Hey all, name is Dan 22 from Thornhill. Got my first 240 a few days ago, its a 1991 fastback absolutely mint condition with no winters. Took some pics with my phone, will have better ones later. Hope to meet lots of you at the Richmondhill meet and other events, peace.

hey guys  
I got recommended to this site from JP.  
Anyway I drive a '76 Datsun 280Z with an LS1 swap  
I ran a 12.66 at StThomas as I destroyed my half shaft this weekend.  
Good times 🙂

The motor has the LS6 intake on it as well as a cam. Obvious mods are headers and custom exhuast from the headers back.  
I’m running the GM PCM which has modifications via HPTuners.  
If you want in progress pics of the swap I can direct you to a link here:  
[http://procision-auto.com/ProAuto/Datsun\_LS1/](http://procision-auto.com/ProAuto/Datsun_LS1/)  
Procision-Auto was the shop that did the swap/work for me. Tino did th swap, fuel system, clutch and wiring/programing. Full Throttle Welding did the intake piping, rad hose and full exhuast. They did a bang up job as you can see. 🙂

Anyone know where I can find an LSD for an R200?

i did the cam swap, intake, valvetrain.  
i also did the door panels and seat install as well as the complete stereo.  
the hardest part was the tranny mount as the datsuns aren’t known to be exactly the same from car to car so a little modification to the mount needed to be made for it to fit properly. otherwise it was pretty straight forward.
