So -- we are embarking on some major work for the 240Z...

First up:

1. Techno-toy Tuning front and rear control arms plus tension rods
2. Wilwood 300 mm front big brake kit
3. Wilwood rear disc conversion
4. Konig Rewind 16X7 wheels with 205/50/16 Bridgestone RE760

The work commences in a week and a half...

This is Phase 1.

Have you found a T5 280zxt tranny? Will need to fab a mount and bend the shifter to fit. It took me over 6 months to find a used one back in the 90's. Junk yards keep sending the regular Datsun 5-speed. Nissan doesn't sell them anymore, not for a long time. Also tried this back in the 90's. Have you found a Diesel Maxima crank for the stroker build? So rare, I gave up looking.

Who's brake kit did you go with? I have the Arizona Z car kit, it is really good. Don't forget to upgrade the MC. You will need it.

I chanced upon it on eBay. I saw several of them still available. I get most of my stuff on Yahoo Auctions Japan. I use proxy bidding when applicable.
