Woooo!
Got the replacement viscous coupling from Steve Carter fitted today at the local friendly Fuel Injection Services garage.
Was ready at 3pm so I was just drooling at the desk until 4:30 hoping it would fix the problem!
Got in the car at 4:30 and had one of the most satisfying and exhilarating drives home ever! My god, it feels so good after all this time! It's only a standard spec car with the exhaust, but wooooo it shifts like a bastard and it just feels so -smooth- .. it's just so fantastic to drive, it's like liquid or something, it just runs so nicely. And the blow-off valve makes a hell of a noise too! The scraping is still present but I didn't let that bother me for now - hopefully Mr Norris could have a look at that when I get my ass down there, but I'm having an absolute ball now. I made a major detour on the way home, alternating between blasting it around and sms'ing Matt who should shortly be back from Spain to have a crack at taking me on - I think it's gonna be VERY close!
I love this car. I have absolutely NO regrets about buying it now. All the money I spent fixing the darn thing when it broke repeatedly has been worth it for this pleasure I get every time I'll be driving it. This is fantastic, this is what I got in debt for http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/smile.gif Now I just have to work myself out and get MORE POWER! http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/smile.gif http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/smile.gif http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/smile.gif
(this is a very good day!!)
