buying duff parts

from above you can see the bottom pokes out more than the front, it dont seem too much but by the time you get to the end of the bumper that length exaggerates the twist here you can see it is somewhat fitted, by that i mean the other side hanging off, its a case of fit one side or the other not both not one to give it i fitted it without the metal bracket, the one on the floor. with a little force it can just about meet the studs on the wings. but when you compare the sides the passenger side is straight whereas the drivers side is kicking out towards the bottom. can also see how the centre scoop is changing size from one side to the other

buying duff parts
Story goes a few months ago (without naming names) I brought a fibreglass bumper here on the forum and it looked great, so as its fibreglass gave it a test fit.......... bent! Don't fit i was expecting some fettling but when you take a closer look its had some rather extensive repair on the drivers side. messages the seller..... no reply. but as I was expecting work to need doing to it anyway I left it. but now iv taken it to my bodywork guy who has written it off im feeling a bit hard done by. iv got oodles of photos showing its twisted but now got no clue if its too late to at least try sort this out? just looking for advice Thanks :3

long life power flow cat back
hey guys time to get this out my shed xD came on my zed but wanted something louder, little scuff underneath from the poxy speedbump outside my work and a bit of rust on the tailpipes but is a nice sounding exhaust. very quiet at idle and no drone on the motorway :) open to offers xD
-
intermittent smoke
never done a compression test but will have to look into it
-
intermittent smoke
i have though about the pcv valve but thought it to be too coincidental that a week after messing with the exhaust it starts doing it. only dose it on a hot engine. iv rebuilt 300zx turbo's before but never fitted them, and sadly don't have them any more. flogged them cheep as they still needed balancing.
-
intermittent smoke
pretty sure i know the answer to this but after fitting a pretty much straight through exhaust im getting intermittent blue smoke out of my passenger exhaust im guessing its turbo seal time but it being intermittent seems odd. Always at idle but will be fine for a day then just do it while sitting thanks in advance :)

Clutch slipping
iv also been having problems with my clutch since i did my manual conversion. i used a good used clutch and always assumed it was that causing it. iv got a new clutch ready to put in but may have a play about with the pedal adjustment and the rod length. but i always thought the hydraulic system was self adjusting and the pedal adjustment was just to change the hight of the pedal. but i will give it a try :)
