heater in car has stopped working and the fan is making a strange noise, its still blowing, just cold air instead of warm, engine temp is fine, noticed the other day it just went from cold to hot within a minute after being cold for ages, it didnt just gradually warm up if ya know what i mean any ideas before i go poking around

Is it replace every 3 years or 60K? Cheers If car has been sat for a year does that still count :)

Whilst out driving around yesterday enjoying the sunshine, Suddenly see Atlast (sean) in his white zed, stop and have a chat, then a drive about. Nice to see two just cleaned and polished zeds, a black and a white one zooming around. What i liked to see was other road users and public looking at us, i think it has something to do with the sound of the zeds grumbling down the road. Looking good mate, will do a cuppa next week.

I was recently sent to work on another power station and was quickly told about a 500bhp supra, owned by the guy i was going to be working for. He told me he was having alot of hassle from the police because of the noise from his exhausts so he had an Exhaust Control Valve fitted. I was just wondering if anyone had ever ventured into fitting a twin set-up into a zed? These are the fella's i was looking at. http://www.nengun.com/apexi/exhaust-control-valve

hello, looking for some thoughts about stainless steel vs cast iron manifolds? what else to look for, like what makes one better than another and does it make a huge difference? i have standard turbos at the moment but looking to upgrade them at a later stage. many thanks.

I want to replace the battery in my Z for the correct one. I bought a random one from Halfords 3 years ago and it's been fine. But, I want the correct size so that I can refit the battery cover and battery clamps. 068 and 088 batteries seem to be the ones for the Z...but, what's the difference between the two? Wanting confirm that this sized battery will fit the Z battery cover. 255mm Long 173mm Wide 182mm Height Want to try and find a black battery. Most are like red, white or blue or something!
