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

Did that not remove the paint as well?

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.

What did you do to your zed today?
That's great news! I don't think your car is in my UK specs database. If you PM the VIN I will add it.

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?

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.- Classic Motor Show NEC - November 2019

I see that Z1 have two TT lightweight flywheels - a MK1 and Mk2 version. Which one did you go for?- Auto to manual conversion
Is the problem here that the ring gear is machined into the flyweel rather than the seperate Nissan ring gear that say RPS use?- Upgrading injectors
You will need an adapter kit to mount the later (pintleless) injectors. JWT make the lowest profile C clamps which make it easier to remove/replace injectors once the upper manifold is in place. You can get the kit from US suppliers, eg: https://www.specialtyz.com/300zx/jwt-injector-adapter-kit.html- Auto to manual conversion
As the 06046 is sold as an OEM replacement clutch which will therefore work with a stock flywheel I can't see why it won't work with an aftermarket TT flywheel (lightweight or otherwise) that is machined to the same dimensional specifications as the stock TT flywheel. Provided both clutch and flywheel have been properly balanced seperately then they should work fine together.- Auto to manual conversion
Is this the model you bought (06046)? https://shop.exedyusa.com/exedy-oem/exedy-oem-replacement-clutch-kit/06046/i-125789.aspx- Auto to manual conversion
Why? what reason was given for needing a complete clutch and flywheel?- Antifreeze
Irrespective of the colour make sure the container states the antifreeze is Ethylene glycol (and not the Organic Acid Technology - OAT variety). The two types do not mix together and OAT should not be used in older engines which can be damaged by OAT (eg seals and gaskets). - Looking for cheap alternative
