Them Zimbo's dont like being compared to us Superior South Africans :dance: Now I'm gonna get it in the neck!

Dude, you're treading on a fine line there! Wait til she reads it!!!!!! :wack: She is from Zimbabwe!

Who cares if it isnt a Zed under the panels, when you're blasting down the road no one else has to know the truth!

Sweet! Would be faster if it was white though!

Happy Birthday Bro!

At last! 8pm, right, need to find the missus something to do for the hour. Otherwise she keeps talking in the most inconvenient moments! :headvswal I just get her back when East Benders is on :dance:

I think Yoda must have had a few bevvies!

Its hard work isnt it! I'm fitting all the conponents onto a breadboard to check it works before I solder everything. I'll tell you how it goes!

I put a calling card under your wiper blade. I usually park mine where yours was, boy i got a fright! Thought someone had painted it RED,LOL!

Search for oilman's threads. He tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about oils, and more.

That looks awesome! Gonna give it a go, will give me something to do this week. :dance:

Do what I did Bud, get yourself a bicycle and a good pair of walking boots! :smash:

Happy Birthday!!! :duffer:

I have an Autotechnic water temp gauge that didnt come with a sender and I'm buggers if I can find one. I'm going to try to out a res. in series to adjust the sender to match the gauge. Will have to get Conzult or a data cable to compare it to though. Any idea if this definitly wont work?!

Depends on the gauge you want to use. The sender unit has a set resistive range for the different temps, if it doesnt match the gauge, it wont show the correct temp. Putting a variable res. in series to adjust it might work, providing the change in resistance is linear. If its logorithmic it wont work either as it will be 'out' at either end of the scale. HTH!

When you flash your high beams it turns off your dips momenterly. HIDs dont like being turned off and on quickly as they need a 'start' period to warm up. The relay just keeps the dips on when you turn on the high beams. Doesnt take long to do at all, just need another blue Nissan relay and a 100V 1Amp diode (25p) I'll look for the link you ya!

And then wire in a relay so you can use the high beam safely. Just done mine, now I can flash without damaging my bits!

LOL! I usually need a cold beer AFTER flying with them! However we have NEVER EVER smuggled beers back from Bosnia and we NEVER hid them in the rear avionics bay!! Shhh!

When I was a fitting & turning appy, we polished the intake of a Mini Cooper (1275cc). After a run on a dyno it produced less power and torque than when compared to the same engine fitted with the non polished intake. The air leaving the carb was flowing TOO smoothly into the cyclinders. Needed the casting marks and the rough surface ffrom the sand casting to 'tumble' the air flow. Not sure how this relates to the head but I'm bored! Interested to hear if anyone elso agrees with the intake side of things though! :cool:

Yip thats right! One or two bubbles are perfectly fine, lots of small bubbles are bad. Prob running low on freon. Had to learn all about the refrigarant cycle for this new fandangled Apache helicopter we got at work. Dont ask!

And I'll be there with the rust, leaks and smoke! But I will be there!
