Hiya folks. Just fitted an MPH chip to the back of the clocks. Followed the instructions and took the car out for a wee spin. Speedo reads what I cinsider to accurate - up to about 28mph, then flicks down a few times, then needle goes to zero. Over 28mph, reading is zero, at 28mph when slowing up, need le comes back to 28mph and accurately measures speed til rest. In short - speedo accurate under 28mph. All other speeds reads zero. I've fitted a few of these chips to other cars with no problems. Any ideas? Guy I bought it from said it worked fine in his auto(mine is auto as well). ps - Celica gen6 is exactly the same - they probably all are, jus…

Hi Guys, Had an accident in the Zed about 18months ago due to a fox and a slippery road!!! :mad: :headvswal The dilema now is do I try to fix her up or break it up and use my money to buy a new one.

Performance air filter Performance exhaust including decat pipes. JWT Chip Standard bodywork and wheels. The damage is all on the OS but includes the front bumper, front wing, door and quite a bad dent in the rear quarter. Other things that could do w…

I recently bought a Z. it was advertise as a Twin Turbo, unfortuntly after looking on this website realise it not, went back to the man and he say it was the advertsing company and well i couldnt do much abt it since i allready parted with my money. so, just wondering how badly is the non turbo compare to a turbo and is it worth upgrading it or better of buying a new Z.

Im thinking of swapping out my interior light for a more modern "theater" style (which fades slowly when the doors are closed..). And also thinking at the same time of swapping over tothe more soft light of the higher power leds around on the market....

at last final decision... im gonna rebuild my whole engine for a more powerful than standard engine. the head and tubs need replacing. its a 1990 manual in black with leather interior where do i start. what i want to do. 1 replace injectors with 780cc 2 replace tubs with more powerful ones blitz ecu 3 ported heads? (need advice ) 4 new gaskets all round neoprene vacuum hoses (shall i bore out cylinders in which case i will need new pistons, rings etc) what about cam angle sensor? macca whats my options... the way i see it if im gonna pay for a new engine (£1000 min) might as well spend it on a rebuild. you seem to be the expert…

When i brought my zed i was told the hicas was disabled and thought nothing of it, but having looked a bit closer the hicas light intermitantly gos off.... so im thinking it probably hasnt been disabled and is just playing up... it seems to come on and go off as it pleases, sometimes it stays off for ages other times it flickers off/on then stays either of or on, but i cant really find any pattern to its behaviour... anyone got any suggestions on what might be going on or where i can start with this...?

The zed had stainless exhausts,rear spoiler and i think 18" wheels rear lights were modded too. Reg had the the word RAT in it was a dam fine example of a zed! :dance: :dance: :dance:

from reading the book, this seems possible and easy. just wondering what peoples thoughts were if a clutch switch is fitted, is this correct Once a certain preset parameter is meet and the clutch depressed a second rev limit comes in. allowing you to change gear without over reving and not comming too far of boost, as you can keep your foot flat to the floor. This should only happen when the revs exeed the set level? and will operate normally if the revs are below the limit. the best switch to use is one from the front brake system of a motor bike, as this designed to have acertain amount of pressure before they work. and that a car brake switch is over sens…
