Thanks Jeff for your input. I knew the Champion had fitment issues - as does the 280ZX Champion unit. This is why I was asking about KLS rad - price is about the same, shows that it's a 3 core - but any aluminum rad of the same physical dimensions will be more efficient that a brass rad of the same ...

Has anyone yet tried one of the radiators? https://picclick.com/KKS-3-ROWS-ALUMINUM-RADIATOR-FIT-1972-1973-NISSAN-182468648019.html I'm curious what the fitment is like, and whether the stock fan (and even fan shroud) can be utilized? ha quality looks good - price certainly is good. I do like the di...

Yes, mostly due to aging memory.

Your numbers seem correct Keith.

Swag give away sounds good. Seems we'll have a few visitors from the island as well for 510 Day.

Keith; Art also passed along to me all of his collection of club newsletters. And as you can well imagine, and the enduring legacy to Art- they were in perfect order... I was the 34th member of the club, I can remember Art was #78 - there were over 500 total members through the clubs life until we j...

I remember that snow fall well - New Year’s Eve - 1997. We got 78 cm’s of snow in 24 hours. It was crazy. For a city like Vancouver which deals with maybe a few snow days on average every year - with maybe 5-10 cm’s on average each time - that snow snow call in 97 was epic! No mater where in the wor...

Welcome to the Realm. We have a couple guys here from Portugal.
We’d love to see some photos of your project, am sure glad you were able to save it from being crushed and made into rebar.
We look forward to your updates and photos, welcome to the site.

My $0.02 worth. If you slow motion the vid, the rig barely makes it across the crosswalk before the red light - he was gunning it, no doubt. The pickup however is in the wrong as he turned into the path of the rig. They’re both idiots and the book should be thrown at them both. Thank god there were ...

Robin, I’m highly envious! I don’t have a 510 I’d take out in the snow, I wish I did. I do hold onto those memories of the days where I was rallying in the winter for hours and hours on end - great fun. I took the Armada out this morning in the fresh snow. No one was driving, it was great. But even ...

Hi Matt, send me a PM if the block doesn’t get claimed. I have a home as well locally.

Take care, Byron

Question: is it just sheet metal screws that hold the top part to the tank? Is the no plate that goes underneath? What type of gasket makes the seal between the top part and the tank itself - some sort of gasket?
You’ll have to excuse the 20 questions, but I’d love more information.

Thanks - Byron

Such great times in Motorsport! There was a few footage shots there that I haven’t seen. Nissan (and Toyota) were for the most were part only competing in the Mediterranean and endurance events in Aftrica at the time (Kenya and Ivory Coast), I saw a fleeting glance of a 240RS, a couple Celica shots....

Thanks Henry

Hope to see you and your car out at 510 Day (May 10th) now that you know where I live.

Nice project - welcome to the Realm. You're lucky to have the factory tach... petty tough to find one of those. Glad you kept the L20B.. good move, keep it classy. You have the hot rod E30 (past owner of an 87 E30is - loved every minute of it for 13 years). I too had a long box - it was a 78, dually...

Ok, let’s hear about it - and pics are always great!

Welcome to the Realm.

The Bronze has a full cage, and a roof liner installed like the Z is my only alternative. I’ve always wanted to do this, but have shy’d away because gluing it on would be the only solution- and I suspect one would need some pretty special glue given the heat the roof skin reaches. It would take away...
