No doubt many people will have an idea of how they think this should be done so the comments section will probably get hectic. Try and be calm with each other - there's enough negativity in the world already and we don't need to fill every comment section on youtube with vomit do we? On another note, with the news this week that MotorTrend is leaving the platform, a lot of people have been asking us - what is the future of MCM on RUclips? Everything you need to know is right here:

Mighty Car Mods here in the uk I have work in 45 minutes! Your gunna make me late😂
Mighty Car Mods long time fan here guys, so much so that I started my own 240z project a little over a year ago when I was inspired by all the projects you were doing. Love the car, can't wait to see what you guys do with it
Whatever you guys decide to do, it will be awesome.
Mighty Car Mods people will say you start with the "HEAD GASKET?"
BUT, I say a car is like a pizza, when you make it for yourself, the ONLY wrong way to build a car is to put on it what you think other people will want. :)
If you guys don't figure out a way to go head to head in this with roadkill's rotsun that'd be a big opportunity lost
Turbo yoda explaining engine stuff is so calm and lovely. Imagine him as your instructor
This is definitely the most exciting build you guys have done, perfect engine choice staying with a Nissan straight 6 too!
Aye! If there ever was a marriage of engines out of unfortunate circumstances, then this one has to be the best of it.
RB26
It’s up there with the Mod Max build for sure
RD - Reihe Diesel
RB - Reihe Benzin
Reihe is German for inline engine.
Love your projekt!
oh interesting
Genau. That's what I was thinking after watching the vid too
had a rd22DET once. Blowed it up by raising the Ladedruck (boost) to much... But it was gloryous between raising and blowing.
here i was thinking it stood for Race Bred ;)
Source? I think that might just be ein Zufall, I can't think of why a Japanese manufacturer would use German for a naming convention
Love how Al instantly goes along with Moog on the Ibeza light concept.
*The moment we've all been waiting for*
If you include me in the "we've all", then I would agree
P. Cookie and begging for, in my case anyway
240Z with a modded rb26, aaahhhh so much LOVE for this car guys
240z with an RB26 this is gonna be awesome!
Tech Showdown I didn't know you watch mcm
yeah mate, my dream car would've been the S30 with an RB25 (RB26's are a lil' too expensive).
btw, love your vids mate, been following you for a long ass time now :)
Will need a man to drive it.
They pull 180 on ya stock lol
Tech Showdown don’t forget about the LW or Rocket Bunny kit
Joshua Tobias pass on both those lol
I live in Japan and in my travels I've seen a half a dozen 240Zs rusting in paddocks. I'm not a particular 240Z fan but even I thought it was sad each time I see one like that.
Those poor cars.
MOOG: One of the most iconic JDM cars of all time..
MARTIN: IS A MIRA!
MOOG:......
Unknown11432 hah you can even hear the crickets in the silence
Absolutely loved Turbo Yoda's explanation and insight in this video and his voice is so damn relaxing!
I know this is probably repetetive but I just want to thank you. Thank all of you at Mighty Car Mods. For being who you are and doing what you do. From A to Z. You are a real inspiration for a lot of us all around the globe I dare to say. You brought me to the realms of car culture many years ago.
Once again, thank you and stay awesome!
‘Migty Car Mods’ hahahaha
ronan Dammit, thank you, Ill correct that
You're so right. They are just amazing guys and they are my heroes
The Theeser well said
From A to specially Z because that s30 is sick
TURBO YODAAAAA!
Look at that! With joda theres no issues, "just have to move this mount".
I think you mistyped God..
They should 2JZ swap it
Niels Johansen Why? If they were gonna go with a different manufacturer an Ls is a much better option. More horsepower and torque stock and almost unlimited potential. I think by keeping it all Nissan it’s much more interesting... just an opinion though.
After owning several ZCars a few years ago, I'm really enjoyed their project. One thing I'm finding very interesting is the range of restrictions that other countries put on modifying your cars. I guess I've gotten spoiled living in the States with a very different set of rules. You do have to make sure your mods meet certain certifications but to see Australia jank the whole driveline and leave you with a shell, that's pretty strict.
I don't know if the Japanese rules have changed but I remember guys in our Z Club buying Japanese engines that were pulled from cars there when they reached something like 2 years or 100,000 Kilometers or something like that. They used to be imported to the States frequently. You do need to research the varying rules before you spend your money. There could be some really rude surprises otherwise.
YESSS! This is gonna be my favorite build yet, I absolutely LOVE 240Z, I dream about owning one :)
some of us can only dream :(
Japan is where you need to take yourself.
Be prepared for replacing asbestos..
I wrote off my 260Z ☹️
Richard George F
Richard George F as well.
I was so sad you lost the engine til I found out you had a gtr engine and now I am excited for your best car yet
Andrew Vancil they should put the rb engine in the skyline from skid factory and put the twin turbo ls engine in the 240z
Sad to see the L motor get thrown away but it is what it is. At least it will be a proper RB build 👌👌👌
CZeroMedia I as a Truck guy I have a truck with a L motor and a RB26DETT
didnt expect to see you here!
The Ls belongs in camaro,nova and what ever American cars.
@@andresgarcia3516 they said L series as in the L28 that is in fact a 2.8L inline 6 cylinder engine. they are a power house and put down some serious power. I know because my friend owns a '82 Datsun 280ZX and it has the exact same engine.
Arin B. I mean to be fair it’s pretty much the only logical engine swap you can really do with 240/260z’s
You guys have come a long way from constantly pestering Yoda "will this fit my honda" It's amazing he put up with you back then haha.
sirgallium The HONDA rhymes with ZONDA😱 Next build??? 😝✊️😀
The real question we need to know is will that fit in my Subaru.
Damn turbo Yoda dropping us some knowledge!!I absolutely love the Z ❤
Yes Alan is hitting us with facts.
Could listen to him talk about engines for hours, love the Skid Factory concept. Would be cool to have a sort of mini series with Turbo Yoda just talking about iconic engines (RB, JZ, SR and whatnot); their strengths and weaknesses, tuning routes etc.
Made me laugh when he said he spends hours awake at night wondering about the RD/RB naming lol. Allan's sense of humor is amazing xD
Turbo Yodas voice is meditation for me
Totally
One of the most iconic jdm cars of all time "IT'S A MIRA!" AMEN TO THAT!!!
"IS A MIRA!" Nice one, Marty.
long live the Mighty Car Mira!
You've made me proud. Not only are you respecting the car, you're keeping it in the family and trying to preserve it's character. This is why I trusted you from the start when we first saw it.
Turbo Yoda stole the show in this episode for sure
Hang on a minute....you put a Ford engine in a Toyota Cresta, a Subaru engine in a VW Beetle, a Honda engine in a Mini.....and now you are actually putting a Nissan engine in a Nissan ( alright, it's a Datsun, but it's still the same company!).
Are you ill? I mean, you're almost making sense!!!
I would of went with the 5.6 (VK56DE)
Its not a Datsun.
ikr why not ls swap it instead
@@MrJMS814 yes it is?
@@tomhatcher2346 its called a nissan in japan im pretty sure
When you see an empty engine bay and instantly think "An RB would be sick in it", mcm deliver.
I thought exactly the same!
You guys are literally building my dreamcar!!! ❤
Jesse Mast I agree
if D in RD stands for diesel then B in RB stands for benzin, makes perfect sense, well in my language anyway
This engine is RB26DETT, which stands for: RB-Nissan Factory Code, rumored to mean "Race Bred", -2.6L, D-Double overhead camshaft, E-electronic injection, TT-Twin Turbo
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Gotta love an Arby!
you link actually does not explain the RB - but I agree that "Race Bred" would be too English for a Japanese product. Gasoline is "ガソリン" (Gasorin), so Benzine is probably wrong- Diesel is ディーゼル (Dizeru) so could fit. The "R" could just stand for "Row", or it was free letter in the latin alphabet
B is for Buel, or Betrol, duh...
Hey guys hope you read this comment - just wanting to show my appreciation for all the videos you guys have made over he last ten years.
In particular to Moog I feel like I’ve sensed a bit of a hard edge to some of the comments you have made in some of the last videos where you may have not been enjoying it as much lately and becoming jaded.
Hope that’s not the case!
It’s such a shame you had to lose the driveline, I hope it wasn’t scrapped and went to a Fairlady that needed it.
drive train* Not a gramar nazi just saving you the hassle of putting up with a lot of keyboard warriors trying to correct you.
NotIrishRider I shouldn’t multi task, it rarely goes well.
In today's episode of "Australian import laws are bullshit..."
so you would rader have cancer from the asbestos?
nice spelling of rather there. I approve
Not as bad as the great USA rule of no imports of JDM cars (or maybe just GTRs?) newer than 20 years
This just HAS to be made up for the sake of dropping an RB in this sweet ole shell ...
Xenome13 25 years old ANY car
Best car build ever! RIP Motortrend
Seriously Moog, Chasing Midnight is one of the coolest songs to row through the gears with. Thank you for that.
Ive watched many, many videos of you guys. From the early days before you were a household name. I still love watching. Congratulations for keeping it real And keep up the good work.
Going back and watching old driveway mod videos brings back so much nostalgia.
FIRST of all. That's a shame you could not keep that engine it's a great piece of car history.
SECOND of all, are you F N kidding me, a Turbo GTR engine ........ That's the coolest Damn engine you could have picked.
THIRD, what's up Stig and Yoda
And finally FORTH, Hell yeah thats going to be a metric shit ton of Pandas to the wheels. Im Excited
flying munk89 "thats a shame you could not keep that engine" words from some one thats never owned a l series motor:)
Plenty of museum examples not everybody needs to own one. I would swapped for a later 280ZX Turbo engine or Skyline RB26
flying munk89 pandas are Chinese
Well Australia is shit soooo
An AWD Z would have been more epic, maybe.
Was so sad that you couldn't use the original engine but there couldn't have been a better replacement than an RB!
A living legend is back, Turboyoda! Long live Turboyoda!!!
You 2 fartsmellers are so lucky you got Turboyoda, unbelievable.
Moog
Your music is superb man!
I always put "Chasing Midnight" on when I drive at night, absolutely love it.
The car is pretty sweet as well ^-^
Yellow- Harold I do the very same. It's such a great song
MOOG is the Wizard of OZ!!!😜🦄🖖
Considering the amount of autotune, one should expect the vocalist to "sing" in tune.. But noo. Catch the reference: "Who's strangling a cat?"
You guys have been killing it with the uploads recently! Love the channel, keep it up guys!
keep the builds coming! focus rs, ls1 swapped skyline, and now 240z!!!!
Derek ls1 swapped skyline?
Jayden Hunt yeah go on to mcmtv2. Turbo yoda is building an ls1 r32 gts
On The Skid Factory
Forgot the Mira
Oh wow this was 3 years ago huh. The 240Z series helped me out during a tough time, it'll always have a special place in my heart
MCM recap. One the one hand we are taking an RB26 and putting it into a 240 then on the other hand we have a Skyline and we are putting an LS into it. The common denominator not being Nissan, but rather the Magical Turbo Yoda. I can get behind all of this.
nooranik21 when did they put an ls in a skyline?
I remember the v8 stagea. But I can't remember an LS skyline
Also Yoda is very partial to Toyota V8's
Dylan Zrim ruclips.net/video/fYaqMIpbkxA/видео.html
MCM2 channel - Yoda has his own show
At first I almost raged when i thought you were ditching the L-series, but when you explained why, I think I am ok with this outcome. My dream car is one with a L28 stroker and triple mikunis 👌👌
Brecon Killip you sir is the only one who fucking watched the video. Alot of people are bitchin about them leaving the L28 behind
This is honestly my dream car setup, a 240z with an RB-26.
I hope you read all of our comments so that you realise just how much support you guys have; I've had my say on your Blog. We will do anything to keep MCM alive!!
Listening to Alan talk just makes me moist. He is such a mellow dude lol
One of these is on my 10 car bucketlist... Will definietly coming back on these videos to look for inspiration :)
If you actually mean to get one, do it now, because later...this car will cost more than an arm and a leg. Just recently, a shell in mint condition, so even less than what MCM has now in the video, was sold in Germany (auction) for 6kE. They are getting expensive.
:') I have 3 cars already... I can't afford another one now. Putting a fair bit of money aside for an american trip and plan to bring back #1 on the list. Nice little 68 charger, as long as body doesnt have holes through it i'm good. Just means more content for my channel aha.
I love Turbo Yoda! Such a knowledgeable guy!
This is really exciting. I'm starting my 260z swap in a couple weeks. Got a lemon via bring a trailer auction. Glad to see I'm not the only one going through this.
Turbo Yoda pointing with a crowbar made me look wherever he was pointing. He wasn't even trying. A true master
Man, you guys have come a long way from pissing on the side of a VW.
That's sick! I personally am almost finished swapping an RB26 into my Stagea, which I'm also documenting. They're awesome engines.
awesome ride man!!!
Lin Chester thanks mate!
It’s Al and Benny!! Yey!!
I watch Skid Factory and BCW religiously.
I am excited to see this series. So good that I’ve been saving it!!
Last time i was this early, you guys were putting hubcaps on a red Daihatsu.
Looks like bedtime can wait... 😳
bring on the insomnia...
3 am Denver 👍
waited until morning and start the day with MCM and breakfast :)
The fantasmagron everyone has been waiting for. 😎
"The only better option, is the option that you're reading right now in the RUclips comments" LMAO so true. Everyone and their grandpas think they can do better.
Hartbreak1 AND the irony is that they've never built anything in their lives except a 'STICKY SOCK' collection in their parents basement!-0 😁😀👁
Like a Crate LS-5?
SprayIgniteBoom haha yeah the internet is a marvelous thing, everyone is a mechanic, welder, metal fabricator and engineer in their spare time.
I'm really happy with your guys' choice to use a RB26, most youtubers would just do a V8 and I'm SO glad you guys' aren't.
TurboYoda is too Hollywood for you guys now that he has his own show 😂😂
He has his own show?
projectdoomsdayofficial the skid factory on the mcm2 channel
This guys week has just been made if he hasnt found Skid Factory yet haha
I found the show yesterday and binge watched the Fairlane build. You can tell Turbo Yoda isn't shy of a camera anymore.
It feels like turbo Yoda has to dumb everything down for us. So much wisdom.
As they were saying that they need a new engine I was chanting RB. RB. RB. RB. Then it was an rb and I just about shat myself. Good choice fellas
I had the same thing going on. It's like the only swap I'd consider for this car. Rb25 would have even been ok to me, but glad for the 26.
I just kept repeating rb26dett. Lol
Nope, I really thought and hoped it would get a rotary
Myles Burgess dude I was thinking the same
LS swap?
i thought I was going to sleep. mcm proved me wrong yet again
A 240z and an RB26 is the most epic combination ever
I need to get one...they are all typically rotted to hell here in the states. Turbo all the things!
Welcome To The Madness they're rotten in Japan too.
also rare to not be rotted in Australia too.
There are plenty good ones in the states. Roadkill just happened to find the worst one possible. Ironically California is where the good ones are.
the roadkill rotsun is a perfect example of what we have in the states
You can buy mine from me lmao.
The ceo of Nissan told me RB stands for "really badass." ...Ok, ok, ...but it fits
"D= diesel B= Benzin" refferd to Benzine which stands for Petrol.
nah, 🅱️=🅱️etrol, 🅱️ruh
To answer the question:『RB26DETT』という名称は、Response Balance 2600cc DOHC Electronic Twin Turboの英字の頭文字をとった言葉である。
Translation: The English initials of RB26DETT are an abbreviation of Response Balance 2600cc DOHC Electronic Twin turbo.
all these are incorrect
D= diesel , B =batrol?? Logic it there but it is uncomfortable af
RB is Race bred 26 is 2.6L D stands for DOHC E is electronically fuel injected and TT is Twin Turbo
Hey guys, I've got a 240z and I've got a few words of advice that will better the build.
1. Seam weld the engine bay, which it's probably too late for you guys lol
2. Get some industrial expanding foam and fill the body cavities, all the body areas around the cabin are all hollow and you will feel it when you put anymore than the 150hp it was built for
3. An early 2000s sti limited slip diff will bolt right in with a drive shaft adaptor
4. Add more structural rigidity or else you will regret it
5. Por 15 everything you can! Holy cow I lie awake at night thinking about the rust that forms on my z
Keep it up boys, cheers
Can't get over how much I love this channel 😶😶😶
This build Series is going to be lit af, although it would've been nice to hear that old carbureted Inline 6 roar but nonetheless RB swap is best option in my eyes
well there are 1 more option 1jz
Sandza Blasphemy
Id go n/a rb20 with itbs but this works too
Drey Goss whatever they picked would be the "best in your eyes" since you're a follower that can't make independent choices
its so cool to have this build! you guys have advanced so much in your years ive been here! (one of the original subs here)
too bad you dont make so many tutorials anymore, its just builds but i love them too, but i wish you would make diy videos again! (yeah i know you made the roller diy mod but i want car mods :D)
I stopped watching these videos because of problems in my life, decided to watch this build, holy mother of god I've missed you guys!
I was down at the scrap yard the other day and I bought a srt10 viper motor for $400 bucks out of rear ended wreaked srt10 ram truck and putting it in a 240sx drift car but this video reminds me of the time lifting the hood of the car a nothing in there is A frightening feeling but now putting a 700HP twin turbo v10 in there makes me feel better . Thats what I wish you guys did putting some thing crazy in the 280z but GTR RB26 will be good too love it .
Skullinhand Underground damn a v10 for 400$ that’s a steal
The right place at the right time the transmission was badly damaged it cost me more than $2500 to fix but still a deal .
imagine them putting a srt10 twin turbo v10 in the 280z🏎
The only thing about Roadkill and MCM im thinking right now is a battle with Rotsun and 240z GT-R. Too bad this is a very hard thing to happen 😞
240-R?
Ford used a similar diff-in-front-sump design for the 4x4 Sierra and Granada.
InitialDave in the US the Granada was an entirely different vehicle, also the Maverick. It's odd how they recycled the names out there.
You got our Granada as the Merkur Scorpio. Weird, huh?
The new Alfa Romeo Stelvio also uses a similar setup, except the diff isn't part of the sump, but the front left axle shaft passes through a hollow cavity in the sump.
The Sierra is a GMC truck in the US.
Benjamin Hale here's the interesting bit - when Ford launched the Sierra here, there was already a kit car manufacturer called Dutton using the name for their car. Ended up going to court.
I took a year off from the show because I could not afford a car. Now that my car fund has come to life, this is a hell of a thing to find upon my return. Turbo Yoda forever!
That light unscrews with a 1/4 turn, and pulls out, so you can look around the engine. Getting the wires back in sucks!
Yeah & be careful, those light in the engine are hell expensive to replace. ps Love what you guys are doing to the old girl. Lover of old rusty Datsun! :)
Yeah, that's a mistake you only make once. Directly after, you put a flashlight in the glove box.
4:32 anyone notice the "HeAdGaSkEt??" text in the bottom left?
Yeah I did
Yup I did to
Nice DP you have sir @802 Garage
@@Adiism Thank you!
haha I guessed it, now all you need to do is stroke it to 2.8 L and you'll fully sick hectic. and have one of the nicest sounding engines ever made.
I am kind off sad that the stock engine was not able to stay in there. But I am so happy that you are going to be putting the rb in there! Good luck!
Both you guys and B is for Buld building a 240z!? This is going to be an awesome few weeks/months.
I like the black and white color scheme.
10:22 "Bring on the party, Martin!" or maybe even "Bring on the party Martin!" is one of the best: I don't even know what that means.
Oh the agony, oh the ecstasy! The Fairlady is so beautiful and so pristine that it’s almost a crime to put a different engine it. When Al said, “unpick the gearbox mount and move it back there somewhere”, part of my soul died. Then again, RB26 is what makes time travel possible and the show is called, Mighty car MODS. I guess an 11 second S30 would have an allure all its own. It’s gonna be a bright sunshiny day.
240z for mighty car mod
Lambo for tavarish
Honda de sol for Chrisfix
Integea for thatdudeinblue
RX7 for b is for build.
David Ha I believe b is for build just got a 240z, in his paint booth and car delivery video at the end when the car is blurred he missed a frame at the beginning and revealed it by accident.
Lawsuit for Samcrac for owning a DXP car
240SX for saabkyle?
W221 S65 amg for me
Spoilers!!!
Would be pretty cool if you left the RB26 N/A and put some ITBs on it for the first little while, purely for the exhaust note
X7Rotary pretty sure already been done
It already has itbs
iamawatermelon Yes, but the current ones would need to be reconfigured with a stand-alone ECU. I'm not sure how involved that is, so it might be simpler to source aftermarket ITBs such as Jenveys
I’m too purist to do that if I had an RB26.
rb26DE (NA) exists, youd think a purist would know that.
That is the only engine supposed to go in there, great choice! I'm just a bit disappointed that you are going to get rid of the individual throttle bodies. For a turbocharged car, it will probably not make a lot of difference to the performance, but the induction noise will not be as good and the cool-factor definitively suffers ;-)
For any who are curious, Moog was saying "Ibiza" light (pronounced ebeetha). Ibiza is an island in the Mediterranean Sea, off the coast of Spain and known for massive parties. I think they were saying that the underhood light was some sort of strobe light. You're welcome.
arggggg neeeeed more... more I tell you!
Best MCM car ever...
Turbo Yoda is zen af!
Finally the grandfather of all jdm heroes arrived i couldnt wait for this episode congratulation guys 😎😎
Throwback mom's driveway video...? just saying!
Great show, great guys and a great ethos. You guys are keeping youtube great, in my opinion, and has so much respect for what you are doing. Great article on the roadkill situation, very MCM style but informative. Keep it up!
edit: just read the article (mightycarmods.com/blogs/news/21-reasons-why-we-don-t-film-on-the-driveway) ... forget about the throwback!
This is gonna be so sweet! I love it already! You're keeping the wheels, right? They look perfect for that car!
Agreed. The paint, body kit, and wheels are perfect together.
18:31 That music & the RB reminds me of that Tokyo Drift scene where they put the RB in the Mustang 😀
anotherone10 was that not an sr20 correct me if I'm wrong
It was an RB26
Oh right learn something new everyday suppose I thought it was an sr20 based on the fact that it was in an s15 never imagined there would've been an engine swap haha
May i suggest "When mechanics go crazy" videos? RUclips has PLENTY of wild swaps right down to hyabusa engines in smart cars. I Believe you will enjoy it.
Must check it out thanks man!
I was so hoping that this would happen, really stoked for you guys! Can't wait to see it all finished up
Mighty Car Mods just read the whole article very well written I completely understand why roadkill pulled their show it doesn’t change the fact that it was supposed to be a RUclips show and now they’re making us pay for something they always promised would be free the show was always about budget if I really want to see a serious build I would just go to MotorTrend OnDemand but roadkill supposed be extremely cheap like go pros and $1000 car cheap not like the general mayhem with an engine out of a hellcat that’s ridiculous And not what we wanted to see it’s very cool but I rather see them get a POS Datsun truck strap a eBay turbo and see if they can hit 11’s safety with y’all you don’t need to do crazy stuff just keep it simple most of us can’t even afford it so it’s really cool seeing it done and I’ve been watching your videos for as long as I can remember even before I had a licenseDoing mods to my moms car out front of our house and starting the car and reving it in the driveways but just remember where you came from keep it cheap that’s what we like to see don’t get me wrong you submit some beautiful videos you’re music is always on point and your cars are awesome
Thank you for all the videos you’ve uploaded every time you’ve spent your whole night editing don’t ever think I don’t respect that thank you for everything y’all do but when it comes down to crazy builds and less you guys are super down to do it you don’t have to watch pretty much anything y’all up load we like your personality not just the cars
And keep in mind the only reason I started my RUclips channel it’s because of people like you giving basic instructions but keeping it fun I think that’s why everybody modifies the car just to have fun why they do it!
The RB in RB26 apparently stands for Response Balance.
Response Balance 2600 c DOHC Electronic Twin Turbo
RB is 🅱️etrol
It makes sense in german. Petrol= Benzin.
@@jsplit9716 turkish too petrol = benzin
Just floored at the cool builds you keep putting out there. As someone who doesn't have a lot of money to buy different cars, do different builds, etc, it's amazing to live vicariously through these wonderful projects. You get to be emotionally invested in a car you love, but might not ever be able to own. Thanks so much for your hard work guys and keep it up. I'll be sure to buy some more merch to help you guys keep rolling!
Hands down most exiting build! :D (is it a thing to detune an engine from turbo to n/a? to keep it driver focused and not a speed demon thing)
OYASUMI 974 not really.. but han from fast and furious put a rb26 na with itbs in his 240z so I guess it's been done lots of times with different engines
Jesse Arends yeah the fuguz
You can pull the turbo off one, but typically a factory turbo engine will be lower compression which would make for a low power and lazy n/a engine.
Once you guys revealed the Fairlady had no engine. I thought to myself why isn't this car in Alan's garage.
I'm in the process of getting a 260z back on the road.
Tyler Andrews nice bro hope it can make to the road quickly, I'm trying to get my 280z on the road as well.
Moog and Marty. Firstly I have been watching your vids for like ages now but I feel I should point out one quintessential fact that has been over seen. I in my younger years owned a 240z, which I had modified with a 350 chev and was great till VicRoads pinged me for not having an engineers cert which was I assure a very exorbitant nasty fine. I removed the motor and sold it then used the motorless vehicle as a deposit for an 87 Nissan Pintara. Had I had foresight and known how much the Aus delivered Z would be worth today I never would have got rid of it... Anyway now to the point, apart from having owned one and would love to find another to buy and love more than the wife I must say that your calling it a 240Z may be incorrect. The 240Z had it's reverse light incorporated within the assembly with the stop and indicator. The later 260Z had the stand alone reverse light either side of the number plate and not within the tail light assembly, the same body differences applied to the states, here in Oz and in Japan.. Don't hate me for pointing this out but thought the 40 and the 60 look similar, the 260 changed subtle thing like the tail lights to differentiate the different models... Keep up the great videos.... I look forward to every episode
Cheers
