rattle, sounds pretty bad
Loads needs to come off to remove the cam covers, you can change most of the bolts once you whip the fan off but to remove them its water pipes boost pipes ptu and a few other bits i forget.

Try slackening off a few of the bolts that hod the timing belt cover on, they are allen bolts with built on rubber washers but sometimes due to age the rubbers perish, when this happens the bolts can be overtightened and in some cases the timing belt may foul the covers, if i were you id get mjp to get you some new cam cover bolts see if that fixes it befor you have it all taken apart again.

where to get a sticker number-plate?
You will find fancyplates are not a legally registered number plate supplier therfor they cant sell plates for road use even though they can still make them. Only suppliers registered with dvla can stamp the BS number on them, and when you do this you are declaring that the plate you have made comlies with all the current legislation. Anyone needing plates is welcome to google 1st Class Autoparts in Nuneaton, give me a bell and ill sort some out, Ive just enquired about becoming a trader on the sxoc so fingers crossed that should raise some business, Might give the Z club a try too.

What do you collect?
Model cars. Oh and old broken zed parts!!!

The Inbetweeners.
The imbetweeners is one of the most well written comedys on telly at the moment, i rate it right up there with peep show. I saw the teacher in it perform stand up live at careys a few years ago and he was absolutly brilliant, i wasnt suprised to see him win "take the mike" a few years later on ITV.

Nearside front steering rack gaiter needed!
They look like QG1000's to me, should be about half that price if they are!

I can get the self adhesive reflective in for you if you struggling, be about a fiver, and i can print anything you like on it, however it would be classeed as a sign and not strictly legal for road use, couldnt print the BS symbol on it required by law.

Go buy a QG1000 from any motor factors, they a near perfect fit for a zed rack, only cost you about 7 or 8 quid for the pair and most places will keep em on the shelf.

Pulled over for my plate today
One font yes, new charles wright, but they are still allowed to be done in standard, 3D, carbon or hi line. The reflective isnt alowed to have any shadow graphics on it at all now.

rear discs and pads.
Maybe i could list a couple of sets on ebay and put a link up if the mods dont object. Price would be £57.50 inc vat per disc Any interested parties can say I on here and maybe i could push the supplier for a bulk discount on a bulk buy.
-
rear discs and pads.
Unfortunatly not, i priced them up with one of my suppliers who do not supply direct to the public, £50 to £60 is what i could sell them out at through my shop. Dont think i can put a direct link up as it would be classed as trading though.

Close Call........
So if i rob a bank and the cops dont catch me there and then with my bag of swag over my shoulder theres nothing they can do? So whats the point in shows like crimewatch then?

Yes, false plates maybe, but it doesnt mean everyone with a mis spaced front reg has to sign the sex offenders register. The purge is due to the fact that the new generation of speed cameras and A.N.P.R struggle with everthing other than standard reg plates, so the computer throws it out and an officer has to spend their time processing manualy thus costing the police time and money.

No they dont, they can report you for dangerous or careless driving without stopping you at the scene, first you know about it is the NIP landing on your doorstep.

It is perfectly legal, if you have a a 5 or 6 digit reg you are allowed to display a short standard plate (370 by 110mm) if you want an eu logo on these you have to have a "medium standard" (420 by 110mm) and all 7 digit and new style plates 51 on must be made on "standard" 520 by110mm. There is only one legal font which is new charles wright, however this can be done in 4 different styles, standard, 3d, carbon or hi line. We are registered number plate suppliers all our plates are computer printed, if the plate is illeagal the program wont allow it to be printed without warning you first! And also the DVLA audit us on a regular basis, so believe me i wouldnt risk losing my plate licence on a dodgy plate.

No its not, you have to have the maker name and postcode on it but there is no size requirement, a line of any text can still be written above it.

Chance in a million!!!
Its not that amazing, we sold a highchair to a guy from hinckley on ebay, he came to collect in a veil satis and i was saying that the mrs loves renaults but i like my jap cars, to cut a long story short he had a 300 too and is on here too.

Stu, if you want me to do one of the small plates for you give me a buzz, also i can make the maker name at the bottom very small (between 1 and 2mm) and you can have something written above it in bibber letters eg Silver Streak or Stuart Waterman etc. Might look a bit better than Manlove Motors!!!!

how can I test / check my TPS
Sorry to hijack the thread but does anyone know the cost of these at nissan?, ive got a supplier who does them quite reasonably and was wondering if its worth getting a load to ebay. Also anyone know the cost of a gen MAF as may well be able to pattern these too.
