When the crank sprocket is really seized on its best to drill a hole through it and split it with a small chisel.a new one is about £50 iirc.

Yes he seen you Si the same day,mentioned it to me last night.

Wellington and Tiverton is a nice run.could meet in the services at Tiverton junction and take a blast up the Barnstaple link rd.

turbo dynamics will recon a stock tub for about £200 each iirc.dont bother with s/h tubs as its not worth the hassle if they are fitted and you then find out they are no good.make sure you get new oil lines fitted at the same time and make sure the water feeds and banjos are clear or its goodbye new tubs.

I e mailed the quad bov black 450bhp cars owner asking what mods it had to the engine and guess what.............................??????????????. Ive had no reply.perhaps he knows something we dont and doesnt want to share its tuning secrets. :rofl:

Ive worked in the motor trade for 17 years and have seen many people who buy a used vehicle with a warranty then find out when a fault occurs its not covered.The warrantys usually cover mechanical failure and not wear so if your engine throws a con rod your covered but if it gets low compression from bore/ring wear your out of pocket.Its a total farce as its not properly explained when the purchase is made.One particular vehicle a firm sold who i worked for had a common problem with syncro wear.So to help out the customer i had a snapped baulk ring and syncro cone which id let the warranty holding company examine.As it was broken and not worn theyd pay up.it was named the harth rug in the end!!.

Greg is right on the money.stock pistons and higher boost spells disaster and certain ring land failure.if your going for 500hp your certainly gonna be running some high boost and way past the reliability boundaries of stock items.

the specified oil by nissan is 10/30 or 15/40 synthetic.many people swear by 10/60 which is sold by traders on here and is a good alternative for high performance turbo cars.

that car is a ford classic if im not mistaken.

Have a nice day folks.wish i was going.im sat here now looking at my unfinished car and the rain is coming down in stair rods.another weekend wasted. :wack:

Hi Peeps,dont wont to be a larry let down but i wont make it on sunday.im really gutted.i havnt finished my boost controller fitment yet and when i was running the pipe through under the dash i noticed what looked like congealed anti freeze on the side of the heater box.so id rather not trek down to plymouth and possibly fook my car in the process after the money ive spent on the engine.i just hope someone has another dyno day this year.

yes too true bud.took 4 hrs to get there in the day but only 2 and a bit to get back at night.strictly adhering to the national speed limit of course. :D

Cheered me up no end going to a Cornish village and spotting 2 zeds in one day.Great place to own one as the A30 is a great rd and you hardly ever see any rozzers about.

been to Hayle in cornwall for the week.spotted a met red z with a carbon fibre spoiler on the rear and a silver tt.anybody on here.???.

just came back from hayle and reckon this same zed passed me at indian queens.deffo L300 ???.had to be the same car.grey and dirty.

Id ditch the tartan travel rug for sure dad.

your welcome lisa.hope it helps in getting your dyno figure where youd like it.

really hoping to make plymouth.off to Hayle next week for me hollys then got a week to get the profec b in and set up.

thats what i thought.start as you mean to go on has always been my motto.had less than 300miles on mine at the last dyno meet and she loved it.
