  1. When its v cold the supports often fail to hold the tailgate, I guess because the air inside is less dense. Pete
  2. No Stu's right, selling up doesnt mean leaving the forum.
  3. Is it too far away to post the "What BHP will you make at Thor?" thread? :D I got 348BHP (and 403, 397, etc ;) ) at the SE one @ 12psi, now running 15psi (and a grounding kit!!!) so I'd hope for 375/380 - not far off 400BHP :cool:;). I've got stock turbos, intercoolers, injectors. It certainly feels a lot quicker at 15psi than 12, especially at higher speeds. Pete
  4. LOL... Latvian one ;)
  5. Have a look round our own traders section, Chris@GetGReddy and Smithy can get you all sorts off that list ;)
  6. Brakes! :cool: I've only heard great things about the uprated options.
  7. Cheers for the compliments Matty and Rich :cool: Paul - if you want any info, specific pictures etc of mine :cry: drop me an email: nospampeter_edgar@hotmail.com (lose the "nospam bit, its for spam avoidance purposes ;) ) Yeah buying from this forum will give you a history of the car whilst its been owned which gives some peace of mind not available usually. Condition is the big factor, not transmission type - each have their own performance and driveability aqdvantages. Cheers and good luck Pete
  8. Ahh reet, yeah I remember, yeah Halfords or Nissan?
  9. I think they're the universal ones (anyone confirm?), if so they cost 50p'ish each from any motor factors or most petrol stations.
  10. Cheque on its way :)
  11. Should only run for a couple of seconds at most, if it even starts. Funny this happened on mine and I thought it had been bypassed for some reason (immobiliser?) but when I tried it again a few months later to install fuel filter and braided kit it stalled straight way as it should :confused: Got the right fuse? ;) Pete
  12. Respect Faisal :cool: That is turning into a beast! Any clues as to the amount its all costing? :eek: ;)
  13. Hehey I bought that for my nephew for xmas - £3.99, great fun!! :D:D
  14. No nor am I :confused: However autos cost £2.5k more when new :dance: Gotidude - mine's for sale :):cry: Pete
  15. Yeah it works because your leading wheel hits the bump sooner than it would if you drove straight, 2 wheels together, so it lifts the front up earlier.
  16. PMSL!!! Wales is a country not a small town ;) [uS accent] "Ahhh you live in England - do you know the Queen?" [/uS accent] ;)
  17. LOL Cheers JB, we're not quite sure if it's hers yet, so I dunno about the rumours being dispelled ;):D:D
  18. Do it yerself ya lazy fooker :D:D:D:D You know you want to ;)
  19. Yeah I've got that same rear one, it fits fine and the quality and sturdiness surprised me considering the price, budget a fair amount of postage mind - mine was just under £30 IIRC for only the rear.
  20. On the sun blocker flap down thing? Then it can be hidden ;)
  21. Wow!! That is excellent! :cool: Does he do this work for a living, or a one-off favour? I reckon he could make a fair few sales on here! Pete
  22. LOL Seriously Mark?? Is there anything this mod doesn't improve!!? I've actually noticed my tyres are wearing less and the paintwork is looking much shinier :D:D
  23. Alongside the RHS of the balance bar there are black metal fuel and air lines bolted to the plenum. These are what the fuel line kit replaces, however there are also metal and rubber air lines attached, so when you take off the hard fuel lines the air ones come with it leaving a gap. You need a length (about 18" IIRC) of 4mm silicon hose to bridge the gap created Ahh found a pic: I've ringed the stuff thats replaced by the kit. The red blob on the FPR is where this extra silicon hose attaches, the other end goes down by the battery and is obvious when you are looking at the car and following the stock hoses ;) You can see the hard piping, the air bit being the small section on the bottom. Pete
  24. Oh and you will need a bit of 4mm silicon hosing anyway whilst fitting the fuel line kit, as the hard fuel/air lines are bypassed and taken off. And change your fuel filter whilst fitting the kit too - its silly not to ;)
  25. Drop him a PM, he'll have some. The fuel lines - yep its a kit for the 300ZX, the right length pre-braided hoses with shiney end bits and a shiny spacer. Really is an excellent quality sturdy piece of kit :cool: And no I'm not on commission :D Here's pic (before I McSprayed my engine bay:D ) Pete
