FAJs are much cheaper, i have some. But I haven't fitted them yet so can't prove they're as good, but on the other hand, it's a pair of 45 mm tubes at a given spacing with a hole for injectors to squirt into. How hard can it be? [emoji16]Managed to pick up a set of carbon trumpets ready for my TBIm install and found a 45mm Jenvey TB for mock up (need two more if anyone has any...)
Just slowly amassing parts and hopefully after I return from holiday in September I can slowly start progressing more with this.. the house renovation is currently taking most of my time up and I don't have any spare money for this!

Wheels look lovely, although IMO Watanabe prices are always daft!Right so now I have finished sorting out a friends Z I can move forward a little with this - although house work still taking priority.
Expect updates!
I have acquired a few more bits... Including a full set of the above trumpets but they may be too long to fit in the bay depending on manifold length (so on the look out for a short runner if anyone has one?)
Some wheels:

Genuine Watanabe 15's 7.5J width and 0 offset. Always wanted Watanabe wheels but these came up for a daft price and I jumped at them.
Also picked up all the venting for the rear tailgate.
Hopefully Ill start prepping the body perhaps this weekend after having a tidy up - I am going to alter my rotisserie slightly so it makes it easier to move around as its a little too high to work on the top half but great to work on the underside.

Wow. If you come across another set at that price, I'll give you a 10% finders fee [emoji6]If I said I got them for under £300 would you say that was daft?!

That's a bargaintastic price for The Real Thing, but are you sure they are actually zero offset? They look a bit more like positive offset for a 7.5j to me.
For comparison, here's a pair of 'B' type in 7j x 14":
Perfect fitment for Datsun 510 !Sorry Albrecht, I’ve posted 0 offset but they are positive. +8.5 et

You can get a narrower manifold for thr TBs I’ll measure mine when I get the Zed back if you want,you can put a decent size air box on if that’s the way you are going
