Is that your engine out or just a general pic? It might be possible to change them but I doubt it with the engine in place... They're just your standard water/fuel pipe stuff. Do a search on "water bypass" etc and you'll find a load of info on taking the plenum off and removing loads of those pipes that aren't really needed. Depends if you're just wanting to patch it up but I'd suggest doing the water bypass if the engine is out - will save lots of problems in the future.

Saw this on the news today :shock:

Do you know why it has a fog light? :rolleyes: If you remove the headlight switch it makes the dash look much smoother too...

So you'd rather get bitten by this? :shock: :rofl: Wikipedia is great :D

I just tell them from the start that I'm sleeping with everyone in town, that way they don't get any suprises :rofl:

I was once in a rowing boat on Loch Lomond when a huge male swan took a dislike to us and came flying/running across the water at us. They're pretty scary things when they launch at you like that and you're stuck in a little boat. It crashed into the boat and had a good peck at us before we scared it off with the oars but it was probably just protecting a nest nearby or something.

:shock:

Remind me, is that lighter or darker than s**t brown? :rofl:

I'd use a set of traditional Japanese throwing spanners :smash: :rofl: but... the Queen will be having words with you if you touch them :slap: :nono: During the Middle Ages, the mute swan was considered to be a valuable commodity and was regularly traded between noblemen. The owners of swans were duty bound to mark their property by way of a succession of unique nicks in the beaks of their birds. It was the duty of the Royal Swanmaster to organise the annual swan-upping, a tradition that survives to this day. The role of swan-upping was to round up unmarked cygnets and once the parentage of the cygnets had been established to the swanmasters satisfaction, the birds could be marked appropriately and returned to the wild. The ceremony exists these days in a largely symbolic form, although as an exercise it is useful in monitoring the condition and number of swans on the Thames. The only two companies that still observe the tradition of owning swans on the Thames are the Worshipful Companies of Vintners and Dyers. The Royal swans are no longer marked, but an unmarked mute swan on the Thames is regarded as belonging to the Queen by default. The Queen still maintains an officially appointed Swan Keeper, and the ceremony still takes place on the Monday of the third week in July. The Queen has a prerogative over all swans in England and Wales. The Swan Keeper also despatches swans all over the world, sent as gifts in the Queens name. Like many ancient English traditions its origins are based on protecting the rights of the rich and powerful. Centuries ago the swan was considered a culinary delight, but owning swans was a privilige initially restricted to the Crown who then extended ownership to two City Livery companies; The Company of Vintners and the Company of Dyers. At one time any unauthorised person found guilty of killing a swan could be sentenced to transportation for seven years and even up to 1895 could receive seven years hard labour. That's your lesson for today! :rofl:

Duffer is well known for owning the only brown, lightened Z in the UK :rofl:

I've raced one and it was pretty even but mine isn't exactly standard :) Got past him in the end on a long straight.

It's time for that Veilside kit and shocking pink respray you've always wanted :D :rofl:

I choked on a mexican because I'm cool like that... :shock:

Yeah Cybernet posted it above but for those that missed it check it out! http://www.kreamed.cjb.net/ Click on KREAM Team at the top, dear oh dear oh dear! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

All from JAE 2002 back in the good old days of the show and this forum :)

Here's some of the Z/Pug/Supra :smash: Pug lights, no no no! :nono: Some very nice work on the arches: Deep dish or what?: The rear Supra lights were awful and could never be shown on a Z forum so I didn't get a pic :(

Here's the car and part of "the crew", "posse", "homies", "d1ckheads" :xxx: The big man himself with random devil child staring me out: :rofl: Vinz looking in for bling (notice all the usual Z Centre parts which are his own design): Standard Strosek rear end but with an undertray cut out and surf/ironing board attachment:

Didn't know you'd met him and found out what a c0ck he is :xxx: I always loved his car, was his, Macca's and Johnny Grasshoppers cars that made me go for the wide body kit. I spoke to him at JAE in 2002 and asked where he'd bought various parts of the kit and he wouldn't tell me anything, just said it was all his own custom design. I pointed out that most of it was Strosek copies and he denied it saying it was all his own design and walked off... :xxx: Yes he's customised the arches and the front and rear bumper slightly but other than that it looks like mine :rofl: Later that night him and his "homies" started on Johnny from GPS as he walked back to his tent alone. Nice guys :mac1: Got loads of pics of his car but they all need re-sizing.

Make sure you tighten everything up after he's messed with your car ;) :rofl:

Sorry just been a bit busy :smash: I've still got the pump here, Wozza was meant to be sending me your address ages ago and I forgot about it since. Send me a PM and I'll get it in the post :) xxx :rofl:

Just make sure that however you do it you don't get a kink in the pipe and restrict the water flow round the engine ;)

I know that's what I thought! LOL Thought you two had come up with another crazy idea to fit them on Wozza's Z :rofl:

Bald head? :rofl:

We all know there's more where that pic came from! Next one please! :rofl:

Have to agree it's an awesome upgrade :nana2:
