Good to see something is occuring with it, last time I saw it jimmer had it. That was shortly before it went up for sale.

Exactly, I think that's why a lot of blokes end up spending it all, boredom. One of guys often just goes to the cinema, that adds up.

I saw a yellow one for sale in fareham this week, seem that? The black one you see is it a swb with a stillen front splitter? If so it's likely Marcos car.

Lol I think I've met most people by now, or seen a photo. I've never met baz, he's a taller blonde haired swede looking type lol.

What are you upto Neil? Do you need the loom pschyically out out?

I was talking to rich about that very same thing. In my head he had long hair, looked like a rocker. I was find it interesting, like how you perceive a radio presenter to look.

I only ask as I saw a dark coloured one I assumed it was black the other day on the m27

I just checked, there even any... Unless the zone is a funny named one?

International rescue mate. Nah I work for a electronic water control systems company, most of my time is spent servicing water controllers, dosing pumps etc for commercial swimming pools, everyday is different though few weeks ago I was in Plymouth sorting out an ORP controller for Ozone treatment on a shark quarantine tank... ATM I'm booked in for two days in Torquay to fit and set up a new control system for a hotel pool. My actual job title is a service technician , but that's pretty vague, I literally get up to all sorts.

Lol normally is agree rich, esp being in Devon. All the best ciders here. But every penny counts till I sign the papers and the bills keep appearing. 300 for this piece if paper 200 for this one lol, lots of money going out ATM. Hopefully be in this time next month though. - - - Updated - - - As for the porn channels rich, even the people ones have hounds in the cast lol.

That's about right for a healthy tt on the run mate. You may even find you get more outta it. It's not black your zed is it?

Ahh I see, what's going on with the 2+2 bob?

Working away is boring. Often I'm on my own, I'm in Torquay this evening, finished at 5 went to the hotel, went for a walk had dinner... Bored! TV is rubbish poverty vision, internet access is very limited, ie I have to wait till the e comes up to post. Anyone else regularly do this boring routine?

Re-done :s did they unroll?

Power zed will be able to do that job to a very high standard mate. First port of call for all vg30 building processes.

With it separated, we managed to crane it in from the side. Because as jimmer said the engine is so far back. It meant the front bumper could stay on etc. just gotta be uber careful of the wing, but then you would have to watch front going in from there anyways. Serious tip though don't do it alone, having someone else tere to spot you makes things easier.

Ha nothing like using the family. Katie bolted up my clutch master her girly hands were much better suited than my twisted sausages.

Once you start getting to these sizes, you need to ensure you have sufficient clearance for the hicas arm and lower wishbone. Using 19s can help clear the hicas, and aftermarket arms allow more room. Obviously the arch itself is worth attention, you need to make sure it doesn't make contact at any point. Pretty sure 11.5 or 12" is the MAX MAX without p Popping the arch out. Are you going to run proper rubber? Or a silly stretch?

the lovely thing about not having fb though is all the stuff you don't get involved in that you don't want to be involved in...... Don't you just love the such and such said on fb, well I get to reply no, I haven't a clue about any of it, and more importantly mean it lol.

The annoying thing about not having fb is I miss stuff like this.

Just like Gary, the forum is my fag break. My job also involves lots of waiting, waiting for appointments, keys water perameters to settle lots of waiting. I also surf the internet while fishing, ATM that's on average 2/3 times a week! I'm not looking for little nibbles, I'm waiting for the rod to rip out my hands. So I'm not going to miss it not giving it 110% of my attention.

Forgot that very sore bill. Getting the work done by a zed specialist will cut labour significantly, who wants to pay some monkey to learn on your car. Which is what 99% of garages including those "jap specialists" will be doing. Places that spend all days working on rbs don't necessarily know a damn thing about a vg.

I prefer it in two parts, it can be a pig getting the box on. Just make sure the clutch is aligned correctly. It's personal choice mate.

I respond to this the best I can and maybe try to put some things into perspective. I would say there are only currently 5/6 cars in the club running over the 500 mark with a few behind them between 4 and 500, that isn't many considering the amount of cars we cars in the club. Pop over to the US site it seems virtually no car is running stock power some real monsters over there. You say minor mods...to get 400hp yeah is agree few bolt ons healthy engine good tune, done. Certainly though the generic chip and boost jets will only net you around 330hp so some way short, you will need that roper custom tune and some breather mods to achieve this, oh and a healthy engine to begin with. To make a genuine 500hp zed you will probably be spending a minimum not including the car of 4k maybe more. You would need a healthy engine, bigger turbo's, divorced downpipes and decats, cat back, bigger intercoolers, injectors to suit. Then the supporting oil cooler and rad to come with the higher power outputs. Not to mention a new clutch by this point. If were being cynical and sensible about it the costs are going to spiral to nearer 10k by the time you've made it stop better, don't forget that... oh and got the engine to a healthy state, and ensured all those crappy 20 year old bushes are renewed, and you've got some decent rubber and grip, as they say power is nothing without control. The questions surrounding reliability and handling, well it is 20 years old. So unless its new or refurbished it could break... but that's true of any old car reguardless of tune. As for how will handle well the suspension has to be set up and refreshed properly, don't expect to put 500hp through 20 year old bushes and a 225 wide rear tire with no traction control...Once sorted well its likely you will run out of talent before the car does, watch bob or jaffas time attack cars handle..... As for cheap, well tbh if you were going to make 500hp there are cheaper ways, any 355 cubic inch chevy will make 500hp naturally astriprated with much less outlay. The long and the short of it is you can very cheaply get a z32 to 500hp, ie with a few thousand. How long will it last, that's anyones guess, theres chaps making over 600rwhp on stock internals for years. Saying that there people out there blowing up stock power level engines...Do your research before you think about anything further. But yes a vg30 is a power monster like any other 90s jap engine the like sof the rb or jz

Ams ones are cheaper and apparently flow better. Be warned however some casting issues exist esp if you buy directly. But yeah very few options.
