    Too right about state funded jobs being lower paid Lofty! A job that takes up unlimited hours (its actually written into a teachers contract), that you need to be qualified to postgrad level to do, and at the age of 29, its only just this year that I finally cleared the 20 grand barrier. I...

    how about..............

    OK heres a question - why doesnt everyone use rotary engines? And another one - who is it that first punted the idea that having a diesel instead of a petrol car was greener? How does a racing fuel cell work? Is it just a tank filled with foam or something? Another off topic question on...

    How good is VVT

    Ben I thought youd know that WOT= Wide Open Throttle. Joe, Ive got a dorky interest in this weird concept of not having a return to the tank...does the pump have its own fly by wire regulator controlled by the engine management or something? Thinking about the normal system, I suppose it...

    !!!!!!Weird!!!!!!!

    Then the only engine oil circuit that you have near the front of the car is the breather pipe in the back of the air filter. Next nearest is the oil filter on the front of the block under the inlet manifold.

    fao Nick Read again...

    Cheers Joe. you are such a dork I cant believe it. One of these days Ill show you my excel graphs and tables that show real world 1/4 mile times for various cars versus 0-60 and 0-100. I did them in the search for a correlation between them and I have found a best fit curve that will predict an...

    Well I got a techy rush when Id finished the wiring diagram to r****d the ignition whilst the nitrous was firing, without pulsing the r****d unit in time with the solenoids! I love it when a plan comes together. Next job will be to wire in the full throttle gearchange and launch control, and...

    !!!!!!Weird!!!!!!!

    The only fluid near the nearside grille is the coolant from the top radiator hose. I would suspect that oils been splashing around from when you didnt have the cap on. A small amount of oil does go into the back of the airbox via a breather pipe near the end of the throttle body, although how...

    Gotcha! That makes a lot of sense Joe, cheers. So basically it can go to the actual coil connections rather than the inputs of the ignition module. BTW You still up for Donny South? Ive got you on the possibles list but not confirmed yet.

    Yeah only the Series 1 has any kind of cred, the later ones are dodgy looking.
