Just remembered that our 2000 was a '70 model, the first year for the 240Z. I never looked, but I wouldn't be surprised if it had actually been built in late '69. Never looked, wish I could now. Lat

Mark, A number of folks on the 510 list have been going through a similar exercise. Unfortunately the 510 used metric studs/nuts. The long NISMO stds run at least $12/each! You also need to be caref

The roadster we bought new here (Ft. Worth) in '70 did have bias ply tires. AFAIK, that's the way Datsun shipped the cars, although I'm sure many dealers changed them to radials. We took the car the

Good point, Jim. Be aware that, at least here in Texas, there are two levels of AAA membership, standard and Plus. With standard you get (I think) 3 miles of towing before you start paying. Plus giv

Ron, Having good work done well is never cheap. That may be one reason most of us tend to do as much of our own work as we can. Another reason is the enjoyment derived from doing it yourself. Honest

Good points. I need to remember that even the stock setup is pretty stiff and suspension travel isn't overly generous. That was the biggest reason we bought our first 510 in '71. It was either get a

Rick, 2.5 is considered about optimum for SU's, provided that you're getting the volume the carbs need, and that sounds like what's happening. Too much pressure tends to force gas past the needle/se

If you cut them down too much, it can allow the shock to bottom out, destroying the internal valving. Been there, done that, on a new set of Konis. OUCH! Don't get me wrong, they can be cut, just be
