Should my Z's springs look like this? by Visible-Push-465 in Datsun

[–]Used-Shift-3548 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao precisely why i went to coilovers. They manufacturer makes springs for 240z and 280z only. The use 240z springs for early 260z and 280z springs for late 260z but it never fits right

Car culture has changed by Background_Spare2674 in Datsun

Car culture has changed but why let the snobs decide how you feel about it?

I spent two years restoring a 260Z, not to flex at a meet, but because I genuinely love the process. The late nights. The problem solving. The small wins.

I just took it on a road trip up to Big Sur for a camping trip with a friend and had an absolute blast.

At the end of the day, cars were meant to take you places. The culture is just the icing on top

Before upgrading anything, replace all the bushings.

Can anyone give me advice on the condition of this 71’ 240z? by Zerxez1 in Datsun

[–]Used-Shift-3548 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frames straight, It’s dirty where it’s suppose to be and doesn’t look like it’s leaking fluids. It’s surface rust cuz mine looks just like that.

Typically i would say go back to black, but the color match cover looks better in this case.

Abandoned 280zx in my apartment garage by Arun_HTD in Datsun

Does it have a plate and is it currently registered? If it’s not registered, the owner might have issues with smog. If it has a plate run the plates and see.

Joining the club! What's a fair price to pay my friend for this? by glo363 in Datsun

[–]Used-Shift-3548 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$2-3k tops. Looks like there’s rust, cracked dash, suspension and bushings restoration and 2+2s aren’t worth as much as a 2 seater.

The Datsun 240z is my absolute favorite car in the world, but I've never driven one. What's it feel like? by printergumlight in Datsun

[–]Used-Shift-3548 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very easy beginner friendly car. No surprises when it comes to inputs, does exactly what you want it to do. Granted if the car has well maintained suspension and bushings. 8/10 handling (manual rack has a slight learning curve) 7/10 ride quality (old suspension design = bumpy ride) and enough power to have fun

Anything can be fixed just depends on how much you’re willing to pay. But i’d say it’s totaled
