  2. You need to tell people what sort of area you work in - not everyone is IT here ! ;)
  3. I think 0w40 is too thin, 10w50 would be better. What is wrong with the Magnatec, I know it's not fully synth, but there shouldn't be a panic to remove it.
  4. Could do, there are often a couple of things I'd like, but don't order because of the $50 postage charge.
  5. I actually prefer the previous version, '97 or '98 perhaps ? :-

    Yeah, but it does behave a little wierd - you feel the clutch pedal push back when you rev the engine.

    Yep, there are two tanks, one of which is under the wing. There is a pic in the online manual and also if you remove part of the wheel arch liner you can see it.
  8. Ooops, sorry, had forgotten that we changed our minds about how the membership numbers would work !
  9. Bell Labs Proves Existence of Dark Suckers For years it has been believed that electric bulbs emitted light. However, recent information from Bell Labs has proven otherwise. Electric bulbs don't emit light, they suck dark. Thus they now call these bulbs dark suckers. The dark sucker theory, according to a Bell Labs spokesperson, proves the existence of dark, that dark has mass heavier than that of light, and that dark is faster than light. The basis of the dark sucker theory is that electric bulbs suck dark. Take for example, the dark suckers in the room where you are. There is less dark right next to them than there is elsewhere. The larger the dark sucker, the greater its capacity to suck dark. Dark suckers in a parking lot have a much greater capacity than the ones in this room. As with all things, dark suckers don't last forever. Once they are full of dark, they can no longer suck. This is proven by the black spot on a full dark sucker. A candle is a primitive dark sucker. lA new candle has a white wick. You will notice that after the first use, the wick turns black, representing all the dark which has been sucked into it. If you hold a pencil next to the wick of an operating candle, the tip will turn black because it got in the path of the dark flowing into the candle. Unfortunately, these primitive dark suckers have a very limited range. There are also portable dark suckers. The bulbs in these can't handle all of the dark by themselves, and must be aided by a dark storage unit. When the dark storage unit is full, it must be either emptied or replaced before the portable dark sucker can operate again. Dark has mass. When dark goes into a dark sucker, friction from this mass generates heat. Thus it is not wise to touch an operating dark sucker. Candles present a special problem, as the dark must travel in the solid wick instead of through glass. This generates a great amount of heat. Thus it can be very dangerous to touch an operating candle. Dark is also heavier than light. If you swim deeper and deeper, you notice it gets slowly darker and darker. When you reach a depth of approximately fifty feet, you are in total darkness. This is because the heavier dark sinks to the bottom of the lake and the lighter light floats to the top. The immense power of dark can be utilized to mans advantage. We can collect the dark that has settled to the bottom of lakes and push it through turbines, which generate electricity and help push it to the ocean where it may be safely stored. Prior to turbines, it was much more difficult to get dark from the rivers and lakes to the ocean. The Indians recognized this problem, and tried to solve it. When on a river in a canoe travelling in the same direction as the flow of the dark, they paddled slowly, so as not to stop the flow of dark, but when they traveled against the flow of dark, they paddled quickly so as to help push the dark along its way. Finally, we must prove that dark is faster than light. If you were to stand in an illuminated room in front of a closed, dark closet, then slowly open the closet door, you would see the light slowly enter the closet, but since the dark is so fast, you would not be able to see the dark leave the closet. In conclusion, Bell Labs stated that dark suckers make all our lives much easier. So the next time you look at an electric bulb remember that it is indeed a dark sucker.
  10. As far as I know the parts are the same. Give Mike Feeney a call (details in the traders section). He will know for certain and will probably be able to supply the parts too.
  11. A bad earth could cause these symtoms.
  12. Yeah, if you search though enough of the stuff written by 51x then you'll find it.
  13. I'm pretty certain that you're #2354
  14. "Reliable" ? LOL We must be talking a different car here, right ? :D :rofl:

    Try blowing them through (backwards) with an airline before you buy new ones, I have to do mine every now and then.
  16. Strewth, that's a mess !
  17. Yes, .... now if only it made it go faster .....
  18. Yes, in fact the best option would be to have a dual switched map for the ECU, one with your normal day-to-day map and another for the valet (as the US call it) or additional performance. I have done this for a couple of people, plus my own or course.
  19. If they're the ones I'm thinking about then I'd guess it's for damping noise - probably that good old goose honk, that would resonate round the plastic box nicely !
  20. Who's organising this year ? Last year we got top spot because Steve Burns was doing it !
  21. Instructions for setting the idle correctly are (surprise, surprise) in the online manual and also some additional detail on this site :- http://home.swipnet.se/e-solutions/IdleTech.html
  22. Hey, I was taking the piss - you are too, right ?
  23. From memory those pipes are different diameters - dunno why though .... Also the 'ugly' part as you say is a one way valve I think, which is part of the clutch servo mechanism.
  24. Was just sent this to my website address :- I have recently changed the injector connectors on my 90na z also the temp sensor(ecu) and connector and the 2 connectors for the air (I think) sensors either side of engine (not the lambda) They were corroded, nissan told me the usual £600 wiring loom bullshit! However I located some connectors that fit, if you cut the locator off the sensor/injector or cut a grove in connector. They are from Durite (+44(0)1255 555200 http://www.durite.co.uk) part number : 0-012-71 (juniour jack 2 way connector) £3.02+vat each!!! Hope this could be of help to many z owners Simon Looks like it's worth further investigation.
  25. Yeah - pink ! It'll go nicely with the purple ... LOL :D
