Is anybody able to tell me? It's just that I picked up my new boss today and it looks small. Just measured it and its about 15mm. Seemed to remember it being bigger last time I took my wheel off.

Set my boost controller the other week to run a max of 1.00 bar and the saftly llimit at 1.10bar. It was running and holding a bar boost lovely. Now when i set it up it was a cold evening (2 degrees C). Last week in the day I went out and on the same settings and got 0.86bar (air temp was about 10 degrees i think). I though maybe i might have changed the settings and forgot, so readjusted so that it was running 1bar on full boost, all was fine again. Went out last night (air temp 0 degrees) it hit 1.16bar even though the controller is set to cut boost at 1.10bar, way way to high (though car went like stink). So readjusted back down and made mental note. Doe…

Hi everyone, been a while since i have been on here, major computer problems ahh well its good to be back. Anyway i hope one of you cleverer than me people can help with a problem i have got with the Z. It keeps flattening the battery which initially i put down to the battery being knackered, however it still does it with a nice new battery installed. Admittedly i do a lot of short runs in it and the weather hasnt helped recently but about 2 weeks is as good as it seems to get. I have stuck a meter on the battery with the engine running with nothing electric switched on and it reads about 13.8v, i suspect it ought to be higher than that, would have thought over 14v. …

They are Squeeling when pulling up slowly. Then when i was at high speeds the steering wheel was rattling. Think i need new brakes :(

Didnt want to steal somebody elses thread - but how do I stop my car ticking over at 1500rpm when warm? Ive reset ECU, and checked connector for temp. Shall I just adjust the base Idle screw when then engine is running and warm?

Whereabouts are these on the car - cant find the plate under the bonnet. Anyone know where its stamped on the chassis or engine. Cheers

At the Ztech Clinic last Saturday , I was telling one of the guys about how some people park in London : I`d actually watched a guy squeeze an estate car into a space by pressing his rear bumper against my front one the day before : coupla little marks..very annoying . On Sunday , I parked in a fairly small space with a Modern Mini in front of me...on Monday morning , Mini had gone and a BMW 3 Series driver had managed to squeeze in the space , leaving me about 2 inches gap at the front...then I noticed that my nose panel had a nasty scrape on it , about 35 cm long and 10 cm deep . Judging by the height and shape , it wasn`t from the Beemer , someone else must have tried…
