  1. Thanks everyone that gives me a better idea. Looks like it might be the time to up grade the internals if the gasket job is going to cost £1300 on its own!
  2. its a tt, i had electric twin fans on there which fused. It was ok when i was doing 70 down the motorway but when the traffic backed up it overheated.
  3. I think mine head gasket has gone. Just wanted to get an idea of the number of hours involved in the repair and an estimate on the cost of the total job before i go to the garage.
  4. I've got a brand new short block if you want
  5. Try epups. I've had some success advertising with them and its free.
  6. Has anyone got a drive shaft for a 6 speed thet want to sell? Ta
  7. I have a new jza80 short block for sale i was going to go for a complete new engine and internals but have since changed my mind. I payed £2000 plus vat for this but am open to offers. Can deliver but obviously will cost you.
  8. Advanced driving is well worth doing for yourself it does make you a better driver. However i've never had any discount on insurance.
  9. I'm 50\50 about going depends on work anyone else going?
  10. Yeah i had a similiar problem with my supe when my wheel fell off! It was painful watching my front bumper grinding against the bed of the truck, luckily the driver owned a modded skyline and was doing the best he could. This raises another point i had an after market bumper on with no towing eye it was pulled on via the hook on the engine. Does anyone sell a towing eye that is compatable with an aftermarket bumper.
  11. Don't think there was any mention of the clutch i presume it must be upgraded?
  12. I think there is no limit on the amount but isn't there an insurance limit of £500.
  13. I would tend to agree with the last comment. I have/had about 500bhp at the wheels with a hks t51r and what a sound it made when it came on song it was like a jet engine. Loads of power very suddenly making it able to wheel spin in fourth in the dry! But mine was on standard internals and i lost a rod bolt totalling the engine. Worth upgrading i would say
  14. I've just been let down by a local garage who were going to rebuild and upgrade my supe engine to suit about 650bhp. Where would the nearest HONEST and RELIABLE garage to Cardiff be. I've heard of TDI, Envy, Thor and Chris Wilson but where are they based. Are there any others with a good reputation? Contact details would be good if anybody knows them. Thanks
  15. Does anybody know if the 6 pot ap racing calipers will fit under 18" volk challenge f-zero wheels. Thanks
  16. That makes sense if you have a turbo timer but i'm suprised clifford haven't made some sort of safety switch that would overide the intellistart if left in gear for those people without a tt.
  17. I was just wondering how everyone managed with a manual car and intellistart i used to have an auto and it was no problem. With a manual it a bit risky. I talked to my local sextons (who were clueless) and the chap in there said just don't leave it in gear. He went on to say that he had it on his car which was a manual and almost put it in a pond but know he justs remembers not to park it in gear!!!!
