In the 1970s, the Japanese automotive market experienced a significant boom. Accomplice to this was the extraordinary ability of Japanese designers to interpret all the stylistic trends of the time, enclosing them in a frame with a strong identity of its own.
The Datsun 240z has proportions very close to those of the Ferrari Daytona, 2 dry seats, long hood and truncated tail. This parallelism is emphasized by the choice of color, Rosso Cordoba Metallizzato, iconic Ferrari color of that time. The chrome plating has been darkened using a trivalent chrome process (in compliance with the latest European environmental regulations).
For the rims, the choice has fallen on a modern reinterpretation of a great Japanese classic, the Watanabe RS, which on this occasion are produced by Japan Racing and are coupled to a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires. The car features enlarged and contrasting painted wheel arches, consistent with the modifications of the historical period.
The dashboard and cockpit are upholstered in soft Alcantara®, in combination with Vaumol® Connolly leather. The carpet is made of Sisal, a natural fiber extracted from the sisal agave. In the choice of this material there is a strong reference to some elements of oriental interior design. Stereo system with JBL woofer/middle/twitter with Bluetooth interface for smartphones.
The engine is the original L24 6-cylinder in-line carburettor engine with increased compression, polished ducts and head, balanced connecting rods with the shaft and lightened flywheel. As for lubrication and cooling, an increased oil pump and an aluminum radiator, also increased and coupled by a double electric fan, have been installed.
The suspensions, now D2 Racing, boast extreme versatility, thanks to the 36 possible adjustments. For an optimal driving experience, special attention has been paid to the stabilizer torsion bars, which has been implemented by a set of High Performance polyurethane supports.
The exhaust acts as a bridge between Italy and Japan. It conserves the same double barrel layout of the original, but it is produced by the iconic Abarth brand.

ABOUT
Nel linguaggio informatico, un hub (letteralmente fulcro, elemento centrale) non è altro che un concentratore, un dispositivo che funge da nodo di smistamento di una rete di comunicazione dati organizzata. Insomma, si tratta di una scatoletta in grado di connettere più computer tra loro creando così una rete.
Garage Italia Hub nasce proprio con l’intenzione di creare una rete sempre più ampia per condividere con voi nuove idee, progetti e contenuti digitali.
Da qui l’idea di creare una piattaforma che sia il centro della nostra creatività… ma anche della vostra.
