FuzzyDropbear Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 G'day Laura, Welcome to the forums and congrats on buying a Z! Not sure about most of your problems, but there is a discussion on how to restore your dash yourself if you are willing to go to that effort. http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php?topic=1618.0 As for parts, you could always try your luck with a want to buy post in the "wanted" section of the classifieds, someone may have some spares, as long as you are prepared to pay for postage of items. Cheers, Rob Quote
620Z Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 G'day Laura, Great to have a fellow V8 Zed on the forum. Unfortunately I can't help you with the wiring problem. But if you have issues with drive train, diff, rear end, motor, exhaust, steering set up etc then I should be able to help. Good luck with it all. It's a big task to get the car up to scratch but well worth it when you do. Chhers Quote
George Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 two zeds and one of them has a V8. you're a rare bread. for your reference, i just rewired my car and it came to $1550. complete new loom (not a kit), relocated fuse box which was custom made with relays galore and some security stuff. welcome to the forums Quote
sco_aus Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 http://www.allzparts.com.au/Home%20Page.html I use Warren at all Z parts. He always sends the correct part, sends it fast and does it for a good price. Quote
warrenz Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 Hi I'll second that about AllZparts, best parts stock in Australia, but don't email him, ring him. Cheers (a different) Warren Quote
