Intercoolers
Correctly fitting ducts are an important (and often overlooked) part of getting the most out of larger than stock intercoolers. Air will follow the path of least resistance and it is important to direct (force) the air over as large a part of the intercooler as possible. This is particularly the case as the intercoolers sit in front of what is essentially a box with a NACA duct at the bottom as the only exist for the air after it has passed through the intercooler. I remember reading an article (which I now can't find) that the difference in cooling efficiency for intercoolers on a Z32 with and without full ducting was in the order of 30%. I used Stillen ducts for the HKS intercoolers which covered the entire face. I also needed to modify the indicator housings to clear the ducting (the rear bulb holder). The picture shows a full face Stillen duct and intercoolers.

Putting your name down for one area dosen't preclude you from participating the other area.

If you can use one of the replacements shown above, you will find it very useful to transfer the offset filler over (arrowed). Assuming it will fit the new CMC it will give you much more space to get the cap off when filling. Things are tight in that area. Also, I'm not clear what the "bottom seal" means. Is fluid leaking from the union (arrowed) with the flex pipe and the CMC or leaking from the back of the CMC, seen from inside the car?

Headlight recommendations
Have you tried cleaning the optics? It makes a big difference even with Halogen bulbs. Not mine, but you get the drift...

I’ll mirror Joel’s overt recommendation. I've always used PlusGas.

Which make?

Yes, if nothing else than it shows NI/Ireland which will make Gary happy. Just needs the new region names overlaid on it.

Can mailchimp also be used for other full membership email shots like COTY and NEC polls for example?

No I hadn't, it wasn't that obvious (at least to me)! Perhaps the O/P could be amended?
