The most expensive area of rust to repair is inside the rear sill cavity where the targa drain tube exits. This tube often comes adrift, draining the water into the sill; or the sill drain is mistaken for a jacking point and is crushed to the point where any condensation or moisture build up gets trapped in the sill. When this rust rears it’s head on the outside it’s usually an absolute mess inside and can be costly to repair properly. If I was Z shopping now, I would be kindly asking the seller to allow access to that area which is a simple procedure but does involve tools. General areas of rust will be more visible in a basic look round with a decent torch and a mirror so have a good look underneath, around the front suspension turrets and behind the rear wheels at the bottom of the bumper.

Coming together nicely, Nick. ?

Hopefully there’s enough meat left on them to give them another machining session, but I’d personally much rather use a well recommended head specialist to overhaul the ones you have rather than take a punt on an eBay item. The 48p heads are supposed to be an improved design over the 40p so you may aswell take advantage of that if you can and finding used 48p heads will be a challenge! I’m with Nick, £500 for a fit and forget top end is a decent price on the grand scheme of things!

Yeah, if he’s changing to 40p he’ll need an early lower intake too right?

Are yours currently 40p or 48p?

Welcome back to the fold dude, we’ve missed you ?

Happy Birthday Andrew ? Hope you’re well.

Very nice choice Sire ?

I hope they’re T7R2P ?

Wow ? What wheels have you gone for Andy!

Great work ?

I get funny looks when the neighbours see me blow drying my cars!

Fantastic Z ??

Welcome to the club Fella.

The hard radiator lower pipe was designed due to a few reports of the pipe collapsing under vacuum “upstream” from the water pump. I’m not sure how common this phenomenon actually is but I fitted the Z1 hard pipe kit in black with black sleeves. It can be secured in the same way as the stock hose.
