Hi Alan,it could be number of things.to test the clutch put it into 5th give the car a mild rev and let the clutch out if it stalls the clutch is prolly ok,you may have a hydraulic or box issue.It does sound like the clutch is dragging if im honest though mate.

A good mechanic would never have refurbed the top end and not touched the pistons,the engine wears as a whole and each component that is critical to sealing and creating good compression will naturally wear together ie valves and piston rings,because of this the engine works ok,as soon as you alter this ie refurb the heads you then put extra load on the piston rings,top end rebuilds are always a bad idea,likewise honing the bores with new rings but not touching the heads is equally as bad.3K to fix it is mad !! I do the whole engine for a little over that.

Im eating a pizza draped in jalapenos and washing it down with Rough cider,feckin darts or what !! a perfect saturday night !!

Yeah WAITING ! this thread is pointless without pics Dave :yes:

You give up on the 350z brake conversion then mate,im on my third set of discs now !!

E Bay is rife with Nigerian scammers,my mate had an i phone 4s for sale and a guy "bought" it.sent false paypal payment e mails saying the money was paid.when he checked his account no money had gone in.Sold it a second time and guess what ? same thing,buyer sent fake paypal e mails stating that once the item is sent the money will then show in his account and that is was a new anti fraud paypal incentive.He even after nnot sending the phone got a fake email from the president of paypal !! its hilarious the levels these people go to.

That little cretin needs to be dragged out into street,shackled and walked whilst being pissed on constantly till he arrives at the Police station where he should be charged with treason and pissed on some more !! how dare he run down our forces my piss is steaming !!

Seems cheap to me when you see this,at least you get a shell with it http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HKS-2-8-HIGH-DECK-RB-ENGINE-NISSAN-SKYLINE-GTR-1100-BHP-/220873891615?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item336d1c1f1f

Mate you in no way need dual maff for your set up,550 ish is usually when thats needed.If and only if you get stuck a Q45 maf conversion would get you by,im pushing nigh on 500flywheel horsepower on a stock maf set up with no probs whatsoever.

Thats the same hoist i have,got it at Makro 4 years ago for £79.99 on special,cheap as imho.

The steering is speed sensitive so to give more feel at high speed and enable easier parking,ie a light feel when needed.

Hes insane,no seriously he is :yes: bloke is woofing nuts !:biggrin: i do secretly hope he keeps the car,i feel quite attatched to it after all the miles ive racked up in it.Its tried to kill me on several occasions so i have the upmost respect for it.

shirt lifters are shit imho,the zed stock shift is close enough as it is and feels precise.How anyone thought it needed improving is beyond me tbh.

Get a 98 box new from z1.Its by far the cheapest and best bet.Martins car had one and it survived no probs.The 98 box had a revised 4th syncro i believe.

911 has gone bud,i drove that and it was fast as fook,not as scarey as the zed though.Porker felt planted and rapid,the zed is crazy and untamed.It squirms and bucks when you push it and it feels lmost of the time like its trying to kill you.Mental car.I feel privealiged to have drove it

cheers Martin.i will look into that.hopefully there is something suitable

Does anybody here know of any jobs from home that are not scams ? my wife who has arthritis is looking for a job she can do part time.She has kept peoples books years ago etc but isnt sure on current systems but could easily learn if needed.Any suggestions guys are gratefully appreciated.

they are not the same size i can assure you,ball bearings need less lubrication,compare the restrictor hole to the stock lines.it should be way different.

here it is,the exact one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Remote-Oil-Pressure-Gauge-T-Piece-1-8-NPT-095-/280778695166?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item415fb6e1fe

This is what i said a few posts ago !! youll need to relocate the switch.extend the wire along the crossmember,on the filterhead youll see a small bung,undo it and plumb the relocation kit in.i will find you a link to a kit ive used before,

No Probs matey we will get them on right :punk:

No mate its not,thats huge in turbo oil feed terms.Do you have shares in an oil company because your gonna burn oil quicker than Piper Alpha.The hole in the restictor is around a 16th of an inch so tiny.

Ive just priced up a gt600 tub kit from z1 which bolts straight up and comes with everything needed to fit including gaskets,oil lines,water hose and boost pipe and it comes to............... approx £1600 shipped, add £150 import and your around what you payed anyway.So in effect you saved nothing and caused yourself aggro faffing around making them fit :pinch:

Mate you better get those back off !! you shouldnt run ball bearing turbos without restrictors in the oil lines.The oil flow will overcome the seals and burn on the exducer wheel.You should have braided oil lines with a restictor that screws into the turbo.You remove the metal oil pipe on the passenger side and run the pipe straight from the blocks outlet,so you,ll need to relocate the oil switch to the plugged outlet on the oil filter tree.On the drivers side do NOT use the banjo as it has a restrictor in it,its marked with a "K"on its head.the oil line should screw into the block using a right angled adaptor.
