That is an awesome engine bay! The guy who used to build my enduro bikes had a mint 240z with widebody kit, massive simmons mags and a 5.0 ford windsor in it. That car was and still is insane. Ill try to get some pics of it today.

The 260 is the gray/silver one I think, I'm sure I've seen pics of it before...

I'm buying a buggered 260Z with all intention of restoring it... Too bad those OS Giken twin cam heads are near impossible to find... :(

so which is the 240 and which is the 260? i dont know whats stock and what's not to tell them apart
I think they are both 260s. 240s don't have the little side indicator at the front, IIRC.

i freegan love these cars

If i had the time/money/space, it would be my number 1 choice of a project car.

There's a dude on here somewhere (from America) that has a sweet looking orange one too.

Hopefully he'll see this and add some piccies of his own......

the dude who owns the blue one had a 280z engine and stroked it to 3.1L, stuck on a turbo is making around 400hp

but both of them started off as a 260z i think, then i can't tell the 240z/260 apart anyway. Both are from the US of A

There's a nice looking one for sale recently for 4 grand on car sales...........man its tempting.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
