I'm getting Jimmer to do the build but need to ensure what i'm sending him id good for the job. At the moment the heads i have seem to have issues in that the inner cams wont rotate properly. The cams have been out the heads for 6 months now but have been stored in oil and i also ensured the caps were not mixed up. When dismantled again a few of the valves dont move easily so i'm thinking they are bent.

Shoot, never notices they were 40p. Been quoted 250 per bank to refurb the current set I have.

So i found these guys who advertise refurbished heads with a trade in of the old ones. Is this worth it costs wise and has anyone heard of these guys ? £350 a side for refurbed heads. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RECONDITIONED-CYLINDER-HEAD-RHS-NISSAN-300ZX-3-0-V6-VG30DETT-1990-1996-R-40P/164658209965?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RECONDITIONED-CYLINDER-HEAD-LHS-NISSAN-300ZX-3-0-V6-VG30DETT-1990-1996-L-40P/154342799911?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 I would rather get replacements with warranty which these guys do than risk another failure because of a faulty cam.

So i have broke the engine apart again ? And partially reassembled the heads ready to be sent to an engineer works to refurbish them. However one of the cams seems to be binding so i'm not trusting them at all now. The cam shafts have been stored in oil for the last few months and have only a small amount of surface oxidisation. When placing the cams back on the heads the interior right bank seems to jam up compared to the rest and i haven't even put the caps on yet. I would expect to be able to rotate a few mm which the other three do fine, also it seems to rock in position as if the middle section was higher seated.

I removed mine because it felt like the back end was drifting out when turning. Wasn't a good feeling if your not used to it.

Happy Birthday, hope its went good so far.

Starting to get the nag to start on this long running project again. Most of the parts have been boxed up for over a year, and the likes of the crank which is fitted to the block along with the pistons will need dismantled again and checked over. When i last tried to get this going the crank started to bind so i stopped what i was doing to avoid risk of me screwing it up again. So this time i'm getting everything shipped down to Jimmer. The block is wrapped up in plastic but i need to get the crank checked so i'll need to dismantle everything again this weekend. More updates then.

My zed is a 96 and I can confirm it's a one piece actuator that just unplugs. Unless the previous owner snipped the cables it should just be a matter of plugging it back in. Although for it to work properly the sensor in the steering wheel still needs to be operational too.

Every zed i've owned has had a K&N in it, and the present zed has two !

Map Updated with the latest stats.

nope

So looks like a menu link cant also be a menu dropdown on the mobile version. So i have split the gallery and competition sections up.

Strange one but i noticed that too last night, seems an issue with the theme we are using.

This should be resolved now.

Running a fix for it now; But it might take all night

Seems to be a plugin issue. The files are on the server and if you use the tools the pictures can be downloaded directly.

Best outta five!

Working on it

Post the grid reference from the map, not your postcode.

I can see the notification by email for some reason you never automatically enabled again. No worries fixed it manually.

I'm in E6 ?

Its that time again since this should have been done the start of Feb and every year i forget. The club sensus is now open. Following on from last year we have the map in a grid layout and club areas as follows : It would be great to have an accurate idea where everyone is so please feel free to also post where on the grid you are and i can do a manual calculation later.

Its usually automatic, how did you pay and i will look into it.

Sorry, But the picture upload and hosting is a feature of being a subscribed member. That's why the option does not show for you.

Happy Birthday Richard, all the best.
