Heater help
My 'def' window isn't working and is a real pain, i have to keep wiping the windscreen while driving. Everythings working but won't blow up to the windscreen, just the centre and by the feet (changing between 'def' and 'auto'). Maybe just a flap not opening or something. Before i start ripping into it can anybody help, had same problem ?

loud squeaking from front suspension
If you've got solid upper adjustable control arms you MUST fit solid lower tension rods. I didn't at first, lots of squeaking from time to time. Removed to check them and one had spilt, not good. On usa web sites some state lower must be fitted with upper. IMO a must, no squeaking since and peace of mind.

What have people done with?
top cd radio in the bottom boost controller and timer. Blanking plates from 'zcentre', then cut whatever into them or drill extra switches, really good. Also does a flip lid one i think, put change in and stuff.

Big problems
'White-zed' quote sounds possible, personally i would take to GOOD tyre/wheel alignment, then if not better get someone knowledgable to check the rear area
-
Big problems
Sounds like rear camber to me, standard they do adjust abit, i would get all wheels set-up at a tyre place.

Thats what i had lots of smoke, and i mean clouds of it mainly at traffic lights, funny now but not then...! Got new 360 deg ones from smithy, isn't it lots of smoke on idle the seals, and they don't give up on the 360 ones. Correct me if i'm wrong.

NZR Speedboats who has one?
I've got a 19ft speedboat (or should i say powerboat) great fun. Sits 6 people but you only want 2/3 for speed. V6 2lt 175hp triple carb 2 stroke sounds sweet. You can just go for a power run or ski, drag someone behind in a tube, i go to the i o w a few times in the summer with the kids. If you go on the sea just remember it can be the best and worst place to be (weather!) I topped 70 mph before but not for the faint heated, you have a watch for odd waves bits of wood etc.
