Hey guys Being 18 years old i realise i'm going 2 struggle with insurance on one of these cars but what i'm wondering is... would i be able to get a 1990 car on classic car insurance? Cheers for ur help

At some point over the next half year one of the things I need (want) for my zed are some 18" alloys. Anyone recommend a good place online where I can look at some? cheers Al

Hi ppl Any body know ho to fit one of these? Is it a mod worth/good idea doing? seams like a good idea, not expecting 100 bhp from it but if it keeps the intake clan that can only be a good thing surely Cheers Neil

Hi all. i just got a second Z for knocking about in while mine is still in bits. its a red Z with black aftermarket wheels reg H550 NEY. Any one know the history to it as its been in a knock at some point? cheers. si. :nana2: :hyper:

just for getting my car in and out the garage untill i can get sorted with the repairs and new wheels. they need to be at least 17" so they clear the big brakes I know its a long shot cos most people have standard ones lying around. hopefully in the north east if poss cheers Paul

Hi, Not sure if I'm just getting paranoid but I could swear my biting point changes position depending on if I've been sitting in traffic etc. Any ideas what might cause it? Cheers Vijay

How much is a used tc worth ?? cheerz

Which hand brake do you have in your car, please post pictures as im in need of one but want to know what they look like in a zed.

Right have taken it out and played around with it. From cold in 2 gear having just come round a corner up onto a slight hill and put the foot down not excessively as its still cold. Was just about to change up into 3 but before i could do it the car bogged. I snatched 3rd and it went nicely again. T Later car nice and warm at it accerated nicely in each gear whether I treated it gently or pushed it. No more signs of bogging out.

Im bored got my 2 weeks off, car in body shop, and imstuck in doors so trying to compaire the viper and the Twinz side by side, i like 'em both but think Twinz is slightly better, bit more suttle and more stylish, as i dont think its ever going to get here im wondering what can be done to the viper to make it similer or slightly more suttle? hmm the opening needs to be smaller on the viper i think, side vents will need some work to straightning up of the top outside edges? What you all think can be done?

The previous owner gave me the maintenance manual on CD but it isnt reading it on my computer. It has the website http://www.ideal-z.com on it but i went there and it doesnt exist. Can someone email me (tp-ventham@msn.com) or tell me where i can find a .pdf of the manual to download. Ta Tom

I have just bought my Zed a have noticed that the red HICAS light sometimes stays on when I first start the car up then goes out after about 5-10mins of driving. It also feels like the steering lightens up a bit when the light has gone out. I have just bought the car but it has only just started doing it and in that time i havent hit any kerbs or anything to cause the HICAS to error. I have done a search and there is so much about HICAS on here so can someone with experience give me a quick answer of how to fix it. I dont have any of the diagnostic equipment so cant check for error codes. It seems like it may just need resetting. Is there a fuse i can pull to wipe…

Well friends it time for me to move on.After 5 years and 6 Zs things have changed for me,its been a pleasure to of been involved with this club, and over the years to of meet some great people,and real mates that have gone out of there way to help. Theres been highs and lows and then highs of Z ownership.Its been an experience I would not of missed,to say its kept me busy and on me toes would be an understatement!.Lately though I feel that the spark for me has died somewhat,reasons include my age,the Z scene in general,Donna’s illness earlier in the year,and I must admit I have slowed down.Since owning again my present Z that I first had in 2002 I have only done 700 mi…

Don't know if any of you saw a previous post by LOFTYGTR but he needed a car that looked similar to his old one for a film. Anyway I've lent my smokey zed to him as it was near identical. He drove it all the way to Brighton from Brum with no probs....apart... from the smoke of course....oh and a blowout!!! The deal is that he has a budget from the film company so in return for the lend of the car as he wont need to do much external modding the budget will go to fixing the problem. He collected the car on Sunday from my parents house. Seems like a good deal to me what do you lot think. By the way I got all his insurance docs as well as ID with copies and pro…
