Flick - Do you have an RCD (Safety Switch) on your house? If all the power went off when you got the shock I would say you do, otherwise get one installed ASAP! And if you got the full 240V (iron may be rated to 260V, but Australian system is 240V), then yes you would have got the cramps as 240V contracts your muscles, meaning you wont let go of whatever is shocking you.. its actually the most un-safe voltage in the world :P

Higher voltages throw you off, lower voltages dont contract your muscles... stupid Brits and their 240V system!! LOL

(Note - Qualified Sparky here, cash jobs on weekends :( )

yeah we got a safety switch. Handy thing that..

Didnt get cramps or such, just scared the crap out of me more than anything, was quite a loud zap. Heart was probly racing cos i got so freaked out lol.

Such a girl tho... wasnt worried bout the fact i just zapped myself.. was more upset i couldnt straighten my hair lol

hahahahahahaahahaha.

how did ya manage to zap urself though??

i cant figure it out,

my uncle has an electric fence though around his 1 acre dog compound in the country and he has 2 alaskan malamutes and one day one of em was leaning on the fence and not getting zapped and i was thinking sweet it must be off.

go to climb through it and yeh dumbest thing i have ever done.

my hair was sticking up for about an hour or so afterwards. was best adrenilin rush ive ever had lol

Yeah me too Luke, was gonna buy a 044 and do an intank setup but I like the ease of the Nismo. I know it costs more but hey...

that's why i went nismo! 044/040 is still a fairly easy install in a 33.

Quick Q: would a 910 be just as good as the 044?

910 and a 040 are pretty much the same thing with a different fitting i think, an 044 is an external and bigger which isnt necessary for anything below 300rwkw

I am thinking of getting bosch 044 pump but dont know how to install it....might require ur help if your willing to

040 is designed to be intank, 044 is designed to be external, some people put the 044 inside the tank but dont realise the o rings etc aren't meant to be submerged inside the tank. 040 is the largest intake you can get and will supply more than enough fuel for alot of people.

    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
    • There is an ABS pump and a few solenoids. You could trigger the front/rear solenoids with a pressure bleeder attached with a Consult 2.
