See here for details :- http://www.moddeduk.com It's the Kent Modified Car Show, seems that previously it's been in Sittingbourne, but this year it's moved to Rainham (which I thought was Essex. but there you go ! :confused: )

You really want to get the stainless steel woven stuff, not that cheap shite that needs painting etc.

It was a joke for the blind ! LOL :D

Live update, that is what keeps NAV up to date, right ? In which case it should be run every day ! Usually this will schedule automatically. I don't use Yahgoo, but if you mean that you use their web interface then you're pretty safe and the cause of the emails is probably due to the reason I suggested earlier.

To start with get a virus checker - this one is a free download. AVG from http://www.grisoft.com Next, it is quite likely that you do not have a virus, but someone else with your name in their address book does. That virus picks a name from that book to look like the originator of the emails and then the failure reports get bounced back to that person - YOU !

I've never had anyone ask what my car is (except when I was driving the 350Z last week). Maybe it's because mine is the subtle blue colour and not red with big spolier etc - guess it just slips under the RADAR ! ;) (never been nicked in it either)

Hmmm, anyone on the forum got one of these then ?

Check their web site - it'll be in the calendar.

Ha, I've had a bit of practice at these now and can remove the chip without damaging it ! :tongue:

Yes, there is a varnish or lacquer sprayed over the board that sticks the EPROM down. You need to be very careful levering up the chip because it can pull up the tracks, score the tracks with your lever or pull out the plated holes !

Mine was the same symtoms and it was definitely the centre bearing.

Is it downhill from the garage ? ;)

LOL Actually I meant f-all difference to my lousy tickover - there may be other benefits, which as yet, are less obvious.

Actually, I take that back, it's made feck all difference, probably more to do with the ECU reset than anything else !

No, I'll still drive the Z to work most days, it's the 500 mile round trip up north every other weekend that's doing the damage (to my wallet).

What one of the clubs do (perhaps the Aus guys) is to create a PDF that people can download and print for themselves, that way we don't have the costs and hassle of distributing them. If someone arty were to create something then that might be the right way to go.

Peugeot 405/6 diesel. Last for ever, cheap as chips to run. Will be looking at one of those and a Xantia turbo diesel at the weekend. Hoping to reduce my Z mileage by about 1000 per month !

Does this help ?

Cheers guys. All happy customers so far.

I fitted the grounding kit on mine at the weekend and it does seem to have improved my rather rough and unpredictable tickover. So I guess I must have a poor earth somewhere.

Yep, that's right, just what I did on mine. Seem to recollect having a little trouble with the pipes though - I think I used the UK spec pipes in the end because they're slightly longer.

Sounds pretty expensive for one in poor condition to me.

Doesn't he specialise in Porridge these days ?
