Lol am not comparing, am sayin how can he comment on MY experience/knowledge from one post on an Internet forum

LOL love how somebody av never met can comment on my knowledge/experience.

Came across plenty tyres that are distorted/split/cracked due to rubber coming away or the tyre being ran flat then re-inflated, just guess we don't use that word up this way? And no its never happened to me because I buy decent tyres.

I used to work on jurgens imports, his gtr blew "cruising past a car" at 60mph, in first I reckon. :laugh:

Ferrari f40, sheer madness

Am a tester and honestly never seen it, would have been taught av just never come across it or had it happen

What do you mean by delaminate? I've been in the trade over ten years and never heard of somebody "delaminating" their tyres? Think you been robbed mate

whats the crack with fuel prices then? how poor are us zed owners going to get?

always wondered how long it will be before somebody fits one to a z32 actually

my neighbor actually brags that she has never worked a day in her life, she's actually proud of the fact, thing is she has 3 daughters who have followed her example by having a kid and sitting at home while the boyfriend/husband does a hard days graft.

i didn't want to claim, i went to the jobcentre to look for a job and was told i couldnt see an advisor without making a claim, all i wanted to do was ask if they knew any agencies in newcastle that dealt with the oil+gas industry

happy birthday from me and your ex-motor :laugh::duffer:

I'm unemployed at the minute but they won't pay me jobseekers because I won't apply for jobs I'm trained to walk into, I left because I felt I needed a career change and they won't help me or even let me apply for jobs I'm not trained specifically for, whats the point in applying for jobs I don't even want to do anymore?! it's wasting my time and that companies time! useless.

i love how nobody has ever arsed about in their cars before......

I had to change one on the back of the nearside head not to long ago, wasn't too bad to do after getting the battery off

Spot on mate, sorry I didn't bring it over but after 18 hours on the road I seriously needed my bed :lol: had a play with an e46 m3 after setting the boost controller today and it didn't stand much of a chance like, zedworld said compared to standard the outlet of the hks turbos like a can of coke next to a 50p piece! :lol:

Emmmm I got from zedworld to Newcastle upon Tyne in just under 3/4 of a tank, mostly cruising but a couple of plays with my mate on his ninja

Me too, got mine back now so up for owt as long as there's a few days notice or even just a day

Btw what gear oil for for a tt manual? Havnt changed mine since buying the car so probably do with a change

:lol: "were" being the active word in that sentence

Yea they're decent lads, helpfull considering we were on the road for 18hours together! If it had been with anybody annoying they would have been left somewhere down south! :lol: felt sorry for the lad riding the ninja back though a bet his back is suffering today! :lol: was good to meet you and your "crew" too :lol: made us feel alot more welcome than the rest of the people that day that's for sure, you would have thought they were thinking we were there to rob them or something!

Cheers jeff al give it a week or so to see if it sorts itself out, and the 'crew' were just there because we had various things to drop off and collect so was cheaper to do it all in one day :lol:

Just warmed the car up and rev'd it hard enough to boost and there was a puff of smoke, could this mean just a sticky PVC valve?

Big thanks to zedworld for sorting me out with a fresh engine :clap::clap: also for sorting the boost leak out I didn't even know about and sussing that my ecu chip was too lean which am guessing led to my dead engine. Only problem I have now is the exhaust is smoking when I back off the throttle which I'm guessing worn turbo seals, can't seem to see any when it's on boost so don't think it could be pcv valves?(got my fingers crossed though!) it was fine before the engine died but don't think the old engine made enough oil pressure to get the oil past the seals. Jeff mentioned there was oil in the pipework but surely this should have cleared up after a 200mile drive home? Also after re-setting my boost controller to just under one bar the problem seemed to get worse, it doesn't smoke when driving normally but as soon as you give it a bit shoe and back off there's a blue mist

Tester should never rev the car hard, he only needs to raise the revs not put the pedal through the floor, emissions are tested at 2.5-3k, sounds to me like you have a bit of a w@nker of a tester to be honest, some testers will fail your car just for the simple fact they can and are never helpfull, another thing some testers havn't got a clue about is that if your car is an import the emissions aren't tested as normal imports have to be tested as pre-cat, I.e. Before cats were fitted to cars, the year of the car doesn't matter
