hey people, am looking to get my 300 in for the dredded mot this weekend, and the only issue i have is the front indicators. am in the process of installing led front repeaters. have posted here before about how to wire the little blighters up and got good response from fellow members with the answer being, just leave the original indicator inline. anyway, went to the shed to get the old bulb holders and...... can i find 'em!!! no!! so, has anyone in the suffolk/norfollk area got a set of front indicator bulb holders they do not need?? am looking to try and fit my repeaters tomorrow (saturday). al.

Evening, I began stripping out my Z boot trim today to replace the rear shock struts and was surprised to find an electrical actuator sat on top of each shock. Looking in the manual and comparing to my car though, I dont have the suspension adjustment control on the centre console. My question to the Z gurus is was this normal fit for a UK, manual, twin turbo ,1994 ? I cant understand how the equipment would be fitted but not the control panel? Does anyone know?

what is the second bleed nipple for by the hicas bit under the bonnet and why would i need to bleed that for the clutch? cheers

Hi all, Seeing its now been well over a year since I had my Zed I think I need to get this out of my parents garage! Its in nice condition and the paint is still nice and bright. There is a small pin dent near the front but otherwise a very nice bonnet. If someone wants to collect it from my parents house in Salisbury then they can have it! Can send pics if you want. Anyone?

Hey guys I bought an ebay short shifter I think it was 2 fast 2 cool. Anyhow. Its shorter but not that much shorter. Whats the shortest short shifter you know? Cheers Ron

Was under my car the other day and noticed that the front and bottom of the engine looked quite wet with oil, the engine has not long been built and put in, I will get Zedworld to have a look next thursday whilst getting my ebc installed, any ideas what it could be? If its going to be a big job, the garage who did the work on it will be sorting it out for me.

Hi there everyone, Was overtaking earlier and as I put my foot down a bit more to pass I lost power for a moment like a rev limiter kicked in. I came off the power and it went back to normal straight away. This has happened twice this week, both times exactly the same. It kicks in about +7 psi boost. I know safety boost cuts in at +7 but mine dont do it all the time. Haven't noticed anything else wrong. Car is a 1991 UK TT manual. Any help would be awesome. Many thanks, Rob

I started my car and drove it today for the first time in 4 weeks, the engine started on the button and drove perfectly straight away, jeff at zedworld will be fitting my ebc next week and sorting out any niggly problems with it, I cant wait.

hi my tailgate closes fine, but when it is closed it can still be lifted slightly. is this common on zeds? can i tighten it down so that it doesnt move? it wont open when its closed so the catch is working fine but it lets damp in where its loose! when its closed i can hold the corner of the tailgate and lift it about 1 inch! any help or advice would be great thax mark :headvswal:headvswal:headvswal:headvswal:headvswal

This post may seem like going back to basics but we are constantly surprised by the amount of people who do not know or understand what is written on a bottle of oil and therefore have no idea of what they are looking for, buying or using. This post should help as a basic guide, for more detailed information contact us and we will be happy to help. So, to be blunt about the subject, if a bottle of oil does not contain the following basic information then DO NOT buy it look for something that does! 1) The purpose for which it is intended (i.e. Motor oil, Gear oil etc) 2) The viscosity (i.e. 10w-40, 5w-30 etc for Motor oils and 80w-90, 75w-90 etc for Gea…

Has anyone (or has this already been posted) heard about the revision that was brought in to the MOT test this year? Basically says that if you exhaust(s) is louder than standard it is a fail. The official wording is "We have made a slight amendment to the RfR, which now makes it clear that the comparison is with a similar vehicle with a silencer in average condition" :eek::eek:

As my sig say's: Not spending my daily allowence while travelling (tesco snacks for dinner) and saving £10 a day to spend on my Zed :wack: I get the option while away on business to have £20 a day no questions asked whilst in the UK (this is the worst rate I get in Europe :confused:). I have taken the approach that instead of eating a drinking it all in pubs and so on I purchase pre packed food from the super market. To start off I was saving £10 a day but have now squeezed it to £15 a day so the average a week is £50 to £60 a week. Am I mad (sitting in my hotel room eating cheese sandwiches and not in a bar drinking). Or is it a good idea …
