Yes it does, VAT and delivery - I paid him last night :)

A letter to the London Observer from Terry Jones (yes, of Monty Python). Letter to the Observer Sunday January 26, 2003 The Observer I'm really excited by George Bush's latest reason for bombing Iraq: he's running out of patience. And so am I! For some time now I've been really pissed off with Mr Johnson, who lives a couple of Doors down the street. Well, him and Mr Patel, who runs the health food shop. They both give me queer looks, and I'm sure Mr Johnson is planning something nasty for me, but so far I haven't been able to discover what. I've been round to his place a few times to see what he's up to, but he's got everything well hidden. That's how devious he is. As for Mr Patel, don't ask me how I know, I just know - from very good sources - that he is, in reality, a Mass Murderer. I have leafleted the street telling them that if we don't act first, he'll pick us off one by one. Some of my neighbours say, if I've got proof, why don't I go to the police? But that's simply ridiculous. The police will say that they need evidence of a crime with which to charge my neighbours. They'll come up with endless red tape and quibbling about the rights and wrongs of a pre-emptive strike and all the while Mr Johnson will be finalising his plans to do terrible things to me, while Mr Patel will be secretly murdering people. Since I'm the only one in the street with a decent range of automatic firearms, I reckon it's up to me to keep the peace. But until recently that's been a little difficult. Now, however, George W. Bush has made it clear that all I need to do is run out of patience, and then I can wade in and do whatever I want! And let's face it, Mr Bush's carefully thought-out policy towards Iraq is the only way to bring about international peace and security. The one certain way to stop Muslim fundamentalist suicide bombers targeting the US or the UK is to bomb a few Muslim countries that have never threatened us. That's why I want to blow up Mr Johnson's garage and kill his wife and children. Strike first! That'll teach him a lesson. Then he'll leave us in peace and stop peering at me in that totally unacceptable way. Mr Bush makes it clear that all he needs to know before bombing Iraq is that Saddam is a really nasty man and that he has weapons of mass destruction - even if no one can find them. I'm certain I've just as much justification for killing Mr Johnson's wife and children as Mr Bush has for bombing Iraq. Mr Bush's long-term aim is to make the world a safer place by eliminating 'rogue states' and 'terrorism'. It's such a clever long-term aim because how can you ever know when you've achieved it? How will Mr Bush know when he's wiped out all terrorists? When every single terrorist is dead? But then a terrorist is only a terrorist once he's committed an act of terror. What about would-be terrorists? These are the ones you really want to eliminate, since most of the known terrorists, being suicide bombers, have already eliminated themselves. Perhaps Mr Bush needs to wipe out everyone who could possibly be a future terrorist? Maybe he can't be sure he's achieved his objective until every Muslim fundamentalist is dead? But then some moderate Muslims might convert to fundamentalism. Maybe the only really safe thing to do would be for Mr Bush to eliminate all Muslims? It's the same in my street. Mr Johnson and Mr Patel are just the tip of the iceberg. There are dozens of other people in the street who I don't like and who - quite frankly - look at me in odd ways. No one will be really safe until I've wiped them all out. My wife says I might be going too far but I tell her I'm simply using the same logic as the President of the United States. That shuts her up. Like Mr Bush, I've run out of patience, and if that's a good enough reason for the President, it's good enough for me. I'm going to give the whole street two weeks - no, 10 days - to come out in the open and hand over all aliens and interplanetary hijackers, galactic outlaws and interstellar terrorist masterminds, and if they don't hand them over nicely and say 'Thank you', I'm going to bomb the entire street to kingdom come. It's just as sane as what George W. Bush is proposing - and, in contrast to what he's intending, my policy will destroy only one street.

Can anybody lend me a Techtom ? I need to find out for certain whether mine is Donald Ducked or whether it's my ECU diag port. Have faffed around with this for ages now and have no conclusive proof either way, although I feel it in my water that the most likely cause is an intermittent problem with my Techtom. Alternatively, anyone around my way-ish want to borrow mine for a week or so to confirm whether it works (or whether it damages their ECU diag port - LOL)

Best place to look is the Tech section on twinturbo.net, they have a full write up there. E.g. http://www.twinturbo.net/cgi-bin/ttnet_viewmsg.pl?forum=main&msg_id=740530 http://www.twinturbo.net/cgi-bin/ttnet_viewmsg.pl?forum=main&msg_id=737844

Err, actually I mixed up ev's post and yours, he mentioned working in the City and I know Mark lives in W London - so I'm not psychic at all - just careless and lucky - LOL :)

You'll have fun fitting the traction control, one of the few jobs that is actually easier on a Zed. I think I was probably the first to fit one to an MR2 turbo and hopefully Racelogic will now be making the wires the correct length!

I think Topless (Mark) has a UK TT Manual for sale and he's in your approximate area.

Well you have probably inadvertently reset the ECU, so that may have made a difference.

Can't remember W95, but :- UNIX = /etc/hosts W2K & XP = /windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts

It's worth reading some of these :- http://www.300zx.org.uk/tech_20.htm

The plugs are different but it's not too much of a challenge to connect them up. Nissan can provide the mesh, (there are separate part numbers) but it is very expensive when you can buy enough to cover all three openings for about £15 and have a DIY jobbie. 99 Spec front bumper 62022-VP125 99 spec indicator assy for above - RH 26120-VP126 99 spec indicator assy for above - LH 26125-VP126 Wire mesh for bumper 62254-vp100

No wonder I couldn't find it last weekend !!!

Hold on a tick for Smithy, he may be back in contact in a day or two. I need one too err, group buy ?????

I believe that late model Zeds lost the boost gauge.

It's easy to check the level in the bottle - there is a dipstick as part of the cap (at least there should be!) It is likely that the bottle is overfull and therefore leaking when hot water from the rad expands into it.

I saw that and did a bit of background research - the only feedback I could find was that the springs are f-hard !

Ah-ha, that can be the magic of timezones !

Danny, What is your normal mileage ?

Not sure this will work but .... http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/picture_library/dir_17/car_portal_pic_8544.jpg?4228

I posted on a thread about this just recently. Got a battery from my local Motoquip for about £32+VAT. 70AH and 575 CCA I think. 2 year guarantee. You can get EXACTLY the same battery with a 4 year guarantee for about another £12. So unless you have a hoooge stereo, then a std battery should be OK.

FYI Mongooses(!) look like this :-

No disrespect Danny, but I simply do not believe that a TT will do 34mpg. I do a similar journey to that from time to time and the most I have ever got is about 24-25. Is your odometer in miles or Km/h ? Peace :cool:

Well if that isn't a replica of the SE induction system (which I have) then I'm a Dutchman (No offence Eric ;))
