Fair enough. </Geek> Ordered mine last night.. leds look so much nicer on other newer cars - these should look great complementing my existing zmanalex LED brake clusters

I know. But no.

I've got these too, mated with Eibach ARBs and PowerGrid adjustable drop links - they are great. Yep expect £25 for the rear extenders. I've had my Zeta S on for a couple of years now and in all weathers, near daily driver and lives outside. Meister strongly recommend buying their expensive anti-rust coating (ARC). In hind-sight I wish I'd done that instead of using something like teflon spray, to help prevent some tarnishing (on springs especially)... got to keep them looking beautiful

Tempted by this. I think I'd connect the unit's brighter 'brake' lights to only the fog light circuit only as suggested by Apex above, unless a single dedicated bright fog is found (has it yet?). I think it may be technically illegal* to connect both brake light and fog light circuits via diode to a common light BTW.. Apparently also, as well as mandatory single, matched twin fogs is acceptable but these must not be confused with brakes - fogs at least 10cm from brake light source. Smoked look nicest, yes. As for the water ingress - obviously if there is a crack somewhere, that'd let water in, but I'd hazard a guess that the sheath around the wires could catch and let water in if it's not installed with a downward facing U bend in it if there is water trickling from somewhere - and in any case some extra sealant wouldn't hurt. * Says here - schedule 11 part 1 section 10 (1989 regs - but they seem to be the ones in force still) http://www.legislati...chedule/11/made Digressing slightly - I fancy a modern red/chrome/satin wrap on my car too - but the wife seems to want to go back to Australia, so my car (which I've tipped tons of effort into) might end up with being sold although it should really get a grand viking burial instead yep..bitter.. Seems importing old *modified* Jap cars to police state Australia is virtually insane. Spending more money on my car is looking less likely at the moment ..but probably can't stop myself from splurging though

Passed first time in an Opel Ascona 2.0. Six weeks later, crashed it

Dibberations. PM'd

Happy birthday yo!

Hey Andy It can be a long process, but remember to keep the faith

^^ Lexi is one chilled out pussy there, love it

Dan, I feel your pain. You have done the right thing - she is better off at rest when there was nothing that could be done.

Very pleased to see this - glad the silver warrior can be rebuilt! Bionic

I might have an iso of win7 lurking somewhere I could we-tranfer to you if you wanted? Good effort on the fabrication btw - let the blue screens of death begin

Ancient.. ...not

Smoke, cold, very short movement, fuel smell out the back, not tuned - and I take it you've got your big injectors in? Assuming you've not dislodged any sensors, plugs are in the right order (should be as it worked before), my quick guess is it's just flooded. Just a guess though. Could just try cranking with fuel relay pulled and foot on accelerator for a few secs, then put it back together to see if it fires? Or just wait a bit to see it it clears then try again? You do really need to be on a new map with big injectors... ...Just saw you added a bit about ignition timing - cam or crank sensors would be worth a check if it doesn't clear.

Damn! Goes without saying - glad you are OK. Poor Zed, you loved that car

Guess ill just order one of these then. Probably be fine. I have JDM so didn't comment, but as you've had no response - I have an OBDMATE OM500 JOBD which is a cable handheld gadget and works fine for my JDM (Note: OM500/JOBD won't work with UK BTW). Most cabled OBD II handhelds do what they say on the tin for accessing DTCs (I believe) Disclaimer: Don't blame me if it is rubbish after all

Love the GTR for it's absolute epicness but... Maserati Aston GTR Just sayin'

GLWTS! One of the best kept (possibly the best) s/c conversions out there. The V8 (or 3.8V6) will have a lot to live up to

Well done! That looks brilliant

I voted Maserati personally. There are a couple of both types often floating around here in Bucks, no doubt owned by the landed gentry See the Aston? nice but meh, posh bloke's Jag, but see a Mas and I think WOW that is a stunningly attractive car It's Italian for heavens sake! Both are adequately fast but the Maserati has a sleek exotic flair IMHO, whereas the Aston is just a bit pipe and slippers. As for either being a daily driver - hey you like to work on them yourself - savings to be had there to put forward to paying for premium expensive parts* My 2p, but you are welcome to spend it how you like * I've no first hand idea if either of these models are unreliable - except I did see David Beckham standing next to a broken down Aston at Bignells Corner once. The 80's era Maseratis (e.g. Bi Turbo) had a bit of a reputation IIRC, but that was decades ago.

RIP Scrap.. (Glis Glis) Sept 2010 - Sept 2015. Found and rescued him from certain death in the woods, revived and kept him in a HUGE cage in our lounge. He loved his pipes, pears and organic hazelnuts.. See ya matey

We can rebuild it. Better. Stronger. Faster. We have the technology. showing yer age there matey I like the old shows. "Bidy Bidy bidy" guess the show. Lol. Hated that robot

Hi Mark - thanks for commenting 1 - yep the K multiplier applies a factor to all the cal data values - so pushing the whole cal range up or down in the ECM's MAF ADC space. BFS is proportional to MAF times K. 2 - BFS is lowered at a given MAF voltage when lowering the cal data values - and as timing is dependant on BFS, yep, the timing tables will be indexed at lower BFS points for a given MAF voltage. The ignition timing map is 52 across a large range of BFS 9.72 and above at 4800 rpm and above. Might be an idea to knock it down to 51 at higher rpm if it appears to start knocking - although the knock data line hasn't produced any flags yet. I am thinking of developing a knock listener (I remember you said the Nissan sensor isn't the most sensitive thing in the world) with high impedance amplified coupling and some DSP filtering to band pass around 6.5KHz (TBD) or there abouts to simply interrupt my logger and flash a big LED every-time a knock event might happen. It's going through the timing maps like this at the moment (ignition still creeping up at the high rpm end and not getting pulled back). 3 - excellent, I will feel safe chipping a bit off the high end of the fuel compensation map which changes up very suddenly at high load/rpm. Should fix the AFR dive at high rpm. 4 - I'm sticking with your targets at the moment - they look pretty fine to me I think I'd need to be borrowing your dyno before fiddling with those Great fun all this. I keep explaining to the wife's female friends that modding sports cars not a mid life crisis - it's the ultimate man project as there are so many fun and interesting engineering parts to cars. And we all like going faster.
