M Math Problem… Article and photos by Mary Rozmajzi 400 Sierra Point Pakwy Ten cars met up in Petaluma, CA, for a weekend run to Ft. Bragg, CA. ((1) Datsun Roadster convertible, (4) Datsun Brisbane, Ca 510s, (2) Datsun 240Zs, (1) Nissan 350Z. Lois and Ruffin Apperson were in the final car, a Subaru Outback.

Run host, Ken Clark led the group out of the parking lot, ends July 1, 2017 heading for Highway 1, through Bodega Bay, Jenner, Point Arena, Mendocino, and finally, Ft. Bragg.

Bragg Summary Z News July 2017 Flying Zs at Speed Start By Jason Green Until recently, I was a fan of the push-to-start button, including the one found in my Nissan 370Z. It was more thrilling to hear the engine roar to life at a simple touch than the old-fashioned twist of a key. But my outlook has changed, thanks in part to a bit of humorously bad luck. As I left the office on a recent Monday, my keys, including the fob needed to activate the button, slipped from my grasp and fell through the inch-wide gap between the eighth floor and the elevator I was getting ready to board. What are the odds? I probably should play the lottery. Fortunately, there were people in the building working on the elevators and they were able to recover my keys. But that was the extent of the good news. The fob split apart when it hit the bottom of the elevator shaft, expelling its critical electronic guts to parts unknown. If I want to drive the Z again anytime soon, I’ll have to replace the fob. And it won’t be cheap. If you go through a dealer, the fob runs about $188 and costs $80 to program. Oh, and the Z also will have to be towed to the dealer to be programmed. So, yeah, I’d gladly trade my starter button for a traditional ignition. Ironically, I recently purchased a GTR button to replace the stock button. Anyhow, there are more reasons to be happy than not, especially with ZONC’s annual car show nearly upon us. It will take place July 22 at the Brisbane Marina (see flier on Page 4). If you haven’t already, be sure to register. Thanks for reading. See you on the road soon … hopefully! Page 2 www.ZONC.org Z News July 2017 Datsloco Car Show Article and pictures by Jason Green There’s nothing quite like a gathering of Datsuns and Nissans, and when it comes to pulling them together en masse, few can do it better than Datslocos California. On May 27, Z Owners of Northern California Vice President Linda Williams and I woke up at the crack of dawn to join a colorful caravan of vehicles to the 13th Annual Datslocos Car Show and Swap Meet in Manteca. Our caravan served as a preview of sorts for the event and included a tangerine 510, a range of Datsun pickup trucks, Zs and a silver R32 (Nissan GT-R) with electric blue wheels. A low-slung Mazda RX-7 and a Toyota Supra also showed up. Held in a parking lot near a Bass Pro Shop, the show easily attracted more than 200 entrants and vendors. Among the more eye-catching rides were a Marvin the Martian-themed Roadster, a lifted Datsun 1200 pickup The annual car show began as a swap meet at a home in the (green and reminiscent of the Hulk) and a 510 wagon with early 2000s and soon required a bigger venue. one of the most pristine engine bays I’ve ever laid eyes on.

This was evident by the presence of cars Linda and I were happy to represent ZONC at the car show other than Datsuns and Nissans.

Let’s Begin with a Basic Math Problem… ZONC member, Gino Guillen, his wife and three children (Continued from front page) joined the run in “OL BLU”, their teal 2-door 1971 Datsun 510. And they brought along friends and five cars from the California chapter of Datslocos. (Gino is founder and president of that Datsun club.) Gino traded mechanical labor for “OL Blu” back in 2009. It came “all-original” with an automatic transmission and a shifter on the column. He said the car was so slow, “it Answer—Lois and Ruffin were the only ones on the run to follow the run map. Everyone else followed the lead car and trip navigator Mary Rozmajzl (Ken’s wife). Mary got lost less than a mile from the start and detoured everyone into a Petaluma shopping mall. Carol and Bob Gray came to the rescue in their Nissan 350Z, navigating everyone, minus Lois and Ruffin, back on track. The remainder of the run was uneventful, though quite pleasant with blue skies, ocean views and rolling, winding roads. Lois’ reacted to the turn of events. “So that’s what it feels line on a one-car rally,” she said once everyone caught up with her and Ruffin at the Surf Motel and Gardens in Ft. Bragg. A visit to the Glass Beach was the next stop. It’s always fun to get that one special souvenir. And the Glass Beach offers a few unique ones along with seashells and driftwood.

  • 1 Fundamental Car Groups, 1981-2011
    FUNDAMENTAL CAR GROUPS, 1981-2011 (Shared Body Platforms) 1. The first line of the definition assigns a five-digit number to the car group; the first two digits indicate the manufacturer, based on FARS codes (1=AMC, 6=Chrysler, 12=Ford, 18=GM, etc.); the last three digits are sequential and generally chronological for that manufacturer. 2. The second line assigns a name to the car group and gives the limits of the range of model years for the various make-models in the car group. Car groups are often named after the largest selling make-model with that body platform and/or the wheelbase of that platform (to the nearest inch). 3. The third line shows the wheelbase of the cars in that group, as derived from "New Car Specifications" in Automotive News or Ward’s Automotive Yearbook. 4. The remaining lines list the specific make-models included in the car group, including a five-digit make-model code, the make-model name (plus additional specifications such as "4-door" if not every car of that make-model is in that car group during the specified time period), a range of model years, and the VIN characters that identify specifically which cars belong to this car group (V3 is the 3rd character of the VIN, V34 is the 3rd and 4th character, etc.).

  • 2002 Nissan Sentra SE-R
    Page 1 of 10 2002 Nissan Sentra SE-R The 2002 Nissan Sentra SE-R Sports Sedan - The Legend Returns Nissan has a rich history in the value-driven sports sedan segment, first created by the Datsun 510 in the late 1960s and rekindled with the legendary 1991 Sentra SE-R. The 2002 Sentra SE-R fulfills that role and ensures that Nissan’s leadership in this segment will continue. Initially shown at the 2001 North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January, this new model will be available for sale in fall 2001 in SE-R and ultimate-performance SE-R Spec V models. The original SE-R, produced from 1991 to 1994, was based on the third generation Sentra 2-door sedan. Even though it looked similar to a standard Sentra, a 140-horsepower 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine gave it lots of punch. The SE-R was a Car and Driver “10 Best” winner four times and an Automobile “All- Star” twice, not to mention a favorite of autocrossers and grassroots racers. Even though the Sentra SE-R left after the 1994 model year, it has kept a large enthusiast base with numerous nationwide clubs, magazine project vehicles and motorsports activities. Amongst all of these groups there was one unified cry – bring back the Sentra SE-R. “We are happy to present the 2002 Sentra SE-R to driving enthusiasts everywhere,” said Bill Kirrane, vice president and general manager, Nissan Division. “This car surpasses the original in every aspect and is worthy of the SE-R moniker.” SE-R Style “The first Sentra SE-R was quite understated,” said Kirrane.

    68-73 Datsun 510 Rear Disc Brake Conversion Installation Instructions (Sedan, with stub shaft removal) This procedure outlines the process of installing rear disc brakes from a Nissan 200sx (82-83) or Maxima (86-87) on a 68-73 Datsun 510. Note: There are two ways to remove your old drum brakes. The main problem is removing the drum brake backing plate.
