How much, and where can I order a zeemax louvered panel like mac1's?

Just been to Halfords and bought some 130W bulbs and a set of rectangular driving lamps to fit in the front skirt. Has anyone wired a set in to come on with the main beam and if so how's it done? The lampos come with a harness and dash switch. I've seen a write up to make the fogs come on like this so I'll probably do this too and make my Z look like a christmas tree! Are the main/dipped/fogs all on separate fuses? Just wondered if uprating the bulbs will result in a meltdown when all on at once?

anyone with front calipers for sale ??? if so please contact me. thanks

Anyone else out there with a Z who lives or drives in shropshire

Hi, I hope someone can help me, I've got a 91 Zed,Jap impoted, twin turbo. I've only had her since March, and the english manual says nothing about this button, what it is for or how to use it. I haven't come across to many Imp owners here in Noosa so it's tough trying to ask someone. So I'm hoping you can help me.By the way I'm from Australia Thanks

Hi guys by now you must of read about Danny`s car today and the mystery sudden dead battery. It`s winter guys! we all are guilty of forgetting to check the battery until its too late.The problem is made worse for us Auto guys (don`t u lot start)as a bump start is impossible.As a rule in the built in battery condition site glass that has a green to red colour range on some battery is a good guide, but don`t be fooled Danny`s battery was showing green (ie all ok) just because the car starts and seems ok the old battery can be suffering from low electrolite level.Topping up after the plates have been exposed is fruitless as air will have started to effect the lead plates s…

Getting serious about track days, esp the fact that Pukekohe - our local track - has some serious hairy high speed corners so it's rollcage time. I'm getting a half cage fitted w harnesses as a From Rowan To Rowan xmas pressie. I'm wondering if anyone in the UK has installed one and have any "gotchas" to look out for. I want to tie it into the roof but thats death to the interior so I'll probably hold off for a little while. The US design ones are crap, way too low across the roof line (probably even below the top of your helmet!) . Rowan

Ain't got it meself, but I know a bunch of you went for it in the recent group buys. Anyway: My Supra-owning friend has developed a Windows app allowing you to monitor and configure all of the traction control system's settings from a PC. In his own words: "...one guy used it to find out that the default settings supplied by Racelogic with the unit to supra owners aren't right. Wonder if your 300 boys would find a use for it! " If you want more info or would like to try it, email Graham at: graham.rudd@net.ntl.com He's expecting you Here's a couple of shots:

Hi, does using Mobil One 15-50 mean you leave it longer to change the oil or do you still have to stick to the stipulated intervals, any ideas. Mark

Wazzas quest for speed had gone too far this time... Tim

Hi all, Need your help diagnosing the problem. Haven't used the car since late Tuesday afternoon (did move it to a different parking space yesterday and all was fine). Just now as I'm trying to start the car nothing happens. All the warning lights come on and when I turn the key to start the car there is a very loud rattling noise coming from the engine. I've never had this before (in any of my previous car) so I don't know what the problem is. I left no lights on, doors open and the alarm/central locking is working fine so I guess that rules out the battery. Anyone here who can enlighten me? I hope to have it sorted quickly as I need the car late…

Is there any forum members who do servicing/ belt changes and other general stuff for zx's? Need to get some bits done on the zx and im sure some of you guys would do a much better job than most garages out there ? CheerZ

I have a portable DVD Player in the car and when putting DVD's in (any region), the Player just sits there for a while doing nothing - as if it can't recognise it, then on the display appears a message - C13. Music CD's pickup okay on it. I've tried Sony's site for help but to no avail. Does anyone know of any other decent sites which could advise me what this means. Cheers Chris
