  1. any chance of pictures for the rest of us :) :) :( good luck :D
  2. umm will get my A level kids(physics) to do the calcuations - general observation the alloy is going to needto be pretty stiff if the stress is not to result in too large a strain (high E-tens of TPa) especially if the clearance between blade and body is small - and thats not even considering creep and fatigue
  3. but not from me - :)
  4. sh*t 200,000rpm = 3400revs per second - forces involved will be huge coupled with the high temp !!!! what material are the blades made of??
  5. yes its the wiring inside its a combination of poor qualty wires and length of the loom - diffent places have different problems - check the faq for accessing the wires in the rubber boots - click on the red link in my signature.
  6. wonder if the load on the power steeering pump is greater at/near full lock which could empahasise the noise then, hence the relationship to the steering if it is he aux belt - ??? I like the reasoning behind that.... Hmmm . Got me thinking... On my way to the local empty supermarket carpark!!! Will update with the results... anything found in the supermarket car-park then - (apart from how expensive food is now and a few hub caps :blink: :wacko: )
  7. I wonder if autos are going to be more prone to this - gulp - why are turbos so expensive? - materials? tolerances ? ????
  8. 12:19 and Cepheus is still logged on not looking good for Reg Vardy at the moment :rolleyes: :wacko:
  9. It's worth going back to take a look....it has caught on big time. There's loads of good overlays available, and also a validation system so you can tell which ones have been proven. I found it has some traffic cam info that is only a few weeks old! tried using them last year but the overlay info for cams was sure dodgy - actually had a traffic camera (gatso) marked which would have been visible from our landing window - guess what - no camera, never had been (road had only been open 2 years). Stuck to Pocketgpsworld camera database - seems quite good
  10. even if they look okay my money would be on a break in the wires inside the insulation inside the rubber boot
  11. This kenwood unit KDC W534 UA is now available from pixmania for

  15. If anyone fancys going to have a wiggle let me know please. it does flex but the end panels should be pretty solid

  17. -.-. . .-. - .- .. -. .-.. -.-- / .... .- ... / .-.. --- .-..
  18. Yep that confirms the cable is OK and the controller is fine. You need another drive now then.... :) right now - this should be Useful
