Welcome to the Club! MOT history for the car: J306 RTT Vehicle MOT History - GOV.pdf From the photos: Evidence of rust on top of front suspension struts by wings Car has had a respray - looks to be missing stone chip finish on sills, maybe repairs to sills.

Why have you deleted a working FPCU?

If you are...

You sure you are not missing the OEM trims (arrowed). And yes I do have a KarumaZ rear spoiler ('89 spec) spare. It will require work to make it fit properly, but has the best surface finish (for a fibreglass replica).

Here you go...

Pintle caps are designed to reduce the effects of heat soak baking any fuel residues onto the pintle tips which can occour after engine shut down (heat from cylinders with open intake valves can rise into the injector area). Over time a buildup of residue can lead to poor injector performance.

Engines which *may* be affected with "soft" valves are: TT engine serial numbers up to VG30-619550 and manufactured prior to 11th December '89 NA engine serial numbers up to VG30-777599 and manufactured prior 22nd June '90.

One that has been looked after and cherished irrespective of age.

Best wishes on your Birthday Richard!

Welcome back Russ - glad to read that you haven't lost the faith!

Thanks for sharing your photos.

Item (4) "Buzzer dock lock unlocking and locking operation confirmation sound and half doors alarm buzzer attached to driver's seat, passenger's seat door inner panel"

Got a part number on it?

Great turnout for a winter's day! Well done. Don't forget to wash off all the salt.

Best wishes on your Birthday James!

Bought one of these last year (£59 from Nissan). They fit the OEM battery sleeve perfectly.

Agreed - stainless steel bolts are usually around Grade 2 (ebay junk qty), and in nearly all cases, much less than Grade 5. They should not be used in any application that requires hardened steel - Grade 5 or Grade 8, or above.

Why do you think that raising the fuel pressure increases the boost?

This:

In case you don't have this from the FSM: ef&ec 76-77.pdf

A full Nissan history? How many Nissan dealers are still around who even know what a 300ZX is, let alone know how to correctly service one? To be fair an F40 is in a rather different space to the 300ZX, and if I was paying F40 money, then yes I would be suspicious of missed official servicing!

I don't have access to the test centre information Gary. Maybe someone in the trade can? As to the http://www.gov.uk/check-mot-history they state "You can only get test results from 2005 onwards for tests done in England, Scotland or Wales".

Thanks for making the time to represent the Club Gary.

Based on the registration being J235 DYL then the car's MOT history is shown below. No MOT history since June '07 (untaxed since Feb '07) So looks like 2nd owner put 8K miles on in first year of ownership and then kept the car off the roads.
