Hey guys,i was going to sell this car a while ago but i decided not to ecause i love it but due to circumstances changing and needind a family car it is up for sale again,but this time it has to go,along with my GTR.

I have a 1972 240z (2seater) it has an rb30 block that has been re-built just with linished std rods acl race bearings etc,head is a rb25det with the vvt deleted,it was re-built with stock cams 3 angle valve grind,new guides,arp studs etc.

It has a greddy plenum with xf tb

550 cc injectors with custom top feed rail and SX regulator

300-600 custom cooler

Garret GT35R with a 1.06 exh housing

Tial external gate with screamer

Microtech lt12-s with x-6 sequential ignition with bosch coils and magnicor leads

Turbosmart e-boost2 (sleeper series)

Custom 3" exhaust

Big radiator

VG30dett 5 speed(same as rb25 with better ratios)

Custom tailshaft

R32 lsd with custom en26 axels and V8 commodore cvs

Custom rear disk conversion

Autometer gauges

044 pump with surge tank etc

Electric water pump and thermo fan

I did the usual 1000 km run in then took the car to the dyno and made 320 hp @ the wheels on 10psi

the tuner told me it easily has potential to make 500+rwhp with more boost but to drive it for a while to get used to it first..

At the moment it is midway through being painted,i figure it is better to sell as is in primer so the new owner can choose the colour but if i cant sell it i will paint it then sell it.

I was driving this car to work ever day prior to taking it off the road for paint and it is a pretty good car to drive but to be honest it isnt really the type of car i would use as my only mode of transport.

This will be a really cool car when done and i hate to see it go but you gotta do what you gotta do.

It would benefit a lot from a roll cage which my engeneer has given the ok to put in on the street..The whole thing has gotten the nod from the engineer it just has to be taken to him once painted so he can write it all up..it is currently engineered with an rb20 so the rb30 is just an update on the current engeneers report.Unfortunatly i let it run out of rego a few months ago ut it will have no probs passing.plates come with it GTR 240

If you have a look around you will see that a standard 240z is worth 10-20k these days depending on condition so i am asking 13k but am open to offers..it owes me more than double that.will post better pics soon.

for more details pm or ring luke 0410497808

Like the car, but getting it to WA, and then licensing it would be very hard.

Good luck with the sale.

Hey mate, I'm in Perth ...can you PLEASE tell me ...what are my chances of getting THIS through WA pits?

What's the rust like? Rear tail lights, boot floor, sills?

Is there any knock in the tune?

What suspension is in it. What size are those wheels. Are you using nissan 4 pots on the front?

Cheers

It has had new floors,tail lights are good,rust been fixed in sills..small amount of rust in lh door.repacment skin can be bought from rare spares..

Knock in the tune?I dont understand why there would be any knock in the tune..if there was knock it wouldnt be tuned properly.

260z suspension with pedders gas shocks..the wheels are a whopping 14" and the brakes fit inside the by only millimeters..have toyota 4 pots for the front.direct bolt on to original mount

cheers

I really like your car.

RE: the knock, 20ish is generally acceptable - was just asking if it was tuned proper.

I tried talking my cousin into buying it but he won't look at anything without a 350chev in it.

Good price for a rust free 240. 14's must be fun =D

Good luck with the sale.

Thanks buddy.yep rust free 240's are definatly getting pretty pricey these days..(yep the 14's are a lot of fun lol)

what pistons you using in there?

the pistons are just rb30e's.just cast ones..prob 1 regret i do have is not putting forgies in but i didnt plan on going as far with it as i did..

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
