Well after scrimping a saving for the past 12 months, I've finally bitten the bullet and put the car in to have some, let's say...amendments. 1. Tein Superstreet shocks and springs 2. Tein EDFC 3. HKS Oil Cooler 4. Bushes 5. Tein Tie Rods and 6. Pretty Coloured Hoses for under the bonnet...makes it look pretty 7. Ancillery hoses for other bit of the engine bay 8. Timing belt Once done she'll then be going in for a full respray from Metallic Green to a 2 tone metallic green/blue ish hue.... Have opted for handling over performance mods, as I feel she's quick enough as it is.... Will be the best and fastest 5K I'll have spent in …

whats the legal situation with having a smaller numberplate sitting at the bottom of your bumper and facing upwards? i need to think about relocating mine soon as its really blocking the rad and i dont want to have it above the bumper because it'll look like an old man's moustache :D there's nowhere really to secure it at the top (like teeth) so the only option ive got really is to have it facing upward at the bottom. i know a few of you guys on here have done the same - have you had any bother off the 'taxmen' over these?

I was having a look through the detailing world site and stumbled across the Z having a go over. Might be of interest to some people http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=47802

Have the fast road auto boxes become gold dust? Seems mine was the last one to change hands on here and that was ages ago. I assume that now SE Nisstek have gone and Z-Tech no longer do them, its gonna become qute a sought after piece of used kit.

what are the difference's between the na and tt auto boxs? and is a na compatible on the tt?

I can't decide if to fit my new wheels now on when i get the car kitted, i was going to save the wheels until i get the car kitted but i'm not sure i can wait. would 295's and a 10" rim sit ok on stock arches?

Anyone come accross this one before? Rather nice, few things to see in the factory. I wonder what became of that car...

TT about 1pm. Looked a very nice example. :bow:

my zed failed its ticket on fumes could this be down to the afc set up to run 14psi see my theory is this - its set up to run 14psi but obviously when you rev the engine without load no boost is being used so at 5000rpm theres no boost but its putting in 14psi worth of juice which is big over fueling so would this cause it to fail on fumes ??? advice please if this couldnt be causing what other possibilities should i look at ??? regards jim

Hi all, Been trying to get hold of SWZ for a week now, any ideas if they're on hols or I just keep missing them? I don't live far so I might pop down if I get chance, have e-mailed them a list of parts I need and could do with maybe using a conzult depending on £. Cheers!

Team, My car is an auto that is undergoing a manual conversion :hyper: at the moment. My question is will my car always need an auto ECU (with the big 23 on it) or can I at the same time switch to a manual ECU (with the big 22 on it). I am uprgrading to 555cc injectors so I don't have the same melt down as I did on std injectors. I have a number of ECU's so need to know which one to 're-chip to 555cc or even if it does not matter. Thanks for your help
