    Default My 73 Project*


    Just some shots of my 1973 240z, I had posted it in the "car pics" section before I found this forum lol... People didn't respect it to much because its not a new 350z or EVO or something lol, but what they don't realize is, if it was not for our old school rides their rides would not exist!! Anyway, here are a few shots of what i have going on...
    It has a 5speed out of a 280z in it along with a rear locking diff, original 14" Nissan wheels... It had a 2.8 out of a 280z but needs the SU carbs rebuilt (for sale if someone wants to buy it lol) I bought an original 2.4 out of my buddy Kuy's car (he did a 1JZ swap) it was rebuilt by some race team that races down at road Atlanta "or so he says" lol It has a cam, new pistons, rods, bearings...

    Well I have a long way to go on it, it still needs new interior pieces and a good paint job but should be done by fall!! I'm thinking about going either pearl white or just strait out white with a little gunmetal pearl in it.. Anyway here are some engine swap pics

    Thanks for checking it out

    The 2.8 coming out





    The rebuilt 2.4


    Dirty engine bay


    Somewhat cleaner engine bay lol



    Cleaning up the tranny


    Getting ready to drop it all back in*






    The engine in and running!!

    240 z's are awesome cars. Glad to see you putting this car together. I had one many years ago and had a lot of fun in it. 240's are getting hard to find these days. If you need any parts or paint work advice PM me. Good luck with the build
