  1. Well if he's in ^^^, so am I. Got to keep the Welsh end up! Would be nice to see the Pentroof Z in the show too. http://www.candyrun.tv/tunnelrungallery/index2.html
  2. The 17-year-old reptile is one of a pair of Nile crocodiles kept by the Kaohsiung zoo. Well we were all tw@ts at that age. It was just a hormone thing :D

    If you don't mind me asking how much would it cost for a full adjustment by the garage who did this for you? I was recently quoted £75 by a local performance specialist for setting camber, caster and toe. I reminded him that only the toe was adjustable and the price dropped to £25 :rofl:
  4. No probs, I'm back in work tomorrow so I'll be checking in here more often :rofl: . Looking forward to seeing the outcome of this one!
  5. Thanks guys. It would be really useful to have the dimensions.
  6. You need to check the resistance from pin 23, on the loom side, to ground. It'll be less than 1 Ohm if it's a total short. The previous owner fooked about with the loom until the cows came home. I hate that coont :mac1: :rofl:
  7. Well I wouldn't kick it out of my garage. Fantastic car/spec. I bet the M5 owner had a shock!

    NO! It's a shame that it's such a drive to the South, otherwise us Gogs would be at every meet :cry:
  9. Check that it isn't shorted to ground like mine was! I got a code 34 after doing exactly what you've done. That's why I put the resisitor inside the ECU in the end and chopped the short-circuited wire on the outside of the ECU (Pin 23).
  10. Cheers guys, I bid on some Brembos with rotors but got outbid in the dying seconds. I tried to snipe it by VNCing to a more reliable MAC in work but couldn't manage it in time - mainly due to a nagging bird LOL!
  11. Has anyone tried the 320mm discs from an EVO6 on a Z? I believe someone on here has adapted the calipers
  12. Fook! This is sad - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/caliper-cover-bmw-benz-nissan-disc-brake-uk-skyline-R32_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33563QQihZ011QQitemZ320100428294QQrdZ1

  14. Used to play that Stunt Racer for hours on an ST.
  15. PSML :rofl:. There used to be a 'Road Kills' thread but it disappeared one day?
  16. I once got a Fidanza flywheel from Smithy and we discovered that the ring gear had been put on in reverse :eek: . Smithy sent me an RPS one as a replacement at no extra charge :bow:
  17. Using optos is a great idea. I can see that one is controlling A15 but isn't the other connected to OE?
  18. IIRC doesn't the 'dual map' chip just use the switch to address the upper memory bank by changing the MSB address line? If so then can't you use a bigger 8-bit EPROM than a 27512 or do they become 16-bit after that?
  19. I'm sure I've still got a known-good CAS but it's bearing is a little noisy. Would do for testing though. Shame though cos I was in Preston yesterday. I'll have a look in the garage if you think it'd be any use??
  20. Sounds like you have a break in the loom from the ECU to the connector which plugs into the det sensor loom (the short lead which goes under the plenum). I'd meter the wires from the ECU to the det sensor loom first. If it's open circuit then you could either rewire it or trace/repair it. If the det sensor and/or loom is duff too, I'd put the resistor inside the ECU. Can't remember what the pin numbers are now though.
  21. Wide butts America?
  22. They've been trying to make a decent Vector since 1969. I wonder if it'll actually sell this time?
  23. I think he's waiting for midnight so he can go back to 1985 :rofl: But seriously I feel sorry for that man - he does need some help :cry:
  24. If you can stretch the budget, then I believe a boost controller is better because it reduces the boost 'spikes' which can cause detonation for a short period of time when the throttle is opened quickly. Also in the wet, it's useful to lower the boost right down so you don't over-cook it when exiting corners!
  25. Landing in a microlight in a cross wind isn't quite as graceful!
