Saw you on saturday.....

Whats the best way guys, its popped up on here recently. My rear quarts are tinted purple and rear window is smoked - wanna remove it all.

On the roundabout near tamworth services, just saw you as i was coming up the slip way

Seen leaving Tesco in Quedgley, Glos.

Between J15 and J14 M5 (northbound). Driving very slowly -- I overtook you in my Citroen BX diesel :tongue: ;)

Team, Whats the best brake upgrade you can do whilst keeping the stock UK wheels.? Can you do the skyline upgrade for instance? Chris

I saw a silver zed in bedford outside halfrauds this afternoon but think i have seeen it before and i dont think they are a member but i thought i would ask anyway?

is furthest North? I've got a plan for the zed. It invloves quite a bit of work (well, for me anyway. Should be a doddle for a specialist). I originally planned to do the work myself. Just take my time and do it over a few days but I'm a bit worried it might be too much for me now. So, which zed specialist is furthest North? I dont wanna have to add a couple of hundred £££ to an already large bill for travelling etc. Cheers guys Scott

Coming out of a side road. Gave a wave and he waved back :dance:

Just fitted boost jets (1mm) but not getting any extra boost :( . I fitted them to the pipes that go into the boost pipes closest to the radiator, is that right. Still getting around 7 PSI. As an after thought, could it be running on safety boost ?? I've just re-checked th ejet fitting guide and sure that I have them in the right place..

Not sure if anyone will own up to being there, but seeing as I have.... I was in the red 200SX queuing for a post-hangover Mcnugget meal :duffer: :dance:

Noticed when i had my stuipid spare wheel out that at some point it must have been put away wet... the area it sits in was rusty, but thankfully its only surface so sanded and sprayed today with hammerite straight to rust.. thought id mention it as quite often this area doesnt get looked at one year to the next... saved alot of work at a later date if it had been missed..!!

Any suggestions, one day it worked and now it doesn't?

How can I covert my 300mph clocks to 180mph please as I want to get the glo dials. Ta Rob

How much are GT2530 x2 fitted please :rolleyes:

After reading the weight saving thread, im really tempted to take out my spare tyre... thing is if i just get a few cans of tyreweld is this legal? and also if i do have a flat tyre that the tyreweld stuff wont fix (ie sidewall damage) then will the rac come out witha space saver..? or am i up sh1t creak without a paddle? Wondering how many other people have gone for this day to day?

Im getting tired of my zed being slightly too noisey so ive decided to soundproof the car... ive got a small amount of dynamat for the boot space (around the spare wheel) but have noticed that either side of the boot there is a gap between the inside of the car and the outside wing. Im going to fill this space with something to try and keep some of the exhaust note out of the car... thing is what to put in the space? Ive heard of people using insulating material (loft type stuff) and expansion foam... just wondering what is going to be light but effective....

Does anyone know where to buy these wheels or have any contacts with people that can get hold of these? I've Looked everywhere for these on the net and the closest ive got it the official site but with no prices :headvswal . I E-mailed them about a week ago but still no reply from them. Any help would be appreciated guys Thx rob

I noticed just over a week ago that the clutch bite point seemed to be a bit higher than it should be. Thought at first it was my imagination, but wasn't entirely sure. Next time I'll trust my instincts I think. Anyway, driving along this morning I noticed that if I was going at 70 or 80 in 4th or 5th and then booted it the revs would suddenly jump about 1000rpm, then drop back down and start steadily climbing again as the car accelerates. This was particularly obvious in 4th gear at 80mph (almost exactly 4000rpm). The revs jumped to around 5000rpm and then down to 4200 or so before steadily climbing. So anyway, new clutch. The car is still quite driveable at the mom…

First time I ran the car low on fuel the light on the dashboard came on. Fueled... and went off as it should. Another time it didn't come on at all... Now it's on all the time... even with full tank?? Any ideas people??? :confused:

hi guys, I was just about to start doing the rear light conversion ( not the real 99 spec, but a pretend conversion - MANY THANKS TO APACHE FOR SENDING THE STUFF DOWN TO ME :bow: ) and I have just realised that i cannot put the rear lights above the oven door to melt the tar cause our oven opens to the side....... any tips on how i can melt the tar to get the lights apart ?? thanks Andy....

Right where do i start? I have just fitted 555 injectors to my car along with GT28R tubs,but i need to move it about 2 miles to my house where it will be parked up until i come back from Spain.However it still has the stock chip in it (Dave Mac has a proper one for me)so i was wondering if i take it easy (not boosting) would i be able to drive it? The problem is i go to Spain tomorrow for 6 weeks.

hi guys,just found out my cars got hardly any oil in it!!! :headvswal had a look underneath it and oil is dripping off what looks like a pump of some sort? its on the left side (as you look at the car) inbetween the downpipe and the bell housing.right by the oil filter.its got a sorta heatshield over it. does anyone know what this is?? or got a schematic of the underside of the car i could look at please? any help would be greatly appreciated! :) thanks
