why is this being angled to take place somewhere where the GTO's will have a distinct advantage on launch? would seem fairer to have somewhere where traction is not an issue, i don't suppose it will matter though, I say stick a bottle of slick50 under the zeds wheels and it will still beat them :)

nope the time is correct

I'm making plans for engine next year, i need to do the valves and whilst its out i'm gonna make i want to make it bulletproof, will be posting a bit in the week about it i guess

http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=25738&highlight=keyring a quick search....

Cleaned the AIV valves, Throttle bodies,cleaned tps, reset ecu and put some injector cleaner in the zed on saturday, I still havn't got round to fitting grounding kit but the zed is running better than ever :), Its a lot nicer when you do these things yourself, it took about an hour to clean the TB's, it was a bit worrying on startup, had a rougher idle than what you would expect with 2000cc injectors :D, also a lot of smoke, but i did get trough a can of carb cleaner.... Will the engine idle at 1000 RPM until it has gone out of learning mode or do I need to readjust the TPS? Next weekend Im going to fully strip out the AIV's for proper cleaning as there is still a very slight gurgle which I assume is just some water that was stuck elsewhere that couldnt get drained, fit grounding kit and boost gauge and turbo timer. Then its a total oil change (gearbox, diff and engine), spark plug change, fix a slight leak on the NPS and she will be ready for proper for spring :). Halford are selling axle stands for 10quid a pair at the moment, I'm defiently going to invest in these as its scary to work on the zed under the jack. My only injury was smashing my head on the front discs, nice bruise there now, women love bruises :). The car is defiently becoming less daunting mechanically as I slowy do more stuff to it, jobs that take an hour now I can probably do a lot quicker next time and they also aid doing future jobs quickly. My toothbrush had a funny taste to it this morning though...... :D :D

we do have a club keyring, there have been cost problems which means it has been delayed slightly

no its an auto box, the reverse gear went about 6000 miles ago, (its got 6500 on the clock) :rofl:

im bringing my micra anyway

Sounds like you still have a small air leak,

but more accurate :D

Taken Without Owners Consent :D

Still trying to beat the 22 car record of the first meet :), its well worth the trip, im getting there early to park up :)

wow, a new head only costs 40 pence

well I have a video of me going 155mph, it looks like im going a lot slower than I thought 155mph would look like. Look at F1 cars, they are doing over 200mph at points and it looks very slow from the onboard cameras.

240-0 in .001 seconds when he hits a tree :eek:

in which case the title should be More yorkshire pudding vicar ;)

PCV valve problems caused smoking from my engine, I changed them and the smoking went. and they can cause the dipstick to blow up, they release pressure from the crank, if they arnt working the natural path is through the dipstick.

what needs doing ron?

is that for the in car TV broadcasting unit?

piston #4!!! simons curse has left him finally

How long ago did you order yours? I havnt received mine or a reply in 5 weeks, I'm geting seriously pissed off and am about to claim my money back from him.

I used to, but the more i looked into it the more I found the "proof" the more i found it to be rubbish, I won't believe in them until I am one i guess ;)

at 20 i paid about £2000 with no NCB (FPF&F) (sabre) at 21 I paid about £1350 with 1 years NCB (FPF&F) (Insure shop/sabre) at 22 I pay about £1024 with 2 years NCB (Fully comp) (admiral) sabre is your best bet as a young driver. I've always had my own policy.

The meet will take place at chafford hundred, this is just outside of lakeside. This is the same venue as last time and I think it was agreed to have a nice sized carpark and the food inside was nice. A map can be found at the following location http://www.streetmap.co.uk/newmap.srf?x=559081&y=179360&z=1&sv=559250,179250&st=4&ar=Y&mapp=newmap.srf&searchp=newsearch.srf This time the arrow points to the carpark The date is the 18th April 12pm, if ya interested say aye :) 1.
