yes, and essentially im going to do very much that. expect i would like to lower the kick in point. as iirc the kick in point for the eletric fan is pretty high. just wanna safegaurd the little vg i suppose its paranoia but its also a little control.

ah, did we not tell you lol. unfortunatly the stock cooling is adequate. on a hot day with spirited driving or hard traffic jams it can send the zeds temp north. unfortunatly the stock water gauge is crap! basically if it starts to register a warmer than normal reading your already over heating. fortunatly yours sounds like awell looked after motor mate, but many of us have had to do some extra work to keep the temps down.

well its how alot of these after market kits that replaces viscouses work. but i want to run them together.over the top maybe, but for the few quid it would cost well worth the peave of mind.

as above really, im going to make the ac redundant, and add a more accurate water temp gauge. during this process it seems a good idea to use the existing fan, as addintional cooling. nissan wisely madethe ac fan an emergency overheat failsafe, however id like to lower the limit it cuts in at. id be maintaining the viscous, adding a junction fitting to allow me to run the aftermarket temp gauge. so what else whould i need and where can i purchase the parts to make this idea work.

not me, its not going anywhere thsi weekend

thats what id call burgandy lol. against ag2 its v dark lol. you notice when you see mine at some point.

which ones you changing ryan? i literally just took mine to a local hydrolics specailist and they reused the ends and redid it all with fresh hoses etc, i alos went with the new style hydralic washers rather than the copper ones. the one that rund along the subframe is easy the other two require incooler ducting removal, also easy just time consuming.

ah right god bless the pig iron lol. i know what you mean about the overbore theirs a write up i was reaing that hellraiser pointed me towards that makes for good reading where they went pretty far on the overbore and did some crazy stuff like cryogenic treatment and resin filling the block etc.

cowpatmatt has one thats used in bdcc, so it may well be worth getting in contact with him in terms of that. and in reality 300 bhp is enough for the road, and 400 bhp zed is enough of a handfull for most people other than those that want to take their dyno sheet to the pub.

oh yeah ive seen the size mate, poking out your nose like an angry mutha lol.

think you need a trip to zedworld mate.

why the hell not.

also considering the damage caused to that piston, how badly was the bore affected? will the 0.5mm over bore be enough to take up the damage and leave a clean bore? you going to hav etthe water passage cleaned up? to allow the water to get to 5/6 better?

ouch! lesson learned hey. at least you can take the knowledge you aquire from this epposide, and we as a club that havent seen this happen before (like myself) can learn the importance of a proper afr. what front mount you using again mark? i swear and someone will correct me but someone here was looking at alot of the front mounts and many of the non big brand ones ie not greddy etc were only as good as stock and one was worse! so it would also be intersting to know what the cahrge temp was. obviously fueling has been the killer here, but it would be good to elminate some other factors while your at it.

do i get some rep :P lol

i did point this out afew weeks back that the prices were on the up slightly and number for slae esp lower quality ones were reducing. i think we are seeing the "bargin"(basket case) zeds being scrapped off now. i wont be selling mine anytime soon if i can help it though.

yes a silver 92 is very normal. the colours i can think of off the top of my head are black bottle green purple red burgandy pearl white pearl yellow midnight blue turquoise blue think tahts it. dont think they ever did a plain yellow or and pale blues greens etc

so your looking at around 2k there, builds up quick hey.

ahhhhh ok thats good. any ideas on the cutting in point?

anyone care to clear up with me what happens when you do a brake upgrade regaurding the abs? how can it be connected upto the new calipers? and would the increase in breaking need adjustment to allow them to be used to full effect without the abs cutting in at the wrong point?

not to mention the old bids that dont fix the rot on thier morris because its not an mot failure, because they no longer need one!

reminds me of a very funky simon

sadly if you walk around carparks these days most new cars fords etc have really bad orange peel. :(

Its 40 a year for christ sake. they should start the tax exemption rolling again

Real shame bud, we are over due a meet in this part ofthe country.
