Electrical issue
When all the work is complete you need to do a boost / air leak check, because if you have inadvertedly caused a leak you will have running problems, and if you don`t have obvious running issues don`t be fooled into thinking all is ok, a small leak will not cause too much problem`s but will increase the amount of turbo lag by virtue of the fact the turbo`s need to fill the leak before they fill the engine ( basically stated non techy ) Jeff TT

Drivers Side door lock...broken
The part that breaks is only available with the barrel and cost on the region of £55 from Nissan. If you need one quickly just remove the one from the passenger door lock, how many times do you need to be able to open the doors from the passenger side, they are handed but with a small tab filed off it fits.

changing the angle of the window on SWB
There are two ways to adjust the window, the window guide is held into the door by 2 adjustable fixings, the lock nuts are loosened and then a screw driver is used to turn the centre bolt in or out. At the top of the door where the window emerges are two adjustable stops, these can be raised or lowered independently and allows you to adjust how high the window goes before it stops, by adjusting them separately you can tilt the window forward or backwards slightly. Of course all these adjustments require the door panel to be fully removed. Jeff TT

UK Rear fog light connections
There is no wiring loom in the rear of the jap spec zeds for rear fog light. To use the front fog light switch just run a cable from the rear to the relay in the black box under the bonnet on the passenger inner wing. Jeff TT

Timming
Legrath is correct in his explaination of the neutral switch when doing a manual conversion, however as your is still an auto the park / neutral switch in the auto box selector could be faulty or disconnected and causing the same problem. You need to check this out on the ConZult, also check the hard idle switch this must be closed at idle or will again advance the timing. Jeff TT

Real world zed fault cause`s
Sorry should explain, the gasket must of become dislodged when the new turbo`s were fitted by the owner ( yes he did it ) and when the bolts where tightened it crushed the gasket between the flanges. The engine performance was returned to what it should be, now the turbo could spool up and the flange was not leaking. Jeff TT
