dump valves not WHOOOOOSHING???
they look like they are fitted ok, so long as the original ones have been removed and the little hose from the top goes to balance bar. But because they are not meant to make any noise dont expect too much from them bud. Personally i would replace them with proper atmospheric dump valves. If you need to find the originals, they are under the centre panal between the headlights, under the air filter assembly, either side of the auxillery fan. I can take a picture of some if you need one.

dump valves not WHOOOOOSHING???
Dump valves that 'whoosh' are supposed to be atmospheric dump valves, meaning that the sound comes from excess pressure being released into the atmosphere when open. Yours are recirculating dump valves as opposed to atmospheric dump valves. Recirculating dump valves are supposed to be plumbed back into the intake, like standard dump valves. The reason yours dont make much noise is because they are not supposed to, they will but not like the 'whooosh' you are hoping for id imagine. Did they used to make a loud noise and now they dont?

they are recirculating dump valves mate, note that there is no trumpet, instead there is the fixing you attach a hose too which is normally used to plumb back to the intake

Gave retrimming a go, not the best finish but i suppose its better than spending 1k.
I always thought the black alacantara that they did was gorgeous, i bought some red like you did but gave it away with the car.

Fitting dump valves
those are the same as the ones above, If you buy these ones though, they are half the price and you only need a bit of hose and a few blanking plugs http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/UNIVERSAL-BLOW-OFF-VALVE-SINGLE-TRUMPET-DUMP-VALVE-NEW_W0QQitemZ310113650871QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item310113650871&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1683%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318

air suspension
you can get some seriusly good suspension parts without that tat mate, although you will probably enjoy the manual box more than most thing you can buy of the shelf such as: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Breaking-300ZX-Z32-parts-BILSTEIN-shocks-and-springs_W0QQitemZ360138812067QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item360138812067&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66%3A2%7C65%3A10%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318
