First off hi as its Rodders (aka Marks) brother here. I have been helping him today take a look at his engine to try to diagnose where the whirring noise he has is emanating from. He started the engine and I first used a hose in my ear to get the general area (bottom centre of the engine) then I used a screwdriver pressed upon the oil pump casting and I'm pretty sure the noise is coming from behind this bit. Does anyone know what could be causing the oil pump to have this odd whirring noise? It is odd as it isnt there straight away, I'm guessing that it starts once the oil pressure has risen after a few seconds and is very prominent for a few mninutes and then …

I am having problems in stopping my Zed ever since its come back with the mods giving more power. The stock calipers and Brembo discs doesn't seem to be effective enough. Today I panicked as to whether I would stop in time after a launch from the lights and then sudden traffic ahead. Can you guys and gal please steer me in the right direction as to what my options are (cost effective wise) in terms of brake upgrades etc. Need to to know how much one needs to spend parts+labour for the upgrade. Finally any leads on where to source the parts ? Cheers !

Ok. I've Got The Above Off At The Moment And Was Wondering If It's Possible To Test That The Vvt Advance Mechanism Works. The Inner Part Doesn't Seem To Move At All. I'm Worried It May Be Seized. Does It Come Apart?

Saw SWB black N/A J reg with black/silver front number plate and *massive* exhausts heading North on Coldhams Lane around 1pm today. I was the guy on the bike who cheekily nipped across the road at the traffic lights before the railway bridge. You went over the bridge and turned left into the Asda/Beehive Centre car park at the roundabout. Literally 1 minute after you turned off saw a blue LWB auto (not sure if N/A or TT) heading South towards the same roundabout. Think it might have turned into the Asda car park as well, but couldn't see clearly.

Just wondering if anyone has had this problem with there zeds. My N/A import intermittantly won't rev past 6000rpm almost feels as if the rev limiter has kicked in too early. It feels like a fueling problem but i've read that the ignition modules turn south too.

As shown in picture there are two hoses near n/s turbo with bolts tightened on the ends, are they supposed to be connected to eachother?!? or are they supposed to be like that? My Z is still boosting at 6-7 psi, help pls. :headvswal P.S. The connector on the blue arrow is the T type one.

saw today at around 8.30 this morning in broxtowe passing the big coop

Hi all Got my plenum off at the moment and noticed that the EGR tubes that attach underneath the plenum are blocked solid with exhaust coke. Has anyone successfully removed the EGR valve assembly without affecting anything else like emmissions at MOT time and performance.
