Oh okay, the one I said must have been jap then

The part number doesn't work on their website for me (http://www.gates.com/all-search-tools/site-search-results?keyword=4pk1038) but I was told to use Gates K040398 for the alternator. Someone can probably tell you the exact lengths though. Could a possibility be that you have aftermarket pulleys?

You should have an upgrade icon in the taskbar (next to the clock) if you are on windows 7 or 8. If not then just buy a £20 copy of windows 7 or 8 and then upgrade it.

They do look grotty, did you replace those with new shocks as well? EDIT: Oh nice you got meister all around now :)

It has been through 2 mots on the advisory. No brand though I suspect it is from one of those Japanese part supermarkets of cheap stuff, doubt there has been a crash (of the car, maybe to the suspension) because I have had the whole front frame unearthed and is all straight.

I can tell you that :( (There is a crack in it)

Silver or are you painting them black or something?

I seem to remember he has the hockey puck model with a harder suspension because it's better for track.

I just saw the mcm VH45DE turbo build and it looks like you are going to plently of power to work with. Going to look great :)

That's no problem, I really want to get mine finished and back on the road to so if not this one, I should have my Z up for the next one.

What time did Noz's make?

It makes a big difference, I changed mine couple months back and matches it much better.

I'll probably go to some earlier in the year as well don't worry :D

Okay, though thinking about it it probably might have had one since the end of the tailgate doesnt quite cover the top of the lights (by about 1cm), so maybe if it had one it would fit flush. Lol off topic again :)

Not too far for me, might try and make this.

Thats weird then, i got two non spoilered ones :lol:

Paint stripper shouldn't damage the metal

That's why I said I was surprised in the market differences. I know Zs are more popular over there, but I didn't think like double the price

The clear light lenses look really nice, must be a really neat car. Anything left to do to it :lol:

$15k seems a lot, didn't realise how much the american market differed, I'm pretty sure you wont have to worry about driving it more than 7500 a year though.

I think jaikai's old car had a purple plenum, but that one looks too vivid and funky for me.

Actually I agree, if you just have a powder coated plenum it might look out of place without extra shiney trim pieces. If you (bedzee) give me a nice picture of your engine bay I can Photoshop a purple plenum on if you want to see what it looks like.

Glad you're not getting a bright green one :ROFL: I think a purple plenum would look nice... It doesn't really matter if your going for 100% OEM or not, it's your car so do whatever mods you think will make your experience better. Of course that may still mean you want to keep it original, but don't restrict yourself to your own limitations if you would prefer to have a fancy engine bay.

Good job, saved yourself a trip to the garage!

In the video i posted, it connects two wires in the conzult port and flashes the check engine light, but you can also turn a screw on the ECU to get codes that way. Best to ask Jeff or the likes for specifics :) If you guys say its 100% the maf, then it might not be worth it, just its just a free way to gain a better understanding of whats going on, save yourself paying a mechanic to diagnose :P Number of long flashes for the first number, and number of short flashes for the second number.
