  1. Nice one Jay,had the same on my 24v Cosworth from there ,did a great job too,did you have there own make"COBRA" or did you go for RAGE.looks like Rage to me:)
  2. Turbo High-Tech Performance mag took a stock 350z to 6 different Dyno's in one day,they were curious as to how much various dynos differd,results were; DYNO HP TQ DYNAPACK 249.4 242.8 DTS 257.6 556.5(rollers not acountin for gear reduction DYNOJET(WIN)235.8 227.8 DYNOJET(DOS)243.7 237.2 CLAYTON 265.7 240.6 SUPERFLOW 228.9 226.6 They concluded that "no one dyno is better than the other,you should when upgrading/modding use the same dyno,what is important is the Gains made per addition,it should not take a back seat to peak output" So,on this basis,all those that were at the previous RR will get a different reading,and all those that have not used the Dynopack will allso get different readings.Will be an interesting outcome:) Tony
  3. I asked when declaring what i have,just incase,reply was you can do anything to it on the policy you have,but if fitting Nos,add 30% to premium,Insurance Factory:(
  4. Worth a look,just incase,better safe than sorry;)

  6. Sorry Topless it can,mine did,same as above,could not find the leak,everything tight,was starting to get well pissed off,was getting worse,then just by chance i checked with hand while car running under the FPR and there it was,by now pissing out all down between plenum:eek: took it off,and where the folded metal join was it had been leaking,i applied some liguid metal and built it up a bit to get me by,got another of AndyZ and all ok,this was on Petes Z,The join on the FPR is a press join not a weld,so in time with heat etc it had seperated slightly.One for the scrapbook:) Tony
  7. The problem with that Mac is that old sayin"Nothing ever goes to plan"as in life,anything can happen,but was talking today to the guy who set mine up etc,a secret mod:D ,but i think the RR is to close to sort it,and my SAFC2 is still unwired,and i have to re set the EVC5 as it did not like being unplugged for a couple of weeks and lost its self a bit,so only running 12psi,but i think i may get a good showing still,ahhhh if only xmas had not got in the way:D I even bought a new Camcorder specialy for the event,so between me and others will be plenty of film:) Shame yours will not be there,still,allways another RR on the horizon,and Santa Pod maybe;) Tony

  9. Who put the same filter back on,:eek: you or a garage:confused: if when you have changed the filter and followed all of above and its back to normal,cut the old filter open to see whats in there,hopefully just a thick sludge due to the oil cooking,best check.Tony
  10. I would get them to photograph the cambelt work as its done,then you can see its done,just incase he may be telling you any old crap so as you buy it,maybe he could give you a list of all these other 300zx owners that he sold too,you could check on a few to see if things went ok after them buying(would not think for one minute he will but i could be wrong)If he agrees to none of it then walk!!Tony
