what is a fair price for a manual tt prop shaft complete with a half decent centre bearing. i found one on ebay for £170 that seems a tad steep to me.

cut the oval part of the hids and connect some spades these will slide into the square connetor block on the stock light loom.

look like supra calipers.

lol yeah it however isnt lol. if it was a crossflow or pinto engined car i would of ripped the car apart and rebuilt it twice over. honest lol.

ive had a problem with smoking ive got a thread running on the subject, im fairly sure its the rear tub seals but i wanted to eliminate other causes first before i went about pulling the block or anything drastic. im going to do the pcvs as a matter of corse. but i was wondering after last night if its a valve steam seal issue, id be quite happy to tackle it if needs be but obviously if its on a par hassle wise with tub replacement, as i suspected, id want to be damn sure its them. what i need to do is work out what the issue is before progressing forward, im pulling the plugs to check the state of them oil fouled etc this weekend. worse comes to worst jeff would you be able to provide me with a quote for diagnosis? the mot run sout in september so if its a majour failure rings or tub failure il take the car off teh road over winter to pull it apart.

is this job possible with the heads still on the block, when ive done the job previously on other cars the head has had to come off to clamp the valve and spring to remove the locating piece. but im aware with teh correct tool on some cars its possible without such in depth issues. however if the cam has to come out, the head may aswel really i suppose. just curious really.

I think that is one of that lepu from chopshops designs.

Nah mikey doesnt have some ikea furnature bolted to it. And that car is lacking a pink sticker.

thats not strictly true though is it. although a good guide. pcv's can jam introducing oil into the combustion cycle, causing blue smoke. oil can be deposited post combustion via turbo oil seals causing oil vapour which is a whitish blue colour. raw fuel can be dumped into the combuston chamber causing again white smoke. so not golden. i am going to do a compression/leakdown however to be sure. i did do it about 5k ago and all was well.

its a uk twin turbo manual and its clean you will sell that for 3k, at least try.

right had hellraiser round tonight we let it warm up and took it for a spin. at idle it barley smokes, first few boosts produce smoke and its actually a pale grey blue and heavy of oil smell. under general load it again barely smokes, it seems worst on low level rev overrun(high revs are fine) and when pulling away from a slow down at town speeds. we even gave it a good blipping when stationary and warm which produced very little. this keeping pointing out turbo and no turbo related syptoms. any ideas guys?

let me know if it works bud i hope it does. you could do with hooking up conzult or datascan to see the actual ecu temp value rather than the dash mounted gauge.

glue on the underside of the vent then use tennis balls to push the peeled up back down.

So a dioreah explosion but you wouldnt want one

Just a fashion statement Im sure I read to start being eco. Friendly you would have to do about 500k miles aband ybe highly un eco friendly batteries die after 200k miles

I know the blue one was the right colour but you were gonna havevto spray the thing anyway with all the kit you wanted on there. Plus you had the rot issue and the engine issues sadly in away this might be the best thing to have happened with it. I

Usually if its hose related it goes away when warm the opposite of what your describing. Do you get large black zotty desposits? Or black smoke on boost?i

trouble is it looks like a beetle on roids, and everyone will think you have no taste. which if youve got one of them you obviously wont. theres loads of them round here, common as muck for a supercar.

crack on then, my major problem was getting the darn thing off with the years of crap, and the fact the toe arm thread was fecked. i did the electricak tape trick but it definatly isnt quite aligned its ok but it defiantly pulls a little to one side more than before.

yeah tahts the sorta figure i was thinking it would end up at, bloody good value for money.

they allow a 296mm disc rather than a 280 odd that the z32 has as stock. not really worth it as said, the brembo ones off the r33/4 gtr are the next upgrade. popular other options include the z33/z34 calipers and discs(require redrilling of the mounting holes), brembo evo calipers with 350z discs(require a adapter) some have also used maserati calipers essentially anything bigger could be made to fit.

Let me know how you get on and whatthose adaptor bits cost you as I want to do the same :)

Xont see why not thats how you recieve them from bailey basically. Youve got two though right?

seen two this week.
