Posted January 10, 200817 yr comment_233479 Ok, so I have done some searching, but need a little help.On the Eletric Distributor that I picked up from a 1980zx, there are some wires that I have no clue what to do with. Is there some kind of manual that someone has made so that I know where to hook these wires?Also, I just found out that I need a base bracket, but I am not sure if I have one or not, so where could I find something like this that I can get ASAP.Also, does anyone know of a Z shop in Santa Cruz area, as I have some eletrical issues that I need fixed and I am not one with electrical stuff. Guage lights are extremely dim, head lights are out, wipers don't work, brake lights don't work and the interior lights are out.

January 10, 200817 yr comment_233560 Nissan has the base you need. What year Z are we talking about here? The ZX dist only requires two wires . I have installed a few of the ZX dest., in the past on early 240s including my own '73 and the stock tach has always continued to work just fine . If it was working before.
