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:

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! |

Subaru Legacy pitted against Roadkill project cars
Fri, 05 Sep 2014There's an evergreen debate among auto enthusiasts about whether they would prefer to have the latest and greatest car of today or a certified classic from yesteryear. What if you had to further define that, though, and the choice was between a brand new 2015 Subaru Legacy or a turbocharged Datsun 240Z with a hatch that wouldn't close? Roadkill aimed to find out that and more in one of its best videos to date.
According to the hosts, Subaru came to them, handed over some money and challenged Roadkill's project cars against its latest Legacy. The result is every bit as good (or better) than any automotive-themed show you could find on television.
Things start simple with a figure-eight race in a rodeo arena with the Subaru taking on Roadkill's 1968 Ford Ranchero, originally built for ice racing. From there the Legacy races a 1968 Dodge Charger with no windows around and off-road rally stage. Finally, the Subie goes head-to-head against the Rotsun, the aforementioned turbocharged 240Z, through an abandoned neighborhood. Plus, there's a bonus drag race challenging them all.
Nissan IDx Nismo and IDx Freeflow concepts are a bridge to the Datsun 510
Wed, 20 Nov 2013We're not sure if someone from The Adjustment Bureau stopped by Nissan's PR department to explain the IDx Nismo and IDx Freeflow concepts, but the company's odd press release can't diminish our love for these two show favorites. We had been told to look out for an unnamed Datsun 510 BRE homage, and once we saw the brothers IDx, we knew we'd found them. But the press release doesn't mention anything about the Datsun 510 Brock Racing Enterprises, nor does it mention one Mr. Peter Brock, the man who won two Trans-Am championships in the Seventies for the nascent Japanese budget brand.
Instead, it declares that the cars were the result of a co-creation product development process with "digital natives," said natives being the whippersnappers born after 1990. Nissan says it worked with the young'uns to create two different expressions of "their desire for a basic, authentic configuration for a car." If that's true, it appears that what the kiddies really want are... two different homages to the Datsun 510 BRE that Peter Brock used to win two championships in the seventies for the nascent Japanese brand.
The IDx Freeflow - the "ID" is for "identification," the "x" is "the variable representing the new values and dreams born through communication" - takes the casual approach, with a light khaki exterior hue, a minimalist interior decked out in denim and a console shifter that works a continuously variable transmission. The IDx Nismo is out for blood, from its crimson interior to its five-point harness to its bolt-on flares and sidepipes. We aren't told what the digital natives requested for powerplants, but that's alright; if this is what "co-creation" looks like, we're not entirely against it except where that "CVT" is involved.
Datsun expands low-cost revival with new Mi-Do in Moscow [w/video]
Fri, 29 Aug 2014Those who were disappointed when Datsun changed its name to Nissan over three decades ago may have been pleased to see the marque revived last year, even as a budget brand. Nissan's counterpart to its ally Renault's Dacia budget brand, Datsun has been steadily expanding its lineup of low-cost transportation for developing markets with the debut of the Go hatchback in India, the Go+ minivan in Indonesia and the On-Do sedan in Russia. And now it has returned to Moscow to reveal its fourth model, the Mi-Do.
Based closely on the On-Do sedan (which itself is based on the Lada Granta) the Mi-Do takes on a five-door hatchback bodystyle but with no more frills. It uses the same front-drive chassis with the same wheelbase as the sedan, but its chopped tail makes it a good foot and a half shorter overall. Into that compact shape, Datsun has fitted dual airbags, ABS and... well, that's about it. It's got a 1.6-liter, eight-valve inline-four kicking out a grand total of 87 horsepower to either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic. Bare bones, this is.
While delivery of the first On-Do sedans commences next month (with the first example going to an IT specialist in Omsk), the Mi-Do is set to begin delivery early next year. Scope out the video and press release below from the Mi-Do's reveal at the Moscow Motor Show.
