Whilst stripping down the engine i got er in drawers to get scrubbing on the parts to be refitted. amazing results considering even the head is coming out like this! Latz

Thanks all for the help on the F plate problem, now i have another question now do i stop the car going beep beep when reversing? These japs have some funny ideas!

I was chatting to a fellow Z owner at the gym tonight and he said that he would love to own one of the limited edition Z's that were 450BHP standard. I said what limited edition Z's that is 450BHP standard. He said that they were the last right hand drive models made and there were only a small number. Hence Limited Edition. The only thing I can think that it might be is a 3Ltr TT 32V. I went to get an oil filter one day from the local motormania and he showed me in his book that there was a filter for a 32V and a 24V model. Anyone know anything about these mystical cars?

when at idle there is a lot of hissing going on should there be. you can stop the hissing by squeezing the pipe between the mio filter and the one way valve. i just wanted to know if this is right. are they open at idle and closed under acceleration?

Right Chaps, After filling up this AM and then getting clobbered by skip lorry debris (easy repair!) I got back into my car after wok and noticed a very lumpy idle, going from 500 to 1000 revs.... I left work and noticed a lack of power....then it went, then it backed off (foot still on pedal) then it went, then it backed off...... Met Jeff for a spot of car improvement shopping, asked him to get in for a spin, put my foot down turbo's were spooling perfect but it semed like the engine was holdin back (Like I had my foot on the brake....) an refused to go, then went, then stopped, then went and then I backed off the gas. Lifted bonnet checked for pipes…
