cheers team!

well i've just gotten back to blenheim after a holiday in australia wakeboarding the whole time which was sick! but now its time for some more work!
the more i get into my wiring the more i think i should find an untouched 1200 coupe loom and start all over.. it looks like the last owner ha changed a lot of things around.. there are different light switches and windscreen wiper controls and wiring and none of it works.. and theres just a mess of wires.. my mate knows of a 1200 coupe thats in a paddock somewhere in nelson thats stuffed so hopefully its still there and i can go and try find the owner and get all the wiring out of that! but if anyone has a 1200 loom around i would be keen to buy it!
and does anyone know if the 1200 coupe/sedan/ute would have the same loom?

i really want to just rip out all the stupid crap in my car and just start over!

also does anyone know what this is in the picture?!

thanks for the help team!

Run the ssr replicas they are way sweeter than banzais, everyone has those.

yes they will IMO. I hate cars with different wheels front and rear.

However now you have two you only need to find two more in the future then you can swap em then.
Thats just my opinion though, others will disagree with me.

Buy another pair of mk1s from japan. Or another pair of deep japanese wheels. Doesnt matter if they dont match as long as they are wild jap wheels!

I strongly agree with anyone who says you can run two differnt sets of wheels. Even diff front to back! Do it! Wider on the back!!
dont have to play by everyone else rules!

I agree to a certain extent. It just matters what he thinks looks good or not I guess.

Just remember z18et1200coupe:
