Maserati GranTurismo S
They are pretty cheap now. Was looking at one the other day for about £9K on autotrader.

what do you think.......
Unfortunately I'm only just learning LOL I've probably spent the same in 9 years. So we can conclude: Owning a Z will cost you £2K+ every year on average :headvswal If only I could have paid it monthly by direct debit instead of a grand every time it broke down :cry: LOL

That's what I thought too :nono: Wondered if I had got the idea of anti drain wrong. So what's the point? LOL

Service kits
Underdrive pulley reduces weight and releases some power and makes the engine rev up quicker. If you fit a lightweight flywheel at the same time it's a very noticeable improvement. Not sure with the pulley on it's own as I did both.

what do you think.......
My advice is this: 1. Buy a car, high or low mileage it makes no difference. 2. Start saving. 3. Car WILL break down big style. 4. Spend every penny of your income and savings fixing it. 5. Repeat steps 2 to 4 on a monthly basis.

Removing plenum and doing a water bypass
Just hacksaw off the bits that stick out the sides if they bother you but they're hardly visible anyway.

Nova Camper
Yeah and when it gets windy what stops the tent from collapsing as there's no pegs :rofl: I'd like to see him get out of it in the middle of the night to go for a piss! :rofl: Like the axle stands underneath it LOL That's the most stupid idea i've ever seen but what do you expect from a Nova driver LOL

Removing plenum and doing a water bypass
You don't need to do that - I didn't. Just means there are no pipes sticking out the bottom but who cares?

Japfest crashes!
Just don't drive beyond your limits or in the wet and you'll be fine LOL

Removing plenum and doing a water bypass
The only downside would be if you lived in the arctic. It's only there to warm the intake system and stop it icing up in sub zero conditions. Upside is you remove 90% of the water pipes on the engine so you won't break down with water leaks in future and have to do the whole plenum off job again.

heavy steering
Like I said if you search for HICAS light all will be explained :rolleyes: This question gets asked daily and there must be hundreds of replies on the forum already.

Anything in your car you shouldn't have sir?
PMSL :rofl: I wondered what it reminded me of :hurl:

Fookin' Eurovision!
There should be more TV like this is you ask me! Crap for the ladies that's on for a minimum of 90 minutes so you can get a good game in. I actually got to finish off Gears Of War 2 that I've not been on in a couple of months and watched War Of The Worlds in peace :D Maybe that's all a bit war related to say in peace LOL

Is the HICAS light coming on? Either way do a search for HICAS light and you'll find loads of info on the likely causes :)

Maserati GranTurismo S
Anyone seen one of these? Been a couple round my way this week and I think they are absolutely stunning :bow: Pics don't do them justice. 440bhp too :)

when i win the lottery
I've seen a couple of new Maserati GranTurismo S's around this week and they are stunning. Pics I've seen really don't do it justice.

Looks about as perfect as you are ever going to get after 20 years :shock:

oil recommendations
So what's the advantage of these... Or should I do a search? :D

Bhp
How did they test it with no wheels? :rofl: Doesn't really mean anything if you don't know what the boost pressure was. Need a decent boost gauge on it to see what you're getting on high or low, the standard gauge is pretty useless.

classic cavelier convertible
Must all be collectors cars now I reckon. Don't think i've seen one in about 10 years! My bro had a Manta rally video and they were pretty awesome rally cars back in their day. They used to love going sideways at the slightest provocation even though they didn't have all that much power - 130bhp ish? Can't remember now. Can't have had much grip LOL

non turbo 2.0 litre skyline
Thats good cos that's the one that would fit :tongue: :rofl: I do like the R33 but I don't really see the point unless it's a real GT-R, I'd rather have a sensible runabout like a diesel, hatchback, estate if I've got a Z. That way you've got something practical too and would still be cheaper than running and insuring a Skyline.
