Yep, I just enabled the option. I wanted to see how it worked. Apparently, it's a peer-to-peer grading system. Since I just enabled it, I will need some extra time to configure the values. I can set up the titles to whatever we want. MikeW is correct, the values need to be adjusted and configured. After they are, I will need to run a database scan and put everybody where they should. For instance, I could start everyone at 0 and let the system work up from there. Reputation scores can be gained from other members, post count, and general contribution to the site. -- Mike

Hey Alfa, put the photos in our gallery. Use one of the empty event holders and I'll rename it for you.

Hahahaha.... a "little bit" about Z's? Dean, Carl knows more than he leads on. You're in good hands. Take Carl up on the offer as you will be getting advice from one of the biggest Zcar fanatics around. -- Mike

I would put the car on jackstands so the tires aren't under a load all winter.

Enrique has an awesome write up about wiring the fog-lights... In fact, it was so good, I moved it to our technical articles forum. Here's the link: http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23465

The small hole, as shown in his picture, was intended (in the early cars) for a switch to turn on/off the fog/driving lights. The cigarette lighter is in the center console next to the fuse block and it won't fit in that small hole. If you look at the wiring harness behind the dash, there are two connections taped to the harness. The harness is already pre-wired for the lights. But, many cars never used the fog/driving lights.

Check out Motorsport Auto. They had a bunch of my heater parts in stock. http://www.zcarparts.com -- Mike

There are some people who supply NLA parts. Let us know what you need and we should be able to help.

So, what's the benefit of the Honda blower and which one do I buy? -- MIke

No, there's no difference.

What about aluminum? Billet parts are cool.

Halz, don't sell it.... my god... you've been on this club forever!!! Don't go! Oh, and don't forget those warm sunny Sunday mornings where you can drive your baby around the rolling hills of Perth. I love that interior! I wonder how much it would cost to ship it to the US? -- Mike

Hey, check out this article I found while at the gym. Does the 2008 350z have a longer nose or is it just that angle? In my opinion, the new design looks less like the toad everyone used to call it. Oh, and the COLOR is absolutely mah-va-lous.... -- Mike

Wiring harnesses!!!!

Enrique, That website needs some help. There is no contact information and not much in the way of description of services. Who's running it?

Jim, your links above didn't work. Can you resend them?

Nope... I may have a source for that, but, the tool is likely $100+

Yipee... I found some good stuff. Funny thing, it was on THIS website. HA!! http://eagleday.stores.yahoo.net/blco.html

Here's something that is up my alley.. http://www.suresealconnections.com/ Of course, I would LOVE to find all of the original connectors. Hasn't anyone been down this road?

Hey all, Do any of you have a good source for the 10 guage spade connectors under the dash ? I am looking to replace a melted connector and I need to find the male and female spades along with the plastic housings. I am not against going with an aftermarket part, but, I only want the best. The crimp-on cheap-o connectors you can find at the auto parts store won't work for me. I'm thinking about a GM water-tight or equivalent.

So far I've purchased my parts from a variety of sources. MSA, Classic Datsun, Ebay, and the local Nissan dealers. Other parts such as electrical wiring, tape, lube, and such things were purchased from auto parts stores around the area.

I just did a search in our gallery for "carbon" and found it. Ron Carter is the guy. He's an active member and I'm sure he'd be happy to share his experience with you. Here's a link to the photo: http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=1822&si=carbon

I believe we have a photo of a CF dash that someone put together a few years ago. You'll have to search through the galleries to find it. After you find it, send the guy a PM. I don't believe it was an easy mod.

It sounds like you've fixed many of the problems inside the cockpit. Now, you just need to concentrate on the engine area. If I were you, pull that engine and replace all of your injectors. Clean up the engine area and put it all back together.
