    Optronic ignition

    I've never had to maintain my Pertronix, I only replaced it for an identical one for peace of mind

    Optronic ignition

    I've fitted Pertronix to my '72 myself, perhaps these are similar? https://www.thezstore.com/category/831/performance-ignition-systems

    Has anyone restored the seat runners?

    I do like to think there's a nice part hidden that's been lovingly restored tucked away somewhere, possibly waiting for the next owner to look at and say "Blimey that's mint!"

    260Z - over revving on gear change

    Hmm, rebuilt engine? Did you readjust the settings on the carbs? They'd need a new set up if that engine is running better. Only other thing is the vacuum advance on the dizzy?

    '73 S30 Headlamps and Euro travel

    Fantastic bit of kit and totally reversible too. I had his little 3D printed bits that hold the spark plug leads as well. Top bloke 👍

    Ha, must have been a good purchase, you got a link there? Also: I might have a spare relay kit kicking around somewhere. I bought it just in case my own relay set up was rubbish but, works a treat mine does 👍 Think @240L31 created them when he was doing his own, his stuff is solid as I had his...

    I bought the ones with the additional side bulb but, I also regret that as it is a pain in the ass to get right - the bulb holder is too delicate and I think IIRC, was broken on delivery. I just bought the good H4 ones from Halfords and I'm happy with the results from those.

    Hi George I'm having trouble remembering at the moment and my photos aren't helping; I think your new light units and the metal they sit in don't line up perfect. But the wires should be able to bend to fit in any case like Fairlineguy says. I cut mine because I stupidly thought I could mix...
