I cant handle it any more Andy :biggrin:

Looks like oil has burnt on the ceramic, could be a leaky rocker gasket if it's back there. Checked for boost leaks yet?

ah, no I haven't... what's the best way to check ? ( sorry if its a silly question, im not a mechanic at all but trying to give it a go a learn with this car)

Compressor and a boost leak tester. You pressurise to 5psi then listen for the hisses. Pretty simple.

Awesome thanks for that I shall give it a go this weekend!

You will need to make or buy a boost leak tester...

There's a shop near me that sell all that sort of stuff, so I'll pop there Saturday :)

Do you ever drive that car down to bmth?

I would if I could get it to run right, I've had it since December and its been off the road more than its been on it, where I have done work and had some work done on it.

Got off my fat arse this morning, got my new rear tyres spun on and swapped out the bonnet. You may remember my bonnet had an issue, well this was it.... The paint had lifted off.

So a black bonnet that could be used as per as a temporary measure was kindly donated by Znut, I popped up to his place one evening and collected it. This gave me the opportunity to try out the colour and required less prep for being re sprayed.

Bit of elbow grease,

Fully fitted and ready to be polished and waxed.

 

Honest opinions welcome, I think the nose panel needs to be black.

Prefer it all red to be honest but thats just me mate. It still looks good with the black bonnet as it gives it more of a modded look.

Jury is still out for me ATM. Square on I like it but profile it looks odd.

I like it, had a black bonnet on my old one as my red one had dodgy paint. Red & black always looks good in my opinion.

Don't think that the harlequin look suits your Z32, all red would be my choice.

Red all the way...2 tone looks a bit "work in progress" imo... but I spose with a Zed it always is!

Paint it. Looks like you've had a bump and fitted an unpainted pattern bonnet! Ditch the snout too and it'll look spot in Steve!
