Coil pack bolts and coil pack connector covers
I'm after OEM coil pack bolts in as good condition as possible as some of mine are looking a little tired. Nissan replaced them during production with brighter zinc finished bolts but I prefer the original look. I'm also after two of the small black plastic covers that sit on top of the coil pack connectors. I've arrowed both items in the photo. Small items I know, but would appreciate any help in sourcing them.

Possible meet?
Botley Hill Farmhouse, Warlingham. Very nice pub in the Surrey North Downs countryside, large carpark. The owner Nicole Joubert was more than happy for us to use the venue for a Club meeting. Suggested either Saturday am or Sunday am (depending on numbers). You would need to check with her again as I discussed the matter with her in January. http://www.botleyhill-farmhouse.co.uk/

Dies on cold idle, rough when warming up
Did you disconnect the o2 sensors to test? Here is a useful guide on boost leak location (or vacuum leak when off boost): http://www.thumper300zx.com/z32/boostleaks/boost_leak_guide.htm 5 psi is considered the safe maximum for pressurising intake system whilst testing.

You might find one layer is enough as there is not much of a gap between the trim and the duct.

Don't always give up on obsolete stock.
Do you mean nissangenuine.com? Then yes - Endon Services. It is worth checking both as although they are the same company the prices can vary for the same part.
