Octane boosters are shit, they add virtually nothing to the rating of petrol !

Have you bled them properly ? Still sounds like air in the system with that much travel, As for the juddering there are various bushes etc which can cause vibrations under braking. Best idea is to get it on a ramp and check it out.

im up for it :)

can you blame her :whistling:

Heading over to Jimmers tomorrow afternoon to start Noz's car. If anyone is looking to have some done then bring it over so I can see how much needs doing :)

valve stem oil seals

IM glad I just don't make tea, I was getting my hand just as dirty as Jims :)

So yesterday I took an hour and halfs drive to see Jimmer and have him fix my daily driver. What a waste of time !! The guy is useless and such an arrogant **** !!! :tt2: Only kidding ! Really nice guy, very pleasant to talk to and have an intelligent conversation, even if he did take the piss out of me being a Scotsman !!! ( yeah and you to Noz :whistling:) So after spending a couple hours on Consult and talking to Noz, including head scratching as to WTF was going on he managed to solve a few related problems and diagnose narrow it down to the best possible cause. I will 100 percent be making the journey to have work done in future ( except in the next 2 weeks, m5 closure meant it took 3 hours to get home !) I have visited a few "performance" places before and even fewer have impressd me. Powerzed is one of them and cant recommend him enough, especially after seeing the 1k bhp zed !!!

Im heading up to see jim tomorrow, :) He is going to cast his eye over my daily driver, I can do spanner work no prob but some things would be best left to the pros !

Im getting bored working down here so anyone in Somerset or surrounding areas needs any welding done gimme a shout ( will only charge for fuel and food :D ) I enjoy welding on cars and need something to keep my mind busy ! I don't have my welding gear down with me just yet, but in 3-4 weeks will be driving home and will pick it up then, or if you have access to one even better ! Just let me know

the metal screw type expanding plugs. Plus when you install them use some sort of binding agent for extra strength.

I avoid Herpes, had them cause so may problems with parcels both picking up and delivering. BTW I know I said Herpes, it was deliberate !

Im bidding on an exhaust on ebay but the guy wont post :( Its way to far to far for me to drive just for that but is anyone here bale to pick up and courier it to me ? il pay any expenses plus some beer tokens :) cheers

last time I seen a shell was last year, and it needed a lot of welding and still sold for over 4k. You wont get anything for a grand.

Some 350zs didn't cone with the larger brembo brakes. maybe those discs are from the base model.

Sometimes things slip through the vat and duty net. I have had it a couple of times but most of the time I have had to pay the tax.

Are you able to build some sort of workshop extension to your home ? that would kill 2 birds with one stone.

wow, the 189 is a pile of crap ! never seen a sikorsky so cant comment

Just because its on the interwebz doesn't make it gospel. speaking from PERSONAL experience doing it on many old cars, turbocharged and not, I have never had any problems, the cars have always run sweet as a nut afterward ( or as sweet as they were before the flush)

so rather than flush the crap out you would rather leave it in there ?

yup, cleaned out a few cars with a mixture of diesel and gearbox oil. cleans out the oil system no end. My old Granada cosworth had it done, and after 8k miles the oil was still very golden with only a hint of turning black.

800 does seem steep.
