running bov-less - help for people considering it!
i would never deliberately do this to the Z tho if im running on full chat with the windows down sometimes I can hear a faint t-t-t-t- of the compressor surge straight after my BOVs dump but i guess the springs are not set quite correctly.

Looking to buy a 300zx
dont let the fact that you'll need an import worry you too much. some insurance companies will charge more, but most will (and quite rightly should) not charge any more than a UK spec. trying to get some insurance companies to understand the difference between the Z31 and the Z32, and imports and UK specs, etc. can be a bit frustrating at times though :headvswal ...and welcome and good luck (from a guy who has stuck on a bodykit and messed around under the hood ;) )

Engine out - what to upgrade/replace?
ok steady on there im not looking for a 4-figure bhp (although it would be nice ;) ) i tried the dual intake but the engine struggled to idle properly so i decided to remove it and since then its been fine - my current bhp probably doesnt warrant the dual intake but i may consider it way in the future. New loom is a good suggestion, I may consider that. I have Z1 sidemounts which Im happy with at the moment, and should be able to deal with a moderate amount of power. Any more for any more?

Manual v Automatic
^ what he said. manual conversions are a common thing to do/have done. ZedWorld on here provide this service. ive had a manual conversion and to be honest i didnt notice any specific difference in output as such, but i found the manual far more enjoyable to drive :duffer:

fleabay to remove forced P&P charges
true but its better than nothing i suppose - we'll have to wait and see what the maximum amounts are! no doubt ridiculously small!

fleabay to remove forced P&P charges
...lifted from another forum - looks like enough people got p***ed off with ebay not allowing sellers to charge any P&P so they're going down the 'maximum P&P' route. :death: bout fookn time. "In 2009 a mandatory free Postage & Packaging (P&P) policy was introduced in categories where excessive postage charges were a problem. Although buyers have responded positively, some sellers indicated this is having a negative impact on their listings and asked for alternative options to prevent excessive postage. This is especially when listing in the auction style format with a low starting price. SELLER NEWS Therefore, to help drive further sales, the existing free P&P policy will be removed and replaced with maximum limits to Postage & Packaging charges from 8 February 2010. Buyers continue to respond positively to free Postage & Packaging. Sellers who offer it on their fixed price listings will continue to receive a boost in search results."

Why men are happier than women
Men Are Just Happier People. Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. You can never be pregnant. Car mechanics tell you the truth. The world is your urinal. You never have to drive to another gas station restroom because this one is just too icky. You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. Same work, more pay. Wrinkles add character. People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them. New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet. One mood all the time. Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. You know stuff about tanks and engines. A ten-day vacation requires only one suitcase. You can open all your own jars. You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness. Your underwear is £8.95 for a three-pack. Three pairs of shoes are more than enough. You never have strap problems in public. You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes. Everything on your face stays its original color. The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades. You only have to shave your face and neck. You can play with toys all your life. One wallet and one pair of shoes -- one colour for all seasons. You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look. You can 'do' your nails with a pocket knife. You have freedom of choice concerning growing a mustache. You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes. No wonder men are happier.

Intermittent problem with site
I'm still getting this problem - seems to be when I moved from Maxthon to Firefox but I'd be surprised if that had anything to do with it. Anyone else having this problem?

Engine out - what to upgrade/replace?
Im starting to think about the next steps for power. I'm happy with my engine internals at the moment (555s, Wiseco pistons, etc.), and so my question is, what 'external' engine mods would you do with the engine out? Im saving up for some turbos (possibly JWT 530BBs, HKS, sort of middle-of-the-road power), and Im considering those manifolds that keep knocking about on fleabay. ...i suppose Nismo engine mounts would be one, any others? (not just power mods :) )
