Your right, but also its a JDM, the light lay out is the same as my S1 JDM, yet my UK car has the same light lay out as the top picture (water bottle level light)

Three Legged Chickens -

A man was driving down the road and noticed a three legged chicken racing along beside his car. When he looked at the speedometer he realized that the chicken was running over 75 miles per hour. The amazed driver followed the chicken for several miles until the chicken turned down a gravel road. The driver followed the chicken to a huge poultry farm. All around the farm there were three legged chickens as far as the eye could see. The driver stopped his car and then seeing the farmer feeding the chickens he asked him about the three legged chickens. "Well you see," started the farmer, "I am a genetic engineer and the leg is my favorite piece of chicken. It is also the favorite piece of my wife and my son. I got tired of having everybody fighting over the leg at dinner so I just developed a chicken with enough legs for us all." "What a great idea!, "said the driver, "How do these three legged chickens taste?" "Well, "said the scientific farmer, "I don't know. I've never been able to catch one!"

No worries matey, glad to help out. Maybe he kept them in for mot reasons, or has hi-flow cats.

hi buddy yes its been a while.

 

the temp probe wires can be removed then, should only take 1 hour max.

 

oil leaks are the bane of my life luckily not on the z just the other cars LOL

I have a water leak, might not be as annoying as a oil leak, still darn annoying, considering its looking like the passenger side turbo :ph34r:

Done a few jobs on the silver z and this is my next project, where would i find the temp probe wires?

correct, top = UK, Bottom = JDM

 

They're both import dashes mate!!

 

Both have the speedo in km/h and neither has the headlamp washer button on the headlamp switch.....

 

......the purpose of the 2 pic is so that you can see the lower bank of lights underneath the main dash. I think Daz is right about the different series cars though; as one has the later (series 2) a/c control.

 

Richard:cool2:

I have something to say............ It's better to burn out than to fade away..... :tt2:

Dave,

 

As you probably discovered by now, you don't have Cats on Silver Streak. You do still however have the CAT sensor probes in place which are wired up next to the where the cats should be (the flexi pipes are around that sort of area now).

 

What you are seeing is the cat sensor occasionally touching the body work or exhaust and therefore earthing itself out. This will make the cat warning light come on as it connects with Earth.

 

Very easy fix, you just need to get under there and locate the sensors and insulate them and tie them up a little better, I have these all nice and tidy but believe the the owner after me had the Diff replaced or repaired, so it's very likely they have been messed with and have started to work themselves loose.

 

In Summary, it's not a problem, just a pain when lights come on and off for no apparent reason.
