Turbo Boost Controller
Simmo, 1- Good idea ;) but don't go mad with the boost (keep it under 11 psi or so) - otherwise your engine will go 'BANG' , unless you have a remapped ECU. No, you only need the one boost controller 2- You will get equal boost off both turbos anyway. If you look towards the back of your engine, on top, you will see a pipe linking both banks of the engine. This "balance bar" does exactly that. 3- Paperweight - as a temporary measure until the boost controller is fitted :) Dave

Clutch bite point
I know SGP do a braided clutch hose now - supposed to have the same benefits of braided brake hoses - could be a worthwhile mod :confused: Dave

Bliz wheel care
I know a few of you out there have a set, so can you please help me out? I've heard all sorts of stories eg "you only have to sneeze and they will be scratched" :eek: So what do you use to clean them (ie water/specialist cleaner/fresh urine) and how (ie sponge/rag/wife's old knickers :D etc) Cheerz Dave

De-catted and boost leak fixed
Been a busy few days for my z lately; wheels, tyres and strut brace over the weekend. Today I went to see PhilZ at C&S Wood for an MOT and a de-cat. He also fixed my boost leak that has been "doing me head in" for months :rolleyes: The culprit was the pipe from the wastgate of the passenger side turbo:- The car boosts much, much better than before and the exhaust now has a deeper sound :cool: I even got round to fitting the aerial I bought off Ajay when I got home :eek: now I know how to use a "socket set" :rolleyes: Dave

Handling
Today, I thought I'd throw my Z around a few 'twisties' - to be honest I'm a bit of a 'shit-house' on the twistier stuff (after an encounter on a wet roundabout in a Supra many years ago :rolleyes: ) Anyway, after going to 18's and the fitting of a front strut-brace this weekend, following on from the installation of poly tension rod bushings a couple of weeks ago, I cannot believe the difference in the way the car feels. I feel now that I can enter any corner at a 'slightly more than sensible speed' and exit in one piece. I know the term 'runs on rails' is a hackneyed and over-used expression. But stick a 'Railtrack' logo on the side of my zed and I'll happily wear a station masters hat - woowoo :D Seriously, I found that the poly bushes made the biggest improvement in handling and I would recommend this mod to anyone. Just thought I'd share! ;) Dave

Freeloading
Agreed Nigel, after all, what's £20? Just over 1/4 tank of petrol 3 Autoglym products 1/5 of a decent set of brake pads 5% of the price of a boost controller etc etc etc Dave

WTF is this Supra?????
A waste of what was probably a very nice MKIII in the first place :eek: These are of "sentimental value" to me ;) Dave
