"Jesus lady, you nearly poked my eye out!!!"

Following on from my breakin, thanks to everyones help on here I now have; Window sorted (assuming its still there tomorrow morning), thanks Timmy for finding that one, should have it Monday Centre console bit sorted, thanks to Glen for that Dash sorted, thanks to TT Tim for finding that and offering to pick it up and then meet me half way.. So all thats left is to put it all together.. Window should be.. er.. fun.. I guess.. And sort the alarm out - looks like some wires are broken so I guess a call to Bob will be in order, when I can look at the car in the cold light of day (i.e. Saturday, when I peel the four miles of plastic off the side of the car…

Hiya folks, has anyone got a spare 225/50Z16 for front hanging about only my left front is worn on the inside edge and I want to try another tyre on it to see if it cures a vibe I've been having, not bothered what make it is just thats it's 'Z' rated... CheerZZZ Jonny Boy...

I took my 92 UK TT to SE to have some problems looked at, they were: 1. Bad oil leak 2. Engine runs lumpy 3. Some white smoke at start-up from driver’s side There were a few other things like timing belt change but not much else. I have just had a call from them stating the following: “Having looked at you engine we have found that there is low compression an all cylinders, in particular 5 and 6. This is probably due to head gaskets leaking and could well need new valves and rings. The only way to sort it is to take the engine out and do a complete re-build for a set price of £2200” Ok, now I’m not looking to start an SE good or bad debate. …

31 Brits have died since 1996 by watering their Christmas tree while the fairy lights were plugged in. 19 Brits have died in the last 3 years believing that Christmas decorations were chocolate.

Hi, people. Checking that my new rimms fit, with the wheel off the floor- gently tightend nuts- & the hub & shaft was rattling around somewhat! Is it thr rear bushes gone or the U/J, or the hub mountings. Sound familiar to anyone! I've looked but cant exactly define the problem Thanks, harve.

Happened across a sensational looking Zed in Leigh today, black with body kit, was that you submarine? Respect. MCZX

Hi! I've just bought a 91 UK Spec TT and it's fantastic!! Only thing is, now I want to fit it with an ECU upgrade in order to pave the way for increasing boost, etc. in the future. With my car being a UK spec model, are there any major differences I should be aware of or can I just drop a JWT ECU in there? Also what's this 'mines' ECU I keep hearing about? Thanks in advance! John

Sorry guys went to look over the black zed we were storing at my brother in laws house and suddenly the guy who was scrapping it want double what we aggreed yesterday which kinda makes it not viable sorry guys, say that I am gutted it has a pair of elec leather seats in it which I had my eye on doh!! I have sneaking suspicion he may of seen my post last night and the has upped the price accordingly... me thinks I acted in haste. Jeff TT

Now that I've managed to get a reasonable insurance quote to have my TT import chipped, I need to go out and buy a JWT ECU. How much did you guys who were in on the last group buy pay? Also, how did the shipping work from the US? Did you have to pay import duty, etc? Thanks

Tried to set my Cruise Control last night at 120 (Private road officer ) but the max speed it would work at is 100 (MPH) Is this normal ? Herman

Anyone know? Ta

Hello, A while ago there was a thread where someone had found all of the old Zed adverts as AVI. This thread seems to have disappeard and the search only goes back about a week. Can anyone remember where the adverts were, I seem to remember Limewire being mentioned but could be wrong. Better still anyone got a link to the thread? Cheers, Jezz.

I was looking at the vid and photo's of the RR day and something didn't seem quite right with my car. The bloody number plate was wrong. The plates I had on were A at the end and should have been U. Bought the plates at Halfords and the spotty twerp behind the counter must have got the number wrong. Any way have changed them now but decided that it was actually quite a cheep 'snooper' No speeding tickets for me this so far. Will have to be carefull from now on Tim

Has anyone got any tips for fitting a manual box to a 300zx tt. I'm stuggling because there doesn't seem to be enough room to lift the gearbox high enough to get the splines to align up with the clutch plate hole. I spent 2 hours struggling with it yesterday & ended up giving it up as a bad job!! So any advice would be appreciated.

how does the z32 compare to an Audi Quattro Turbo. My dad had the Audi when I was a wee nipper and I always remember it being a sorted car. Anyone have any stats on 0 to 60, handling etc
