Hello all. I'm not new to the site, but I tend to read posts instead of replying. There seems to be good advise all around. Right, here's the problem. My HICAS and hand brake dash lights started coming on a week ago. I went to Halfords today and got some Castrol Dexron III to fill the power steering resevior. (ya my spelling sucks!) In the car park I went to put it in and got slightly distracted by a female wearing a flattering bikini top. Next thing you know, I found myself filling the brake fluid cylinder with Dexron III. :eek: Too late, filled it to the top. I did top up the HICAS/power steering one also. Is it safe to drive my Zed like this until I can …

Hi to all. Alittle techical question. I am in the middle of replacing my rear sub frame in my 90 spec uk tt. My question being, can you get rid of the diff cooler , that inturn feeds a small radiator to the side of the rear sub frame and from that , cooling pipes that lead out to the rear of the car behind the rear bumper...I'm not exactly michael schumacher on the roads and would generally not drive the car as such, but for the odd blast here and there...Am I right in believing that the jap spec versions of my car do not carry the cooler at all? Then why do the uk one's have one ? :cool:

I need to take a feed to light up my new boost gauge. Thinking of somewhere from the light switch cluster but don't know which to use as they are all different colours. Anyone used this or something similar?

I'm assuming Z wheels should have 5 bolts / studs (I can't clearly remember even though it's only a week since I dropped mine off), but does anybody know what the pitch circle diameter is? Cheers, Bart

Hi, in the last week or so im getting a low idling as if the car is about to cut out , fluctuates between 5/700 revs . Fine while im driving it, its only when the engine's warmed up and i stop at lights etc. Ran the diagnostic and im getting 55 all clear.Any ideas? :confused:

I was talking to a mate of mine the other day who runs a G reg non ABS Z - and he doest seem to get the crap brake fade at high speed that im getting. Frankly sometimes it seems as though my ABS is just rediculous and im not going to stop in time for the roundabout ahead. Is this a common problem with ABS models ? If so - whats the best way of sorting that abs out ? I have got EBC Pads, and Rotora Braided lines -so my brakes at low speed are great - but on the motorway they are awful - any views/ideas ? :confused:
