This is a photo from: http://s95014253.onlinehome.us/63104/6901.html Not very clear, but it does exist! You can get to inspect and identify the CC connections by removing the wheel and wheel arch liner. The removal guide has pics which should help.

Yes, plus the extra extra purge line which runs from the CC to the intake pipe near the air filter. The n/s throttle connection runs to the CC purge control valve. If is not connected the CC will not purge properly as the manifold vacuum increases. "the other pipe under under the ic isn't connected to anything" what does it connect to on the CC? It may be the second purge line. Connection types are marked on the CC.

A properly set up and maintained HICAS system works just fine for me and I'm happy to leave it in place. To be honest I don't notice it operating which is probably as Nissan intended when developing the Z32 over 25 years ago. Today a number of very high performance cars including the Ferrari F12tdf, Lamborghini Centenario LP 770-4 and Porsche 911 GT3 all have rear wheel steering which operate on the same principles as the HICAS system. I would have thought those manufacturers must see a benefit to have included the system for their customer's driving experience.

That will be the CC constant purge orifice "leaking" under vacuum conditions (as it should). The evap emission control system is shown below and shows the basic setup (turbo models have an extra purge line which runs from the CC to the intake pipe near the air filter. I've also attached the relevant page from the FSM which describes the CC fuel vapour purging process: efec-190.pdf

Most tyre manufacturers publish the full specifications including the overall diameter for each of the tyres they make. The overall diameter is a function of the tyre size, width and aspect ratio. So for example, if you take a look at the specifications published by Toyo tyres for thier Proxes T1 Sport you can see the dimensions we are interested in for each tyre: http://www.toyo.co.uk/tire/pattern/proxes-t1-sport (click on "Specifications" tab to get table) The idea when selecting tyres is to keep the F&R tyres overall diameters as close as possible and in turn close to the original OEM tyres overall diameter. Toyo also publish the approved rim width for each tyre size with the optimum size highlighted.

Yes, if it is a Carbing.

Yes they are (were) stock 6x4s. You will have had a OEM rear amp which powered the rear speakers. The OEM head unit in this setup unit had built in front channel amps and line level outputs to the rear amp. I've attached the wiring diagram for you so you can see what is going on and trace the wires. Your radio brackets should look like this: If you don't get the little screws in the photo with your eBay brackets then I have a set of four you can have which fit the radio and cassette unit/cubby hole to the brackets. The brackets are fitted to the car with standard self tapping 4mm screws into the captive nuts which should still be in the dash. EL-93.pdf

Are your rear speaker brackets metal ones with oval shaped speaker mounting holes?

It's the auxiliary engine bay air exhaust vent, opens when the engine is running too hot. They often fail and end up permanently open.

If I may be so bold...

Looks like he is aiming for less the $200: http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/general/view/2607058/Thanks-all-for-the-compliments-answers-to-questions-inside.html

You're right, what a lovely view!

Morning Stephen! Have you seen this? http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/technical/view/1001668/Some-answers.html

I bought a glass scratch removing kit from this company: http://www.glasspolishshop.com Although I didn't use it on car glass, this "how to" video shows the process which would be similar to removing scratches from car glass:

Just to add to that Pilkington are owned by Nippon Sheet Glass Co in Japan - so not to far from home.

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to the Club James! Hopefully you will be able to attend the Beaulieu "Simply Japanese" show as the new owner.

They look even more full with a Boost gauge...

How many bulbs have you got in your "ferrari" brake lights setup? Stock is 2 bulbs per side (4 in total of 21W each) so the load module will generate a fault on less than that load.

Have you fitted the whiteline rear subframe bushes, if so any advice/feedback for us?

Best wishes on your Birthday Simon!
