mmm 240...
i looked at a black 240z with a racing spec engine 2 years ago. wish so much that i had bought it. was only 4.5k :( it was even in fairly good condition! sounded almost as good as the Griff. damn it! everytime someone posts about the 240 im reminded of what i missed out on!

sheared wheel stud
hurtling down the motorway at the weekend i started to brake lightly as i approaced the sliproad and heard a slight banging from n/s/r wheel, only happened when braked that first time so pulled off motorway and stopped car. checked around the car and nothing appeared wrong, gave the wheel a gentle push and pull and found slight play. undid the centre cap and found 1 stud sheared clean off with 1/2 inside my locking wheel nut :( all the others were very loose :( tightened the remaining 4 up as tight as i could and trundled off home. gonna take it to the garage later in the week, what sort of price am i looking at to get fixed? i guess i will have to buy 4 x new long wheel nuts now :( damn, front end respray will have to wait another couple of weeks :headvswal c'est la vie
