Sump plug washer size
The bolt is an M12 and the part number from Nissan for the washer is 11026-01M02, any Nissan dealer should have one in stock as they are used on other Nissans too. NB it is a copper crush washer, so enables a seal by the very nature of its design, do not try and fit a normal washer as you will end up with leaks

pcv valved re-visited tech
They are spring loaded, albeit not very strong and do rattle when you shake them from side to side, the spring holds it open while engine is off This may help http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?176698-pcv-valves-explained-part-1

led bulbs in instrument cluster
You can pick up the feed from the two prongs at the bottom of the dash, which supply the 4 little bulbs that face the dials, as you look at the dash, left is positive :thumbup1:

led bulbs in instrument cluster
The 5 way 501 leds is what i used to use, but like you after a while one or more of the cluster would lose an led and and another started to flicker, i changed to 5 way smd leds and had no issues, but the light spread is not as good as the domed led heads, but by adding an led strip around the inside of the dash binnacle really makes the difference, thus making the rear 501 leds to concentrate on lighting the needles. The link has white ones, but gives you an idea of what you are looking for :thumbup1: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/10x-ERROR-FREE-CANBUS-T10-5050-5-SMD-LED-XENON-HID-WHITE-W5W-501-SIDE-LIGHT-BULB-/291361079843?hash=item43d6794223

good garage in South east
Im sorry but you dont need a specialist to do the brakes on a zed, i would take it to another garage lol Abs may just be a sensor need replacing, again nothing beyond the reach of a capable garage, obviously any major engine work then best use a specialist of which we have a couple in the club under the traders section :thumbup1:

Restoration (nearly) finished
The needle can often do that in transit, you need the front perspex cover off and move it back round with your finger, changing the mileage is another story but can PM you how to do it later on if you want

Restoration (nearly) finished
Looking fab mate, you will need to take your dash clocks out again to sort your speedo needle though:whistling:

Fog light switch wiring!
One wire is a ground, so you only need run one live wire to the switch from your fogs, ie through the car to the dash pod or under the car to the front fogs for speed.

Squeal/scream noise on full boost. Listen to video please.
Really hard to tell mate, as the clip is so short, i played it over about 20 times and can possibly here some sort of exhaust leak possibly. Rolling road or on a ramp with the wheels lifted might be easier to diagnose.

What did you do to your zed today?
Above the clutch pedal up under the dash and iirc the vac pipe comes off the balance bar into the bulkhead
