Shoddy Blinkers
So after driving my car around for a couple of weekends the directional signals in my 240z had stopped working properly. It seemed like it would blink whenever it damn well felt like it.
I would hit the blinker switch, and no matter what direction I turned it in it would wait as long as it wants and then blink once or twice, then nothing... maybe.
This past Saturday when i brought my car up to the ZCCNE Charity Tech inspection at A&C Imports in Bedford, New Hampshire, John (The President of the ZCCNE) took a look.
He seem quite confidant that it would be an easy fix, which was great because I was sure it was a major electrical problem. Of course I start analyzing my electrical system first and using common sense last.
After my inspection, John came out to my car with a giant bag of relays, pulled out my blinker relay and swapped in a new one and PRESTO, she worked like new. It turns out that my turn signal relay was full of water! God knows how, but this was definitely the culprit.
After a quick look at the windshield seal area of my car it became clear that the seals were on their last legs... Add it to the list baby!

Polished my knob
I have always loved the Wooden shift knobs that Datsun put in their 240Zs, and I really liked how old and worn mine was.. until I got a wood wheel.
The wood from the wheel Out shined the knob to such a degree that I was forced to do something about it.

Z Car Club of New England - Charity Tech-Inspection
On Saturday April 24th, A&C Imports LLC. of Bedford, NH opened their doors for the Z Car Club of New England's Annual Charity Tech-Inspection.
Never in my life have I seen so many S30's in one place.
We were all lining up for the inspection courtesy of Anthony and Cathy from A&C Imports. Itching to get her up on the lift to see what kind of boogie monsters are lurking under there.
There were an excellent showing of 280ZXs.
The Bad Dog Racing 240z Race car!
My turn!
Up She goes...
So it seems that the previous owner had "replaced" the fuel line.
He literally zip tied it to the chassis.
Aside from a little denting the frame rails are good! Nice and solid as I had hoped!
All in all I think this is definitely one of the coolest Z days ever.
An absolutely FLAWLESS Z31 turbo.
And some of the nicest S30s I have ever seen.
