I posted the following query to the vendor for this item. I'm curious what sort of response will surface.

I see no flow tests posted on these. Did those who bought them, buy them strictly because they looked like AMS/MSP manifolds or because of the price or a combination of both? I would have thought most Z owners were a bit more of an educated consumer than that. Bought on looks and price not even knowing what their potential could be, if any. There's no flow tests available, no dyno's posted, yet you guys bought them anyway???

What was the ebay price for the cast manifolds as all of the ebay links no longer work of course. Does the ebay ones offer some sort of warranty? I believe the AMS manifolds have come down in price and may be price-competitive. Contact AMS directly to see if a price matching arrangement can be made. BTW, are these still even listed on the UK ebay?

^^Thanks Si I just got my second disc from one of the pro photographers from The Tail of The Dragon. I'll have to upload those ones too. :)

Oh ya, I'm going for sure. I've got my time off from work booked already. I think the biggest thrill for me will be the biggest Z roadtrip/caravan I've ever heard of. The day after Z Nationals in (near Atlanta Georgia) Sunday we form up to take a two day drive to San Antonio Texas for ZCon (probably the largest gathering of all makes of Z's and attended regularly by MR K himself for numerous years) which lasts for almost a week. The Caravan from Z Nationals to ZCon will make it's Sunday night stop-over in New Orleans. I can just imagine nearly a hundred (wishfull thinking) Z's travelling together. Z1 Motorsports is sponsoring the roadtrip too, leading the pack with a very nicely modded 370Z.

^^^ Thanks Si. I have you mostly to thank for that. And you'll be 100% responsible if I end up installing an Ionicdynamics 99/00 spoiler next winter. :)

Thought I'd share a few changes to the Z. I have to chop this up in chuncks since it won't allow more than 10 pics per post - NUTZ!

Nice to see yo again Jimmy. I thought the opening post was specific bu perhaps not specific enough. Yes, I know my original post was deleted due to stringent rules and fully understand the requirement of such. The soul intention of the initial post was to see if there was enough interest in this particular product - nothing more or less. No price setting or order taking was going to be entertained. When it was felt that there was enough interest shown by the membership at large, then a decision would be made to proceed to the next level. That being to contact the Admin staff to properly set up an order taking and price setting thread including the the Forum fees tagged on. There was no subterfuge(sp) intended and everthing mentioned was all above board. Andy and I both appreciate the need to protect the Forum membership.

Andy, here I find you schmoozing the locals - what's up with that? Yes, I own a Z too; Ontario Z Fest 2008 ZCon 2008 http://www.300zxclub.com/showthread.php?t=138283 Mid Ohio Racetrack at ZCon 2008 ZDayZ (Tail of The Dragon)2008 My favourite from the Dragon; Nissan Sport Magazine group photo shot at ZDayz. I was lucky enough to be placed on the front row - far right. Last winter;

Installed mine almost 2 months ago. I'm very happy with the fit and finish. very lightweight indeed. Spddracer is currently working on a similar one to replace the front splash guard.

:o

You mean snow like this Si? Now get back and finish that interior. :tongue:

Si; where are the finished install pics?

There you go mate; http://jdmfairladyz.com/index2.html http://www.z32-zone.com/z32_mainte_menu/z32_dressup_menu.htm

Sheesh Si, You didn't finish this thread. I tried today to put my USDM leather electric drivers seat into the passenger side of my J-Spec and the only loom that I noticed was for the seatbelt warning. I didn't actually go and search under the carpet for extra looms but I would have readily saw it if one was present. So what was your outcome Si? Did you just run a spur off of the driver's side? If you've got or are going to take some pics of this process (which you ususally do), will you be posting them on 3ZC as well. I sure could use them and the gang there will do their normal drooling as well. John

Oh Oh. I just got this from the Aussy Forum; Not quite the same?? 24110-42P00 vs 24110-40P00. Could it be one is for UK Spec and one is for J-Spec? Although I thought there shouldn't be any difference. I would have thought that the J Spec / AU Spec / UK Spec part numbers would be the same since they're all RHD. Now I don't know which one to order.
