Does any one live in coventry who may be willing to put my ptu on their car to check if its working???? car will not start

White Zed heading towards Gloucester on the Tewksbury Road (A38) on Sunday about 9:50 am. I saw you at the last second as I was trying to open a bottle of Tango for my little girl. You flashed me. I was in my White Zed. Unless there is a big mirror on the road and it was my reflection???

Turning into the A10 from Enfield Town, anyone from here? :dance:

I drove from Cardiff to High Wycombe this morning and back again tonight, along the M4. I was the only Z32!! I saw a light blue Z31 around Swindon and a couple of 350Zs but not one Z32. Nevermind...........maybe next time.

My laziness has got me in a bit of a predicament..well, that and watching the World Cup instead of doing the job myself :( I purchased an autobox cooler rad mod kit from the Z Centre and took it along to my local garage with all the instructions blah blah.Everything seemed ok and indeed Ive run the car for a couple of weeks now. Today I decided to have a peek at the rad whilst messin under the bonnet and it seems that the guy at the garage has removed the old engine oil cooler rad completely and has run the engine oil through the old autobox cooler in the main radiator core :rant: .Question? how will this affect the car, will the engine oil cool sufficiently and if …

Ive been looking out for a SWB TT zed for a while now and have eventually found a nice looking one come up on eBay. Its fairly local to me too!! Any idea as to how much its worth cos i dont want to be paying stupid money. Any advice would be appreciated :bow: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=014&item=330003530738&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1

Coming into Dorchester Sat pm about 2 10. Going slow!!! Pos 2 ladies.

hi all just stripped the master cylinder of my zed and am about to put my new one on. BUT do i need to put any sealant/instant gasket between the cylinder and the booster thingy??? cheers richard

got a faulty dett sensor and for now need to throw a resister inline but cant remember the ohm value :( anybody know what it is

The cylinder head gasket on my original engine blew and the garage I took it to said that damage was such that a replacement engine would be cheaper. I ordered a second hand one which came with everything fitted ,turbos etc and was ,imported I beleive from Japan. To cut a long story short the garage had clearly bitten off more than they could chew because it was several months and many phone calls before I finally managed to get the car back from them. When I eventually picked it up they told me that it was smokey but that was just because the engine had been refurbed to some extent by the providers and after a few miles were under its belt the smoking would stop. …

So how many Zed's are there in the UK roughly? Anyone looked into it?

Hi - under the bonnet at the back of the engine behind the balance bar and tucked dowm towards the bulkhead are three plug/socket connectors - two of which are the same and therefore interchangable - as in - could be connected to each other the wrong way - anybody know what they are and how to tell if correctly connected. Disconnecting either does not seem to make any difference to the engine on tickover!! :mad: Bit vague I know but... AndyGP :)

saw a red zed heading northbound on the A19 yesturday afternoon.i was heading southboud on A19 flashed but dont think you saw me.

Lovely grey zed with some of the nicest rims I've seen on the car. Attracting a lot of attention as it was the only one there!! I noticed that those steer from the rear boys have swithed to s15's now....traitors I tell you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

White Z. A35 New Forest heading to Lymington. 8ish last night.

I have just had a power steering pipe go on '90 TT import Nissan have quoted me £285 for the pipe, is there anywhere (preferably not scrapyards) that may also sell the part that I require?

Black Z H382 ??? at Stondon Rd/Cambridge Rd Roundabout near the Rose centre, 6.00 ish i was in the Red zed other side of the road !

Ok, this is completly confusing to me, I need to put in a new alarm and was hoping to have the following features: Remote locking Total Closure Remote Start Proximity Sensors Glass Protection Interior and Tilt Sensors Turbo Timer Wheel Protection Can anyone recommend a Cat 1 with a good reputation and also what it would cost to supply and fit ? Thanks !

Greetings, Anyone know where to buy Veilside / aftermarket electric mirrors for the JDM TT ? Looked everywhere with no luck at all. Also any ideas on quality and guide price ? Cheers !

So I've finally got my car into a garage after about 2 months :dance: but the bad news is i need a power steering eye pipe (so they tell me). Apparently it's the pipe that goes from the pas pump to the steering rack. Luckily I've been informed that someone I know is breaking a z but need to know if this pipe is the same on all models or if not then which fits what?? Otherwise it's an up to 3 week wait for delivery :mad:

I know there's the issue of removing the cats causing the turbos to fail prematurely, but would it be a possible solution to remove the cats and replace them with silencers instead, to try and maintain a small amount of backpressure to help protect the turbo seals whilst still gaining some of the advantages of a less restrictive exhaust system.

The gear lever has gone all floppy (must be the weather). So what am I looking for to fix it. Is it a fault with the gear lever mechanism or is it a fault in the gear selector rod/gearbox? Anyone got an answer before I pull it all apart? as always, thanks in advance. Cheerz Jack

Ive been told i you have main seal leakage to try only having 3/4 of the oil on the stick?(ive changed PCV valves and hoses)will thinner oil also help? Is this when cold or warm?

I am getting nowhere trying to get some red vinyl for my zed interior retrim. I did get some but most of it is unusable from an innocent mistake. Plz tel me where i can get some red vinyl, thanks.

does any one know of a quick fix for a possibly sticking valve a lifter without taking things apart? car is a TT.
