You would be better to take it for a spin, get it warm. Most engine wear happens in the start up before the oil has circulated. You prob wont notice any damage, I use mine all year round.

Count me in if its within 50 miles which gazes place def is lol

Dont smooth it, been there done that. Three main problems 1 from certain angles it ruins the looks of the car, makes it look lanky and unsporty. 2 it makes it harder to park, you loose your referance point. 3 its supposed to be there as production went on it got bigger infact. And they ehere trying to keep costs down

Maybe they have popped the vaccum pipes that go to the recircs backwards so they are constantly open thus not allowing you too boost easy done.....

I was also tempted to create a rear one complete with diffuser

I also thought about it but if it came loose... Plastic vs metal flapping acrossthe lanes hrm....

yeah i was thinking that aswel ian, looks like your gonn abe starting from fresh under there.

i think thats gotta be the first modded engine ive seen thats had extra pipework and crazy added under the bonnet very interesting though. does it run atm?

lol we will just take a hairdryer loop round some vac hose and turbo the ped hahahaha eletric turbo

the worrying thing is someone somewhere is buying these?! probally the same people with the speaker box that makes your non turbo car go whoosh

This happened to me in my sprinter last winter, I came such a abrupt stop I thought if hit thr parked cars at first, very confusef when got out xand there was zero damage. Scarey

Mine has corrosion there but dosent leak, guess someone replaced it at some point.

Agreed patience.

probally beyond a rebuild if its that bad. compression test will reveil all, but as said the heads will be warped at least, due to the cast iron bottom end and aluminium heads cooling at different rates. pull it out and pop in a new one.

autos dont have much respect in the uk lol

mugen of corse? :angel: dunno what you lot are trying to say hahaha homos

speak to hellraiser he has a chip fitted to his n/a

as above nismo is nissan motor sports like amg for merc etc. i think the titanium was more a sales gimick than anything else.

very very very common. pop the bonnet, on the plenum theres a plastic throttle cover under there at the front you will find a rubber pipe, with two jubeliees on it, thats probally the culprit. moving further back still under the cover is another one that goes from the fpr under the plenum that also is a common leaker. try investigating on a cold engine with a torch. soon as its warm the pipe expands and seals the leak. hth

ha tahst n/a s for you. all jokes aside though you can pick up alot of car for very little these days if your prepared to go for far eastern hatches, we picked my mrs car up for about 2k once we had had the cambelt and new shoes all round for her. it does 50 tio the gallon is a 55 reg had done less than 70k and is a cheap to insure and tax is £30 spot on for her.

lol oh yeah none of them actually watch it its liek a habbit it just goes on to be talked over you end up knowuing more about it than they do lol.

hopefully debbie, as then when she gets caught she will go out the series and my mrs will stop taking the piss taht i used to fancy her lol.

i know the feeling, when my zed went id been doing 80 hour weeks for 13 weeks straight, all nights and evenings. i finished work at 6 instead of 7am and thought hey il take it for a blast while the roads are clear, water pump seized it parted with its coolant and that wa steh end of that engine. i had to sit there 500 metres or so from my house for two hours waiting for the tow truck, at a majour xroads taht got buiser and buiser didnt wanna just leave the car there alone. :(

Correct me if im wrong but there fed from the oil tree and return via the sump, so dont have anything to do with the block itself?
