cant work out the point of the plastic 'lunchbox' :confused: maybe its a sort of water deflector from below. those filters are filthy mate - it looks like a donkey's jizzed over it all :p get em changed and you'll surely notice a difference

:cool: :cool:

**** it i'll do it anyway ;) complete with some 555s and a new chip too i think bloody heap of metal will appreciate it one of these days :rant:

thanks for the constructive comments guys (read constructive as "spend even more money on your Z"). its been a tought decision to make, after taking a look at the financial situation and the fact I already spent £2k on her over the last two months and the fact im still out of work :( ...

ah i misread the spiel at the start - i thought it said VQ45

nah JD = John Dixon - he knows his stuff when it comes to eproms. i went from stock chip to JWT then to JD. he's on here somewhere (actually thats a lie cos its his birthday so he's probably in a gutter somewhere :p )

FFFfffffffaaacckkkk!! is that the engine thats in the R390?

:( rain + autobox + roundabout + 300bhp = disaster waiting to happen

i rented it a week ago - not as good as the first one but some pretty funny stuff in there, and pretty sick stuff too :hurl: did you see in the special features of the first one that giant human mousetrap game they did - absolutely brilliant!!!

Happy Birthday matey :duffer:

:rofl: he was hilarious!

:D job done

good luck mate - and the best thing is you can pop downstairs and get some councelling to keep you in tip top mental shape

:( hope everything's ok. good luck Jay!

did the woman have black uniform on and was the focus she was driving white with red and yellow stripe down the side and blue flashing lights on the top? :p

get your money back immediately mate. reason im saying this (on top of what everyone else has said) is that im facing the same problem and am looking at stumping up £2-3k for engine+turbo rebuild. ive had the car for over 4 years and spent well over £10k on it - THATs being attached to it. there's plenty more Zs out there. he should be putting in 10/40 anyway :nono:

good move Pete - you can park up with 'the boys' again! :D

:rofl: :rofl: :D

damn you James Funge for coming up with such a great idea!

congratulations Dave! :duffer: i know that months and months of education can really do your head in, especially if you are working as well. a mate of mine who is a network admin had a go at the Cisco stuff but gave it up, lol. you'll pi$$ over the last quarter of the course mate im sure of it.

:p

i handed my Z to ZWorX for a PCV swap and compression test (been getting blue smoke more and more recently :( ) and the results came back ranging from 120 to 140 although i dont know which cylinders are which. ive driven her for about 60 miles since the PCV swap and the smoking problem is all but gone (from two 30-mile long journeys i only got one puff of blue smoke near the end of each under decelleration whereas it used to be on and off nearly all the time, idle, acc. dec. you name it) but im not breathing a sigh of relief at all yet. car's done about 90,000 miles. Mickey told me that the turbos are slow to spool up which I agree with - Ive not been happy with the performance of my Z for a few months now at least and with the mods ive had done ive ironed out most problems (eg. my old clutch was crap so i have a brand new RPS in, new zorst, new Profec E01, etc.). the bottom end has recently been rebuilt too, along with VVT springs. and Mick thinks that injector 1 is faulty. ive been quoted a realistic price for engine rebuild and turbo refurb with 360 degree b/bs. question is, is it worth spending the money? [a very generalised question but i want to know people's thoughts]

welcome to the club mate :) did i read that right? 650rwhp?? :shock: most of us can only dream of that - the prices for parts and mods over here is sky high compared to USA.

lol check the time (and date) of his post ;)

does anyone know which insurance companies will let a second driver build their own no claims on a car? my girlfriend is trying to get her first car and the only decent ones come with too high insurance. also is anyone in the midlands selling a little car in good condition? ;)
