Yeah... I'd ask the same for my set. Haha page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/c669598163

Keep in mind the technology/feature of UV cut glass found on late model Z32's was only placed/used on the door glass. I spent a lot of time sorting through all the part numbers and Japanese literature to come to a conclusion on the different glass options. I'd also like to state that while there is blue glass tint for the Z32...starting in 1995 all JDM and Euro spec cars got green tint glass. USDM got green tint in 1996. The green tint can sometimes appear as blue or clear depending on lighting conditions. Good info this at my blog: https://z32enjoytheride.wordpress.com/2015/06/19/post-41-9900-spec-uv-insulated-cut-glass/

Hello all, I have a production number list from Nissan that was produced on 01/97. However, I'm not certain whether it includes both LHD and RHD euro Z32's. The chassis numbers don't determine whether the car is LHD or RHD. I Think it may but I could use some help determining this. The code for steering side is within the model code, which doesn't have any bearing on production numbers with this list. Would a few of you be willing to send me their Chassis numbers? I could use a few numbers from between 90-94, having a 94 would be helpful as well and easy as there were only a few made in early 94 before Nissan stopped production for the UK. Once I can determine exactly what this list shows I'll generate a pdf copy that is easy to read and make available so we know what the production numbers look like. Andrew G, I recall you may have a UK spec 94, could you help me out? For those of you with JDM Z32's I've already generated their production number list. You can find it here on my website. https://z32enjoytheride.wordpress.com/jdm-production-number-list/

Hello, I hoping someone who may have torn leather seats from a UK spec Z32 may be willing to remove the heated seat elements from the seats, as I'd like to purchase them. There are four total, two in each seat. I would need all the wiring connectors still attached to the elements and also a pigtail harness from the body side that the element harness plugs into.

Wow, that's the highest I've ever seen those go, 179,000 yen. Previous highest was around 13,000 yen. hmm...wonder if I should sell, my spare set. lol.

What is odd about the photos is the fact they show t-top shades on them. The mirror coat tops did not come with shades, nor did they come with the tabs for mounting the shades. So not sure if the shades are just laying on top or if someone glued a set of mounting tabs on. The carbon fiber bezel around the handle is aftermarket.

Nope it was a feature of two specific trims starting with the Limited S. And it's not just a tinted film. If it were film you'd see the black painted trim on the glass. More on them here at my blog. https://z32enjoytheride.wordpress.com/2016/02/19/post-44-jdm-mirror-coat-t-top-glass/

Yep, replica or sorts. It has a mix mash of SMZ parts and Stillen GTZ (another stillen specialty model from the early 90's). Judging from the plenum it is also a later 96+ model. Some time ago a few vendors in Japan sold SMZ parts...even stuff like the floor mats, center console cover, shifter etc. So several replica/copies are found in Japan. Largely the SMZ program (like many custom Z programs) failed to generate a lot of sales. It's possible Stillen had extra parts remaining that would never be used and were sold in Japan to get rid of them. The Australian Z32 by Stillen isn't technically an SMZ. It was simply a 25th anniversary edition model by Steve Millen. The Australian market never used the term/model SMZ. I've tracked a lot of the SMZ's for many years now. Some authentic models are located in Japan and Korea due to person moves by their owners.

Here is what the optional marble center bezel looks like. It has more of a dotted pattern to it and is not as glossy as the black wood. From the optional parts brochure. A close up: Some of the sellers on the auctions simply don't know which is which. There are also two versions of the Version R carbon Fiber bezels, an early 97-98 and the 99-00.

That's not the marble look finish. The marble is different and was only optional on the center bezel. This is what Nissan called their black wood trim, only found on 99/00 "300zx" trim models.

Those are not marble. Those are the standard black wood accent trim found on the "300zx" trim. This model trim was considered the most luxurious trim package for the 99/00 models. The black wood was used on the center bezel and the window switch bezels. There was a marble/stone center bezel that was optional. I'd have to got back and look at my brochures but this piece may have been discontinued by the time the 99/00 models were released.

That for sure is not a red/gold. The photo of my emblems Andrew posted from my blog shows authentic pieces and their corresponding part numbers. The sills are also not authentic.

I certainly will. Thank you.
