The Beast
Jasons Z is special, special in that it is HIS creation, some may like it or not,that is irrelevant , its whats inside his head thats transferd into what you see, some people are more creative and wish to show it in many different ways,some things on his Z i would not do/like, but i myself have had and done mods or whatever to many cars inc Zs, some have said "not for me" others "fook me thats great" both are in a way compliments as its individualism that counts, god knows how many times i have been to shows/meets with rows of Zs lined up and walk up and down noticing all the variations in the marque, have said many times that the chances of finding two indentical 300s is very rare, i think thats the beauty of the car, you can develop/change it into what you feel happy with the most, i say keep em coming, what ever the creation, lifes dull without it!

passenger in a ferrari 360
Took a 360 around Prestwold last june, nice, not as quick as some of my previous Zs, then a few months later took out the new GTR, way better, handles on rails, the way it corners is awesome, the pull from it never ends, the gearbox was bloody fantastic to use, and for around £50k the whole package is fantastic.By the way, Donna took out the Audi R8, very very good must say, she wants one!

IM gutted got eaten alive by a Fiat 20v turbo
Another one to watch for, Seat Cupra R, With a remap. A stock Z is toast, even a Z with more power will not touch it till over 80mph, I took one out, and if i had the money sure would get one, a lot of fun in such a small car. Tony

I have had 19.3psi but now struggling??
Oh dear, sooner rather than later , BANG BANG, POP!. No way should you be up to 19.3psi .As Jeff says, turn it down, or even off, then get on rollers/dyno pack, see what you can safely take it too,and within limits,hopefully you have not done any damage so far. Tony

BNP Voted to accept non whites into party
EU control is virtually causing a communist state across europe, year on year less and less freedom, no identity, no soverignty , political parties enforced by EU law can not represent the people to there best needs. If a political party advocates non EU membership, non EU rule, non EU currency, non EU law, then to me thats a start to more sovriegn indentity freedom. Lab/Con/Lib will in the end fook it all up with going along with the EU machine/gravy train, the long process of reversing this has started, all be it slowly, eventually with minor political parties like the BNP, EDF,UKIP increasing there membership/votes then main stream parties HAVE to change otherwise they will one day wake up and its too late, history over time has shown this time and time again, Hitler in the early thirtys with the Nazi party, when they had no more than a 100 members new this, it was just a question of time, the German political main stream parties let there people down big time, they closed there eyes to the suffering, no bloody wonder people turned to the Nazi Party,they had no hope before hand, so what comes around goes around, "Hitler" A Warning From History (great book and series) shows this in a spectacular way. Far Right and Extreme Right will grow, year on year,an di s so all across europe(Northern Italy a good example) if you loose the faith/trust of the people ,watch out. I for one will never now vote for Lab/Con/Lib but i may/ will vote for EDF/BNP/UKIP becouse for me i feel at least my voice will be heard , a protest yes, but in the bigger picture it may/has to be done.

ford diesel problem
mmmmm, this may be related, maybe not, but diesel now contains 5% bio-diesel, thats a maximum,(so far!) and most if not all producers now add it.I was literally under the bonnet last week with a garage owner who has a fleet of Vauxhall diesels, all newish, seems to be having same probs of late as bigsimon, he believes his probs are due to the fuel, luckily he has his own kit and sets timming up, new fuel pumps(they seem to wear out faster now)and defo new fuel filters, then alls ok for about 7-10k then same again, costing him a shed loads in consumables, he first realised a problem with fuel filter clogging up with some type of grey/black gunk, then cars smoking and knocking bad when cold, some vehicles were down on power too. Reminds me a bit of Shell and there bog ups, off loading the UK with experimental Optimax,(the stuff abroad was different and better!) caused probs over here i remember till problem sorted(they denied it for a long time) Tony

Fuel Stink on Start-up from Cold
Also check the fuel regulator closely, i had one with a small leak where the seam seal is, on the body itself, and it was to the rear so could not see it at first. Tony ps, do you have the braided fuel lines kit.
