fitting clutch hose
Get a six point socket or one of the 4wd ones - they will shift most things. And btw WD40 is useless as a penetrating oil - it's a water dispersant. Use the real thing like Plus Gas.

The word "literally"
See this for much more appropriate use of English ! http://www.aestheticdesigns.net/funny/properenglish.html Don't have the sound on too loud though ;)

wheel nut torque
I think so, which I why I do mine to 80lb/ft - nice and evenly. I think the manual says something like 74lb/ft

My car is creeking.
Happened to mine a couple of days after fitting, removed and greased bush - no problem since.

Wot BHP?
I'm expecting mine to be about 300rwbhp. Power mods are intake, exhaust, SE chip and about 12.5psi boost. Rest of the cobblers is on my rides page.

My car is creeking.
My guess is the bushes on the anti-roll (sway) bar. If they are dry then you get exactly that type of creek as the bar rotates within them.

Erm, are you SURE you want to fit NOS on your 350Z?
Holy shite, what a mess - was quick off the mark though ! At least they have an easy way of checking the oil level now ! ;) LOL

CAM belt check!.
It's normal practice for a sticker to be placed on the cambelt cover indicating the mileage at which the belt was last changed. Failing that it should be in the service history, if not then it may not have been done. If it was a DIY then you may have a receipt at least showing that a belt had been purchased ....

JWT Chip
To the best of my knowledge the SE chip uses modified Nissan code, not JWT (which is also modified Nissan code of course).

Hows this for a suggestion?
Thanks. But thanks are also due to Mike Groves as he hosts it for free. Without whom .... etc etc Also, just to be absolutely honest, there is very little real content on my site, it's primarily a directory to resources hosted elsewhere.

Hows this for a suggestion?
In principle yes, but there are limitations to what we can do with this forum s/w. I had intended to keep it simple - just create categories within a read-only forum and then copy relevent posts into each area as they turned up. This way we keep all the useful info in one place which saves tons of searches and duplication. Downside is that the onus is on the mods/admin to move the posts. To make it more formal and professional would be fantastic but I was unable to commit that much time, not to mention that my web design skills are, um, limited to say the least. So, any and all help is appreciated.

Blown Turbo???
Usually is just the seals that fail and then they smoke heavily. Generally car still runs OK though, but you do Red Arrows impressions. If there is an oil supply problem then they can seize and assuming only one has gone then you will never see the boost gauge raise about about 0psi. Which means loss of power.
-
Yet ANOTHER safety boost Q...
With a ConZult or Techtom you ought to be able to see the BSCV's come on at 60 deg C water temp - that would at least tell you that the ECU thinks that it's OK to raise boost above the standard 7psi and is trying to do it.
-
Hows this for a suggestion?
I'd have no problem with that as I really don't have time to do all this stuff at the moment (as you can see from the last time my web site was updated). Just being Admin without really doing any Mod stuff is sucking up time I don't have. I had originally planned a read only Tech forum in order to capture all the useful info that gets posted here, (like a vote to FAQ in effect), but AndrewG wanted to focus on the other upgrades first, which I did. So now might be agood time to revisit this or put forward alternative suggestions.

Outstanding Payment for Trax Tickets
So just to play devils advocate here .... How would you feel about this if club funds had been used to play for a club stand and provide x free tickets for club members, as the UK Z Club do for these type of events ?

MR2 Turbo vx 300zx TT
The handling between the series I, II & III models varies a lot. Early ones are seriously twitchy at the rear and a real challenge, the newer ones are better and also more powerful. My mates one is making over 225 rwBHP, which ain't bad for a hairdressers car !
