park light fuse blows out
TS = turn signal. check all of the bulbs. check the recepticals for corrosion and rust. try taking out all of the lights and see if there is any change. sorry, i don't have any pics.

^ i get what you mean, since i'm driving my Z as a DD now (and the wife has the infiniti) it would be incomprehensible to attempt phone communication while driving...

park light fuse blows out
there is actually another thread active that has a member who is having the same problem. do a search and see what they've come up with so far. EDIT- i actually realized that his was the stop light fuse. i just got my car out of the shop for this exact thing. turned out it was rust on one of my TS connectors. also check the combo switch and you also might have to bypass the dash light dimmer rheostat.

stop light fuse box problem.
i don't have a pic, but it's the little switch that is pressed when the brake pedal is released. look down at the brake pedal and you will see it.

fan goes into radiator
correct, yet not all electric fans fit. the thinner ones DO work, but a good amount are too thick.

How Stuff Works Website
not too shabby. i see the controverisal mention ov von Goertz in there, and also erroneous information about the standard transmission, but overall a decently written article and @ zoidberg

lookin for 240z Socal
there are tons of options around that price. you can actually find a pretty decent one for that. what work are you willing to put into it for it to be a daily driver? i'm assuming that's what you want it for, right? what areas of auto work are your forte?

stop light fuse box problem.
ya, electrical is my kryptonite. bummer; can't think of anything simple that it could be :/

stop light fuse box problem.
^agreed. make an investment in dave's headlight relay upgrade. but i'm willing to bet on the fact that there is some corrosion behind the fuse panel, even if it's not visible. seriously, solder that little round part to the larger part. if i had pics i would show you.

^or the electric fans being fitted were too thick. IIRC, even the popular taurus fan swap is too thick to be used with the L6

what is your budget? i'm ALWAYS on CL and see things from $1300 to $13000. i'll be down to go with you to check some out, too.

stop light fuse box problem.
i had a similar problem; these fuse boxes are common areas of anguish anyway, it turned out that the heat was caused by resistance in the connector. i flipped over the fuse box, cleaned all of the connectors, and soldered the junction point of the fuse connector (if that makes any sense to you)

Steering Rack bushings . . .
once they're on there, you'll prob have about 1/2" between the 2 ends. you will have to torque them down to get them to squish. oh, and it feels MUCH nicer with those bushings in there. SOLID feel.
