  2. yeh man the crank seal is a common thing on scoobs....cant say ive heard of the blocked breather thing b4...then again i aint no sanner monkey ......if you can the the timing belt case off without taking the belts of..you will know for sure if it the front crank seal ............dont rule out your rocker cover (thant youve already done) you wont be the firts person not to get it seald properly...worth checking
  3. sounds like cam seal mate,,or it could be a rocker cover,,,the smoke will be a small bit of oil getting onto you manifold then burning off.... put a bit cardboard/ paper under your car tonight then check it in the morning,,this should point you to the problem part/tell you where the leak is......if it is the cam seal you might aswell put a new timeing belt kit on aswell... bit slow

  8. shes the same age as my old RA and looks very tidy ...you should have 2 black connectors under you stearing colum to check the ecu fault codes (plus 2 green connectors)..this is so you can do it yourself and not waist money getting it done at a tuners/dealers...its abit fiddly the first time as thay can be stuck right up under the dash..... if shes got loads of mods, send her to MR FORREST and get a stand alone apexi ecu..not cheep but better than a rebuild....<<<<not saying thats going to happen..maybe abit to strong of a word (sorry) but these crazy jap ecus have scary maps (like johnny said)....i would run Vpower + booster..am sure wallace will get ya sorted if shes not got alot of mods the ecu your after is a Z5 (standard 1) head over hear mate,,,,great bunch of guys/girls thay will keep you right...(few people from hear are on it aswell) http://www.type-ra.co.uk/

  20. GT is it a classic youve got? if so you can check/reset the codes yourself
  21. props for stopping and helping the guy out. meny people would of just carried on ...... i remember helping some1 out a couple of year ago that rolled his car into the woods on the A702 just out side bigger...i just cought his tailights out the corner of my eye as i went past. (car upside down)..i slamed on the brakes and jumped out (superman mode on lol) ran back..luckly the young lad was just crawling out the car with some cuts and white as a sheet....he could not have thanked me anuff for stoping and helping him out as 4 or 5 cars past the crash and never bother to stop (saying that thay might not have seen him ).... other road users did stop but that was for the sheer fact i slammed on the brakes and jummped out my van
  22. Frank you could always get some gromets for the holes on the underside of the sill (you wont see them)... and for the holes on the face of the sills. you could get a bit of colour coded vinyl and run it along the full face of the sill (or cut out small circles and place them over the holes) then lay a graphic on top (www.AFP.co.uk ect ect ).. THIS WAY YOU ALWAYS HAVE THE OPTION OF STICKING THEM BACK ON ... plus the vinyl will stop ya sill from getting stones chipped ive seen colour coded vinyl being used to cover spoiler holes (wingless scoobs) + ive used it when i removed the rear wiper of ma Golf .. you cant even see it unless you get up close and whos going to be staring at ya sills anyway catcha oh have a good xmas and new year when it comes big man
  23. i got done a few month ago ,,shell at quennsferry road (card cloned at the hole in the wall) got phoned from the HBOS FBI saying some1 tryed to take $500 out in OZ (thay refused it) then thay tryed to take $50 (bank refused) thay phoned me the next day to make sure it was not me,,,,,,,,,man if ive not got anuff to worrie about, now ive got to watch for people on the otherside of the planet trying to nik my hard money
