  1. I think @Zed Head found them a long time ago. I ordered some about 7 years ago.
  2. Yes. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JS8OU9M

    And I found the email after the order. Look at that price. 😞 I think one of the Jims posted about finding it 5 years ago. Nope! It was @Zed Head. The good news was that I did get a windshield 3 years ago for a great price thanks to a hook-up from a friend.

    And I checked my email archives to find the cancellation from Summit (5 years ago). It had the part number, so I looked it up.

    I think Summit Racing used to list the Pilkington windshields. I tried to order one, and the ship date kept moving out until my order was cancelled.
  6. Correct, the high/low beam switch on the turn signal stalk.
  7. Considering it's both headlights missing low beam, the most likely problem is with the switch.
  8. It's from the factory. If you crimp it properly, it can last for over 50 years. 😉
  9. No. But a 75 or 76 door would probably work.

    I've also done custom relay installations where you can't even see the relays. That's nice for people who want to minimize the visibility of modifications. Anyway, the non-polarity dependent bulbs are great for 260Z and 280Z owners since more modifications would be necessary to get the relays to work.

    Polarity isn't important if you use H4 housings with these H4 LED bulbs: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TQLK6SH
  12. Holy crap! Now the Bosch relay is out of stock everywhere!

    The SKP alternator for the 4 cylinder Frontier has the correct pulley. All of those that I have installed worked just fine.

    All of the details are in post #4 in this thread.

    The only modifications I needed to make were wiring related. I had to put a bigger ring on the wire for the B terminal. I put a 2 pin connector on the pigtail for the Frontier alternator to connect the S & L wires, and I had to de-pin 4 wires from the VR connector (only needed for 74-77) to jumper the wires for the S & L terminals. Oh, I did need a longer bolt for the front alternator mount for some reason. Otherwise, it fits like a glove.

    Hijack attempt! I swapped in the Frontier alternator into a friend's 77 this morning. Here's the jumper I made at the voltage regulator using a 4-pin Yazaki connector I purchased from Eastern Beaver. It's a nice water-resistant connector, and it's period appropriate. If he ever decides to go back to original, I can reverse the work, too.
  17. SteveJ posted a post in a topic in Electrical
    So what is the voltage at those two points?
  18. SteveJ posted a post in a topic in Electrical
    Just to be clear, you have to alter the wiring so that you have this: That is usually accomplished by jumpering the WB to BW at the voltage regulator and jumpering the Y to WR at the voltage regulator. Those are the voltage measurements we have been talking about.

    What white/red isn't connected? A photo or two would help. If your alternator isn't getting the sense voltage it would overcharge, just as @Captain Obvious said.

    The gasket didn't change the horn sound that I could tell.
  21. SteveJ posted a post in a topic in Electrical
    What I did for the paper gasket was take some card stock and cut it to the appropriate diameters. After punching the holes, I sprayed both sides with a few layers of plasti-dip.
  22. Look at reply 17 - https://www.zcar.com/threads/transistor-ignition-unit.424466/#post-2798228
  23. I don't know if the old Yazaki connectors are available anywhere. Even my good friend, Google, is stumped. The Yazaki connectors that are available aren't the same type. https://www.easternbeaver.com/Main/Elec__Products/Connectors/Sealed/YPC/ypc.html This one may work for the 2 pin connector: https://kojaycat.co.uk/epages/950000457.mobile/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/950000457/Products/2W-YAM-RD125-MAL-CONN https://kojaycat.co.uk/epages/950000457.mobile/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/950000457/Products/2W-YAM-RD125-FEM-CONN 6 pin: https://kojaycat.co.uk/epages/950000457.mobile/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/950000457/Products/6W-YAM-ML-CONN 4 pin: https://kojaycat.co.uk/epages/950000457.mobile/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/950000457/Products/4W-YAM-MAL-RD-YPC https://kojaycat.co.uk/epages/950000457.mobile/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/950000457/Products/4W-YAM-FEM-RD-YPC It's not easy finding those parts.
  24. Does that mean we're going to see a photo of a broken shaft?

    The best way to reduce heat in the parking light and headlight circuits is to use LEDs. For the other circuits, look at the ones using 20A fuses. (76 fuse box as an example) If you keep the same placement, note how close those 3 are together.
