Petrol Prices
Hmm, any chance this was written by a Shell employee? ;) :D

it still wont turn off
I would put money on it being the ecu. My old zed was doing this and a change of ecu cured it. I think it may have been caused by jump starting the car, but could never prove it. Gareth

Whats the best Lux Barge for 2-2.5k?
I'd consider a Lexus GS300 at that price range, they seem very good value for money and meet 90% of your criteria. I've seen the newer shape 4.3 litre ones going for silly money considering their original sale price.

what happened to Courtesy Nissan????
Courtesynissan.com is there but the parts website courtesyparts.com isn't. I guess they forgot to renew their contract with their domain provider. ** *****x - beaten to it ** :o

dead/faulty stock boost gauge
Cheers for that Andy, will take a look later on.

dead/faulty stock boost gauge
No. Both were working fine up until today, the after market one is plumbed in on a t-piece. I'm guessing that the boost sensor could be at fault, but I have never heard of one them fail before?

dead/faulty stock boost gauge
For some reason my stock boost gauge has stopped working, it just sits to the far left (as it does when ignition is off) on -7. I have an after market boost gauge which is working fine - shows good vacuum on idle and boost under load. There doesn't appear to be any pipes hanging off that I can see anywhere. Any ideas? Is the stock gauge electrical or mechanical? Cheers

(NW) Sun 28th Oct: Monthly Meet, Old Wirral Hundred, Ellesmere Port
Nice to see you all, especially after the weather was looking a bit dodgy earlier in the morning. Good pictures you took of my new 'work in progress' Graham, almost looks presentable in them! :o Hope the grub was ok... :smw:

Found another picture of the Mission car(thanks deve8uk for the identification)... Just need to find someone who supplies the kit or can import it! :D

Royal Mail delays?
There is a backlog. We had a letter arrive yesterday from the bank which was dated the 8th. They sent sent us several letters dated the same date and the others arrived about a fortnight ago.

Your very favourite photo of a Z
I really like this one, understated but purposeful. Would love to be able to find out what the body kit is on this car...

Must confess to liking it, looks very purposeful.

Approx cost for cam seal replacement
Cheers for that Greg. What is the going rate for a 60K service then, I'd be particularly interested in anybody who has used garages/specialists in the north west...

Approx cost for cam seal replacement
Has anyone had to have their cam seal(s) replaced before and do you remember what sort of price you paid?. I have an oil leak which looks like one of the cam seals on the drivers side head, there is a fair amount of oil on that side and it looks to be coming from under the cam cover. I am considering having a go myself but I don't feel particularly confident removing and refitting the cam belt successfully. I guess whilst doing the seal(s) I should also consider having the water pump and cam belt changed as well? Cheers Gareth

Anyone want a '99 300zx?
There is a way that involves shipping to Ireland and registering it there first I believe. Not sure exactly how it works but I think this is one way that the Skyline R34 GTR can be brought into the UK. Don't know much about it and could be totally wrong, but I am sure I read this somewhere...

FAO mick1
Here's my RD350, currently partly stripped until I decide what to do with it!.... :cool: Its only done 8000 miles as well, I inherited it off my stepdad who also had an earlier 350 which looked the same as the blue one at the top of the page albeit white with red flashes.
