I have a 99 version S, it doesnt have the rear spoiler and my question to you guys is, would you add the 99 spec rear spoiler or would you leave it as it came from the factory?

are you shure its KR4 cant see it listed

 

Yeah 100% sure! I have a feeling this color was only introduced to the Z in the later part of production. Its not a bright silver and not a dark grey like the usual Z colors.

 

And it's in the brochure :D

Oh, by the way.....

 

Spoken by Sherlock Holmes in "The Adventure of the Beryl Coronet", written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle :nana2:

 

lol Well spotted. Most think it was spock in star trek.

And it's in the brochure :D

 

Is it! I must have a look now, missed that.

Hence my comment that I cant read Japanese :D

Just see it here at the bottom of page 18! I might try an scan or photograph it and ask a friend that can read Japanese.

Thats unusual,

 

It looks like a series 3/4 but it has the heater controls from the series 1/2. Must have been some hybrid crossover or something!

I was about to make you an offer for the black one - until I saw that funny looking gear lever and realised it was a auto :hurl:

 

Great purchases - truly, you are a man who can have your cake and eat it! :censored:

 

Welcome back to the fold, hope you enjoy 'em

 

And leave the version S exactly how it is - immaculate and unmolested :tt1:

 

Call yourself a piston-head! :tt2: Ya need to learn up on the zeds :lol::lol::lol:

 

(oooh sweet sweet revenge.lol)

Here it is for anyone can work it out

'Next time Gadget, next time' :shifty:

 

OK, allow me to explain. Someone on here was on about turning a series 4 interior into a series 2 by retro fitting some of the controls. The problem was, when you come to fit the heater pods, there aren't enough wires or connections to allow this due to a different loom? So (erroneously), I assumed because of Nissan's cost cutting measures, it was not possible to have climate control on a series 3 or 4. I knew a lot of stuff made a return on the '99 spec (like boost gauge etc), but was under the impression the series 3 and 4 were the poor relations - hence why someone would want to retro fit a series 2 interior into a series 4.

 

So, lengthy excuse over - can I fit climate controls to my Zed ('95)?

 

Answers on a post card please

Machine Platinum

 

Hi Baz,

 

Is that what it says in the pic I posted? or is that you taking a guess at what the color is? Machine Platinum sounds like it fits the bill!

My good friend replied back and said that KR4 is called "Sonic Silver Metallic" and very kindly sent me this also, maybe worth adding to one of the FAQ pages if its not there:

from day 1 I've thought to remove my rear spoiler, a horrid Jap spec 95 version ( the 'horseshoe', is that right?). your pictures have helped me decide. thx.

and the rear wiper is going same day I now think, so double thx for the unintended assist, Sir.

Just had a scan through the site Gary using the translator and its not a bad read!

 

For example: EV1 paint code is a special order and called, Lightning Yellow.

 

Also learned my car has UV cut glass and actually noticed the OEM decal is still on my window which says "UV CUT"

lol not a problem! Always like to help in some shape of form!

I like the midnight purple pearl and I see red is just red and black is just black lol

Gary I read that KH3 is called "Onyx Super Black" which is the paint code of my 95 car. I also like the midnight purple car, there are 2 available that I know off in Japan but not cheap.

 

And this being my 300th post matches the great cars of the club lol

Yes very common from what I have seen based on late spec Japanese super coupes as I call them, which are the ZX, GTO, RX7 and in a much higher bracket, the NSX.
