So what went wrong when ?

There was some talk of this a while back, as we're rapidly approaching the end of the year we need to act fast if we want to do one! So What I've found is: A4 top spiral bound, 12 pp calender, approximate cost £20 CD sized, loose sheet calender, 12 pages, comes in a CD Jewel case which also acts as a stand, approximate cost £20. Anyone interested? Tim

Had my first ever rolling road session on Wednesday in the Zed. The primary reason for this was to sort my fuelling problem out, which has now been done and doesn't leave the back of my car black! Anyway, managed 359 hp at the rear wheels, anybody want to have a guess as to what that might be at the crank? RR operator seemed to think i'd be loosing 50hp through the box etc, but he's not too familiar with Z trannys. Another problem that was identified was clutch slip between 5000 and 6000 rpm (area of peak torque). I have an ACT with the modified organic street disc in it. Anyone reckon I'll cure the clutch slip with a paddle disc? Or is it gonna have to be…

Have a look at this dyno chart(need tt.net login however): http://www.twinturbo.net/cgi-bin/ttnet_viewmsg.pl?forum=general&msg_id=717721 If you cant access the tt.net post: Original Japanese dyno sheet: After Kuah input info into a spreadsheet, converted torque numbers, proper dyno sheet plotted out: 746.5 RwHP (5th gear reading as 4th gear produced to much wheelspin) 600+ LB FT Quote from Kuah's post: What is most impressive was how the power holds all the way to redline. Couple things to note: 1. Engine had Tomei solid lifters, Tomei hi-lift cams, Tomei 89mm forged pistons. 2. This was at 1.5kg/cm^2 = 21PSI, on Japan…

UK's 100 Greatest Singles So if I wrote a song called "He's got Gary Glitters' Eyes", would you be thinking of Art Garfunkel ????? Scary !

Went to the rally today, hoping for the Halfway stage but because the person who we were going with was 45 mins late and then took more time doing other things later on in the day, we missed the tickets by 10mins. Went back and got into another stage, forgot which one it is and I thought thing where looking up. Anyway, it was crap. You where very restricted to where you could go and the most you could see a car for was about 2 seconds the very MAX. Very disapointed. £50 for petrol and £20 to get in. Was very much a waste. Also we all know how back Z lights are, coming home pitch black no street lights and as I swithched from main beam and dips the drivers dip…

Hi all, When I did the last clothing order it was a great success, now we have the 'new and improved' forum I'm looking at arranging another. What I want to know is what you want? All items are 'on demand' and the 'club' will not hold stock, so an indication of what will be popular would be very useful. Fill in the poll please guys and galls. Thanks Tim

Cops pulled me over for the first time ever last night on the way to my mate's house. I've been driving an FTO for a year, a Z for a year with no trouble & I actually get pulled in a 1.1 Mk3 fiesta LMFAO Couldn't stop laughing the whole time they were talking to me :D:D:D

Ok, let's get one thing straighty, I am very verty pissed! But!!!! I need to know one thing. Is the seed of my loin going to be a Master Pednat or a Miss Pedant,. Vote now!

Tried to call you the other day from a phone box but put my Donor card in instead of my phone card. Fkin call cost me an arm and a leg. Sorry if you've heard it, but it made me laugh.

Yay, after a little wait my clutch has arrived, good job because it is going in tomorrow morning to have it fitted. Nice RPS one, which was only a little more expensive than a stock one I was offered. Thanks Smithy, Here is a nice pic of it ;)

Sylvia Engineering........ I think they are useless, what does everyone else think? Any GOOD tales about them? I'd love to hear them........ I won't bore you with my bad experiences just want to hear from other people.

My car is having a clutch change at the moment, will be ready tomorrow :D. Anyway, talking to the mechanic and he says that he really doubts the turbos are original which I thought. He said they are way too clean to be original and too good condition from what he can see from the outside. Also I asked if it worth changing the gear oil while the gearbox is off, and I was told that the gear oil is perfect and it looks like the gearbox has been recond too. :S So far out of this clutch change I have got new turbos and a new gear box. LOL ;) Anyway, another question. My downpipe is blowing. I asked if they could patch it while its in the workshop and I was told …
