J923 EWT
I did a 60k Belt service on it earlier this year,It now belongs to a lad called Matt Clarke.I will not forget him as he gave me a "since you" after collection.Claims his headlamp aim was off since i did his cam belt but it was fine before...

300ZX TT - A18GCK
Are you confusing Greg with somebody else ? I have scoured the internet and never found anything bad about Pro Tuner.The only thing bad you will hear is he is picky ,So if a car is in poor state or badly cobbled together he will refuse to tune it,Which is a good thing right ?

Short gear shifter
The stick will need removing which is possible from inside,Just !! The striker rod replacement requires the box removing.

Short gear shifter
My advice is DO NOT fit one.A alarming number of cars i work on with one fitted have gearbox issues.It will turn your box into a David Brown 6 speed that was fitted into a 1978 Scammell Routemaster.Treat your original shifter to a rebuilt pivot along with new bushes.And if play is still present it is possible the Striker Rod Universal Joints are worn.The striker rod is available new still.

Fuel tank retaining straps
The subframe can 100% stay in for a fuel tank swap unless it is a swb model.I know Stephen your car is a lwb model.

Replacing early harness for “95
I think they are a bit shonky being honest Lee,After a few years they look ancient and do not stand the test of time at all,I would rather have a left hand drive OEM loom than a WS rhd one.

Replacing early harness for “95
The hard part is ac system.I cut the loom at the bulkhead as it saves dragging the ecu plug back through.The easiest way in reality is to de gas the AC system and remove the evaporator from behind the glove box which also has to come out along with the heater blower motor.I have managed several times now to do it with the evaporator left in but detached from its upper fixing on the dash bar.You have to force it down for access to the metal guide plate fitted over the loom as it exits the inside.That is held on with 2x10 mm nuts which are very tricky indeed.I use a qtr drive set up along with a wobbly joint.You will have to bend yourself up to do it but it is possible.

300zx desert spec. Anyone know where Darren Bowden of Dasstech garage is?
2 years ago things were already going south for him & the word was out about his outside work internet " Interests" & Pie Crust promises that cost him his business,I am baffled how still you ploughed on regardless of this as social media was full of this info ? .He is still on Facebook i believe under another name Dazzy B iirc or something like that.I think being honest you have really little chance of seeing the money again.Chalk this one up to experience or buckle in for a long legal ride.Good luck Chap.
