crail again???
Nice1 :hyper: . I would actually prefer doing it before hand. Wouldnt like to fix it at Crail, first proper time out of standard boost and something else goes wrong or I cant handle it. I am pretty busy viewing houses Friday and Saturday and 3 hours of bike lessons. But no doubt I can cram it in somehow. PM me your mobile number and Ill give you a phone later on. (I have a cold and losing my voice, but you should be able to hear me :rant: ) Dave G

o2 sensor and crows foot socket
Forgot to say. One handy way I foun was to cut off the wires etc of the old o2 sensor, remove as much as you can from the unit itself (some plastic covers come off). Then you can use a long socket to get over it. Use a long extension bar to get in there and a UJ on the end and you should get it out. But I would only suggest this if you have all parts incase thread rips, ie 32mm socket and long enough extension bars and UJs. Cos once you strip the o2 sensor like that instead of it just not running properly, it will struggle to drive/idle. Goodluck with the sensor, they are a pain and there is no space. But thats a typical job on the Z Dave G

o2 sensor and crows foot socket
I had the same problem. I ended up putting too much force into it and ripping the thread. But as the o2 sensor sits into an adaptor I just replace that. £10 or something like that from MJP. Keep trying m8, but do take your time or youll end up doing what I did.

crail again???
Actually thats a possibility m8. Need to fit new actuator black box thingy and should be out of safety boost. Dont know if I will be able to get it done. If I meet up with you guys could I get a look at the boost hose set up within one of your engines. Think mines is muddled up nd need one to compare to. Only a 5 minute job. If it works out, and weather is good. I might come on the track too.

Just moved into my new house!
Do you have to pay for the accomodation facilities in the RAF etc. Do they pay any sort of subsistence to get your own place?

Scottish Meet - Sunday 23rd April

Scottish Meet - Sunday 23rd April
As title says guys the Scottish meeting will next be on the 23rd of April. As the previous poll only received 5 votes total with 3 of them being from Dundee. Its a pretty obvious meeting location (although I would have liked to get out of Dundee and visit some other places). I have came up with a plan of action: 12:00 Meet at Dundee Airport Car Park. Usual chatting, looking at each others cars and pictures taken. Good spot for this. Easy to find, if heading from Perth to Dundee, take right at roundabout on entrance to Dundee. Carry all the way along this road and you cant miss it on the right hand side near River Tay. 14:00-14:30 Convoy tour around Dundee. I have prepared a little schedule though and around Dundee. I was wanting to take everyone to the likes of Unicorn and Discovery but speed bumps wont suit all. We will drive past them though. In total it should only be about 10 miles (I will check this next time I am home) and 45 mins taking it easy. There will be no bad roads for low cars as I know the roads pretty well from having a stupidly kitted out Fiat. 15:15ish Arrive at Camperdown Retail Park where we could have the choice of the following food: - Weavers Mill, buy one get one meal all day long (full menu). Good food, lots of choice and cheap. - Ashoka Shak, indian food always promoting deals. Apparently nice but never been in. - McDonalds and KFC, no intro necessary :rolleyes: What does everyone think of the plan? It is still flexible so if anyone wants to change any of it let me know. I dont mind whichever way we do it for food, we could all sit together in any of the places or get takeaways from one of the 2 fastfood retailers. Or another option is to go to Kinsway West Retail park where the choice is Burger King or Pizza Hut. Common everyone post your name down, look forward to seeing everyone. Dave G

NZR Phones and Internet
BT is so expensive though. It would cost me something like: 99 installation 15 - 20 a month phone 15 a month internet Too much to pay just for games. I could always stay in work and use their high speed connection but it means staying in work even longer than the 12/13 hour shifts I already do. But I know that BT definately do it up here. Thanks Guys, Dave G

My First Trackday
While we are on the subject. Whats the purpose of tape over the lights. I see this constantly at race events. I know I am thick :confused:
-
NZR Phones and Internet
Just done a search and all that they advertise is ADSL. But I cant check for availability of suppliers to this as I need a phone line. I have also heard of 3g/vodafone cards that plugs into the PCMIA slot. But I imagine this is a slow type connection too and can be kinda expensive. Must operate off GPRS or WAP or something
-
NZR Phones and Internet
I want internet in my house, but I dont have a phone line. Is it possible somehow to get internet without a phone line. Or if any companies offer very cheap monthly phone rates (company mobile fully paid for). I just want this so I can play online games here on either PC, PS2 or Xbox. The only annoying thing is I need this in Thurso, Scotland where I work. Anyone any suggestions? Or games that they want beat at? :nelson: Dave G

Blitz Boost Controller Measurement.
Think they have a funny conversion for mpg. They say that in the US 15 mpg is 18 mpg in imperial terms. But they are quoting the ame units? Checked some of the other ones and it seems a very useful site for my work, Goodman

Blitz Boost Controller Measurement.
Not sure what they read but im sure if you type it straight into google it should pop the answer up. Unless it isnt a standard type of measurement
