Hey Guys!

Been a long time lurker really on here and not posted much so I thought Id put a post up re my 260Z project!

I bought the car back around 6 months ago now and since, its largely sat on its own in my unit whilst I broke a knackered 240Z I acquired which was taking up space.

I am slowly getting to the point where I can start working on the 260Z! smile

Anyways, here are some photos! From what I can see so far its pretty solid... The inner sills seem largely OK at the moment as does the floorpan, though I am prepared for nasties to spring up at some point!

When I first picked the car up:









How it sits at the moment:

Nice project!

An RB25DET might be a nice touch to bring it closer to the 21st century?

Thanks guys! smile

The original plan was to put an SR20DET in it but I am not sure weather to rebuild the standard L26 or go modern at the moment!
