Thanks for posting Nick, very informative. That No 1 cylinder jacket does look thin even in stock form.

Welcome back stranger!

RIP Tom, such a sad loss.

See attached diagrams for powered seats and Fuse Block Junction Box (located driver's footwell). The connector M12 pin 3 (marked with red arrow) is the factory take off point (white wire) for the powered seats and includes the circuit breaker (also marked in red). You will need to see if the CB is installed as you didn't have powered seats from the factory. bf-56.pdf FBJB.pdf

Best wishes on your Birthday Steve!

Yup, filled to the brim each time including this one - 100 octane fuel in Italy.

As the benchmark, these are OEM 99 spec headlights (cutoffs corrected for LHD).

You would have thought so - perhaps it was damaged post paint. This is what was done... http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/general/view/2621423/Re-Well-that-looks-friggin-awesome.html "I paid $8k for the following work: -Down-to-metal glass-out respray w/ two-stage paint and two-tone masking -Refinish door interior faces, door jambs, trunk interior faces, trunk jambs, radiator support -Shave rear wiper -Shave antenna -Shave rock guard texture from rockers, fenders, doors, and rear bumper -Rust repair on roof -Fit and prep fiberglass nose panel -Fit and prep fiberglass spoiler incl. wiring 3rd brake light -Replace broken windsheild -Rebuild and re-key ignition, doors, trunk, and glove box lock cylinders -Refinish front windshield wiper stalks and side mirror bases matte black -Repair/grind exterior door handles where rubbing" The colour (PPG 791, Ferrari Grigio Medio) is different and I've not see it on any Ferraris over here. It would be good to see the colour in the metal. I think the black roof treatment works rather well on a slicktop. http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/general/view/2621426/Re-Re-Slicktop-TT-Back-from-Paint.html

Now that would be worth seeing - setting A or B Howard?

A SRR session from June '08.

Pity, they are great events. From the Goodwood website: IMPORTANT UPDATE: Japanese Sunday Cancelled Due to the recent wet weather and the resulting condition of the car parks surrounding the Motor Circuit, we must sadly inform you that this weekend’s ‘Japanese Sunday’ Breakfast Club is cancelled. This is not a decision that has been taken lightly, but one that we have made in order to ensure the safety of our customers.

Ian, any time you want to swap your professionally designed, developed and engineered OEM 99 spec HID headlights with sharp cut-off, well defined beam pattern and no light scatter with my HID retrofitted halogen purposed headlights with poor cut-off, lousy beam pattern and appalling light scatter just let me know.

That's going to be a bit different in go to your NA Z32 Chris! Good luck with the project, got my 50p ready for a ride. Something like this?

Nissan FAST gives GCZ32-57016? (last digit missing in photo) as build dates from March '99 through April '99.

OEM Halogen compared to OEM HID. Note size of HID projector lens.

I got one of those document wallets with my UK spec. Didn't have the "FAST track" fold out though.

2004 to be precise. Pop over when your are up and running.

150 ft.lb at 3500rpm - that explains everything Captain Slow!

About time too! Another Volvic moment perhaps Steve...

Happier days at JAE '09.

Snap! - See you there.

Firstly, where are you taking the timing gun trigger from? The black wire loop by the PTU harness is not a good point for many guns.

Yes! The garden had a number of brightly coloured animals including a red gorilla! Yes, see day 3.
