I want to fit my 99 spec bumper and use some carbon fibre vents for the foglight holes, the missing part of the plan is an alternative site for the sidelights?

Saw another Zed in Shrewsbury driving up Wyle Cop at about 5:45 today. Was grey and looked like it was a fairly stock UK model, apart from the exhausts. You may have seen me (dressed in black) stop and stare as you drove up the hill.

saturday 26th, about 12 oclock, the first one had a scarab front bumper i think and was going past the leyland gates and the new morrisons with the roof off, good man. The second was my old Z, The reg started K300, looking as sexy as it ever did, smoking a bit though. Is it anyone on here? danny

Right still got this blasted missfire! MAF Checked and fine, Coilpacks Checked and Fine (Bought USed set but not needed) Injectors checked had bad connection on one, cleaned and sorted! Water Sensor cleaned and fine. No Air leaks (Boost Leak checked and cleared) and Conzult came back Clean (No Probs) Any ideas what else it might be??? Got a Gumball Rally equivalent at the end of August and i really need it sorted before it!!!! Get the random stalls (Foot on Clutch but revs just die anyways) Unpredictable idle (Floats from 500rpm Most of the time to up 1000rpm) So when im clutching around in traffic occasionaly car judders as not even doing 500rpm so i loo…

just seen this on pistonheads http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/633497.htm

Hi guys, Making some progress with my 'dodgy motor'. I've been trying to pressurise the system without much success, I've resorted to breaking the system into sections and testing one section at a time. Found some big and small leaks but when attempting the entire system it won't seem to hold anything. I'm only using a cheapo air compressor which is pretty slow to inflate a bike tyre. It seems all my pressure is escaping through the front PCV hoses - presumably into the crankcase? The hoses appear to have a baffle and a wire filter inside, is there a particular orientation for fitting these? (i.e. baffle or wire filter on engine side). The system can be pressuri…

Where is the best/cheapest place to get Conzult software and cable from? I'm looking at getting some kind of software to 'talk to' the zed and Conzult looks the better option over Datascan feature wise. I've been looking at getting it from blazt.biz and it comes to £189.94 for full Conzult software, the cable and the shipping. Before I press the purchase button - is there anywhere better/cheaper to get it from and more importantly - for the people that have already bought it: is it really worth £189.94 or shall I just stick to the little light on the ECU :confused: CheerZ, Vern

doing a throttle body water bypass on my na. now the two small pipes on each of the large pipes at the back of the engine. are they the right ones and do i have to block them off?? was going to either braze them up or fit some hose on and clip a bolt in the end!?

Bought a HID kit about a year ago and I seem to remember being told with this particular kit I had to add a wire (I think for earth purposes) but Im not sure as to add it to where and from where Anyone know what Im talking about??:D

was watchin school of rock thought i seen a red z when they are driving away from the first audition in the van it was parked in a drivecan any1 confirm or deny this

anyone know if its possible to do the plenum bypass without having to take it off ?. on the way back from the meet yesterday the small hose split & started to overheat again, which can be seen if you look directly down the side of number 1 coil pack & plenum. its only about 2.5 inches long as well :eek:

Just wanna give a big big thank you to Duffman (aka Andy) for helping me through yet another break down Arranged for Andy to take my car in today and iv had a few issues with the lower radiator hose which i kept thinking would give way before i got there but it held up the entire 150 miles until i got into Rotherham where it decided to burst at a set of traffic lights..... Parked up and got on the phone to Andy who drove down and luckily the very same morning i picked up a brand new made lower radiator hose from SFS Performance.....excellent quality silicone hose makers by the way......right there on the spot he changed the hose for me while attracting a few odd look…

A buddy of mine saw it earlier today and said it looked stunning and praising its owner:D

Looking at a beetle for my sister today but i cant find a buying guide anywhere. Wanna know what to look out for? known problem etc? being a vw it should be pretty reliable. Any help would be great thanks.
