He does design and make great products for the Z32 and as such is a rapidly diminishing breed. Unfortunately, the only way I would buy any AshSpec product is through a reputable dealer who actually stocks the product (for example SpecialityZ). More so as we are on the other side of the Atlantic.

235 width on 8J and 265 width on 9J are correct fitments. They don't look stretched to me.

You are ahead of me Nick! Have you ordered a planar kit as I gather that SZ are out of stock?

Having removed the rubber T piece are you still using the stock intake pipes to the turbo compressors?

Just remind me to keep clear of any avionics you might have worked on!

Surface mounted components can be tricky to remove (as you have found out). However, one of these (or similar) makes the job much easier. https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/desoldering-guns-pumps/4794197/

Poor clock!

As our Australian friends would say:

The conical mark on the display itself is normal for this type of device - a vacuum fluorescent display. We were being lazy calling it an LCD. The condition of the IC on the back however is not normal, and suggests that it has been fried (heat damage). Possibly by connecting the power supply up incorrectly.

Personally I would have an inline fuse (say 1amp) between the battery +12v and the crocodile test lead going to the clock.

Was the clock working when fitted in the car before?

Here is the schematic Tom. The clock relies on two +12v supplies (one for running with LED display on/key in and the other for no key in). Ground wire and two wires to control dim display when lights are on. You can work out the colours from the clock's chassis plug and the diagram. el-68.pdf I've ammended the above description Tom as there are *two* connections to the illumination control system. Clock's chassis plug colours: R/Y (red/yellow stripe) is to illumination control system LG (light green) is swiched +12v (ignition key accs) B (black) is ground R/L (red/blue stripe) is to illumination control system Y is constant +12v

At the backend of the JDM FAST section listings are a bunch of accessories and options listed (all in Japanese of course). One of these days I'll go through them and make a listing of them for here.

along with windscreen wipers.

Yes you are right - fog light is on same side as driver for UK and Euro specs. Thinking about it a bit more, the clock position is altered (to be closer to the driver) and the binnacle functions are mirrored as is the indicator stalk.

and headlights.

It is quite subtle as you can see in this picture:

Does that mean at some point you will be selling your lovely LMs?

Firstly check the level in the reservoir for fluid loss.

Sat 26th to Mon 28th is fine with us.
