Actually Mr Turbo it was Hartlepool that hung the monkey. So I would avoid the place if I were you,I hear they still have the rope :rofl: Paul

Timmy what kind of "roids" did you have? Were they steroids? I remember you got some cream from the doctors to shrink them anyway. :tongue: Paul

I can just picture you two tucking into some jelly and ice cream with your little party hats on then playing postman's knock with each other. Enjoy yourselves :tongue: Paul

smear dogs**t everywhere and you wont smell the vinegar anymore Paul

:bow: :bow: Hail the master of mayhem returns :bow: :bow:

Theres a good chance something hasnt been put back properly. Possibly some of the vaccum hoses or electrical connectors. Its a good idea to park your car next to another Z and compare under the bonnet, its very easy to put one of those many pipes back in the wrong place when re-fitting all the bits n bobs.

Where did you get the rad hose fixed? was it a mate or a garage that did it? You could always take it back but you know they are going to say its nothing to do with what they done. PPS is a bodyshop/ICE place and its a long long way from you so I would try to find someone local on the forum to look for ya. Paul

Mac its fine, remember its the exhaust wheel housing at the other end that glows. The compressor housing stays much cooler, thats why its alluminium.

No problem mate. And we finaly know yes it is chipped but its a mystery chip :eek: no stickers or anything probably fitted in Japan. Paul

Wouldnt that be Chinese spec :tongue: Speaking of which, I might just have one tonight :dance: Paul

Well I have worked with them for a bit longer than that and they are great people, very freindly and i think Japans a fantastic place to go....but.. When I was in Japan they do refer to us as "gaigin" (not a clue how to spell it :D) which i think roughly means 'western foreigner'. Sometimes when your on the train if you sat next to an old lady who is asleep (most do nap on the trains) it was hilarious sometimes when she woke up and realised she was sitting next to a "round eye" they would jump up and couldnt run away fast enough LOL. Also got refused entry to loads of bars, they would just stop you and say "Japanese only" now could you imagine what would happen if the reverse of that happened over here? Also had some fun with these old japanese blokes who had a little protest outside the hotel about foreigners being there. They would chant stuff but if you went up and grinned at them they would just shut up and look at their feet untill you got passed. Also there was an old couple outside the museum at Hiroshima who looked at me as though I dropped the bloody bomb. But why didnt any of this upset me? Because I really dont give a damn what anyone thinks, im English and white I cant change that and I wouldnt want to if I could so I found their little quirks amusing if anything. I guess that people are just generally softer these days and get upset to easily. Paul

loads on the rides section. look at ChrisC, DaveW and a few others i cant remember off the top of my head. Paul

Yes I like those Cortina things :D Paul

:o surely nobody would ever buy stock wheels though when you could get something much nicer for that money

White, manual, leather is the top spec for a Z unless your a complete buffoon :D I would say 5k plus Paul

Well i hope it never goes out of fashion to shout abuse at short footballers. Im not letting Dennis Wise off that easily.

That is just awesome it makes people who havent got round to engine bling like me feel guilty :D Paul

YEAH!, I lost a fiver to Timmy Turbo on that pool table one night last year. And I want it back :mad: Paul :duffer:

I think they are crap a kid at work spent loads getting the black trims on his impreza colour coded silver to match the car then he gets rid of a perfect nice shiney silver bonnet and sticks a stupid black carbon one on :confused: Paul

Well at least V Spec is a Nissan mark unlike the Type-R badges that a certain member stuck on his 300zx :rofl: Paul

At least it was turned into something usefull :D

Read this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7900709336&category=38786 it sounds just like an article from Max Power :tongue: Paul

There are a few people on here who can do you a chip of your choice. I know some jap chips can be fueled for 100 ron fuel and can run lean with our pump p*ss. If the car runs fine without detting then its probably ok, otherwise make sure you use optimax or super. look on the ecu and on the chip itself sometimes there is a sticker on it to tell you what type it is. Paul

Dont worry Mr Cadpaul i will keep ya right, im going down on friday and pitching the tent like i did last year, there might be a few heading from the north east this year. I want to set off on friday morning so we can get sorted and enjoy the friday night. We always get a half hour break at Thirk as well while a certain member folds his pyjama's and packs his slippers :D Paul

Im going for it. Ive got a funny feeling my lucks in because im through to the final stages of a Readers Digest prize draw, they have even sent me a key with the letter that could open the door to a brand new car or i could win ten grand cash.
