Cant you get your Mum to write a letter saying you had a tummy upset to excuse your abcense :biggrin:

I personally prefer to swap pumps out now as a new item is very cheap to buy and for the hour or so it takes to fit its a quick job and saves any future issues,Full on pump failure is rare if im honest,but after a build or any performance mods,a phrase using the words ship and tar spring to mind.AEM units are good for the money as are walbro,Bosch are very good but can be expensive.The stock unit is very capable but at 25years old its done millions of revolutions !!

Yeah we shall see,not long now !!!! :oops:

Hi Andrew,most common is high impedance in the coil causing bad spray pattern or they go open circuit and dont trigger at all.

No if the injector is dead thats the end of it,search up the dremel method it does work,youll need a long screwdriver to undo the cap screws,give them a tap first to free them,dont go wild or you will distort the heads and the screwdriver wont undo them.

Is the spark plug wet on no 1 cylinder,may be the injector itself,seeing more and more of this now.

Having drove GTX fitted cars and GT turbo cars id say for the money the X are not that amazing,I have a 621 hp car now with breather mods and the 675s and it kicks ass,the last GTX 600 hp car i drove was rather laggy even though the owner had spent huge amounts on Ash massives,plainair pipes ect

if its stock i can send you one Clint ?

Colour Change done properly id estimate anywhere from 2.5k as a rough guide,some places may even quote 4k for a job of that magnitude

He has a rusty hole,saw him last weekend and he couldnt keep his hand out of is gusset !

Anychance you can do it tonight,Poor Neil wont get a wink of sleep if you dont :lol:

Trust you too spot that Si :lol:

Just a few quid spent then on cars,choice colour that fezza,wont be too many Aston dealers around Jeff,looks like youll be busy on those :cool2:

situations like this i just run it up off the floor,any wobbles soon become visible.A Diff issue will drone usually,drop some oil out and take a look at it,the first part that comes out is the best tell tale as to the health of the component be it a gearbox or a diff.Check the rear cv joint on the prop also for excess movement

Well done our Joshy :gunsmilie:

if you get a 95 plenum the grinding isnt needed.Youll need a die grinder otherwise with a carbide bit.Thats what i use anyway.

Unless your really wanting new bushes then locking collars are the way to go,simple to fit and way cheaper.Its very rare for vehicles to have bushes where the subframe meets the body,i can only guess Nissan were looking for comfort when they designed it that way.Youll not even notice the difference if im honest when the collars are fitted apart from the loose feel at the rear will be gone.

The hardest part will be compressing the valves,youll need to make a tool up to do it,i used to do many cars years ago like this but they were much easier to work on than a 300zx.

Anybody that missed it i wouldnt panic,all i thought after was im never getting that hour back,was like laurel and hardy do car tuning.

im afraid its not good news,as the turbos pressure is equalised in the plenum by the balance bar you have one turbo trying to feed 6 cylinders hence the 0 reading,And the fact its been standing points to a seized turbo even more so.To ascertain which one cable tie a rubber glove on the outlet pipe from each turbo and start the car and rev it slightly.If it balloons its boosting and if not its seized.

Its a peach but who would buy it over here,shame really.Id be scared to take it out !! imagine somebody damaging it :thumbdown:

That white slickie sold for 13k landed would be around 18 with taxes.12500km from new though !!

much cleaner look now,my mate did this to his 325d and it does suit them better.No AC Schnitzer goodies yet Jeff ?

Youll never stop that rusting welding in metal like that im afraid,needs to be primed before its fitted with weld through primer like Wurth Zinc Heil or similiar if you want it to last.

Be on route to blighty soon for some Powerzed loving,I know the landed cost here but im unable to divulge that info !
