I'm putting my z for sale; it's a 1975 Datsun 280z S30 coupe 5 speed. She's a great car and she’s got lots of new parts. She’s a great daily driver. I'm selling my Z because I need cash to start up my business. That's the only reason I'm selling her. I bought this car with the intention to never sell her. But life has her way of letting you know who is boss. I upgraded the suspension and all the brake parts because I wanted to make sure she would be a reliable daily driver. Fully tuned up and ready for her new home. She's not perfect but turns heads where ever she goes. The interior is all there and original besides one missing panel. The only interior defects are the holes where the PO cut out for speakers, and the driver rear quarter panel cover is missing. On the driver seat there is a small whole by the left bolster and a small slit by the bottom left bolster. The passenger seat is mint. All the gauges work except the clock. New Falken 205/50/15 tires on Enkei 92s 15x8, new left and right tie rod ends, new sway bar end links, 4 new shocks, new brakes, new SS brake lines, new rear brake cylinders. New Flow master 40 series muffler. New 280zx master cylinder, new clutch master cylinder. New plugs and wires. New carpet. Used 330MM Naradi steering wheel. New shift booth and e-brake boot. Car comes with factory 4 speed. Installed is a 1982 280zx close ratio 5 speed. New speakers all the way around, 6" in the front under the dash and 5.5" in the rear. Nice Pioneer CD player with Aux input and remote. A/C blows cold and has been retrofitted to use R134 gas. Heater works great too. Dash has a cover over it, has a few cracks. The car has some old tint on it that will be removed. The body is on good shape with only a few spots that have bobbles here and there. The PO repainted the car and didn't do a good job with the prep work. The rust is minimal with a car this age and will be a quick fix with a repaint if you feel it’s necessary. Frame rails are solid. The floor boards have a few small holes, but nothing that a few patches can't fix. Overall the floors are structurally sound. The original 280z bumpers were swapped in favor of the 240z front bumper with custom mounting brackets. The rear I left without a bumper because that was the look I was going for. Air dam is for a 240z as you can see there is cut outs for 240z turn signals. Over all the Z is a great car for a daily driver and she turns heads. She needs a few cosmetic fixes but other than that she’s great! Hope the new owner will enjoy her as much as I did. Happy bidding. Low Reserve.

Roadkill pits every project car against each other

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.

This father and son duo terrorize the UK countryside in Datsun 240Z pair

Wed, 12 Nov 2014

The Datsun 240Z got a lot of things right when it was introduced, with handsome styling, strong performance and a reasonably affordable price. And while the coupes grew a strong fan base in the US, they remained quite a rarity in the UK. Decades later, a father and son in England have latched onto the car and bonded over their shared love for two completely opposite takes on this Japanese GT
There's already quite a collection of exotics in Mel Streek's garage, and his rat rod 240Z, which he calls the Ratsun, definitely doesn't fit with the rest. On the outside, the Datsun looks ready to fall apart, but it's mechanically perfect underneath. Alternatively, Mel's son, Ollie, has a completely different take for his Z with its perfect, shining paint.
Both Zs sound amazing, though. They have a mechanical, somewhat course exhaust note that's intoxicating to hear. You can definitely tell there's some work going on under the hood. Check out this video from Petrolicious for a father and son who both find something to love in these classic Japanese coupes.

Datsun expands low-cost revival with new Mi-Do in Moscow [w/video]

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

Those who were disappointed when Datsun changed its name to Nissan over three decades ago may have been pleased to see the marque revived last year, even as a budget brand. Nissan's counterpart to its ally Renault's Dacia budget brand, Datsun has been steadily expanding its lineup of low-cost transportation for developing markets with the debut of the Go hatchback in India, the Go+ minivan in Indonesia and the On-Do sedan in Russia. And now it has returned to Moscow to reveal its fourth model, the Mi-Do.
Based closely on the On-Do sedan (which itself is based on the Lada Granta) the Mi-Do takes on a five-door hatchback bodystyle but with no more frills. It uses the same front-drive chassis with the same wheelbase as the sedan, but its chopped tail makes it a good foot and a half shorter overall. Into that compact shape, Datsun has fitted dual airbags, ABS and... well, that's about it. It's got a 1.6-liter, eight-valve inline-four kicking out a grand total of 87 horsepower to either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic. Bare bones, this is.
While delivery of the first On-Do sedans commences next month (with the first example going to an IT specialist in Omsk), the Mi-Do is set to begin delivery early next year. Scope out the video and press release below from the Mi-Do's reveal at the Moscow Motor Show.
