    The scan for the 75 is missing sections. Download the 76 as well.

    No voltage at the solenoid and no voltage at the coil would probably indicate the switch. That is the common point for both of those circuits with the problem existing with the key in START and ON. Also check your fusible links for corrosion. You should have two in your car. They are located on a black block that may have a white cover (or yellowed with age) near the battery. There will be either white wires or white with red stripe wires going up to the bottom of the block.

    With the key in ON the fuel pump doesn't run unless the flap is open in the AFM. When measuring voltage at the coil, where did you put the probes? If you were touching the positive and negative terminals of the coil, you should see no voltage. With the lack of solid information, we can only just guess. The primary guess for me is the ignition switch. That is the module behind the key where the wiring harness connects.
  4. It was brought up and discussed here in a different thread I like what they are doing with the car, and I'm just tired of the people crabbing about what they don't like about it. The reveal party at ZCON was electric. I'm really glad I could see the reveal with a bunch of Z car enthusiasts. My car even got into the reveal video at 17:58 and 18:50.

    I forgot to mention earlier that one of the most popular raffle items at ZCON was one of the new reproduction gas tanks from S30.world. I got to see the tank up close, and it looks really good to me.
  6. According to Randy, the ceramic coating is improved with each application. I don't know about filling surface imperfections. I'm pretty sure it won't show up as white where you missing buffing the way wax does.

    It could have been worse.
  8. It's ridiculously easy to apply. The surface is crazy smooth. I like it better than trying to buff out wax. My friend Randy got me hooked. (By the way, he's the owner of the Jaeger Bomb car that won the gold medal at ZCON 2018 and was in the lobby of the hotel at ZCON 2020.)

    There were many 350Z NISMOs at the show. They arrived after my video. Also, there were plenty of S30s. It looked like there were more of them at the Judged Car Show than any other generation. The S130s were probably under represented.

    That's right. It's got the 2.0L engine, too.

  13. I took today off from work to recover from the ZCON trip, so I gave the 260Z a bath and used some C2 ceramic on it.

    While attendance was down due to Covid, a lot of the hard core people were in attendance. For you people out west and in the plains, ZCON 2021 will be August 16-21 in Colorado Springs.

    I got my video of the People's Choice Car Show uploaded. If you can, watch it in 4K.

    He arrived on Monday and left on Wednesday. I had a chance to chat with him at the reveal of the Z Proto on Tuesday.

    Interesting. I'll have to keep this one in mind.

    Here is a panoramic photo I shot of the cars lined up on the front stretch. Unfortunately some of the cars up front got cut off. Before that, I was in the garage area talking on the phone with a friend. Then Chris Karl, head of the ZCCA, asked me if I wanted to ride along with him on the parade laps. I told my friend that I had to go, grabbed my camera bag, and hopped into the passenger seat. (Well, as much as my old bones would let me hop into the passenger seat of a 370Z.) I didn't have a chance to get one of my action cameras with gimbal, so I got my old handycam out of my computer bag and did my best to hold it steady while Chris was putting on a show for the ZCON videographers. Before that, the cars were lining up double file to go onto the track for parade laps. Again, no time for the steady camera equipment (sorry!), but I thought the video looked neat.

    Dang it. Someone wiped out at track day. I thought it was Greg IRA from a distance. The driver is okay.

    Sunrise at ZCON

    Nissan put on a great show for the ZCON attendees today. The setting was great. They fed us and had cars from the Heritage collection on display. I had a blast. https://photos.app.goo.gl/NYnCcyg1rKe3VF6K8

    Here's the video to go with the photos from the Judged Car Show.
  25. Oh, and if they were broadcasting when someone in Nashville yelled, "Save the manuals!", that was me.
