Hi guys Does anyone know if Dave still has my old bayside blue car ? The last thread I can find is from 2011 when it says he had it but the car was off the road. Any info would be much appreciated. Mark

Just saw this on eBay at £34.95, so did a quick search and found it for £16.00 on Amazon.....Thought it would be a good investment at that price. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ring-Automotive-RSC500-Maintenance-Charger/dp/B00499DTVK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1390770014&sr=8-1&keywords=Ring+RSC500

Guys and girls, I know it has been said many many times before, but please check your timing belts if you don't know it's history!!! After another great day at Mr. Lee Dent's place today, where he is busy working on my Zed, when we took the timing belt covers off, this is what we found: - More next post.

I see this today. Nice example... It was in good shape from what I saw. It was pulling out from a side road onto the main A2.

Has anyone hardwired a USB charger? I'm gonna be using my android phone with my new head unit, but the bluetooth drains the battery of the phone like a darts player drains Johns Smiths. I was thinking of just butchering a 12v belkin adapter (the kind that plugs into the cig lighter) and taking a live feed from behind the cig lighter. If I have it right, a 12v to 5v/1amp will do the job. What have other done? Or see anything massively wrong with my idea?

I am about to have a n.a rear end conversion done to my man tt. this has to be the best way to get rid of my hicas and make my car faster in the process. Whilst on the subject i would like to thank Ian of whom i bought it, and his time and help. And a huge massive BIG UP for the one and only LEE DENT who not only took it off for me but then went on to drive and take it from shrewsbury to Nottingham for me to Mark Derbys place, where its soon to be fitted along with my shells and bearings etc that Mark ordered from the states for me. A big thanks also to Terry from Sheppey in Kent who very kindly donated, foc, a rear set of shocks complete with springs that have done les…

Hi all been a member for one day and I'm already needing advice. I can't find the right fitment bulbs for my car, it's an 1990 import if that helps. I've taken the old one out and it says ' H3C 12v 55w' Halfords don't do them and I can't find them anywhere else? Can anyone please let me know which ones I need and where to get them from. Cheers guys!!

"Listen Mr insurance broker,ive got 7 policies with your company so i want a deal".. "How can i help you sir" said the fat insurance broker.. " I want to renew my ZX insurance and want you to do better than last year".. "Ok" said fatty...."let me call you back".. "Hello Mr Jones how does £119 fully comp with windscreen cover included and £100 excess sound to you?" said fatty.. " You have the contract!!!!" i told him.. :dance::dance:

So, I had my coilovers fitted today on the Zed. Anyway, after the garage had fitted them I took the originals home and noticed something on the parts which I hadn't seen when the car had been on the ramps. I thought the car had just standard shocks/springs since they were so rusty... I noticed some green beneath the rust and after having Teins on my previous Zed, I thought I would investigate... Ta da! They were Teins after all! And I didn't know this in the slightest! So, it looks like these could be useful to someone. So, I am thinking a good clean and stripping down might result in usable Teins again. Does anyone think this is a good id…

Get in car this morning, start sit there for 3 mins while windows clear, pull out of my drive half way up road and car just stalls.

Tried starting but wouldn't just turned and turned without firing for about 5 mins of trying then it started, as from earlier automatic choke still on as it was idling about 1 n half usually afterwards it drops down to just beneaty 1000 but it was rough idlin…

Any members got any advice or opinions on fitting this lip? It fits very nice holding onto bumper, any ideas on attaching it etc. thanks
