The adaptor kit certainly looks the business Joel.

You mean testpipes? They are all 2.5" downpipes (except the latest "expansion" type which are 3"): http://s95014253.onlinehome.us/63104/133158.html

I have a pair of Specialty Z 5-bolt Super Split Down Pipes. I'll take pictures and measurements for you

Welcome to the Club Joao! If there are parts you are looking for you can post a "Wanted" in the "Zed related - Parts" section.

If you order AshSpec 2.5" IC piping from SZ you can specify the TBs you want to use: http://specialtyz.com/shop/300zx/ash-2-5-smic-piping.html

As far as I am aware the 62mm TBs are the only (new) types available now: http://specialtyz.com/shop/robz-62mm-throttle-bodies.html https://conceptzperformance.com/robz-billet-aluminum-62mm-upgraded-throttle-body-set-nissan-300zx-90-96-z32-rz-16118-xx-kt_p_19290.php Robert Bastain in the US provided a service to get stock TBs enlarged to 54mm. I'm not sure if he still does, but contact details are included: http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/classified/view/169467/CNCd-54mm-throttle-bodies-and-more.html

Are these still available?

Even better!

Best wishes in your Birthday Ian!

You will require a remap for which you can get a custom map chip (or Nistune file) from SpecialityZ: http://specialtyz.com/shop/300zx/sz-ecu-chips.html For fine tuning you can fit a Nistune type 2 board and get yourself along to someone like Greg@Protuner for a rolling road setup: https://protuner.co.uk/ The power/torque outputs for the setup I referred to above are in the charts Greg@SZ published in the post.

Dave, from Greg Dupree@SpecialityZ comes this advice on what can be achieved when retaining stock turbos and adding on "breather" parts: "I am here to tell you that IN MY OPINION it would be better to upgrade your intercoolers and pipes rather than upgrade your turbos if your not going to do both" Full post which includes what can be achieved with stock turbos (and stock engine) which is relevant info for you: "And last we will add a stock turbo, stock engine car to the chart that has 2.5" intercooler pipes, 2.5" Ash intercoolers, full 3 inch Exhaust, MS Manifolds, Selin dual intake, 740cc injectors" http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/general/view/2415470/A-little-info-about-turbos-and-pipes-DYNO-CHARTS.html

Ahh, when one of our Goldens has to wear one they are more like this:

Best wishes on your Birthday Mike!

Is that closed or open cell foam? The difference between the two types: During manufacture the foams are generated by forming gas bubbles in a liquid base which then begins to set over a short period of time, and the properties of the liquid and gas determines the final foam structure. Closed cell foam – the bubbles are completely encompassed within the liquid and when it sets, the gases are entirely fixed within each individual bubble, creating a structure that is impervious. Open cell foam – the bubbles burst during the foaming process to create and interconnection cellular network. This gives rise to softer and breathable foams (as used in air filters).

My thoughts about AMS are unprintable Dave.

Those are an old design (V1 if you will). If you are sticking with 2.5" diameter exhaust and standard turbos then these are the next generation (v2 super split): https://conceptzperformance.com/labree-super-split-aluminized-divorced-flange-downpipes-4-bolt-2.5-nissan-300zx-90-96-z32-14449-vt104_p_1159.php and in stainless steel: https://conceptzperformance.com/labree-super-split-stainless-steel-divorced-flange-downpipes-4-bolt-2.5-nissan-300zx-twin-turbo-tt-90-96-z32-14449-vt104ss_p_1161.php I have the 5 bolt version in aluminised steel which I will use with JWT 530BB turbos.

I know you are nearer the equator than I am, but that photo is ridiculous! Great news Howard.

Pull your finger out, we want to see her fully dressed!

You can apply for a replacement V5C using a V62. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/application-for-a-vehicle-registration-certificate

It's in the TT.net link Nick.

This strut replacement info may help: http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/main/view/842930/Replacing-worn-Hatch-Sturts-using-the-McMaster-kit.html and (search "9416k22"): https://www.mcmaster.com/#gas-springs/=17wmq7n

You have to ask yourself the question that if the function of this weight was simply a static counter balance why did Nissan go to the trouble and cost of suspending the weight on elasticated rubber supports?

W210s rust badly. This would be my favourite high speed dog transporter:

All coming along very nicely indeed!
