no i meant the other type of corrosion. a blinged bonnet would be cool just high maintenance. and lacquer would peel very quickly with the heat

TOO sloooooww

could have corrosion but a white crusty film wouldn't have the same effect LOL

quote from the owner :cry:

being done quite a lot in honda circles too

thanks everybody for all the birthday wishes. im going out tonight into bournemouth for a couple of pints. so should be a good night. cheers gaz

awww shucks! thanks everybody. :)

hello and welcome to the club. i have an addiction to cars and engines too its just my wallet doesnt share the same feelings,

right so i shouldnt need to spend out more ££ then LOL

is this a nessesity? i havent got adjustable drop links on mine:nelson: might it cause my clunking

hi im in bournemouth too. now theres a garage i trust with my car for its mot . they are very reasonable and explain what and if anything needs looking at and i trust them not to rag my car up the carridgeway!! the garage is AUTOCARE in parkstone. bh12 4nd. say you got recommended by gary with the black 300 as i have mine done there every year.

i have a fidenza flywheel on mine and i can say it does rev more freely. the comparison video was a non turbo too :)

WIZBIT oh my god i had mentally blocked that out ARRRGH!!!

hello buddy hows things??

sorrydidnt mean it as a harsh comment! jut thinking its probably stronger then some of the z chassis out there:x::rofl:

bloody hell!! you could use it as a jacking point too :)

i know the feeling.. i can feel an ant with a hard on when driving down the road in mine!

you havent bent the clutch fork have you? was it a heavy clutch? how does it feel now light/spongy? does it still bite or does it now slip

you can get cam rattle this is due to the camshaft springs becoming weak. there is one in each of the two top camshafts behind the end caps. can you do a video clip of the noise as its bloody hard to diagnose a noise problem from a description.!! there could be many factors that could give you a rattle/knocking. but somebody with more experience will be along shortly i would imagine.

good good. i like easy jobs on the z as there few and far between LOL

cool was hoping that was the case because i couldnt see them in your pics with the engine bay skins. cheers jimmy :)

right it looks as if my clutch slave cylinder is going as im loosing a little fluid. now i already have a braided clutch line waiting to go on when i replace the slave, my question is the bleed nipple in the engine bay, does it get removed when you replace the old lines with the braided one. so i can clean up the engine bay a bit??

is there no markings on the timing belt?

now that really is geeky!

ah the happier model. that one will do , its probably more efficient anyway :)
