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.

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.

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
