Furthest Traveled for the Cheapest Part !!
I did a 620 mile round trip to Brian's house once, but there's more to that that it reads so that's a little misleading.

General Election Called for 8th June

Strange CAS Behaviour
Are you sure the CAS is at fault? Your base fault is "No Spark" correct? If so follow the routing back from the coils. I had a similar issue and it was the 4 pin connection on the PTU. Not saying this is the case but you know the CAS works manually so try not to fixate there and have think about other parts of the chain.

Those are stock 370cc phase one injectors I'm afraid.

1990 twin turbo manual
Looking at the pictures, your indeed correct. That is not a HKS intercooler, it's a universal front mount. Likely Chinese part like this; http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/TWIN-TURBO-ALUMINIUM-FMIC-FRONT-MOUNT-INTERCOOLER-FOR-NISSAN-300ZX-SKYLINE-GTR-/150808701775?hash=item231ce62b4f%3Ag%3AD6QAAOSw2xRYkzfa&_trkparms=pageci%253A91a88a3b-235a-11e7-a4e7-74dbd180884e%257Cparentrq%253A7b81cb9b15b0a60cd80f55d1fff14fd0%257Ciid%253A6 I'm not saying that's a problem but it's certainly not the high end part you were told. Did we not establish a while back that this isn't a genuine veilside car but simply a veilside kitted car? I think there's some very liberal truth...

Does anybody have one of these Z brochures?
Shouldn't this thread title be: "Does anybody have one of Zee's brochures" ;)

1990 twin turbo manual
Stock SMIC configuration (with a bigger cooler); Universal FMIC as you had; HKS style; TDM works; It might seem like not much but when you consider how much of an improvement you make increasing your piping diameter, adding more restrictions and length is a bad choice...up to you what you want to do at the end of day.

Red Z project.
What makes you think they have failed? I notice your engined failed? Who rebuilt them? You may find if itsboil starvation they refuse your warranty btw.

1990 twin turbo manual
Fair enough, if that's all you wanted though you could of just unplugged the MAF and driven it forward and back without that bodge pipe. Just an FYI unless your sold on the looks of the front mount id retain the SMIC location. The front mount most commonly used (which isn't Z32 specific) removed the cross over design of the system, increases intercooler pipe length, whilst also increasing under bonnet tempretures. All of which are undesirable. Unless you spend big bucks on a TDM works front cooler which allows shortening of the lines and an efficient core a front mount is often a poorer choice than SMIC on these cars.

If your interested I've got a pair of stock intercoolers you can have for £20 plus postage, do away with all that.

If you're having rust problems I feel bad for you son, I got a UK Zed
With a car that's prone to rust it's really good to see some people getting stuck in. In reality virtually all these cars will suffer from tin worm eventually and it's only the progression of the owners and their willingness/capability to repair that will keep them from the scrap. I'm fully aware at some stage il need to get serious on the chassis on mine, currently it's ok but it's only a matter of time.

Project X 1989 SWB NA Manual TTop.
It's going to be different you've gone from a lazy auto to a manual with shorter gears. You wait till you put a turbo lump in there.

At the risk of sounding like an old fart...
The trouble is "pop music" has become a genre rather than simply popular music as it once was. The chart is created by complex algorithms, gone are the days where it was simply about single sales as no one buys singles anymore.

Rust inside the rear arch & brake pipes.
Keep at it mate your getting there. That floor pan shot makes me want to pull the carpet up.

Pastures new
Pretty sure they toyed with fitting one, along with a mid engine and 4wd format. I think the V6 was used to allow the bonnet height to remain as per the design. There were quite a few concepts before they settled on the Z32 that created the wacky Mid4 and gave the R32 its HICAS and 4wd system.

Indicators on one side only??
There's a bell ringing in my head on this, someone else has had this recently I'm sure.

I don't know anyone who likes grimshaw. He's so annoying and I don't feel he has any talent. Apparently the average Radio 1 listener is 35 now up from 32 last year, I dunno who these people are but then do milenials even listen to Radio.
