Opinion From you all please
Well surely that would depend on where the turbo is leaking oil. If it goes straight down the exhaust then it would be on the same side.

water bleed plug
Well either I dreamt it or it grew legs because I could only find the bottom one. Sorry.

Subscribed member pm problems
Fixed. The database gets a bit screwed up sometimes.

Bigger breaks
350Z front brakes also fit easily, but you need to have both calipers and discs. R34 have a different offset. 350Z rears take a little work !

Ecu Help
It'll look like this, probably with the socket shown here :-

Propshaft ? any difference ?
As far as I know they are identical.
-
water bleed plug
If you mean the top or bottom radiator plug then I'm pretty sure I have a spare somewhere ...

Suspension gasket question.
You can see the gasket on a lot of cars as they tend to be a bit out of place - they're paper as far as I remember. So if desperate you could cut one out of a sheet of gasket paper (or a Weetabix box LOL ! ).

Putting the conzult on a pda?
I have a spare H5450 if someone wants to make me an offer for it.

Mesh fixing
You can get stuff called "Sticks Like Sh*t" from Screwfix, I reckon that will stick pretty much anything, and it's waterproof.

Air-Con not working!
One of my neighbours is an air con engineer and he can re-gas cars with an R12 drop-in replacement (R49 maybe ?). Basically he'll do it for beer money if anyone is interested.

Hicas outer Ball Joint turning
Well if you're brave you could put a bit of threadlock in there, but then it may never come apart again ! What I did was lubricate the thread so the nut did up very easily and then do it up fast with an air tool - to kinda surprise it into staying in place - it worked for me.

Off to Le Mans tonight
I'm Jealous, some people from work are going and a bunch of my mates from around here. I don't have the time because of work at the moment.

300zx Frog
Nice colour, hate most of the details though.

Bit fed up......
Before you go the whole hog and replace the injector, check the wiring all the way back to the ECU connector.

Timing seems well advanced ??
I hooked up the neutral switch on mine, you notice the difference when you put it in and out of neutral.
-
Timing seems well advanced ??
Well the auto box is different - it wouldn't have neutral sensor in the same place.
-
Timing seems well advanced ??
I can't remember the exact changeover points but at 1000 rpm your timing could well be that high. Bring it down to 650rpm and see what it is then. Bear in mind that the Datascan only shows you what the ECU thinks it set at - it relies on the base timing being set correctly at 15 degrees, everything is an offset from that point onwards.
