just happened to stop working today. Both sides and no indication lights on the dash. just happened out of the blue. Checked the fuse and it was alright. turned off and on again and didnt change. went to the gym and came out and was still happening. went to a scrap yard and back and still didnt work. went to supermarket and when i came out it started working normally again!! Works now but what happened??? pretty scary driving without inidcators, good job it wasnt dark so i could make arm signals. Makes you realise that most people dont bother indicating on the roads anyway. My digital clock hasnt work since it happened (as it sometimes doesnt) but still didnt st…

Wondering if anyone can help me, my Z is in some trouble, it seems be lacking power, i thought it was something to do with one of the coils, however it turns out its the wiring loom running to the injectors, the wires are old and not in the best of condtion, the connections were coroded these have now been cleaned up but it is still running a bit lean not very smooth, any ideas where i can find a new wiring loom, and how hard it would be to fit?? or maybe there is an eaier way? any ideas would be greatfull. :mac1:

You were spot on buddy ;) removed downpipes today , managed to get a hand into the tubs and found paper jammed in the shafts. They were spinning OK but obviously air flow was restricted. Car now boosting at 90%, massive improvement. :hyper: Must be a little bit more paper left somewhere, not too worried i'll find it eventually or it may burn itself out. Thanks again, apologies to everyone for the constant stupid questions, but I'm delighted to be back on the road :nana2:

Can the short block be removed on the VGDETT engine and be replaced with stage 1 or 2 short block from Z1 Motorsport without removing the engine?

I saw you Athene in Regents Park, Southampton today around 4:30pm ish Lol :D

havn't drove the car for a few days as I noticed a rattling sound coming from the engine that rises and drops with engine revs, not a light tappety sound a deeper tap from within the engine, seems to be best heard if held at around 2k while the engines warm, while its cold it isnt as loud which doesnt make sense to me because the engines cold so shouldn't there be more play until the engines up to temperature? :confused:

Well we all know it's a case of "when" and not "if" with these things. I took the ZX out the other weekend and as usual, the car was running perfectly. However as I was almost home the auto box decided not to operate as normal. Kick-down is fine - instant and fast; the trouble is, the 'box seems a little reluctant to change up! When I overtook another car, the RPM needle just went straight into the red until the rev limiter kicked in. The 'box only changed up when I backed off the accelerator. It was still fast and responsive though. When I got home, I checked the fluid - it is nice and pink with no unusual smells (oo-er missus ;) ) and the level is spot o…
