As many as we need. As said above there isn't a definitive allocation as it's still 6 months away.

JAPFEST Silverstone - 4th Sept 2021
How do you mean? As we only announced this today I don't have a clue how many 300s plan on being there on the stand. Currently there's almost 40 x Z33s on the stand. As it is 6 months away the stand size can be increased as numbers dictate.

1995 Silver Series IV Slicktop Version S - Taking To Another Level
I have a heap of images saved of exhausts showing what I think is a perfect fitment position (identical to where you are placing yours) ready to show AAS exhausts later in the year when it goes to them for a custom set up. Liking the shape of yours, bit like the B&B ones. I'll be going round double twins I think.

JDM LWB front anti roll bar size
What diameter is the front OEM Sway bar on a JDM LWB? I'm away from home so can't measure it to buy the correct bushes. I thought 26.5mm, but I've read various conflicting information.

1995 Silver Series IV Slicktop Version S - Taking To Another Level
KCA336 give 0.5° adjustment +/-. I wonder if the additional bit offers more.

1995 Silver Series IV Slicktop Version S - Taking To Another Level
The OEM fucas with adjustable whiteline bushes is the way I'm going. Just finishing up painting the arms and waiting on KCA336 being delivered. Can you clarify something for me though - I though only the KCA336 kit would be needed? What's the reason for the KCA348 kit too?

Who took their Zed out today....?
There are bits of my Zed on the boat and we went for a trip to Montrose and back to berth a ship. Does that count?

1998 LWB NA - the purple project
Funny you should mention a car port.... I've got a full set of plans for it drawn up! Can't start it until the car has wheels again though. Hopefully when lockdown etc will be done my usual partner in crime from work will be able to come down and give me a hand building it.

1998 LWB NA - the purple project
Significant lack of updates due to the weather, lockdown, and homeschooling. Whilst things have been quiet I've been collecting parts. Order from CZP on the way (kind of, they're still waiting on a part from Nissan) - new scuttles, various brackets, arb bushes, front drop links, oem screws and nuts. Had a pair of OEM front upper control arms delivered from ebay. Going to clean them up when I'm back on the boat and fit a Whiteline adjustable camber Bush set. Refurbed OEM steering pump rcvd and ready to go on when I get the 120k service done later in the year. Once the weather improves I'll finish dealing with the underside surface rust above the subframe. Then put the rear back together. Overhaul the front suspension. Send it off for sill and rad support work. Then alignment and hopefully a clean MOT. Seems like a long way away at the moment though!

300ZX TT - A18GCK
This might be an alternative supplier for your back end decals https://blasterzgarage.com/products/90-93-rear-spoiler-decal-set?variant=32631522197635 Not sure how the price compares to Z1. And these https://zspecdesign.com/zspec-factory-style-cowl-scuttle-panel-plastic-clip-set-fits-90-96-300zx for the scuttle/cowl securing. Although I think Z1 sell Zspec ones too. I know CZP sell them.

MOT test updated re HID retrofitted headlamps
At a guess, seeing a ballast cable tied to frame would be a giveaway lol. But if done properly - ballast is fitted beneath the headlight as per the 99 spec OEM units, wiring as neat and as OEM looking as possible then you'd probably get away with it. The problem comes if he says "you'll fail with HIDs" "But they're 99 spec OEM units, honest Guv" And then he does a 30 second Google image search and instantly spots your lack of inner light shell housing. For the 5 mins it takes to change between HIDs and H3c I think I'll just keep a pair of bulbs in the glove box. Not that mine is going to be MOT ready anytime soon!

1989 300zx Rear quarter rust repair panels
If you strip out the rear seats, remove the trim, remove the seat belt roll mechanism from the shell (assuming yours isn't in the door) there's a big hole you can get a boroscope down into the different inner sill sections. I strongly recommend wearing gloves when doing this. The back of my hand got shredded by the sharp punch cut sheet steel edges of the hole. Luke won't take pre orders for the sills. Just need to be patient for them coming back on the website.

1989 300zx Rear quarter rust repair panels
The guy who makes them for Luke can only make them when not in lockdown. So it'll be a few months at least before any are in stock. It's not a difficult piece for a good fabricator to replicate.

Sourcing 99 spec rear lights
Unsure why this calculator hasn't added the 4.5% import on. I took a guess at $50 shipping. The 4.5% duty is paid on cost of goods plus shipping cost combined. Sometimes US parcels dodge customs, but that's getting rare.
