whats the top speed of a de restricted auto tt? being an older car will it struggle to reach it?

driving too fast in front of me on my way home from work lol took ages to work my way through the traffic and catch up!

Been thinking about a set of wheels on ebay for a while but couldn,t quite make my mind up about them That was until some one put this piccy on the forum , totally convinced me to get a set :bow: Got on the phone earlier to order a set and guess what , they haven,t got any and can,t get any more :cry: :cry: :cry: HELP !! Anybody know what these were a copy of ?

I'm looking at upgrading my wheels, i want something deep dish possibly. Any recommendations and links? Cheers

I'm going to do my front upper arms tomorrow, my question is when i remove the oem ones will the springs come out of tension??? if so i guess i will have to get some spring tensioners to get the new arms on????

can anyone tell me what the material is called that people use for the clear lens conversion and where to get it. i looked everywhere but cant find any.

Does anyone know the best placeto get this material as I'm finally getting rid of the tweed interior, but don't want to go for leather/vinyl finish. Also is the suede material easier than leather to stretch round the door cards? Cheers

Red shortie.

I'm looking at buying some turbos from an auto that have only 500miles on them. I have used the search as much as possible and found that auto turbos have slightly smaller casings which mean quicker spool up but less possible power. I want to run 14-15 psi on my manual car, will the auto turbos be up to this? Anyone know the max efficency of auto vs manual turbos? difficult question if noone has compared them before i know.

Hi, looking for an Electronic Boost controller, but does it have to be dual solenoid (for example) And is a cheaper "proper make" unit OK, or does it need to be a clever unit to cope with the two turbos. Thanks.

What car mats seem to fit well? I would like a choice to choose from, so what have you fitted to yours and how well do they fit? I'm also looking at momo gaitors for the handbreak and gearnob. possibly new handles to go with them.

Happy Birthday mate have a goodin :D :duffer:

Does anyone know what bulbs go into the 2 map reading lights in a Zed? I am nowhere near the car and want to get one on the way home, anyone able to help????

Well i tempted to fit my koyo over the weekend, apart from my brackets not fitting it went well but..... I did find a random radiator which had a electric fan on which i have no idea what it's for?? It sits between and baby oil cooler and the main radiator and like i say it has a fun size electric fan hooked up on it.

Is it me or does the 99 spec rear spoiler make a Zed look a little like....an this pains me...a mitsubishi 3000 GTO.... :hurl:

Can anyone recommend a good one to cover my dash, someone in the midlands area would be best. Cheers guys.
