General Discussions - Non 300ZX

Cant wait as I hate the dark evenings :sleep:

engine managment light kept coming on and i got told it was the egr valve, so set about cleaning it and degunking it and it was no better, so got me bro in law to pop up and he had a good look around and found a valve with a diaphram in it that wasnt working, so we just pulled the small pipe off and disconnected it and plugged the pipe with a screw, he also told me that the turbo hadnt been boosting properly due to this it now actually pulls through the gears and for the first time in about 8 months ive gotten over 70mph cant believe ive put up with that for so long lol

Hi folks. Just wondering if theres any instrument technicians on the site, or even people intrested in calibrating instruments atall? I located some websites offering free calibration books so i ordered some up for myself. Just thought it could be useful to other also: http://www.vaisala.com/instruments/calibrationbook.html http://www.beamex.com/campaign/beamex-book_v1.phtml Should also try the engineering forum, normally some decent blokes on the site who know there stuff; http://www.eng-tips.com

:sorcerer: congratulations to dannzx for becoming a GRANDAD for the 2nd time, he'll kill me for saying this lol...:2guns:

The next time you are washing your hands and complain because the water temperature isn't just how you like it, think about how things used to be. Here are some facts about the 1500's: They used to use urine to tan animal skins, so families used to all pee in a pot & then once a day it was taken & sold to the tannery.......if you had to do this to survive you were "Piss Poor"But worse than that were the really poor folk who couldn't even afford to buy a pot...........they "didn't have a pot to piss in" and were the lowest of the low. Most people got married in June because they took their yearly bath in May, and they still smelled pretty good by Ju…

Guys Do any of you ever send cash in the post?. I know most posties have a bad rep but do you think they would actually take a £5 note with a stamp in the corner and address label on it?. Maybe with a note on the back begging them to be honest and deliver it? Could they resist it in open sight????? :huh: So this is what I propose someone give me their address and I will send a £5 note with a stamp on the corner and an address label on the front and then lets see if you get it?. If you do you should do the same to someone on the forum until it gets stolen in the post. I will post pictures of it

Been looking at Snoopers and Road Angels. Bought a Snooper online, but if it's crap, I'll look at getting a Road Angel. Now, I have a Tom Tom which carries things like speed limits on roads, sites of fixed cameras etc. Wanting a Radar Detector just to be on the safe side. I know there are various models made by both manufacturers. The Snooper I've bought is a Snooper SD715iS. Anyone use these?

Anybody on here own a Prius ?? Didnt think so ! Heres the Toyota Prius simulator !! http://www.toyotasimulator.com/ Alan............

- We know exactly where every untaxed car is located among the millions of car owners in the UK, but we haven't got a clue where thousands of illegal immigrants and terrorists are located. So why doesn't Gordon brown put the Fking DVLA in charge of immigration..:gunsmilie:

Not happy with your job? Quit and get a new one. Duh. Try striking it in the "real" world or any company I've ever worked at. You'd have kept us laughing for the year. Would have been the funniest thing we've heard or seen in the last decade. Take the free flights/perks away from the Children, Forever.

Does anyone work for the post office? Got a card through the letter box today for I think two parcels, now the guy thats filled it in has cunningly not said which item number is for which type of packet (as there is a special delviery and a recorded signed for. Both are the asme format, BUT they are slightly different in text and colour. So: ZJ 4969 0366 3GB has a blue half circle bit at the right side of the sticker (I think tahts special delivery as its blue??) CZ 6475 8618 2GB has a black tab at the right side of the sticker which has radius corners but is more rectangular than the other one, think this is signed for. I need to know to fill in t…
