Hi All, Anyone know where I can get a rear skirt to enclose my new Japspeed Zorst exhaust (apart from Zcentre). See my sig pic. Cheers, CT.

The job is practically done except wiring, on the old auto brake pedal there is a brown electrical socket on the right hand side, i dont have this on the manual brake pedal. What is this for ? do i need it ?? please see pic ;)

Inbox is full matey :)

anyone willing to do a plenum bypass for me, will pay good price (more than expected if need be) im in glasgow sick of the burst pipes etc

Hi all, Just a quick question... I had my car painted by 'Leonado' a few years back, and an excellent job he did, but my original rear spoiler is now looking very dodgy, and the red paint has developed some nasty white spots from living outside. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a bodyshop in Kent that could fit the spoiler and blow over the whole car for a decent price? Shame, Leonado isn't still going otherwise it would be on it's way back to Newcastle! Thanks Tim

Happy Birthday Russ :duffer: :duffer: :duffer: Can think of better days to celebrate your Birthday....like a Friday :D

As above, could someone let me know how far these come out from the body of the car? Cheers, Leigh.

I'm after a couple of s/s silencers to fit mid system, anyone know where to get 'em? Cheers, Trev.

I've got an after market oil pressure gauge, race logic (or race tech?) with a direct oil feed so pretty accurate. Hot at 2k rpm reads 50psi. High rpm hot reads 90 - 95 psi, which is almost off the gauge! Is that normal or a tad too high? Cheers, Trev.

In kickdown mine changes gear at 7100 RPM. Ideally I'd like it to change at 6500 (without lifting my foot lol) but is there any way of adjusting the box to do that? Trev.

Parked next to you this evening in Somerfield car Park, burnham sea front. You may also have been in the next door Wetherspoons pub same time as me but since I dont know what you look like I did'nt spot you LOL

hello everyone. dont post much but up for another answer from you all. Still recovering from my weekend up in scotland to buy some tein coilovers what a drive from east anglia!!!! - managed to grab a set throught ebay for 385 quid - some of you may have been watching them. Now all that is left is to fit them along with veilside rear bumper and leather seats and then its on to the engine. Im toying with 3 ideas at the moment - do i keep the vg30 dett and uprate it with gt675rs turbos along with requirements needed? or due i go for an rb26 lump out of a gtr and modify that? or go for a single turbo conversion on the vg30 dett engine? Looked also at the v8 option…

as above... does anybody have a recommendation of sum1 out there who can do it? cheerZ Joel.

just fitted a series 2 ptu (cheerz wozzer) to isolate a misfire, 5 cylinder fault and took it for a quick blast up the road and back... only to find... coolant leaking onto the drive and a trail of coolant up the road! :headvswal i looked under the car to no avail... dry as a bone! :confused: the coolant was cold on the drive so i assume it leaked when i left it idling on the drive and stopped when i took it for a blast! guess iv got another fault to trace 2moro! :(

im going to change the water in the radiator soon and change the coolant in the coolant bottle aswell. are they easy to empty out and how do you do it? cheers Nick ;)

Bit of a regular occurance it seems dude...:D (Pie soup) Chuffed to bits to see another looked after Zed driving the other way. Wanna hook up for a few beers? The hop leaf is a fav...I'm sure u drive past it!;) (Btw...Leave the toy @ home mate!:D) :hurl:

in the Makro car park at Cribbs Causeway, Bristol. Polished, very shiny standard alloys (fronts on the wrong side of the car).

i'm looking at a boost controller for the z at the mo do i need one with a double solenoid (apexi dsbc) or will a single solenoid controller do it? hopefully my car should be back in 4-6 weeks so it'll be the first new mod to fit

Its all going Pete Tonge !!!! Any one got any idea who in the country can do a decent rebuild on an Auto box??? and at what sort of cost ??? I would like someone located in the Midlands; as thats a bit better for getting the dam thing to them. Mine is on its way out and it has to be done... :cry: :cry: More cash !! will have to rob a bank again !! :nana2: Still i cant moan she has been fairly good up to now ! :cool: Marcus

Hi Matey Heres the pics of the temp sensor for the autobox you wanted. hope these are some help

Fitted these last year and they are currently still at the default settings. What I would like to know which way is to make the shock harder and softer? Front 1-4 set to 2 Rear 1-8 set to 4 Cheers Pete

Right, Im having ideas of upgrading to a TT Zed as I fancy somthing quicker. Just wondering what sort of MPG you get from a TT? Currently im gettin about 250 miles out of £45 on my NA.. Thats a Mixture of City and motorway driving on my way to work. I do 60 miles round trip 4 days a week to work and back, Just wondering if its going to be doable with a TT

I'm the proud owner of a 95 TT Auto, and will shortly be requiring new tyres... What sizes are best suited to the cars. It's got 17" wheels. Thanks Paul
