The time has come to replace this project with another Nissan, as much as I loved this car I want to get something a bit more comfy.
I'm willing to sell this car as a whole the way it sits or part everything out.
I'll try to be as detailed as possible, no bullshiting around.
Its a 1974 260z with molded in flares and built sr20det swap. Last time i had the car dynoed it put down 418whp on dyno dynamics and that was only at 20psi. The hot side is a bit small and adding boost did nothing for us.
What the car needs:


Paint and body:
Its painted BMW titanium silver now, but there are some rust spots now. One of the rear flares has some damage, nothing that cant be easily fixed by a body shop. rear hatch has some cracks around the lock and lock itself is broken. Shes been sitting in a garage for about a year and key has gone missing. Last time i drove the car was early 2012 before i started removing all interior tar/sound deadening which is mostly gone now.
Rails were redone by Vinny from destruction warehouse.
She really needs paint to shine again =)

Interior:
I removed 99% of 40 year old sound deadening, so I don't have the carpet as I was planning on replacing it with a new one.
I have 350z black cloth seats that were in the car before.
Dash was made out of aluminum by autowerks. I don't have a rollbar anymore that might be on some of the pictures. Heater works but there is no a/c

Motor:
Everything works, but I dont have aem ems anymore, so the car doesnt have ems at all(this is why I lowered the price from previous price of 8k).
There is a good deal on series 2 ems on zilvia website in electronics sections, 899 for a brand new one.
With ems and base map installed You can just drive off from my driveway, it would take less then 20 minutes to install it.
It basically has new motor that isnt even broken in yet, about 200 miles on the bottom end and maybe a 1000 on most other things. Motor was build by Project X Customs
Tune was done by ILL garage.

Wheels are made by English company Home Page - Revolution Competition Wheels
I emailed them to get some more info and I was told that these are discontinued for quite a long time now, have magnesium centers and are very rare these days. In past 3 years Ive only seen one other set for sale and one set on Adam Carollas Datsun - Adam Carolla's Garage Photo Gallery - Autoblog
They were re finished by wheels of america 2 years ago, which included new powder coat and polish but since the car has been sitting they need a re-polish.
They are 3 piece. 15x8 front and 15x9 rear, zero offset from what I know.

Datsun previews new budget sedan for Russia [w/video]

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

Nobody does cars on the cheap quite like the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The former part of the equation already has its Dacia brand of cost-effective, no-frills vehicles that have become a favorite of Top Gear co-host James May, and last summer, the latter revived its Datsun nameplate for a budget brand of its own.
The reborn Datsun launched in India this past July with its Go hatchback, returned in September with the Go+ minivan and revealed the Redi-Go concept just last month. And now it's given us our first look at an upcoming budget sedan developed specifically for the Russian market.
The as-yet unnamed vehicle (which we'll bet will incorporate the word "go" into its nameplate somehow) is set to debut on April 4, where it will launch the Datsun brand in Russia. Few details are available at this point, but the low-cost sedan was designed in Japan to offer Russian drivers "an engaging driving experience, peace of mind ownership and accessibility at the right and transparent price, with a competitive Total Cost of Ownership."

Malaise Era All-Stars

Fri, 17 May 2013

A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

This father and son duo terrorize the UK countryside in Datsun 240Z pair

Wed, 12 Nov 2014

The Datsun 240Z got a lot of things right when it was introduced, with handsome styling, strong performance and a reasonably affordable price. And while the coupes grew a strong fan base in the US, they remained quite a rarity in the UK. Decades later, a father and son in England have latched onto the car and bonded over their shared love for two completely opposite takes on this Japanese GT
There's already quite a collection of exotics in Mel Streek's garage, and his rat rod 240Z, which he calls the Ratsun, definitely doesn't fit with the rest. On the outside, the Datsun looks ready to fall apart, but it's mechanically perfect underneath. Alternatively, Mel's son, Ollie, has a completely different take for his Z with its perfect, shining paint.
Both Zs sound amazing, though. They have a mechanical, somewhat course exhaust note that's intoxicating to hear. You can definitely tell there's some work going on under the hood. Check out this video from Petrolicious for a father and son who both find something to love in these classic Japanese coupes.
