and good replacement for speakers in stock location, run off a mp3 player etc, want to keep interior of car as original as i can. And fix tape player, play tapes if i want. Bit rough, dents, rust, scraps, do use it often for shopping, long trips. Not in any show car state, and not cleaned often, so seen around fairly dusty often. Plan to keep it as original as practical, sounds some time this year, paint eventually when required. some pictures,

Z club does the above i think, never been to one thou
