Re: 240z Door not locking

Solution for anyone in the future was to replace the locking mechanism.
Found a second hand one on ebay and took the good parts from both to make a working one.
Some wear and tear, 50+yr old cars etc.

240z Door not locking

Hi guys and gals I took my girl for a WOF and she came back not being able to lock the driver's side door.

WTB: S30 Stock Exhaust Manifold

Hi all, The exhaust manifold gasket on my 240z blew out the other day with an annoying tap tap tap noise. Last night I took the manifold off to replace the gasket and where it has been leaking there is a defect in the casting of my stock manifold which would likely just make it leak again if I put i...

Definitely keep us posted Glenn,
I have mine insured for 30k which sounded about right a couple of years ago.

Thanks lads,

Stumpy, that sounds like what I'm looking for. Is there a website for them or do I need to find a supplier?

Headlight replacement/upgrade - 240z

Hello peoples, After a big drive around the east cape a couple of weeks ago, one of my glass headlights has been cracked/smashed by a stone.

In Bronzee's links it says the 2007-2008 NISMO "was only available with a 6-speed manual transmission" and that there's an auto.

Looks unlikely.

Easiest would be the Dinsdale countdown carpark, Whatawhata road end wouldn't it?

There's not much parking outside the old garage.

And it'd be easier to get out of.

I won't be Dyno-ing. Engine recondition went deeper than expected so still running it in.

Will be there to watch/chat/cruise.

Anyone going over from Hamilton/Waikato and want to meet up to go over the Kaimais?
