Ar about 1.30 pm today leaving Sainsburys carpark. I think it was a J Spec with aftermarket exhaust.

What sort of extra bhp are people thinking if you decat a TT? On my old 200 people said anywhere between 10 an 30bhp... i had it done and it definatly made the car pull stronger so thinking of getting it done for the 300....

anyone on the site do oil filters and plugs (platinum)

Hi, I have a Jap NA, auto with decat exhaust system. I have been having a problem with smooth power delivery at or below 2500 revs. Seems to idle fine after about 1 min. Does not accelerate well, can be lags in acceleration for 1 or more secs when pulling away. Sometimes the car is ok (get nice smooth acceleration) but 90% of the time now it has the problem.. sometimes notice the RPM counter fluctuating slightly as if fighting to keep the engine going slightly... I have done a ecu diagnostics and it came up with Detonation sensor circuit problem. So bearing in mind I am not a great mechanic ;) what could be causing it & what DIY should i be looki…

Slightly moving on from which fuel to use, does anyone rate/use additives you see for sale in places like halfords... decoking/fuel cleaning/coolant enhancing... the list gos on... just wondered if they are worth the money or if using optimax does just as a good a job? Be interested to find out guys...

Mornin chaps, I have a 94 NA. The exhaust sounds very very tinny at low revs. I read somewhere that they have heat shields attached, if they were to come loose would they make this noise, or is it more likely I need a new exhaust, if so what good aftermarket ones are there for a limited budget? Ta. Matt

the speedo needle shoots up to about 110mph when driving around town and as this happens the car misfires, can any1 give me any solution ? cheers

was the Zed ever available with them?

after having my NA Zed for nearly a week and running it on Optimax..put in £110 so far and getting around 25+mpg. what do you run yours on? I wish the 99ron stuff that Tesco does is available up north. Cheapest super unleaded here is Sainsburys at 91.9p/ltr. Does anyone put any addidtives in there fill ups?

ok as i spent about half my school days smoking behind the bike sheds i never learnt to speak japaneese,so wtf are the 4 wires for on the plug n play gauges,backlights yes but why 4 wires,black,red,white,orange :headvswal

I should know but I'm a dimwit so I forgot. :rolleyes: Thanx - Gio

who the side skirts are made by in these pics? cheers

In need of your ideas on the above issue :confused: The noise is louder when the engine is cold and seems to "rev" with the engine. Anyone have a clue? The idle is all over the place also, sometimes normal, sometimes hitting 2000rpm.....don't know if this is related? Cheers :bow: Justin

has anyone fitted R33 324 disk on a Zed with standard calipers, need brackets ASAP

I have a switch in my dash that works some rear foglights on the car...recently this was accidentally re-wired so the light on the switch was on whenever the side or headlights were on. Just tried to get it back how it was by swapping the wires over, heard something go click and now the sidelights, headlights and rear lights have stopped working. Also, when the normal dipped beam is switched on, the full beams light up and don't go on or off with the stalk :mad: The aftermarket foglight swith itself has 3 pins, one of which was going to eath, one taps into the stereo wiring loom, and the other goes to a black relay which itself has 4 wires coming from the bott…

I think ive found the problem with my speedo,it has a KPH to MPH converter in it. When i bought the car it had a clock wich went to 110 which was reading correctly.I then put a UK speedo in it and now its all over the place. The problem is what does the converter look like and where the hell do i find it? :headvswal :)

I have just bought a new front bumper and was wondering how much is a reasonable price for getting it sprayed. I have had a quote for £220 and thought it seemed a bit steep. To be fitted to a 93 reg in dark metallic blue

Anyone know anywhere in the UK where I can get my block/crank Cryo froze? I have looked and looked on TINTERNET and cant find shite! :headvswal :mad:
