Well the quotes I heard he was referancing 23 year olds, I obviously know lots of percuilar people then. If in the as it seems that I am wrong , the young are thick and lazy, then of corse it's the direct fault of the education system and parents. Sadly you reep what you sow. Which by extension lays the fault and equal parts of laziness square on the laps of the parents of this "lazy generation". That is certainly a fact gentleman.

I'm getting through sooo much screen wash in my van ATM lol

Oh don't it takes bloody ages.

Fair comment mate, but that's not exclusive to the young is it? Every shop you go in the sales assistant sees you as a chore. But I Spose you pay peanuts you get monkeys. I still retain most people want to work, and earn. If you have ever spent any time involuntary unemployed you will know how shit it feels.

Correct.

No I wasn't in support of it. I believe university should be the preoccupation of the educational elite, not a prerequisite to every time dick and Harry, as it currently is. Ask yourself if theyvwere career driven professional students would they have had time to protest? no they would have been at work like the rest of us. The vast majority of young people are ready and willing to work, slandering the majority because of the few is pathetic.

Like I just explained to you it's more to do with the variance of the metals proprieties rather than its strength as such. Cast alloy and the Ali that would be welded in are different. Not to mention te effect that would be had on the spoke by the extreme localised heat from the welding process. If you welded it, the first little pot hole you tapped would probably re crack it. If that happened at motorway speeds or higher you may or may not find yourself unhappy, I say may not because you may not survive long enough to be unhappy.

How long do we have left of these replies jeff before you vacate the country?

Oooo I'm exicited.

Who else has heard this buffoon today slandering the British youth? Apparently were all lightweights and not worth employing. He has done loads of work for the young but suddenly there's a turn round and he is encouraging people to employ forging workers as they work harder. Not cool. Sure there are some lazy buggers about but hell with the parents most of these kids have got, the professionally unemployed they have hardly had the best work ethic instilled. Youth unemployment is at a real high atm, there are economic reasons for this. Most will testify that most want to work. My girlfriend fired out 100s of cvs in an attempt to even get a bar job for months, without avail whilst people who can barely speak the lingo get employment in those same jobs. That scenario combined with the bad press the young get is a real soul destroyer. Being turned down for the most basic jobs as well as being slandered by the press has is a serious effect, the weaker members of these groups soon loose heart. To have a youth ambassador, someone who's supposed to be on your side make these comments is a real kick! It also needs to be born in mind that the current youth is a product of the previous generation. The poorly educated are this because of the education they have received and the counter scenario of job snobbery is also about the education system. From age 5 kids are brainwashed into the get good grades get a good job, so the expectation is if you get the right bits you should get what your expecting, sadly no longer the case. Those that cannot for fill the statistics are simply cast to one side. This causes the following minorities, over qualified idoit's degreed up with no common sense and a group that gave up on themselves slightly after they were given up on. The majority of young people however are as hardworking as anyone else and frustrated about progressing on with their lives. I work with several guys of my age and we all do a minimum of 50 hours a week often more like 70. So Mr. Oliver you can feck off, do not include me or the majority in your harm full and small minded comments. Thanks for the help MATE, dousche bag.

LOl yeah rx8s are crap my dad had one, stock for stock I walked past him. His average fuel consumption was near half what I could manage and the overall build quality was poor, surface rust on a fairly new car isn't a good start! He seemed to enjoy it but he couldn't justify the economy. 14mpg on a modern car is dire! So its gone. pics of the proper sports car now please.:lol:

Not to mention this is a cast wheel, cast metals are notoriously hit and miss to weld. When you weld it you will change the material proprieties in that section, this means that when put under stress (bumps even heat)it will react differently to the rest of the wheel. This is a recepie for another fracture. Sorry to say but I think you would be bonkers to weld it.

I'm glad you brought this up Paul. What exactly has been done thus far by anyone? Just so we don't repeat things.

It tends to indicate that injector has failed.

Hahaha that has to be the largest sticker I've seen in a long time.

The latests rumours are for a hybrid sad to say guys.

Trouble is they peaked too soon and missed the boat. The original fair lady was a true raw lightweight sports car. Those kind of cars are rare these days due to expectations for ac and more computers than a space shuttle. Hence the popularity of these little track cars that are becoming more common like the atom. Even lotuses are fat over complex and heavy these days. Then Nissan became a little complacent the 280zx and first 300zx (z31) were over weight and under gunned. When the z32 arrived it changed the game, it was a proper sports car as we know it these days. Comparable to the best Porsche had to offer Ferrari looks the whole package. When the 350 came out they wanted to bring back that little sports car, to an extent they got it right. Apart from it wasn't light or a Porsche baiting monster. It was simply a mid range sports car. The 370 suffered the same fate. If they really want to bring back the zed car they need to step up, the gtr got re done with a 600 hp monster a world class car like its predesseors. Thez35 should be a proper sports car. A 500 to 600 hp rwd gtr coupe type thing. Stop blurting gtrengines in jukes mr Nissan and give us a rwd coupe that's equipment to a proper porcshe of today.

Top stuff

This is great that you guys are doing this. Really there should be a meet going on north and south every month.

It's nice to see you over here rose, have you popped up a thread for those that have missed it on your project. It's come along way over recent years.

I guess the answer is when the stock level of adjustment no longer meets your requirements. What I was referring to though is this "you need aftermarket adjustable arms if your going lower to stop you eating tyres" thing we all hear.

Miester coil overs have a good rep and good value. Do you want fixed or adjustable ones?

Ok well go buy/borrow one they are cheap enough and very useful. The first trick you can try is with the engine idling place the tip of a screwdriver on the injector you should here it clicking the same as all the rest. Turn the engine off disconnect the injector connector and clean the connections then use your multimeter to ohm the injector this is much simpler than it sounds. Remove the plug and observe what colour the tip is. Give it a sniff, is it wet? Does it smell of fuel? Pop the plug in the coil pack and get an assistant to fire over the engine. Is there a spark? If not swap over with a known working plug and pack from another cylinder and try again. At the end of the day you need 4 comments for it to work. Fuel, spark, compression and timing. If you were outta time it would be more than a single cylinder missing. If it was compression the car would smoke/steam. Therefore it's likely fuel or spark related. Just need to isolate which is wrong and which component isn't doing its job.

At what point do we need to start thinking about these. My cars dropped by 30mm all round and the alignment still aligns.
