All's going well on my end now, had a few aphid problems but I got a box of ladybugs and let them loose to eat away at the bugs. I am now bug free : Having big problems with rabbits as well, had to fence off the plot as the bastards had eaten all the peas and lettuce. Been fuck all sun the last week though, always cloudy, I assume you are the same?

I run hydro, the wilma systems so there all good for 5-7 days until the res needs filled up again, although I just switched to flower so I've got someone checking the lights don't get too close cos they'll stretch a bit so all should be good till I get back at the weekend.

im actually nearly out of weed mesel, got enuf for a week or two but my main harvest ain't for 8 weeks. Before then tho ill have an auto flower to cut in about 5 weeks which I thru in to keep me goin lol

I've been reducing my numbers but tryin too get the same yeild, started with 18, then 16, now I'm doin 8 with a bit of supercropping and lollipopin. Hope it works out or nearly get them same yield this time. The only reason I use wilmas m8 is the fact that I can leave tem while I work away, other wise I'd probly be in pots with coco. Gotta go here anyway, up early in the morning, see ye's

Yeah just so I can be pricing some parts, the book was probably only sent off today so won't have it back for awhile.
There's a couple of different models with the same size engline so just trying to figure out for sure which one I have.

if you go to your nissan dealer, with your chassis code they should be able to get you all the info you need, they might tell you no as its an import but thats down to a lazy parts manager, i`ll ask few lads here that owe me a favor for a few skyline parts they get me any info off the nissan dealer network if you can find it, pm me your chassis number won`t need reg or anything, there might be a dual coded chassis but thas easy get around once you have the numbers...

have you looked into shipping from uk or japan? its expensive now as the yen is strong but if you have a parts list one of the jap suppliers will sort you out, theres still a strong trade in parts comeing over even tho the car market has dried up...

these lads have a few largo`s in there selection, seen them up there awhile ago, if you ring around scrap yards you`ll find a few, what you need? one of the electric windows not working or something wasn`t it, and few interior bits? as said to you fred if your not a competent mechanic get her timeing belt serviced at a good garage or mechanic`s..

I've looked around and as you say the prices vary a great deal.
For now I'm only aware of the water pump needs replacing and there's 130k on the clock so it's probably a good idea to do the cam belt kit as well, that's the engine side of things and I'll get someone to check the electrics over the next few weeks to see what the story is there.

electrics are easy fred, so don`t let anyone give you the scare tactics of "ooooh its an import" that was true a few years ago but its not anymore, you`ll find the bits you need you just need to find the guy thats buying in at the time, engine parts can be got in the uk, and most spurious bits are fine to use, with exeption of the cam belt tensioner, you will have two kits to buy one will have a belt the other the belt with tensioner, get the belt kit in a motor factor and pully from nissan, if they can`t get it for you (import) then go with the tensioner from the kit, generally there not good and can give out under load after a few thousand miles...

and its like brakes on a car, the cam belt is something you need to know is going to work fine...
