    So my old speedo was put in and found a neater place to splice the wires into.

    Popped over today. Very nice Z, and that TK logo on the spoiler gets me very excited.
    One thing has been bugging me. What year is it!? I thought you couldn't import 2+2 N/As because we sold the same exact model here. That makes yours a '97, but surely you would've told me if it was! And the tweed says otherwise ;)

    its a 1990. Found reciepts in it aswell from japan for 1997, so somewhere between 97 and now it was imported aha

    Ah, I see.
    How did a '90 end up with fancy new-fangled climate control?

    Climate control...

    1990, Jspec imports came with auto climate control.

    And so the problems begin

    Well as in typical zed fashion I've started to notice problems.
    1- the climate control pod dies completely, gets illumination power but nothing else works, no wipers no nothing, had the wipers stuck half way along the windscreen for 20 mins yesterday driving through the city.....
    2- rear demister doesn't work, quite annoying as I can't see what's behind me
    3- the steering is a little loose, assuming the rack bush is busted
    4- power steering pump sounds a little tired.

    Anyway enjoying driving her as she's in my name and insured, all will hold a tech day probably after G.O.R to put my old dash in, as well as replace the heater core

    Plans for the future:
    Retrim seats
    New wheels, either ssr ms1's, work Meisters, work vs-xx or nismo lmgt1's
    Enjoy the car
    Then tt motor.

    Other than the problems, how does it drive, happy?

    Haha that's after I fix all that did you notice I said future ;)
    Will get a daily banger before all that too (after I fix these problems)

    iPad typing would be the cause for that...

    Yeah very happy! Good to drive one Again


    Yeah let me work out what I want to replace it with first :)

    Fixed one of the problems, maybe too. Wont know until the rear window fogs up again.
    Ended up replacing the fuse box with my old one as this one had a bit of corrosion in and around the plugs :confused: and relays..
    Anyway I now have wipers and climate control..

    Yeah of course! Everything that I want most likely wont be done by G.O.R but she will be drivable.

    Another piece for the sound system

    Decided my 12" was too big, and so i went and bought a 10 and started to build my own box, more details on that later.
