Best z32 year...
No reason why it shouldn't, but it may be worth checking whether you have the actuator wiring down the back of the engine.

Commuting in a Z
I used to Z to commute for about 5 years, doing about 8-12K per year. It was only when circumstances changed and my mileage went up to 20K per year that I bought a cheap diesel. It does save a lot though, double the mpg plus tires cost half as much and last 5 times longer etc

Low Rise Car Ramps
What you really need to do is make a metal replica of the wooden ones that (I think) John Dixon made up.

quick question x2
what year was the last year of manufacture of the z32, in japan - 1999, perhaps 2000 what year were they last sold from new in the uk - 1994, but there may have been some leftover in warehouses what year were they last sold from new in japan - 2000 will a z32 engine 2x2 fit both a manual or auto - yes

upgrading boost
See if you can get a ConZult check run, to make sure everything is 100% first.
-
where can i get a manual
Luke at the Z Centre also has owners manuals, and you will probably find that your local Nissan dealer can order one too.

350z brake conversion
You have to fit the discs and calipers at the same time. Smithy will have appropriate discs, MJP has some good ones too, or you could use genuine Nissan ones (if you feel rich).

Wish Me Luck
That's not a starter you fule ! ;)

firing on 5
You sure it's the injector and not the coil pack ? There will be people around here with spare standard injectors and it won't be hard to get a 2nd hand coilpack either, but to be honest it's more likley to be an electrical connection problem.

na chip
I'll socket anyones ECU for £30 plus return postage.

delimiter/power steering
Yes, this will happen if you've installed a delimiter that works by converting Km/h to mph. The power steering is speed sensitive and so what used to happen at 50 kmh, now happens at 50 mph etc. The 'proper' fix is to install a UK speedo head (or possibly modify a Jap one) and then change the chip in the ECU to remove the limiter (and gain some performance!).

350z alloy offset
The standard 350 wheels fit, presume 19"'s would do as well.
-
350z brake conversion
I used the 350Z| setup with Skyline wheels and it was no trouble at all. No spacers needed.
-
A bit pricey perhaps?
Looks like it's velour rather than the other stuff though, so going with the reg it's almost certainly a series II.
-
will these fit
I meant the size rather than the exact wheels, mine were off a Skyline too.
-
A few thanks due...
Now those are the sort of shiney bits that I like !
-
who has removed their space saver?
Interesting, I have Jap Series II and to the best of my knowledge the space saver diameter is the same (would be strange if it wasn't), but obviously it's much thinner.
-
who has removed their space saver?
I can just use the "Topless" plan, I still have my spacesaver in the boot.
-
look what i've done
It's not quite how I'd do it, needs some crossbrace or two long 'u' shaped brackets to stop the seat moving fore/aft.
