Brakes
dont bother with the rear evo brembo I believe the piston is slightly smaller than the 300's standard caliper piston, fronts are good though

I would be investigating the rust issues further, I doubt it will only be the sill that has gone

problem with blue smoke
Does it smoke when you have your foot planted or when you lift off, could be pcv valves/breathers, worn valve stem seals and lots of other things

fuel injector and rail options
I need bigger injectors and was planning on going down the following route DeatschWerks adapters to fit later style injectors as nismo one's for original rail are silly money, bigger injectors, and as the standard fuel rail struggles to get fuel to the last injectors I was thinking of splitting the rail running 2 feeds 2 fpr's, cant find any info if any one has run the standard rail as separate sides Thoughts ?

Engine removal
Lifting the car off the engine is the easiest way to do it if you can, had mine out a few times now and lifting the car up leaving the engine and box was by far the one needing the least amount of effort

Lambda Sensors
dont know about best but andrew page can supply replacements with correct plugs
-
Clutch slave cylinder
Can be a pain to bleed, when the engine is running the servo assist will reduce peddle pressure so if you have air in it you will have a very light clutch, I let mine stand for half an hour after trying to bleed it, pedal was hardly moving slave cylinder when I went back the air had settled and came straight out.

mass airflow meter
These are for sale for the TT, I have one at the moment for testing purposes, so far its not looking too good, they are cheap look cheap and feel cheap, the measurement set up is different to the oem Nissan unit, we had a dual set up and a data stream recording which showed the new cheap item to spike wildly with a very uneven reading and it hit max airflow a couple of times on an engine running no more than 350, conclusion so far not impressed and at this stage would not trust one on my engine, still more tests to do though.

JAE rad hose help if you can
Does any one have a spare top radiator hose for a TT (THE SHORT ONE) that they could fetch to JAE, Mine split tonight, I have butchered a spare bit of hose as a bodge but I don't know if it will stand up to a trip there and back, would be nice to have a backup plan for the return trip. Will try Nissan tomorrow but not likely they will have one in stock. Mods please move delete if this is out of order in anyway
