1973 Datsun 240z S30 With Lsx And 6-speed on 2040-cars
Buffalo, Minnesota, United States
I am selling my 1973 Datsun 240z with LS327 engine and T-56 transmission. I built this car a few years ago and have taken great care of it. The car is very fast, very loud and very reliable. It turns heads everywhere and is truly one of a kind. It has an almost a perfect 50/50 weight distribution due to the engine placement and stronger differential. I regularly get 30mpg during highway cruising. It started as a 36,000 mile California car and was purposely built to drive to the track, rip some pavement and get you back home before dinner. I have listed as much as I can remember about the build below. Most everything is new or rebuilt. All offers will be considered! Color is BMW Phoenix Yellow GM LS327 H.O. Engine LS1 Intake and Fuel Rails Aluminum Radiator w/ Electric Fan OEM Corvette Fuel Pump, Regulator and Filter T-56 6-Speed Transmission LUK Clutch Nissan 300zx 3:7 LSD w/ CV Halfshafts TechnoVersions Urethane Differential Mount Super Strong Driveshaft Ceramic Coated Hooker Headers 2.5” Dual Exhaust w/ Cat Delete Tokico HP Shocks Arizona Z-Car Springs Urethane Bushings Bump Steer Spacers Strut Tower Brace Front, Nissan 300zx Ventilated Discs and Calipers (excellent stopping power) Rear, Nissan 300zx Discs and Calipers (retains parking brake) Brake Master Cylinder w/ New Booster SS Braided Brake Lines Hawk HP Pads 17x7.5 Kazera’s finished in Matte Black Yokohama Parada Spec B Tires NOS Dashboard (perfect condition) NOS Heater Panel Speedhut Speedo w/ top speed recall and Tach w/ programmable shift lights Pontiac Solstice Seats Roll Bar Carbon Fiber Door Panels New Carpet 4 Speaker Stereo New Fuse Block (Blade Style) Momo Steering Wheel Carbon Fiber Bumper Carbon Fiber Spoiler JDM Fender Mirrors Urethane Air Dam Powder Coated Undercarriage Parts New Windshield Washer Pump Photos: Videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1a0n11CqaSI&feature=youtu.be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eedZ5p_yA6g&feature=youtu.be This is a very well sorted Zcar, but it is not a show car. It has a few small dings and chips from being driven during the summers. There was very minimal surface rust on the passenger floor pan, but it was fixed. Typical with Zcars, there is a wheel shimmy at 50mph I can’t seem to solve, but I have noticed it really depends on the tire pressure. Also, when downshifting from 3rd to 2nd gear, it has a hard time engaging if the revs are too low.In summary, it’s a low millage pavement ripper that you
can drive daily. Shoot me an email with
any questions or photo requests and I will get back to you ASAP. The car
is located in Minnesota and I can help facilitate shipping. Thanks for looking! |

Meet the man who took a year sabbatical to drive his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster
Tue, 28 Jan 2014A quiet drive in the country can be the most relaxing thing in the world. What if it didn't have to end, and you could keep driving for a week, a month or even a whole year? That's what Scott Fisher is doing by taking a one-year sabbatical from work and driving his 1967 Datsun Fairlady Roadster around North America.
"I had owned a manufacturing business in Las Vegas for 16 years. I knew I needed to kinda' get out, and unwind, and get my mojo back," said Fisher.
Fisher's trip has covered over 30,000 miles through 44 states and 7 Canadian Provinces, and it is not over yet. He left from his home in Las Vegas, NV, last spring and drove to the Pacific. From there, he drove up the coast to the Canadian border and aimed the car for the Atlantic. He just posted on his blog about visiting the Nissan headquarters and museum in Franklin, TN, and his next stops are Mississippi and New Orleans, LA.
37K miles in a 1967 Datsun Roadster
Tue, 11 Mar 2014When we think of comfy, long-distance road cars, there are a few obvious choices. A Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Bentley Continental GT or, assuming fuel efficiency isn't paramount, a Range Rover are all good options for a road trip. But what if that road trip was 37,000 miles? Maybe something more reliable but still comfortable, then, like a Honda Accord. What about a 1967 Datsun Roadster?
As insane as it sounds, Scott Fisher is doing just that, running a Datsun 1600 Roadster across North America and racking up 13,500 miles in his first three months on the road. His total journey will see him pile over 37,000 miles on his red convertible. The car is lightly modified, but most of the work is for the sake of reliability and comfort, with a five-speed manual 'box, an upgraded radiator and electronic ignition.
Fisher's trip hasn't been all smooth, with a few typical bits of trouble. He also ran into some deer in Utah, quite literally, clipping one of the animals, which delivered quite a bit of damage to the passenger's front fender (hence the rear three-quarter view in our lead shot). Still, the car seems to be holding up well, as shown in this latest video from Petrolicious.
Datsun's lackluster initial sales fall below Tata Nano
Wed, 15 Oct 2014When Tata introduced the Nano back in 2008, everyone was amazed at how cheap it was. They called it a game changer, but no game was changed. In fact, it took Tata five years to sell the 250,000 units it had the capacity to build in a single year. As it turns out, even buyers in what economists call "developing markets" like India aren't necessarily interested in buying an ultra-cheap automobile. And now it appears that Nissan may be falling into the same trap.
A little over a year ago, Nissan revived its old moniker Datsun to serve as a budget brand - similar to what ally Renault did with Dacia. Its lineup (consisting of models like the Go hatchback, Go+ minivan, On-Do sedan and Mi-Do hatch) is largely based on old architecture, packaged with little more than basic equipment and sold at rock-bottom prices. But Bloomberg reports that, even in the brand's core markets like India and Indonesia, the new Datsuns haven't been selling.
According to local industry figures, Datsun has sold fewer than 10,000 units of its $5,100 Go hatchbacks in India since its introduction back in March. Maruti Suzuki, by comparison, sells twice that many of its similarly priced Alto hatchbacks every month. In fact, after peaking in April, Datsun only sold 607 units in India this past July, dipping 77 percent to drop below even the number of Nanos which Tata sold that month.
