whats the differance
Econ turns the Aircon off, so its just running normal heating system. I run it in econ mode 99% of the time Rec, is recirculating, so it closes the external vents and just recirculates the same air. You should have that off really.

How do HID`s work in a UK Z with the sidelights...???
Only on some UK cars (probably certain years). Some have fitted them without modification and not had any problems, but you can disable it.....there is info on here somewhere for it....but I cant find it now, Im sure somebody will be along with it

What a Different HID's are...
Yeh, the legal aspect has discussed many times, but its never been an actual issue. This bit is relevent to cars in general, but not so much to the 300zx. When you fit HID lights to cars with regular headlights the beam pattern is scattered and looks terrible, with lots of glare. HID lights require the ellipsoid projector lights, that the 300zx has as standard. You many need to get the alightment checked after fitting but the beam pattern and output is far superior to that of regular headlights.

Speedo dial question
Yes, that would do the job. If you decide to change it later on then the best and simplest way will always be to fit a set of UK clocks.

Bit of bad news...
Yep, the U.S got recall for them but Nissan never bothered with Uk and Japan unfortunatly :rolleyes: Relocation will only delay the inevitable.

Richmond Leader Gear fitment
You need a gearbox specialist. I know that Ztech used to use a company near to them (swindon/newbury area) for leader gear installs....but that was years ago, not sure if the new owners can help, but worth asking.

Bit of bad news...
£20-£30 2nd hand, but there is always the risk of it happening again (I've gone through 3 or 4 PTU's in past zed's). or you could invest in the later series PTU (£120'ish) and not have to worry about it again.

Bit of bad news...
Bad fuel would cause at the very worst rough running, but more likely detonation. It would'nt cause car to cutout entirely. If it is PTU (sounds like it is ) then you need a new one, relocating wont fix the problem.

Slicktop roof trims?
Loving the new colour !!

I dont think the vents are any smaller than stock, possibly bigger.

My new prop makes a donk noise when you pull off?
Then his prop would'nt fit LOL. Should be able to get hold of a 2nd hand TT diff for a couple of hundred though.

Slicktop roof trims?

Slicktop roof trims?
Expensive items. Dread think of the price from Nissan UK, check with MJP. They are about £250 delivered for the pair from the states, but thats becuase shipping is so expensive as they are very long items.

Electrical gremlins
It goes from the battery negative terminal, and is then bolted in 3 or 4 places to the bulkhead before ending at one of the top gearbox bellhousing bolts. You can follow it from the engine bay down the back of the engine, and you should be able to reach down and feel if its bolted to the bellhousing. You;ll need to remove battery first.

My new prop makes a donk noise when you pull off?
If you had diff play previously, then I would expect a one piece to exaggerate the problem further.
-
My new prop makes a donk noise when you pull off?
No, the TT one piece prop uses the standard prop ends.
-
