Yup, it happenned ! After 4 months of wait, I finally received my RB26 from Japan, Thanks to JDMDistro That looks clean, i can't wait to put it on a bench and start it ! But before that, i need some other parts.

The original insert of the glovebox was shot, so i've got a brilliant idea ! Why not insert the fusebox inside the glove box ? After few hours of modelling and printing, i got something cool So for now, i still use my first fusebox, but at lease, the glovebox is ready

It's Christmas in October ! Special delivery from ZStory ! Those pipes are BIG !

I might be stupid, but there we are, yes, i bought a Rocket Bunny kit for the Z ... Also, i've sourced a FS5W71C gearbox from a Skyline RB20DET. Now, i need to source a 71B transmission from a L-engine to swap those bellhouse and get 5 speeds in the Z

Aside from having a hard time to start after a long period of time stopped, these engines are know to suffer from vapor lock, it's a phenomen that happen when it's hot outside and the fuel present in the engine bay hoses get so hot, the fuel become gas and

For her first time on the road, i've done a very important transport !

Today i've got her a good soup of vitamins ! Here we are, fresh oil for the diff, gearbox and the engine ! Also replaced a leaking "Cock valve" (Valve for the heater core) And after having to deal with the inspectors of the MOT check for wrong seatbelts (You can't replace

These tires have seen better days, let's gift her new shoes ! But before that, a deep cleaning of the wheels ! And a pair of Hankook Kinergy Eco2, i choosed these tires because i wanted to keep it in a tight budget but to not compromise the efficiency. As these wheels

Yup, i have an electrical issue here ... So, as mentionned in a previous post, my fusebox wasn't perfect and here's why. Because i've followed the Haynes schematic, i realised there's an issue. There's two thick white wires coming in the fusebox, on the schematic, they are separated, in the original

There we are, a big step for this project, i've received the new coilovers from BC Racing, the wheel bearings from RockAuto and we're going to reinstall them ! Every owners of S30 know this struggle I had to cut the spindle to seperate the shock absorber from the lower arm

It's a RWD Japanse shitbox, so it needs to have a proper LSD ! I've ordered a LSD from Quaife, expensive but bulletproof ! For the job, i bought a 6tons press, one the best decisions i've made this year ! At the same time, i've painted the differential, placed new bearings and

One day, i still don't know how, i literally got half of the steering column in my hands, disconnecting all the cables at the same time. The 3 screws holding the column were cut in a previous life Then i finally got my definitive Sparco Wheel And i've received a

Today we're removing all the suspension ! The front shock absorbers are shot, so it's time to get something better than that !

This interior have not aged well, while doing more research about parts, i've learned there was multiples "series" of the 240Z (not talking about 260Z and 280Z or 2 / 2+2), but the first ~20 000ish cars manufactured had some specific parts that wasn't present in the future models, short

In a previous post, i've mentionned a package from Skillard, i've also bought their front grill ! And i've 3D printed some covers for the mirror and antenna holes in the body but i forgot to take a picture of that :(

When i got the Z, a lot of electrical stuff wasn't working at all, in cause, the original fuse box in a very bad shape as you can see in the pictures And so i designed a new fuse box based on a PCB made from JLCPCB with more common

When i've restarted the car, i wasn't happy of how it was running, so i bought a repair kit for the carburators and started to clean them. After that, it wasn't still perfect When a carburetor is backfiring like that, it's because it run too lean. Then i realised that
