  1. It's my daily drive so only stood over night! It's fine when everything is up to temperature and no smoke after a run, just this little problem on startup or going a short distance... Went out again early evening while it was still light and everything fine! :confused:
  2. Started the Zed up today to drive as normal and on pulling away noticed some smoke pluming from the the right exhaust! It went away on changing into 2nd gear and was fine when warmed up... I noticed my Z started doing this a few weeks ago but now it's becoming a concern... When the car was parked up today after driving it I left it for an hour and started it again... No smoke on idel but when bliping the throttle to about 300rpm there was a slight blue haze which came from the drivers side exhaust which quickly soon went away... On leaving it idle again there was nothing but white smoke / condensation and she was fine again... My turbo's are only a few years old and are upgraded hybrids so guessing . hoping it not them! Would it by any chance be the PCV valves sticking??? The left passenger exhaust is fine and no smoke... Also but not all the time sometimes she will stall as if there is a vaccume leak somewhere... Very weird! Could this also be related to a PCV problem?? Many thanks for anyone who can help!
  3. Oooooh, the kinky b/\stard! That and a shed load of viagra involved as well!
  4. Really made uo for Iain!! :bow: :bow: :bow: This is what it's all about, getting it to a level your happy with... For all the enjoyment and smiles it brings to yourself and other people it's worth every bloody penny! Amen!
  5. Yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum! Just awesome!
  6. Just looked at another story about this on the net, apparently Clarkson and May will be in the Pit Lane! Can just see Clarkson now after an inciddent, "No, your rubbish! You can't drive!" :D
  7. Yes mate, I've been using a Blitz Sus for 5 Years now with no problems... The underneath is completely open to the elements and i've got a vented headlight panel... Works great for me! Must be the stainless steel mesh not absorbing the water so much...
  8. Yes! Loving the old Grifters! 3 Speed gears aswell! :D
  9. You never know someone has probably made there Ferrari look like a Z and stuck Nissan badges all over it! :D
  10. Happy Birthday Danny! Hope you have a good un! :duffer: :duffer:
  11. I've done it on mine but as above cause of the balance bar both Turbo's will read the same preassure... Say If i had a 1.2mm boost jet in one line and and 1.0 in the other you would still get one overall pressure cause of the balance bar...
  12. Good work dude! Glad your happy with the Samsung!
  13. Just seen this but yeah, give Richards Bros a call who have done all the engine and electronic modifications and upgrades and suspension repairs to my Z...
  14. One thing I do agree on is don't buy a Samsung Plasma.... They're not very reliable, leave that to Panasonic or Pioneer!
  15. No worries dude, you've just gotta make the trip down to Cornwall to come pick it up! In the mean time, this is one of the models you want... ;) http://www.comet.co.uk/shopcomet/product/413666/SAMSUNG-SM2232BW-22-inch-WIDESCREEN-TFT
  16. Pioneer use "True Black" for there Plasma panels and Samsung use 'Super Clear Panel' for there LCD's which has been designed to boost contrast ratio and improve colour reproduction. Samsung also make there panels for Sony and the own difference being Sony use there "Bravia Engine" to control there panels and Samsung use there "DNIe" engine which is actually superior to Sony's! Faster response time! Lots of manufacturers now have there own definition to real black now etc... Jonny
  17. He doesn't sleep on them but his duvet quilt is stuffed full of them rather than feather and down! :D
  18. Yep, as Mario says go for the Samsung! I sell these things and i always base it on product longgevity... Samsungs tend to have less of a faliure rate than the other makes and also boast a higher contrast ratio so you get deeper blacks and crisper whites... HP are now know to use Samsung panels so they too also boast there clear black technology... Best to go straight to the horses mouth though then you know it's been assembled by Samsung too! ;)
  19. It's all down to torque rather than BHP and Macca's 30.5Psi TT big turbo set up - a fooking shed load! Admitted the Trevor is a lighter car but no where near as much torque... Most guys on here running 1 bar are producing nearly as much torque as some Ferrari's or Lambo's... ;)
  20. A *****x mate.... Gutted for ya, hopefully the next job you get they will treat you a lot better.... Same with most jobs these days, we're just a bloody number...
  21. Bloody Shame.... RIP Boyd...
  22. My mate Scott will be doing it for me seeing as it's a bit fiddly to get to the back and he has those special long reach tools! :D I know when he's done them before on other cars he uses some kind of waterproof silicon i think but can't quiet remember seeing as it's been a while... I'll let you know how it goes next week anyway!
  23. SHIT! Only just seen this Dan and have already ordered one so should be here tomorrow... Thanks very much anyway dude but if the worst happens i'll give you a shout! Hope all is good...
