Thanks Peter - how do we contact Scott to arrange?

I'd love to see those "tons of pics" that you've got Peter - especially if there are any of the Zed in action

I made a bet with myself that the first photo that I found of my car on the day would be that one (black 260Z in the ditch). Got any of the 260Z actually on the skidpan?

Nice clear pic, but it is difficult to tell the size of the crownwheel bolts (however they do look smaller than 17mm). I uploaded an edited version of your photo and circled the bolts in question - if you still have the diff out of the car, then if you just fit a socket onto one of those bolts you can tell what size it is. I am aware of the crownwheel bolt size differences, but I have contacts whom do this sort of thing for a living & I'll be talking to them in depth when they return from holidays on Monday... so I do have more than just a passing interest in this diff. Also do you have any idea on shipping costs from Perth to Sydney?

Yes if it is a clear picture showing the crownwheel I should be able to guesstimate the bolt size BTW I am still investigating the viability of fitting a shortnose R200 diff centre into a longnose R200

do you know what size the crownwheel bolts are? ie: 12mm, 17mm.....

I wouldn't be too certain on this being the case most of the time - I have been asking around and searching for over a week now and from what I have heard the shortnose R200s do not bolt in to the longnose R200s eg: http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthr...hlight=R200+LSD and http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthr...hlight=R200+LSD

Sorry for my ignorance, but.... Mech Diff means the clutch type, not viscous right? Also the R32 diff is a short nose R200 right? Thanks (I am trying to find something to suit my 260Z).
