dash switch?
hello
i have a really good opportunity to buy a 240z, nice cond. but i was looking for a 260z, mainly in hope of putting air con and the interior was just... nicer so i was wondering, can i switch the dash and interior from a 260z into a 240z? thanks adam. |

Re: dash switch?
if air con is all your after, I remember seeing a a/c unit when I was browsing thru www.ozdat.com last week. It would be an awful shame to give up a 240Z, just for that reason.

Nope....
I had to do that with my 240Z because the GTO type dash fits a 260Z an up Z. Steering column is in a different place and the whole HVAC setup in the center of the dash is different. Sorry.

You can get A/C for a 240Z ?!?!?

Re: WTF?
It was a factory option - a lot of LHD cars had A/C.
But it was CRAP - Yorke compressor, barely able to cool a can of coke, let alone a glasshouse like a Z.... I've thought of putting a condenser/fan assembly in the luggage compartment in order to allow the use of a large capacity unit that can get the hot air from the back of the car.. You could then duct it to wherever you like... Just a thought. Not the my Z will ever have A/C - there's barely enough room for the 2 turbo's let alone a compressor!

Re: WTF?
ive got an A/C on my 260Z 2+2 78 and it works pretty damn well when the fan is actually pushing some air and it doesnt leak out of the hoses

Re: WTF?
The 260Z's used a Sanden rotary compressor (much more efficient & less power-hungry) and the 2+2 has better ventilation anyway. These would both help your situation (but a dodgy fan & leaky hoses wont [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]).
