Rear side lights wont switch off!!
Everything worked as it should before! (Except blue front fogs.) F/fogs on with switch, both blue fogs on, then switch side lights on & offside blue fog turned white! So SVA have said they have change front fogs to white but not sure how or what they have done cos off side is 4x brighter than nearside fog? Did not know that back lights were on all the time. So I parked up having collected car from SVA on Monday. Thats the only electrical component that had to be done for MOT. Rear fog has seperate feed. The rear lights are my side lights but will check all combinations. Thanks for advice.

Hi 300zx's & all!
Sorry I missed this bit when I registered. I see the activity is as lively as it was when I was registered back in 2002! Well I kept my first z for 3 years & I have been z less since March this year:yes: I've imported it & at this moment it's (hopefully) being sorted for MOT, then registering with DVLA for plates & then onto road! I have just sent my subscription off to the club on Friday 27/06/14. First z was red & a UK one! This one is pearl white & Jap! I know & seen members comments about best colour of Z'ds! In common with both they are TTs & autos. Cannot wait to get on the road!! Hi to all (sorry this is long winded)! Art

Rear fog light
Hi Guys! I need some specific advice, I have run a red single 5 amp cable from the front fog light switch to the off side reverse light. On removing the pod that holds the fog light switch there are 6-8 smaller wires in this plug! One thread says use 17 & 18? (That's two wires & I only have one!) Is 17 & 18 +tive & -tive? Therefore do I need to wire an earth from 17 or 18? What do I do? At the rear light there are two wires, Green & Black. I'm I right in that my Red wire will replace the Green (live) & leave the Black (earth) ? Do I need to get an inline fuse? Sorry it's long winded for what some theads on this matter makes it so easy!

MOT requirement
I plan on using the off side reverse light & changing the bulb (for MOT) Where is the best place to locate the rocker switch on the dash? Sorry to jump in this thread!

Replacement dials
Thanks for that. I will get that done.

Replacement dials
Ok, so do I run a wire from the reverse light to the fog light switch on my dash & earth it? Or do I have to put in another switch? Then change the bulb for a 21w red bulb.
-
Replacement dials
Thanks for that, I also need to sort out a rear fog light & like the idea of utilising the inner brake lights good. I dont like the idea of an add on rear fog.

Replacement dials
I have just purchased UK dails for my import which arrived in Southampton 15 May. It appears to be a good option? My requested help/advice is, do I need todo anything else? Just plug in the connectors? (KPH to MPH dials 180mph) Any help welcome Arthur

Anyone imported a Z without a Clearing Agent?
Help required! My Z is sitting somewhere in Southampton docks! (15th May) Hoegh Antwerp of Hoegh Autoliners AS was the ship & it docked in Southampton on the 15th May. I have the B/L, Commercial Invoice & Japanese Export Certificate. Also have a C 384 (Vessels) is this the right one? All I want to do is pay the Import Duty & VAT (how, where?) Go to the port & transport it home to then get work done for MOT & Register! Any Z member imported without a clearing agent? Any advice appreciated. Art

New Z or XR7?
Thanks for all the comments. The zx or rx7 will not be my daily car! I was looking at importing an rx7 with 80km. I really did enjoy the Z so a rx will be totally diferent! Anyone imported a car or used a broker or both? What price do the brokers command? Thanks Art
