My car detonates at WOT but seems to be from drivers side..... If this is caused by underfuelling at WOT how do I rectify this? Many thanks Regardz

Hi All, Swapped my chip last night (thanks ChrisC). I had no noticeable gain in BHP/torque which leads me to believe I was already running an upgraded chip. S'pose sub 5 secong 0-60's should have given it away ;-) The first thing that struck me was that I have been effectively uninsured for the last six months - if the f*ckers can get out of a claim on a technicality they will so my advice is make sure you know what's in your magic box!! We get ripped off for insurance anyway without giving them money for nothing.... My 1/4P's worth RobH

Got my car back from Zedworld the other day and ive got to tell everyone what a top job they did. The car drives 10 times better than it did before, theres no wonder Jeff is so busy. Top job, Great Price and Great Service.

A priest took a sabbatical to a fishing lodge. On the last day of his trip, he hooked a monster fish and proceeded to reel it in. The guide, holding a net, yelled, "Look at the size of that Son of a Bitch!" "Son, I'm a priest. Your language is uncalled for!" the priest said. "No, Father," replied the guide, "that's what kind of fish it is. It's a Son of a Bitch fish!" "Really? Well help me land this Son of a Bitch!" chimed the priest. Once in the boat, they marveled at the monster. "Father, that is the biggest Son of a Bitch I've ever seen" said the guide. "Yes, it is a big Son of a Bitch," replied the priest. "What should I do with it? " aske…

Define "joke" and define "personal dig" ? Not easy/possible. If people make friends here, by definition it must also be possible to make enemies. In the same way, while you can submit posts which please others you MUST be able to submit ones which offend/annoy. So try not to OFFEND OR be OVERSENSITIVE. There's no other option. We are human. We cannot expect it to run smoothly all the time - all we can and should do, is tell people when they're talking crap, not just jump on everyone when there's a dispute. People should avoid getting bitchy comments in, and then saying "I was only joking". BUT, people should also avoid taking comments too seriously. If someone s…

Hmm more soapy Veilside fun: OH Aye!!! ------------------ ->Glen

How gutted would I be if I sold the zed and bought a modified (280bhp) pulsar gti-r? Anyone here owned one of these and could give me a little info on the differences? Like I say just a thought as a guy at work is selling his and I'm gonna have a go in it to check it out. Cheers Martin ------------------

I have noticed there has been dischord in the Harmony of the forum and that several members have disturbed AURAS surrounding their posts. I have consulted the local Sharman regarding this and he recommends we form a collective group hug post. Any member replying to this post shall be blessed in all group buys, have no trouble with their Z's for a year (we are still working on this one), and shall reach 600BHP with ease and without detonation. The Hug can come to fruition at Billing, with no Homosexual (only for Timmy) undertones and we shall ask the Z Club to be at one with us!!! I shall ask our spiritual leader GIO to lead us in this cermony to rid us…

Hi Computer Whizkids, Can you give me a helping hand. I ran defrag literally as I said for Four Days and it only ever completed 10% before restarting again! As far as I knew I shut down any windows programmes that were running, but how do you tell? Any advice, apart from enrolling on a computer course would be appreciated! Cheers, Mark

Craig/Nico, http://www.wds2000.co.uk/products/hosting.asp Have a word with these guys, see what they can do for the forum. Select the 'Gold' option, I have not read it through properly but seems like there are no limits (bandwidth/storage) for 50 pounds per year. Worth a look. Might be what's needed. Matty. ------------------

What about renaming this site to the www.jerryfuckinspringer.co.uk ? Because everyday there is allways some twat ready to start a fight!!! Argue for the sake of it bla bla fuckin bla! All I can say is Roll on Billing!!!!!!! ------------------

i thought id used alot of petrol in my Z today (well more that normal) so i had the bright idea of taping the dash by the fuel gauge and guess what the rev counter just whent all the way rount to the turbo gauge ignition was off so could it just be the nedal clip that has come off hopefully because on my supra the oil gauge didnt work ant that had just come off any sugestions please thanx Simon

The time is nearly upon me to get the engine tuned correctly. But it has to be by someone who is not going to blow up the engine again on the rollers. I seem to have limited choices if I want someone with access to a rolling road and dyno capable of over 400bhp. And also someone with a really good knowledge of modified 300zxTT's. It seems to be SE Nissan or no one but they don't have their own rolling road and refer you to the guy who they use in Colchester ... no I normally like referrals but I had that problem recently, hence a blown engine. Called Abbey Motorsport but although they are very nice they don't have a lot of experience on 300s and no rolling road. So w…

Has anyone used this company for tyres. They seem reasonably priced.. Darren

Has anyone got/know of one of these ? http://www.power-enterprise.co.jp/exp/pbc/en_pbc.htm Regards Darren

Whats all that about then ? ? ?? ? I understand the basics and am looking to get a decent electronic boost controller but I'm worrying about going pop. The stock ECU listens out for knock/detonation and then reduces the max boost to save the pistons - right? (OK - so theres O2 sensors, fuel quality, temperature etc etc to think about as well) But does anyone know if any aftermarket boost controllers sense knock to adjust max boost ? ?? ? Anyone got any experience of this, or advice on which controller to go for. Cheers ZZZZZ-Head

mine is worn and the top coating has come off, am looking to replace it. if anyone has a perfect condition one then give us a shout. cheers Steve

After missing out on the Isle Of Wight Batmobile - Grrrr, talk about gutted, at least the hovercraft was fun I suppose - i'm still looking for a Manual TT Zed (have almost lost the will to keep looking). Any colour as long as it's not red. (no offence to those who own red ones - they're just not my thing) Anyway, if you've got the car, I've got the cash.
