Welcome to NICO!

The rear is from a Q45

[PapaSmurf2k3]

Well done! Welcome to NICO!

[Dattebayo]

The rear is from a Q45

SO what did you do, swap the Q45 innards into an r200 longnose housing? How did you work out the halfshafts? Or did you use an R230 and work some serious magic?

[PLATA ZVETTE]

^^^^^ short nose, custom cut CV halfshafts from Q45 plus custom made mount

[PLATA ZVETTE]

BTW>>> new this forum format , will post pics of the conversion(if requested) as soon as I figure this out, others forums are very easy to post pictures from the get go.

Thats pretty awesome man. Like!

[Dattebayo]

Hang on, your're in Fulton? Damn, I need to scope this thing out one day soon. You're only about a half hour away or so.

[PLATA ZVETTE]

She is in hibernation at the moment away from salt and damp days, your welcome to visit

[Dattebayo]

Totally. I'll have to bring my good camera, we'll be in touch!

Welcome aboard! I'm a big fan of LS_powered S30s!

To post pics, it's pretty easy - Just load them up in Photobucket or Flickr or whatever you use, R click, copy the image location (URL), then click the "IMG" button while you're writing your post. Paste the URL in there, and you're good to go!

Let me know if you need a hand with it... I'm thinking she needs to be a feature on datsunforum.com.

Pics! Writeup! All of the above!!

Thats awesome man. The technical details on your ride would be invaluable. Granted, its your work and you don't have to share, but a custom project would be awesome to see. Is there a build thread somewhere?

[PLATA ZVETTE]

^^^^There is a one done by the PO on HybridZ and CarDomain under.. qwick240Z / silver bullet. He is a close friend and we traded cars a couple yrs ago .

I agree!

When the weather is nice again, I can volunteer my photographic services for said article.

Here's a few examples (I'd go into more detail but I'm slammed with work tonight...):

Doesn't need to be difficult, can be written in Word or notepad, whatever... It's a great way to get some good exposure!

[PLATA ZVETTE]

Working on it, this Cali Z is very unique , she has a very interesting history , that includes a magazine, a well known Z restoration shop, an LA car museum and has been loved by true Datsun brand fanatics.
