Split Turbo Oil Hose
Just for future referance, because its done now. You don't have to replace those kind of pipes with oem, as i say earlier some 8mm diameter water hose will do it. Just take an off cut to your local hydraulics/hose place and ask for some high quality hose the same Id as what you have. I replaced all my turbo coolant lines and bypassed my throttle coolant lines, with Goodyear hose for less than that one piece from Nissan.

Why!!!!
If you want customer service send a girl. My mrs needed a wing mirror, do her and her mate went to the scrap yard. Not only did they blokes there remove it off the car they fitted it and didn't even charge! If I had boobs I'd get free shit too.

Split Turbo Oil Hose
The two pipes labeled with yellow in the pic are the water feed and return. The oil feed is the one with the heat proof tube over it going into the top of the the turbo core.

Missfire on 2 cylinders
I seem to remember 4 plugs are fed by one part of the loom the other two another piece. Can't remember if its the front two are seperate. Your defiantly not getting any electrical signals to the injector or coil pack connectors?

Split Turbo Oil Hose
That's a water coolant hose for the tub. The oil is a hard line that comes in at the top. Loos like a brake line, the return is a large say 16mm diameter tube on the underside. Some good quality 8mm water hose will replace that fine and dandy.

egr question.
Yeah it's only the egr and water bypass that are much easier with the plenum off. Aiv etc come it really easy.

Letting jeff give it a health check is a great start mate.
-
egr question.
You can always cut the erg lines, bung up the hole in the manifold and isolate the vac line. Good news you got the plenum off though mate.

IMPUL rear bumper pic request!!!
You'd be better off speaking to an exhaust shop. I think a quad tip would work well with that bumper

Fancy some chrome bling
Pretty sure you've gotta triple plate Ali anyway, more to it. For pas pots etc though could be good.

The old Auto versus Manual debate
Or do you have too much torque for that box these days lol. Mine had about as much ability to transfer the power as a bowl of porridge towards the end.

The old Auto versus Manual debate
Having converted I can honestly say a z32 with an auto box is a z32 wasted. The autobox maks the car feel heavy, sloppy and removes confidence in handling. Going manual instantly improves your confidence and the cars response, it allows you to know the savagery it's capable of. Conversely though, the auto is smooth as glass. Even on snow I could pull away without drama. I would love an automatic daily, changing great in traffic gets tiresome. My auto did have a habit of changing down when the wheels were spinning which was a bit scared and not helpfull. In its finial days it would struggle to make up its mind which gear to select before finally struggling to put any power down with what I can only describe as clutch slip for want of a better word. Going manual turnt my car from a placid rocket into a hooligan fighter jet.
