Expensive again when you add the 20% VAT tax Phil

You will find that it is pretty congested under the dash Also looking a your photo where the relays are near the strut tower there should be an original cover bracket that goes over the original relays that where there (ie v/regulator,aircon and mounting of the fuselink system),if your regulator was been removed your alternator has probably been upgraded making the reg redundant

Hi Does the car have an Electric Fan /thermostat switch mounted to radiator and also air horns as my had those initially installed by PO Cheers Phil

Just a note If anybody is thinking of installing the amp gauge you will also need the shunt resistor that is in a metal case that installed in the engine bay near the fuse links this is an important part for the gauge to work properly. Cheers

They are only for the 2 seaters (240/260) They where never a item part made for the *2+2 hatch as the roof design is different Cheers

Hi Kirby I replaced mine with a stainless steel hex head socket c/sunk 316ss 8mm x 20mm thread pitch 125 I get all my stainless through Blackwoods as I can buy 100 for the price of 10 than from other suppliers. lookup Blackwoods on line + product code ie ' Blackwoods 0446 4552 ' and you will see what you want. and there will be a store somewhere near you. Cheers Phil

Hi The hole in the centre is for a fuel indicator light. the 260 fuel float did not have a low fuel electrical connection therefore no light. the first 280z had that indicator then moved up to the dash console where the air vents are there is a position or the bezel (2 off) L @ R or the other way round not sure. You probably have to make one to blank it out as its for the us market not aus Phil

Try All Z Parts Hornsby NSW Got one a few yrs ago he had them in stock Phil

Hi Peter/George Thanks George for following this up As I will be in Sydney next year for a short term I have also signed up. I also hope we get the numbers $455 is a cheap rate to get guidance on these skills , plus networking with other people interested in this. and another option to the ManShed with all the toys for this supplied Phil

The red lined knob in the photo that is in the centre looks like the temperature switch for the AC type that is attached to the firewall (not the integrated centre consul type) this switch is generally located on the passanger side footwell underneath the dash.When you investigate the switch it should have a cooper coil and two electrical spade connections.the switch is the hot-cold temperature control so see what AC system is installed in your car. I dont have pics of the firewall type AC but I have seen that knob on a switch attached (passanger side) but i am sure there are people on the forum that might be able to give you some extra info.but its probably in a good location as the driver can easily adjust the thermostat. Cheers

Hi More importantly each State has different conditions and requirements to be able to re-register. If you buy in Vic /Qld does not guarantee registration in NSW when it is on the WOVR and been repaired as it still has o go under the strict process So it is more important to check your own state requirements before purchasing a vehicle that shows up on this register as NSW rules that came in on Feb 2013 has to be complied with to be registered in this state Cheers Phil

Hi Again in NSW once the car is on the written off register the only person that can have repairs done is the owner who has to prove previous ownership (>28 days) before it was put on the register. repair compliance of course is not easy (min 2 pit reviews ) and an authorised repairers report. If the vehicle is from another state and was on the register the certificate of registration will have a notation on it to show that it was a repaired write off and in NSW again has to go under a special registration check by the RMS.if it has to transfer registration to this state This is not easy anymore and for a Zed it is best not be be "written off ' for damage unless it is total structural. So again I agree go and check what are all the new issues with your state transport rules as the game has changed here since Feb 2013 cheers

Hi I think in NSW (other states?) legislation has been brought in that if a car has been " Written Off " its registration is cancelled and cannot be re-registered and there is no more repairable write off category. Cheers Phil

Gav Might have been a USA serviceman that was stationed in Japan and when returned to USA was able to ship back, as the cost would have been a lot lower and easier,I have heard of this happening before Cheers
