Very nice! Freshening up the L24, or just going to see how it goes?

Im just going to clean the motor with new welsh plugs, water pump, thermosat, exhaust studs and a few gaskets. i just want to get the car on road with the L24 then see

how things go from there.

Still looking for a pedal box and gearbox. So if we can get some fine weather, i can fit all these parts to the motor and fit it as soon as i have a gearbox :cheers:

Couple of things learnt today, first and most important is always ask before buying lol. And here are the rest.

240k and 240z do not have the same door handles.

Ebay photos looked close

But different shape and size

C110 and C210 do not have the same door locks.

Look the same from the front

But from behind the they are different, i tried changing the backs over but they are different too.

Installing this required more skin then i liked lol

Also 240z pedal boxs are not the same as as 240k, but the 260c looked about right but was not able to strip this car of it.

This has made me want to finish the car even more so updates should come a little quick for 2 weeks or so.

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading through your build thread. Can I ask, apart from Ottomoto, where else have you sourced all your parts/stickers from? I'm currently building one and any help would be appreciated.

I am in Sydney as well so maybe when mines done we can go on an old school GTR cruise!

Alot of my parts are from Yahoo Japan and other sellers like Rubber-soul and cityauto which are japanese sites.

If looking on Yahoo go throught importmonster so its all translated for you, Here is what you sheach for ケンメリ

There are 3-4 of us(all building GTR clones) that share info,sites and good buys we find. Also try help out with spares and what not we have picked up.

Hmmm many months not a great deal to up date. Still waiting to get my SS trim back over 6 weeks late.

I got these parts today so need to have the flywheel machined then i mite get this motor back in. Be good to get back into this car again. Also have JDM lights on the way too.

    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
