Congratulations!

Quite possibly, back in her heyday:

Looks like the wide arch that used to belong to Buckaroo Banzai aka Croeso is back up for sale. http://r.ebay.com/utIhci

Out of curiosity, where are you looking to install the bottle?

Enjoy...

Don't forget the difference in torques between the NA and TT - "Torque gets you off the line, HP gets you over the line" For stock MT cars: 222bhp at 6,400rpm vs 280PS at 6,400 (figures for UK/Euro TT cars, 1PS = 0.98bhp) 198lf/ft at 4,800rpm vs 275lb/ft at 3,600 So you get a big increase in torques in TTs over NAs and peak torques arrives 1,200rpm sooner.

I'm well thanks. Yes, all the machining is done and the calipers just need to be painted and the whole lot fitted. I'll do that over the winter. The hub you gave me was invaluable for the project. BTW, I have a Conzult, so when you are ready we can plug it in and see that all is well with your new cars electronics.

Terry, it will look great! The Audi folks are going nuts over it. Look forwards to seeing it in the metal.

Personally, I would only be interested in owning a TT, for me that's the model variant that defines the Z32. See if you can find someone who has an NA to let you drive it, if only to get that out of your system! As I said before, just bide your time, the right one will come along for you, particularly with your 5k budget available. BTW, it would help if you subscribed, if only so that members can PM you when good cars come up for sale. You will get an email notification that you have a PM, so you can respond quicker.

I remember seeing them at the Hammersmith Odeon years ago. Got in on a free ticket I was given, but arrived late and watched the concert standing up at the back. They played LOUD! There was row upon row of seated fans headbanging all the way through the set - just brilliant! Have a great time Mike.

Steve, best wishes on your birthday and throughout the coming year. Enjoy your day and keep smiling! -Andrew

That EGI label/position is for a relay.

Haha!

When you say "engine fuse box", where is it located - inside the car, down by the pedals or by the brake servo?

I can't remember, but I thought the UK tinted lenses were different from the ones I posted above (not ribbed?). --edit-- just seen your post, they are.

The ones I posted above have both side and turn bulbs.

How much are you asking for the car? Your listing on the Z Club could say a figure.

Done a bit of digging and that one may be sold: http://www.kgfclassiccars.co.uk/details.php?cid=221 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjWdqCM9BK0 (red led below centre air vents at 2:46 appears in autotrader pics) Might be worth contacting KGF as they also sold another UK car: http://www.kgfclassiccars.co.uk/details.php?cid=248 To see if they could source one for you.

Oh a UK one! That one is not far from me (check dealers website).

It would make me *a lot* more cautious. Some of them are up to 24 years old, so could have got through that many owners. History and servicing records would be key. I would want to know that the car had been looked after and money spent on it as needed, rather than ragged and then passed on.

How about this one: http://zclub.net/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=4968&title=nissan-300zx-z32-2-2&cat=1

Yes, just bide your time and keep looking, don't rush. There are good ones out there, and in the club that come up for sale. Your trade should help keep you from making a poor choice. Autos can be converted to manuals successfully, so don't discount a sound one. What's your budget?

There is not much meat in that brace, particularly in the folded part above the bolt.
