All you have to do is unplug one connector under the dash and they'll stay down until you either push the button or flash the brights. Sometimes, you'll definitely want them to come up. It's too dark with 1/4 of the light you'd normally have with them up.

The front lip you were talking about looks like it's part of a very conservative body kit, as those side skirts are not stock. I'm sure, if you can find the kit, it's way overpriced, as all of them seem to be.

AZ-ZBum's site is just an info site. He isn't selling all those body kits.

Read this: http://www.garymolitor.com/300zx/ss_...spoilerref.htm

The "TBO" was produced in Japan in the late 80s either by a company known as TBO or FAST Products, which is no longer in business.
He's selling replicas? http://www.garymolitor.com/300zx/ss_...poiler_lip.htm

I don't like the lip unless it's even with the rest of the car, or at least the side skirts. That white one looks like it hangs lower than anything else. It's nothing but curb bait.

alright. im getting fustrated now. the guy that is selling me the z31 said that there is a ecu in the engine block or something thats messed up. and i posted what he said on here and someone told me that he is probably talking about some sensor?

well i been looking all over the place and cant seem to find that sensor. if that sensor is out then im gonna have to replace it. but cant find a place to buy a new one. can someone help please?

We could help if we know what sensor you were talking about.

i dont know. he said there is a ECU in the engine block. which i think is kinda retarded. he said because of that the car wont start. someone here said that theres only one ECU on the z31 and its over there by the passanger side? but thats what he said. but isnt there a sensor around the engine block? that could cause the car not to start?

sound like you gotta figure it out yourself, either your ECU is bummed or a sensore vital to the engine is, like the CAS or MAF sensor or ignitor etc. get a FSM and start troubleshooting, we can't answer this question for you unfortunately.

You're not going to get any useful info out of a guy who knows nothing about his own car.

since you're JDM then your car must be a right hand drive. The main sensor on the passenger side is the Mass Airflow Sensor. Those do commonly go out but they usually don't prevent the Z31 from starting. Other then that, the Cylinder Heat Temp Sensor (CHTS) can cause running issues. If your car won't start, reset your ECU and make sure you have fuel. Maybe spray some starting fluid into the intake manifold, seal up the intake, and then crank it a bit. If you have some spark then it should fire a few times at least.
