might be stupid question but how do you open the boot with the wing on? Or do you cut slots in the boot?

Cheers

i think all the cutting of the boot has been done to the wing stays appear thru like that..

wing off to open it i'd imagine.. (not that there is much point in opening it anyway).. unless struts have adjustment on top could get annoying setting them up..

I dont think boot access is a real problem with that one. This is the correct way to mount a rear wing, and the same way its done on our factory Porsche built GT Series car. You could stand on it, which is how it has to be :)

Mark, did you receive your WR35OP Extended Oil Pan yet? :thumbsup:

yep good idea. we have spare ebay steerign wheels for both cars when we are not at the track. the good suede ones get damaged too easily, especially by oil.

I like you committment to this car....lots of good work going into it and nothing seems to be off limits....looking forward to catching up at Superlap

yep will be good to catch up with everyone.

So nice, will need a wheel for grubby hands between events

I have an identical 330mm Sparco wheel in normal leather I could let go for a reasonable price if you're interested?

I've been using a deep dish wheel on the street and discovered at the last track day when I bolted the Sparco on that I've grown too accustomed to the driving position of the deep dished wheel... I didn't feel at home with the greater reach for the flat wheel anymore.

    • oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)
    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
