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!

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!

Datsun to unveil second model later this month

Sun, 08 Sep 2013

Datsun, Nissan's new sub-brand for emerging markets, has announced plans to unveil its second model. Its first, the Go, was unveiled almost two months ago, and promised affordable, connected motoring for five in a handsome hatchback body. Datsun is following that up with a pair of new models for Indonesia.
The first of these two new vehicles will be shown on September 17 in Jakarta, eschewing the typical auto show debut. It's targeted at so-called "risers," the nickname for a group of highly aspirational customers in the Indonesian market. Datsun developed it locally with help from Nissan, and it'll cost under 100 million Indonesian rupiah (about $8,900 at today's rates).
We'll have the full boatload of information on the newest member of the Datsun family when it debuts on September 17. Scroll on to read the full press release from Datsun.

Datsun's lackluster initial sales fall below Tata Nano

Wed, 15 Oct 2014

When 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.

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:
