All I can say is, read my "Utter Frustration" article and you'll know that I fully understand how frustrating it is when the damn thing stops working!! If I have one more set of leaking fuel injectors I'll set the damn thing alight while it's running!! :evil:

However, after reading everyone's supportive messages and ideas, I calmed down and finally decided to get the car right. I hope I don't end up with more trouble, but I'll give it my best shot. And all of this is because of inspiration from you, Vlade! At first I thought it was impossible, but now I'm on my way to getting my engine overhauled. Again, with your help and advice. I think you did brilliantly with your car so far - including the non-engine related stuff like CarPC and button panel on the roof :-)

Dude, I hope you decide to keep working on it and solve the problem. Yours will be a great show car!

NOO! Dude don't sell your car. You have spent so much on it at least have some fun in it first. I'm sure the problem you are having isn't as big as you think. Just stick it out and have some patience.

Hey Vlade, i'm with everybody here don't sell it my opnion is:
1.If you spent so much money you will never recover it if you sell it
2.If you spent so much money is because you love the dam thing
3.If you spent so much time making it shiny and beautiful is because you're crazy about the dam bitch :oops:
4. If you done it yourself is because u can't live without it :roll:

Now i know that there are tons of so called Tuners (bunch of rip offs as we all know) but there is still people out there that still care about reputation & not just money i'm not going to mention names, i think that if came this far don't give up now you must see the final result 1st b4 u make any decisions.
It looks like a littlething is out of place there :?: :?: my 2 cents is: Take it to a tuner (the type that lets you see what is doing) not the one that tells you to come in 2 weeks time and let him have a look at it.

Also try and check if all the aftermarket parts that you bought are really a direct replacment for Nissan and that they are used Overseas by Nissan tuners(Sometimes stock is much better then Kak Aftermarket).

Take a big breath & go back to the drawing board, & remember that is you rush you will have to re-do everything again.

That wasn't 2 cents it actually fills like R100 :roll:

Dude..... Gee. If u leave there is gonna be like a huge vacuum here. As if a great hero fell in battle. (ok, Im exaggerating here, arent I?) Its bad having to sukkel with ur car like that. And remember, the toughest moments bring the greatest rewards. Just stick it out for another while, it shuldnt make that a big difference to u.

If I had the money, I would be willing to buy the car from u... but I really dont. Sorry man. Best I can get is maybe R35 000. and thats not worthy of ur car. Im thinking about R50 000? Anyways, good luck either way man
