My mate - an MOT inspector told me this ^^^ but he put it that "if a car is manufactured with a cat/s it must have it/them for MOT irrelevant of weather it will pass an emission test or not" This rule supposedly comes in Jan 2012

1. Vortech Supercharger 2. Nothing Yet

I shouldnt but I did

Have a H-A-P-P-Y Birthday

my temp sensor will be in the sandwich plate so might be a good comparison. Comparison for what a volcanologists I've heard how hot yours can get

Thanks Mark Buster called me this morning and pointed out it was the coldest its been here all year - good night for a comparison Of course I'm comparing it as it was pre oil cooler (sensor hasn't been moved) so it's made a difference but I agree and the rad is showing 70 with the pyrometer - will look at adding another sandwich plate and putting the sensor in that. Ian - you still got that spare one floating about??

I would like to show provisional interest The provision is the Zed's finished if it is I'm up for this.

LOL looks like I know have the same problem - test drive tonight (its bloomin cold out mind) standstill oil is at 70° on the motorway it now drops below 60° So will need to do the same as you and blank the airflow if I use her in the cold weather Gone from to hot to to cold Having said that I'll see what it does next summer before I worry to much

Mine is in the sump - but I have an APS oil pan which is bigger and I think it has the blanks in it ready. The problem with a T piece would be the length of the probe - don't want to restrict flow to the SC discussion on the location here - http://my350z.com/forum/engine-and-driv ... ut-it.html not sure if they actually came to a conclusion though!

Thanks My oil temp is not connected there, I have the brass block which is a "T" piece all 1/8 NPT fittings - not sure if the block is a 1/8 standard but if not the Vortech kit has an adapter in - (Never seen a standard one to compare) all I did was add a 90 bend in so the Pressure sensor points forwards instead of straight out - the SC pickup is in the same place. I think its a 4 but I used the same adapter that was there before which has a 1/8 NPT at the other end. I do know the guy that I get all my bits from (pipe and adapter wise) said - "You always bring me these wierd American fittings" last time I went in I can get you anything you need if you don't have one laying about (I bet you have though!) Are you going to add an extra T piece then? if your oil pressure sender is there at the moment anyway? If you need an adapter let me know I'll get one posted up to you mate

You want a nice 260 project waiting in the garden Cost a lot less but that one is nice

Thanks for the feedback - going on a test drive later as my sender arrived today Will see what oil temps do on the move - my biggest problem was on track where I get 130 degrees very quickly! road use rarley gets over 90 -100. She's mostly fair weather and track use so winter use won't be an issue. Interesting point on condensation will keep an eye on it - define "drive it properly" you know me Miss Daisy asks me to hurry up

Hello and Welcome +1 on what Martin said - an 08 should be sound - usual things service history etc. Can't comment on the 70hp test drive one then you'll be sure Good luck with the hunt

Oil Cooler Part 2 Evening all So still waiting for my new oil pressure sender but my oil pressure tester arrived today so I thought I'd get the oil cooler moved on a step. It actually went quite well even though I got covered in the stuff when I dropped the pipe So started off with this - Quick oil pressure test (cold) Unfortunately when I lined the sandwich plate up I could see a slight problem with the location of the Oil Pressure sender Added some elbows to move that round - Bolted it all in place Test run time Assisted by my daughter as always - her job was to scream if the oil pressure went below 20 psi Oil warmed pressure holding - Did discover that my 80 degree sandwich plate opens at 70 degrees!!??? Input temp - Output (not bad for stationary) Think these will hold the pressure All plumbed in - Hopefully get my oil pressure sender tomorrow or Thursday - hook that up and a test drive. That's all folks .....................

Made me LOL cool

Many Happy Returns
