Two problems with that idea ... I was on foot and I wasn't in a 33 4 door, I may have had a chance with one of those beasts! :rolleyes:

haha yea that whole being on foot part would be a problem ! I don't know about you but every chick I know loves the 2 doors :)

now I think about that its probably because I own a 2 door, and their all like yea lets make him feel good ;) and the age my mates are their thinking about looks, not practicality, its very hard to take 3-4 people in a coupe, id love to see 5 in mine! might end up with the stanced look :P

Mate you need to get advice from Rob about the 4 handles ... oops, door thing, amazing stuff about his 'Line and a young lady and I believe the word 'moistened' was used. Almost made me go out and get a couple more doors and head straight to Woolies!! .... you will need to have an ale and a chat with Rob mate. :rolleyes:

(BTW thanks for the compliment Andrew -- :thumbsup: )

Yep sounds like my signature these days stem seals are gonesky. Thought it was running rich but my tuner verified it would be black smoke not blueish white smoke seems to happen on decel and start up so definitely sounds like a stem seal.

Not Excatly easy gotta remove a number of things to get to them. Can do it one day. cylinder head off job. Or cheap out and use a compressor to shut the valves.Not sure if you can reuse the blue gates timing belts again. Less than 20000kms since last change but I probably buy another. So it's just the valve seals,cam seals and timing belt.

That doesn't sound too bad.... we saw it and just thought "uh oh, that doesn't look good!!!"

We were at the car wash near the roundabout and it looked like a guy parked on the side of the road was even trying to say something to you when you were stuck in traffic near us.

    • Thanks for advice chaps   so you would change idler and tensioner bolt as well ? I guess because you thinking they have stretched once ?   i have done some research and on nissan belt and seem to hold 700hp but thinking HKS to be on safe side   i think I put nissan there last time   also thinking of changing cam cover to glass style:)
    • Nissan/Pitwork is fine stuff. HKS is just marketing wank. I personally wouldn't do the idler if it is already new. If it looks and feels fine, it is fine. But as D says - it's cheap to add it to the job. The water pump ditto. Even more so. If it show no signs of problems, then it is nearly new - leave it.
    • 1. I can't see a location on your profile but you do mention GBP so I'll assume you are in UK. In Australia, CBC make a timing belt kit with the gears and idler and tension bearing and that is what I use without any problems. I'm sure OEM or HKS are also fine but I wouldn't pay extra for HKS over anything else. 2. Yes, I would always change the idler and tensioner and the stud and bolt that hold them in. Assuming they were all done last time it is highly unlikely you would have a problem, but they are very cheap to add to the job considering the time it will take anyway.  3. No, you don't need to lock them as such (I think that is more for engines without timing marks), but you should make sure they move as little as possible once the belt is off as you can hit pistons on valves if they move too far. As always, make sure you line it all up to top dead centre with the timing marks aligned before you take the old belt off.
