this thread is so fookin funny, cant believe i missed it. BTT so we can take the piss out of Chris some more (you gay Liberace turdburgler)!! LMAO :D

LOL! how could i remind you, i didnt know it was on it until after i saw it!! :p

1st thing is check the oil level to make sure its not been overfilled, as this causes fluid to be forced out of the breather.

on Mind, Body & Kick Ass Moves. Gary's with the flamer kit IIRC

£65??? were one of the cheapest in the UK at £75ph. most are charging £90+ now (all plus VAT of course!!) :eek: :x:

yeah, about £5.50 + vat ea, & about 3.5 hrs labour IIRC to fit too!!! costs more to replace plugs than the basic service costs on V engines (the V6 & V8's have twin spark also)

yeah. i like the mongoose. retains the quad pipes (only larger ;)), nice sound without being too loud (IMO!)

Mongoose do a 1 piece (each side) cat back exhaust for around £500-550 IIRC. fully stainless & guaranteed for life too :)

got one of these for me to play with when i get back to work: http://www.mbusa.com/brand/models/SL65.jsp they had to electronically limit the torque figure, unlimited it produced 885 ft/lb of torque!!!!!!!! :bow: they were worried it would shred the transmission! running twin tubbies at 22psi! mental!! :dance:

most german cars use quite soft discs on their cars. this does cause them to wear (& corrode :( ) quicker, but allows the pads to grip better. they should last a lot longer than that tho, sounds like its a round towner with gentle braking - not good for discs

were moaning cos petrol is going up to $2 a gallon!!! :rofl:

well, back from my 2 week tour of Florida. top time! :dance: did i miss anything good here?? i want a quick "in no more than 20 words" reply of what i missed from you all ;) found out something interesting from a motoring mag while i was out there. the origional "Dream" ad for the 300ZX was pulled from TV in the states just after it was aired as loads of PC correct groups complained!! :rolleyes: :D

iv told you before Andy, im not carrying out any of your fantasies! :nono: :rofl:

£5 is a bloody good price, £1 is even better. £500 in nowhere near as good ;) HTH

Cheers knob jockey, stop playing with cars & do some IT suff :xxx:

i wont be posting on here for a couple of weeks, off to florida tomorrow :dance: :hyper: :dance: sorry but you'll have to direct all tech enquiries to ex IT bods on here ;) :D

clean around the wheel arches etc frequently with a pressure washer during the winter & protect the paintwork with a decent polish

some more piccies of some cheaper cars who had the same idea as us (bet the organiser turned up tho ;) :D)

yup. good day & top food :duffer: damn, you got online before i could ban you jock! :tongue: & thanks for steve for organising it - try to turn up next time!! :rofl: some piccies:

cant you scan in the whole article for us??? :D

different terminology for the same thing really MAF = Mass Air Flow sensor, most of these are hot film type sensors to tell the ecu the mass of air entering the cyls AFM = Air Flow Meter, early meters simply had a flap which moved a variable resistor to tell the ecu the amount of air flowing, the ecu would also need to take a seperate air temp reading to calculate the mass of air

different sized hampsters ;)

no no no! it really is used!! not like asbestos hampsters or anything!

Yup, is supposed to maintain a stable pressure regardless of tyre temps. also meant to be better for your alloys as it reduces any risk of corrosion.

its generally better to replace as a pair unless theres very low mileage on them. chris@getgreddy does a selection so speak to him. yup, deffo worth fitting at the time of installation, tho the upper arms & tension rods are pretty easy to fit anyway
