  1. But with what wheels is the question The way he's going he'll turn up with a different wheel on each corner
  2. Are you sure there is NO water ingres? If you've had weather in Cornwall as we have here in Surrey for the last couple of days it's been chucking it down, seems more than a bit of a coincidence.
  3. ** Edited Title to show date** Was a great event last year, unable to make it this year though
  4. I need some bits and bobs
  5. I tried a can of BG44k (awful design, need a funnel!) - I may try another but what's happening for me is when it's full it reads fairly accurately but once down to halfway, it goes a bit mad. So one of the sensors is definitely buggered Same here Rob, fixed it once and now it's gone crazy again, DTE showing nothing but Scanguage showing 163 miles to empty, I just rely on Scanguage now, it's always pretty spot on, if it says 2 gallons to empty it's usual almost spot on.
  6. Nice work, Jimbo, good job the health and safety police weren't around :lol: Safe trip to SF
  7. Bugger! Glad you are both physically ok. Chin up bud, you've lost a car, you can replace that.
  8. I really must do this next year. Go to Le Mans I mean
  9. Hello stranger!!
  10. Well, no one has PM'd me and I finally have some time to write a few words having done some miles on the new setup. You can see the fitting and how the car looks now on my build thread on P26 http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/58750-how-to-smurfadise-a-zedsplitter-repair-p27/page__st__500 Firstly, as someone has mentioned this already, I haven't yet fitted the extendable rear adjusters. Anyway onto the important part, initial thoughts at installtion were if they perform as well as they look then I'll be a happy bunny, Keyser and Bob who fitted them agreed they did look well engineered. No serious problems with the installation other than the usual obstinate Nissan bolts!! After much banter from Bob who celarly wanted me to "slam" the old girl we settled on a drop of 20mm all round, I have 19 inch wheels (no spacers) and there is absolutely no rubbing and no need to have the rear arches rolled which I really wanted to avoid. On the drive home from the Zed Shed I decided to take the A31 and have little play, nothing too arduous as the 4 wheel alignment hadn't yet been done but it was clear the car felt much improved and far more confident in corners, it was pretty good previoulsy as I have adjustable Motordyne ARB's fitted. Since then I have had the 4 wheel aligment carried out at Kaizer Motors, the rear camber is now -1.4 both sides (was over -2.0 both sides) and is bit more than I prefer so I'm going to have adjustable rear camber arms fitted just to preserve tyre wear a bit more. I've had a chance to push the car a bit now and I'm really pleased with the overall outcome, I have the damper setting at exactly half way between hard and soft for the time being, there are 32 clicks or notches between soft and hard, pleasingly those clicks are easy to feel through the adjusters. In summary the car feels a lot more sure footed and balanced in corners and I'm looking forward to getiing on some local B roads with a slightly harder setting. All in all money well spent as far as I'm concerned.
  11. Sorry i've not commented for a while, just to pick up on something mopedmark said, you definitely have an intake "suction" noise when you are revving the car. How long have you ahd the car? Take the air filter out and see if the previous owner has drilled holes in the bottom of the air box, I've heard of this before to create the suction noise effect you have. I'd check the WHOLW air in take system for leaks if I were you. Just a thought, anyway hope you get it sorted mate.
  12. How many times have we spoken/seen each other since Chrimbo!!! And everytime I've been peeing myself because you had NO idea, must've been bonkers for Netti, Chris and Mrs K Sorry we can't make it but welll done iBishop for sorting it.
