Dan, that is the poorest excuse ever :).

Does anyone know the exact way to get the dash out so I don't have to remove parts that dont need to be removed, I am changing dash lights and the lights that go where the hazards are etc.

Quick little tip?

Cheers :).

Did this a couple of weeks ago, remove about 4 screws on the top of the drivers side panel under the steering wheel, pull it down ever so gently as to see about another 4 screws under that holding the bottom of the instrument surround in, then 2 screws up the top and 2 screws, one under the headlight switch, one under the wiper switch. Remove the surround (be REALLY careful, 16+ y/o parts can be brittle!) then unplug cables. Instrument cluster is 4 screws and it will pull out + remove plugs behind.

EDIT: Im slack, its probably better to remove the lower panel all together, its an additional 2 screws down the bottom on the left hand side, 1 one the side where the door closes with a little dome cover over the top and 2 screws behind the bonnet release.

So much of the dash needs to be pulled apart on a 32, give me a 33 to do anyday ahaha

Nah I found it quite easy. I ended up replacing the entire front section of the interior anyhow (after I'd fitted the led's) so I had to take it apart again, and then had to do it a third time to fix the airconditioner actuator

I went to change my demister globes etc and the socket types are totally different to what I got sent to me from ZeroPoint Electronics?

I don't know, I'll PM him and see how the eff they're meant to work lol.

Anyone cruising tonight or we gonna have a bigger meet tomorrow night?

Take the LED out of the holder he gave you and the globe out of the rubber thing found in the switch. Then cut down the rubber thing (because the LED's wires are shorter) and thread LED wires through, wrap around so the base looks like original but shorter and with an LED. Easy.

Are you doing your climate control? Thats trickier than the switches.

    • thanks mate, one of the reasons I even bought it to be fair.
    • I found parts on EFI Solutions webshop that seemed to be the accurate ones. I haven't gotten around to fitting the turbos back on the car yet since I still have to deal with the shitty crack in the engine block. But I'm confident that the bolts I ordered will fit. According to EFI they are also 7-16/24. The reason M11x1 got involved here is because it is apparently very similar to 7-16/24.
    • Well, to be fair to the car I've driven it daily for almost a decade now, although in that time only put on 50k, as it just recently passed 100k miles early this year. For the most part its been fine because I've been able to source parts from AUS like jacks jdm and a few places in Japan, some things like pads have been easy since 300z pads swap right in... I realize its probably at that time in its life i should find a new DD (but I rent and only have so much space, no garage) so new cars just complicate things. As it is older though, I recognize its about that time as with my '67 GTO to maybe side step and find an alternative, but if i can keep driving it... I want to.   That said, I may just look into a local shop that might be able to, problem is the mechanic I work with has limited space as a mom and pop operation, and he's a busy busy man, so id need to find out if he can keep the car in the meantime, which may or may not be practical for him. Maybe I'll just buy one off jacks jdm and get that refurbed /shrug.. just looking at options and what others may have to offer for advice on the matter. Like I said, its hard finding people around here who actually have one, I've had mine 9 and a half years and I've met 3 others, and they are all military, one was oem from 95 with 30k miles (rip that car... guy got hit after someone crossed s double yellow, totaled it)
    • I've noticed my rear springs sag a bit compared to the fronts. I have stock springs and KYB struts. The front wheels are pretty consistent in their ride height, but compared to the front wheels, one of the rears sits 20mm lower, and the other 40mm lower. This negatively affects the ground clearance, and also angles the headlights up. What are some some economical options for new springs? Or information like good spring rates, lengths  in order to find a suitable replacement etc Far from lowering the car, I'd prefer to raise it a bit to keep it ground clearance friendly.
    • I searched for ages as well, I'm importing an engine to get the head off it.
