That's what I was thinking mark, as the high pressure lines for oil down there are solid, and it would have to be soooooo hot to ignite it, more likely a split or leaking feul piece up on the plemum created a gas pocket of fuel or a pool and whoosh fire! Whatever, very sad and as dicky said £20 worth of fire extinguisher can save a car.

About 7ish this evening heading towards poole, anyone on here?

Leave them silver mate, gold on red doesn't work imoh, you need a cherry red in the red range, it requires a dark colour to pull it off the same applies to bronze to a certain extent. Black as said has been done to death, and you need a really really good finish to make it look right, coupled with the correct style of wheel. Personally with the colour of your car and the design of the wheel the stock silver colour keeps a good theme, it makes them look as if they should be there.

they are surprisingly quick the vxr ones, its all in the launch with the zed though isn't it, they seem to suffer getting off the line, but once they are going.....what time did you put up on that run?

I did, haven't done anything with the ecu other than connect up the neutral switch.

from what has been said on zed club we can enter from 6.30 onwards, il be aiming for that personally.

tune it cheap and it will blow up in your face, youd be better off getting it serviced first, running 100% then having it remapped and upping the boost, you will notice very little difference in bhp with exhausts etc, without the ground work done, and it will most likely not respond well to being poked about, its the classic mistake with the vg.

When you have to take the long route home because the bumps are too big its too low, when you can take the short route through the pot homes and the gravel its too high.

refresh my memory...What mods you running?

yes, a picture is irrelevant without the numbers. from my understanding at stock height, the gap between the tyre face and the edge of the arch is around 50mm, depending on how much your stock springs have sagged, megan lowering springs are about 50mm and see the tyre just kissing the arch edge. Mines lowered by 20mm in the back 30mm up front, which leaves me with a gap of about 20mm ish and 15mm ish up front.

lol I was wondering who would jump on that first, they have standpipes or weir towers, its so you can fit a sump and pump water round in circuits, almost mandatory for certain projects.

I could give you an answer, but the reality is the second hand tank market esp that size bracket is very poor. its only the 5ft plus tanks which are drilled which seem to hold value, shame because that's exactly what I could do with atm a 6ft with a pair of holes in it lol.

forecast for rain Tuesday and Wednesday! grrrrrrrrrr

mines half way lol, claybar is boring!

they look very similar to bbs ch r what diameter did you decide on?

one thing I will say is when I First did mine it drove like a bag of shit, I thought id ruined the car, what I didn't realise though is it had severly highlighted other issues id previously had, boost leaks or example. Sounds like you need to go over a few things with it. Weird its getting so hot that doesn't sound right at all.

Met the owner of the black na, he also owns a 260z and isn't a member of any clubs any longer. Didn't see the owner of the red one it was in ferndown industrial estate, sat on work equip's with a silver 300zx sticker down the side.

I dunno I need to speak to gaz tickets arrived today had forgot it was literally next weekend!

There will be a pair of us leaving from Bournemouth...

Been thinking about this today, but what about this? if the return line had been damaged, ie crushed, fuel wouldn't be able to exit the feul rail as designed and may cause over pressurisation and over fueling, so at idle the plugs get wet and higher in the range the car backfires, I dunno if that possible but just a thought. However saying that id ex[ect it to chuck out black crap if that was the case. I guess you just gotta start at the basics and work your way back.

lol, for some reason she likes it.....I dunno why but she does, if I feed it to her shes happy so im happy and il have a stress free bank holiday lmaf

theres a maccies literally next to were they hold these lol

Ugh I have a table booked at 7 for tapas in Bournemouth, so im busy. :( However my z will be floating around a lot this weekend.

I was thinking that however he did say the fuel pump and line were working correctly, I dunno if hes actually tested the pressure in the bay. the fuel lines are lovely and close to the chassis rails so its totally possible.
