Over heating issue?
Afaik, the aux fan is triggered in a few scenarios. Firstly in an ECU triggered situation where it's "overheating" 105 I think. Or it comes on in conjunction with the aircon it comes on when you drop into neutral.

Move over 300zx I want one of these!!!!
Now that's a shortie.

Evo Brembos
Assembly wise they are very simple. The pistons may cost a few quid though. It depends how cheap you have been offered them. The pistons apparently very rarely fail, it's just the seals. Mine cost £200 for the pair fully assembled but In used condition.

What do you weigh?
I need to weigh mine. I recon it weighs less than that lol. But I was was expecting yours to be heavier with the ice etc. Closer to 1700kgs.

boos leak check damage something
Is that with the PCV system deleted? FSM recommends no more than 5PSI as you no doubt are aware, due to the PCV system allowing the rockers etc to become pressurised, popping the cam oil seals out at the front is apprently quite common when too much pressure is applied.

Rear cam cover plugs potentially, if it's high up. You will just have to investigate.

Sorry si I'm still playing catch up ATM. Three weeks off work has taken it's toll. I'm still sure we can rustle up more than 11.

few questions
Type 300zx electric fan conversion into google, you will get loads of results. Do your research and it will be fine. The kit from Zcentre isn't big enough as said, the volvo and ford fans are virtually the same, although that's well known now so find either is becoming harder. I did start looking into it but decided I had more important things to sort. The stock system works very well, when it's working. That means viscous, rad and shroud. Too many bin the shroud and get poor cooling or have a bum viscous.

Brake Discs & Pads
Have a look at ebay, brembo discs and pads available for the zed for very reasonable money. OEM brake pads, probably not worth the premium. You wouldn't use the oem spec tyre if you could find it, these kind of things have cone on a long way in the past 25 years. I actually had some cheap pads from camberly auto factors in mine since I brought it. I needed new pads for it's first mot and my brakes have always been good so I had no reason to change them. Mintex are quite popular i believe.

Thanks for keeping up with this guys. I've been rather busy getting married and being on honneymoon but I'm back on the swing now. Il update all the lists and get back to those with specific requirements. Thanks again for your patience.

Looking for a new Zed ?????
I know that....just that going rate for them in the uk due to desirability and low amount, it may well be cheaper to import a second hand 99 bumper from japan.

didnt expect this
That is dog shit.

What are these 2 connectors for?
Iirc pressure release valve, vents pressure from the fuel tank or something.

soft brake pedal after bleeding
What was the solution here in the end?

Temporary Disposal plastic car cover for the Z
That's ideal for bodywork! Just cut out the bit you want and crack on without fear of overspray.
-
What are these 2 connectors for?
I expect you will find another one or possible two on the other side. The other Aiv and possibly the PRV most people don't remove the PRV though.
-
What are these 2 connectors for?
Egr and Aiv solenoid connections I expect.

Eeekkk! Does this not affect the rigidity and overall structural strength.

My new daily drive, 324bhp 2 seater na zed...
Nicely done. I really like these and would have one tomorrow. The 350 doesn't interest me, it's a bit bland really but there's something quite eye catching about the z34. I couldn't justify having something that's cost me that much as a toy. With a mortgage, a new wife and hopefully kids on the horizon over the next few years it would be insanity. :( you enjoy it mate.

Might be easier from above with the acordion pipe out the way? It's tight in there though.

My condololences to all British victims in Tunisia....
It's a very seperate topic. However I agree that there is too much unskilled labour migration. It's fantastic that we are able offer asylum to those that genuinely need it. We do NEED skilled migrants though to provide doctors etc that we simply have a shortage of. It's not that we need to stop imaragation it's that we need to control it better to get the right people not just all comers.

You do realise that it wasn't that long ago that in the grand scheme of things man left Africa and colonised the world right? That genetically it's virtually impossible to tell wether your French, English, German etc because the vast majourity is all the same. You can hide under a rock all you like but unfortunately someone somewhen will want what you've got and come and bother you, that's life. If we all stayed in our countries all the time, it would just decent into tribal warfare instead. The only thing that stops infighting is a bigger issue. You want world peace pray for aliens, seriously, pray for aliens then they will play nice quick enough.
