Another doolz question
2 mafs allows the ecu to measure more air into the engine, the standard maf is good for around 500 bhp ish so any further and you need either 2 or a map sensor which replaces it Mike

flow rates?
front mounts are fine as long at the rest of the cooling elements of your car have been upgraded, the border one i had was not sat flat, it was more like a v setup which allowed air to pass to the radiator, same with the hks one. has to be said i have had 2 zeds with fmic and never had any issues and i think when you get above a certain level of power and i mean a very high level ie over 600-700 bhp then you would need to go front mount but anything less and an upgraded sidemount would be more than sufficiant, as its been said macs is still running side mounts and near on 600 bhp with no issues :)

MOT on an early 95 model decatted.
i was told that after 91 or something like that if it didnt have a cat on the car whether it passed emisions or not it would automatically fail? i had to put a cat on my skyline to get them to pass it even though it passed the emisions?

find me a nice tuned slicktop
all depends on how much it goes for at auction etc you would be better speaking to jurgen to get some better costings and he can bid on it if you want it Mike

find me a nice tuned slicktop
it is very expensive at the moment in japan, i had a quick look and theres not much around. heres two which are interesting, one is just what your after bar removing the rear wing and the other is a 2+2 but again a very good spec http://page9.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/k111268754 http://page9.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/k116452633 Mike

Startrek - review (may contain spoilers)
Went to see this on friday and it was a good film, not great but as a trekkie i felt it was missing some of the core things which made startrek. I suppose thay have made this to be more commercial to appeal to the general public and i think from that sense it works but i left feeling like they could have done some small things in it to make it better? Also was looking forward to seeing simin pegg as scottie but he was only in it for 10-15 mins at the end!! i also thing the plot was a little vague but overall well worth a watch Mike

chelsea robbed?
i watched the penalty claims and none of them were cast iron pens but over a game and having 3 or 4 of them you would have thought a 50/50 would have gone their way?? dont agree with you about ronaldo iain, yes he used to be terrible and i would have given him away but when you look at him now he gets kicked to f*ck most games and fouled all the time and gets nothing especially penalties!! feel sorry for him but his reputation preseeds him, cry wolf and all that ;) also i dont know how you can say chelsea deserved it, over the 2 legs i think it was said on sky that barca had 70% of the ball!! Face it the best two teams in europe are in the final and thats the way it should be :)

very late plate zed
aye unless they have messed up your stuck with a k plate or older bud Mike
-
very late plate zed
exactly but not many
-
very late plate zed
your right, a car thats under 10 years old to be imported needs a model report and the 300zx does not have one hence why no 99 spec ones have ever been over here but thats just for customs, once it passes you then register it with the dvla and its them who now and again cock up and put the plate on the car with the import date as the manufacturer build date LOL
-
very late plate zed
its nothing to do with jersey etc now and again the dvla simply make the mistake of issueing the reg plate of an imported car as the date of import not the date of manufacturer, ive seen a few skylines, supras etc with 03, 04 regs etc
