If only the L-Series made it into the 90’s. Even a Cross-flow L28 would be amazing. That motor sounds absolutely gorgeous, hopefully you give those turbo’d Miata’s a good scare
I had a 72 when I was 19 years old and even though it was a piece of rolling rust I still loved that car. This one here is stunningly beautiful, what a beast. Great job buddy, wow :)
If this car were manufactured today "as is" it would be on back order for two years! A friend of mine in Florida bought a 70"s 240 circa 1985 and drove it like a race car everyday... Never let him down!
OS cross flow!! Great engine. Was talking to an OS employee in Japan the other day...said its apx $50,000 for the conversion; just the head and engine block though. Not cheap...but that sound and that high revving L power...very nice.
@@BakerDeltaFour An Australian guy had the right idea, e36 m3 engine, straight six, naturally aspirated, individual throttle bodies, and it won't cost $50K either.
I miss my 71 240z. It had a 78 motor bored out to 3.1 liters with a turbocharger putting out 20lbs of boost. The car had 525 hp & ran mid 11's with 3:31 gears in the back.
Love side drafts! I had a 240Z with a rack of them, long tubes, away bars that used to rip and ripple chunks of metal out of the attachment points...so much fun to drive!
All motor engines are always my favourite, especially when it has individuals on it. I especially adore the Inline 6s, because they sound sooo orgasmic with individuals
That is one sexy 240z. I used to own a white one back in college (1983). Actually, it started out as a piss yellow/green car that was painted white. It annoyed me because I could see evidence of the old color here and there, but I sure loved that car! It was pretty damn rusty on the floor pans and other places but looked good at a distance. I put a couple Weber carbs on it, got rid of the pollution crap, lowered it and changed the wheel tire combo. Made for a fun autocross car. It was never perfect. I wished I could have owned one brand new. The next big Japanese car to come out was the Rx-7. My Father bought one brand new in '79 and then I bought a brand new FD in '95. Still own it today. Great car! I'd still love to have a clean Z again! The car in this video is absolutely beautiful!
Why there is no comments. Everybody speechless about the astonishing work ? Has to be that. I got shivers of those sounds of beauty headers. This is truly great built. Thanks for uploading.
Awesome video!! I love how it tells a story with video, rather than just 4 minutes of the same thing over and over. The music during the build scenes was a nice touch too.
Had a '72 as my first car outfitted mostly like this narrow body. White, overider deletes, air dam, clear covers, euro tails, Recaros. Hooker headers, Ceterlines in 15's. Sadly I could not afford a built motor with triples. The SUs would have to suffice. This was the 80's so it had stripes...ugg. I'd love to do another one...this time with my Son. The only bummer is that 281 #. Thank you for not putting on those craptacular flares. Amazing car.
Beautiful just a work of art amazing . The 3.3 l with the after market head seems ti fit better than an RB30. I have seen swapped into the chassis. That kind of power & torque means this thing is brutal on acceleration. Excellent job congrats..
I am a broke college student as well and I am rocking a 280z, dropping a turbo in later next month and then a stroker kit in early February. Don't let your dreams be dreams.
Also a broke college student. It took me two years but I found a super clean 240Z I could afford. It took swapping the head and head gasket but that was pretty simple.
$3,200 for a 100% complete car. Not a single rust spot, rust hole or even surface rust. Someone put a paint job on it that's about a 7 out of 10 so it looks fine but will definitely be painted at some point.
I live in the bay area and bring my 370Z to the Z car garage in San Jose. Rob Fuller and the guys do great work there and are wizards when it comes to Z cars. I'm bringing mine in next week to get stainless steel Teflon brake lines installed. I had some Hotchkis sways installed there and they really improved the handling of an already great handling car.
I put a smiched up 280Z motor into a 240Z, 5speed and yes, the speedo needle went off the dial. Port Augusta to Spud’s Roadhouse in 58 minutes, in 1991. That’s in South Australia.
awsome car! love the sound of that inline 6 twin cam, and triple webers! close to 400 bhp without turbo! That is SICK!!! ((but i dont think that a turbo, belongs in a Fairlady anyway)) Carbs, is the right way to go,in a cool classic like this! (just my personal opinion!) Congrats,to the owner of this great looking/sounding piece of greatnes!! (RESPECT!!) ¨sorry 4 my poor english¨ ;P
Awesome to see a running version of this unique head design.There is a project to recreate this dual overhead cam style head for the L-series on Hybridz.org The design being built is based on the modern head design from the Honda K series I believe
This is the way 240z's should be resto'd. forget the rb26 and 600 hp as this isn't the original ethos of the car. The sound this thing puts out and the respectable hp is all you need. This is one of the nicest 240z's on the net.
Your 240Z is fricken awesome man, love it. makes me miss my Datsun days as i had a total of 16 Different Datsuns and 15years later I still have datsun fever. noticed all the others you damn horder just kidding Lol.
So awesome 😍 But those power figures are at the crank, not wheel horsepower. Considering about a 15% drive train loss it makes about 320ish to the wheels which is still great for that naturally aspirated 3.3 and weight of the car.

The RB series is the successor.

OS Giken's DOHC crossflow head.....!! It's very precious parts.
@Onur Genc Gollum approves.....
I wonder if its 4valves
@@tomvershay4281 it is 4 valves per cylinder because its DOHC (Double Over Head Camshaft)
@@animeguy4762 there are DOHC 2 valve per cylinder engines. Just look at old toyota perforamnce engines like the 2T-G
Overnight parts from japan
This thing is literally my dream car and man one hell of a build on the engine, tho it was giving me some Devil z vibes 😂
My dream car aswell
I'm not sure where I seen the empty body shell like the 240z one , and yeah at that time it looks like a 280z body
Sounds happy at 8000rpm. Looks like a handful to drive. Im sure it turns heads especially when the skyline is rolling beside it....👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

This is the greatest sounding thing I've ever heard.
this datsun is a masterpiece, so gorgeous
BROOO when you hit us with that: “akuma no Zeto” theme for the engine install... oooooo my God I got chills.

just 3 notes from this song and i get goosebumps for a week, its like the Devil played it himself
Why there is no comments. Everybody speechless about the astonishing work ? Has to be that. I got shivers of those sounds of beauty headers. This is truly great built. Thanks for uploading.
love it. love a good NA car, all motor always my favorite.
Beautiful car with style and function speed and that straight 6 noise orgasmic 😜👍
I remember those dual overhead cam cars.
Those Dat - Soons worked very well.
Which DOHC cars?
In 1972 my friend had a 240-Z and we beat the Piss out of it, and it was Bulletproof, Awesome build Dude.
Sound is hell 🔥🔥. This is how engine should be looks like.
That is a the best 240z build ever. Great job and thanks for not cutting up the body.
This is the most beautiful Datsun I ever seen, absolutely my style.
Gorgeous vehicle. Perfect weapon for the streets. And man, that straight six is sounding mean.
Beautiful work !
Awesome video!! I love how it tells a story with video, rather than just 4 minutes of the same thing over and over. The music during the build scenes was a nice touch too.
Wow! that throttle response is very sharp
The wangan midnight music always hits me in the feels, car makes a nicer music for sure
WHAT A PERFECT PRO-TOURING JAPANESE CAR .
THE ENGINE SCREAMS ITALIAN STYLE ... SO COOL, SO CLEAN ...
This car looking at it and seeing how it revs and accelerates including the Wangan Midnight OST playing, gives me the goosebumps
Rebello's has been killing the Z game for decades. Great work.
3.3 is a lot of stroke for this engine very impressed💪💪
Love the way those side draft carbs sing
She’s a beauty!! I missed my 87 300Z
That's an absolutely perfect Z car, it has reached the best it can be.

roger depew that cylinder head is legendary. More so "unobtanium" than aftermarket.
I had a 1976 280z. Still a timeless design car from the first Z car of this style to the last
Mine was a 1973 and I miss her very much. She could fly....
外観、内装、エンジンすべてにおいて完璧な1台
Black Beauty I would kill for that car.
Whoever's shop that is, save me a 240z. I love them but at the moment I'm a broke college student.
I am a broke college student as well and I am rocking a 280z, dropping a turbo in later next month and then a stroker kit in early February.
Don't let your dreams be dreams.
what motor you got in it?

That is a fantastic Z car! Glad it didn't get a Chevy V8 like many I see now.
crossflow head! enough to give any true Z man a woody. gorgeous engine and car.
Car companies should bring back all these models .

So clean, hiding all the artwork under the hood .
かっこいーな！ 私の青春時代の車だ。 大切に乗って下さい。
this engine is like as endgame as it gets for me at least
A whole year past and I'm back... Ok, got a thumbs up, but only for the Car!
1:59.... Love watching that needle snap... Pure joy.
dude,that sound when he lets off the gas at high revs... idk how to explain
Impeccable! Astonishing work, and art to extract that power!
Imo, The best Z I have seen. Great job guys!
What a beautiful build! Must be great fun to drive!
The BEST handing sports car I've ever driven
The design and handling characteristics were or taken from the Jaguar XK one badass fine handling car also
Beautiful and great piece of art. You made the car look and perform as it should. Fantastic craftsmanship.
awsome car! love the sound of that inline 6 twin cam, and triple webers! close to 400 bhp without turbo! That is SICK!!!

Gotta love the "Lean Spit" at the 1st start up......... :)
The engine would never die it was everything else around it that would first
Mon dieu !! De l'orfèvrerie ! Un bijou et ce son😍😍

To any LS Swappers, listen to this.
This looks to have been built with the care and finesse that it takes to make a Rolex watch both inside and out. So nice

Best I've seen.
best sounding engine ever 👍🇯🇵👍
Incredible sound.

the sound of some badass hp
That car looks and sounds absolutely amazing. 👍🇦🇺
That is some reve rpm on that engine,,, great z
Love black on these cars.
Clean, clean, clean... Well done!

So awesome 😍
But those power figures are at the crank, not wheel horsepower.
Considering about a 15% drive train loss it makes about 320ish to the wheels which is still great for that naturally aspirated 3.3 and weight of the car.
