    and today a friend come over just to have a look at the computer and everything on it as i wanted to see if it actually had a ems ecu like the guy i brought it off said as i looked at the ecu and seemed to look just like a factory one (G8) as my friend said it may be a patch inside the loom its self but we could not work out how it was going so good with just a stock computer and putting out so much power i then started to question the poncams and if it had any at all so we took the covers off to see what it had and was happy to see the tomei are real :)

    he then looked at the timing and said he was shocked as it was fully advanced and it can be really dangerous to the motor i dont really understand any of it and how it works as the car drove fine when it was auto i thought maybe some one else could tell me more about it??? and why it would be like this the 2 photos show what he looked at and now i worry :/

  5. done my hand break tonight was a lot easier then what i thought it was gonna be i used a r32 handbreak and the front part of the r32 cable with the tailshaft out and Center console out and the carpet is already pre cut from factory and you just pull it back and cut it away and youll see a oval hole in the top of the tunnel from underneth there is a plate covering the hole i drilled out 2 spot welds and pulled the plate off and there was your bolt holes and big hole for your cable to poke down through the hole and i used 2 10mm bolts and nuts to hold the cable bracket done the r32 hand break cable has a bracket on the end of the first part of the cable you have to drill that off and it will fit right up in to the the laurel handbreak cable then all you have to do is drill the holes for the handbreak its self and work out where you want it its very easy

  7. ok so ive need to get a spigot bearing i have a spigot bush that is like a brass bush that im guessing slips in side the bearing? i got a big bearing with my clutch that i was guessing was a throwout bearing? and i brought a small brass bearing from nissan guessing it was the spigot bush do i also need a manual spigot bearing??... sorry for the noob questions

  8. well this weekend auto box was pulled out all the pedals done dash cluster has been changed im ready to put the clutch in now but i have never done this before so is there anyone out there with a good walk through on how to do it and what else i have to pull off as ive taken the converter off the back and the auto flywheel thing and am not stumped in what to do :/
