A good news story
Takes BIG cahonas to fly a vintage single engine piston aircraft across LARGE expanses of wilderness and water... What an adventure!

For car parts you will be charged duty (4.5%) on the declared value of the goods and then VAT (20%) on the goods, the shipping and duty combined. Plus a courier handing admin fee for customs clearance (usually £12 to £20 depending on the courier).

Powder coat OEM colour
Take care with the blasting as I have a spare which was carefully sandblasted but still blew small holes in some of the cooling fins.

Powder coat OEM colour
Not necessarily - Nissan added additional coolers for Euro spec cars after high speed testing on German autobahns. In the case of the PS system the mechanical pump is designed to provide full flow at, or very close to, engine idle speed (needed for example with low engine revs and parking). As engine revs increase and are maintained (high speed driving) more and more fluid is being pumped around the (open spool) system. As such, the oil heats rapidly, and can without additional cooling overheat and cavitate resulting in PS performance degredation and/or failure. Granted that for most everyday driving the cooler is probably unnecessary, but Nissan would have been conservative for their specifications for the European market. If you track/race your car adequate PS cooling is something to bear in mind. Here is a post on TT.net with folks experiencing PS failures through overheating when using their cars on the track: http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/general/view/2576746/Power-steering-pump-issue-after-track-session.html

It wasn't that long ago that a Z32 would be condemned for that amount of corrosion. Lovely to see it being restored!

View my Z Profile link feature
Just set up my 'View my Z Profile' link. If you click on mine (look for any post I've made) you can see how I've used the Album description to fill out the details of my car and the modifications I've made. The facility makes it easy for readers to quickly see the full details of a member's car when reading one of their posts and responding.

New Website - Thoughts and Comments
OK, that's where I first noticed the phenomenon. I posted a reply last thing yesterday to a sub question and came back on to find it had disappeared, only for it to have moved because of the "sort by votes". As these threads are usually built up of conversational responses I think it would be preferable to retain their cronological order by default. You can see the effect in this thread by toggling between the two ordering rules:

New Website - Thoughts and Comments
I know that, but how do I set it so that ALL the threads I view automatically display in cronological order?

New Website - Thoughts and Comments
How do I set the thread display preference from Sort by Votes to Sort by Date for ALL the threads I view?

Can you measure the square hole it fits?- Upgrading injectors
Yes, unless you have the later lower plenum which will match your later fuel rails, go with the early fuel rails and an adapater kit. It will be less work to install. - Looking for cheap alternative
