I'm seeing the same issue when I search for this part. Have you tried calling Ztherapy to see if they have any in their refurbished pile? I know they can re-zinc parts and Steve might have something in his stock.

Hey all, just wondering if anyone from Portugal is here. I’m in the country for two weeks. Lisbon, Porto, then to Algarve.

Yeah, I like the look of the BRE spoiler. I'll pick up the front valance and get the headlight buckets repainted too. Right now that whole set is a bit off color from the rest of the car... not really noticeable to most but it really bugs me.. ha! Luckily I found the paint codes in my files from the original work. I didn't have that when the airdam and buckets were painted.

I would install everything untinted to avoid scratches during installation. After everything is installed, keep the door cards and window trims off the car. You can take it to a shop and they'll be able to install just fine. Once they are done you can drive it home and install the remaining parts without fear of scratching.

Had a little fun with this one... CZCC Country2.mp3

Thanks, yeah I'll do the installs one at a time.

I finally got around to ordering the Nismo pump. Take a look at it installed on the Kyusha bracket. I'll be installing on the car next time we have a nice day here in Seattle.

@zKars thanks for digging those out and taking photos, I really appreciate it. I've currently got three options: Old set from jfa - $ - Likely a lot of repair/fitting work required New/old set from zKars - $$ - Some repair/fitting work required New set from resurrectedclassics - $$$ - Least repairs but likely fitting required

Gents, I got this from an email through our support system. It's about a period correct tire size for those of you sporting stock rims. I thought I would share here. No affiliation and he is not a sponsor on the site. Please check for accuracy. Mike

Thanks @zKars, do you have all three pieces?

Hi guys, I'm strongly considering going to a stock front valance. My car currently has an airdam installed. I like it but eventually this car will need to go back to its former glory. I may consider one of the BRE short airdams in the center though. Anyway, do you have any ideas where I can find a set in good condition? I've been away from the real world for awhile. Mike

I think he was having issues with his powder-coat service so he made a stainless version.

Probably, but I think the pump itself is mounted on rubber bushings?

Update: I did purchase this and was contacted by the shop owner, Taka Sato, soon after I placed the order. He said he has a new (v2) in stainless and would be interested in my feedback. I agreed to the new version and he threw in a T-shirt and sticker. Great guy and very safe purchase. Now I just need to buy the actual fuel pump. 🙂

Looks like you're the only one going... 😛

Yep, that's why this group is so great! We all know how to get things one way or another. You can't find a decent bracket anymore. Most of the unit's I've seen are rusty, bent, or just not available. AFIK, Nissan no longer sells them. The way I look at it, we shouldn't bash a company because of something we can do ourselves. However, they have found a need and filled it with a product. I highly respect this idea and encourage it. I don't have the time, nor the resources, to build my own. So, I have purchased it with the intention of focusing my time elsewhere. Do-it-yourself projects are always a decision between time or money. But I WILL be installing this myself... 😉 As far as my status, I received an update the next day I placed my order with Kyusha. The next batch of brackets are in production now and I'll get one fresh off the press. Mike

I just placed an order for this bracket. I'll let you know how it goes.

Ah this is sad news.. He was an active member here in the past. I remember him fondly. Blessings go out to his family. Rest well, and drive that perfect Z in heaven my friend.

For me, the list is small but complex: Find and install a rebuilt brake switch distribution valve Install higher temp brake fluid (damn headers are too hot) Buy and install a Mikuni heat block shield (again, headers) Buy and install Nismo electric fuel pump and bracket m

Hope everyone has a great new year! BTW, what *ARE* your resolutions (with your Z of course)?

I'll be purchasing this after the new year and installing one of the Nismo pumps. It looks like the pumps are readily available on Ebay. Does anyone know if there was a period-correct pre-filter for this setup?

Yes, there are holes pre-drilled in the frame. I found mine over the summer -- behind the passenger rear wheel and near the tank. Sorry can't find the pic.

Aha! I may have found it!!! FYI, I have no dealings with this business so take at your own risk. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cqgj_2NvPjw/?img_index=1 Buy here: https://kyushahouse.myshopify.com/products/zsm-custom-nismo-fuel-pump-bracket-for-s30-240z-280z Mike

I would be interested.. 😉 Also someone mentioned that Taka-something is remanufacturing these. I have no idea who they are, but a link would be much appreciated.
