Is there anyone out there that knows this man??? I think I have seen him on crimewatch UK!!

Anyone got a rear bumper. I need it for a Jap Import model. I am not sure if the UK bumper fits the Jap import?

Hiya! Could someone please explain, in easy to understand term, how the diameter of the hole in the boost jet relates to a particular amount of increase in boost. I will be installing a JWT ECU chip & induction system in the very near future and need to know what "gas tourch welding tips" to get. I'm not looking to push the envelop too far. Any info would be very welcome. Thanks Danny PS - any suggestions where to get the "boost jets"?

All, I think my clutch is on its last legs, bits high up the pedal travel and sometimes engages with a 'clonk' in lower gears. Not slipping at all though, I assuming its worn. It's due a service next month so I'll get the spanner monkeys to check the master/slave cylinders for leaks, fluid levels ok though. Anyways, Mandela has quoted me just under £400 to supply and fit (inc VAT) for a standard unit. Are aftermarket units cheaper/better? I'm not looking at Stage69 tuning, maybe just inlet/exhaust upgrade early next year, so will the stock unit be up to that? Glenn

Can anyone tell me how the breather kit, that Johnny sells, is working. I don't want to disturb the man himself, as I heard he's rather busy. I'm just trying to decide which way to go. I've got a diagram of a breather kit that Stillen recommends and wanted to see if Johnny's setup is equivalent or better. Appreciate any info. Maciej

Dropped into my local Nelson to pick up an oilfilter & sump plug washer (total incl. VAT =£8.00) and decided to ask if they could quickly re-tighten my fanbelt pulley as it is making horrible screeching noises on cold starts. Was absolutely dumb founded when their head mechanic "popped" out and said "why don't you just spray the engine bay with Mr Sheen - that should get rid of all sorts of squeels for a few weeks". I kid you not! Aparently Nelson likes to put extra grease on the belts when they've been taken off. Needless to say that I jumped in the car, welded my foot to the floor never to return! Danny Oh yeah, and since when does a Consult not work on …

Warren, found a secret picture taken from the interior of your car m8 !

i get two pages worth of posts to catch up on... (yet another) thread that nearly goes to a fight... (yet more) well known tuning company bashing (even more) auto/manual debating aah... it's good to be back even spotted a white Z on my way down the A303/A30 who was waving so frantically that even my kids in the back of the car noticed it... disappointed to not see a post from them though.. a few nice looking graphics offered for me to swap on the board (any chance of fading them out at the edges, instead of the right angle corners... )(am i taking the piss?) some people dont change... wazza "wanna fight ?" timmy "2000+p…

Morning all! Just thought I'd sound the alarm bells with regards to those of us with small bullseyes, chips and cracks in our windscreen. I just had an unfortunate experience with a lorry, lots of little rocks (could have been gravel) and close proximity. I ended up with several small bullseye chips in the windscreen (and numerous paintchips on the bumper and lower spoiler). Took it to my local Auto Windscreen Repairshop and had it all fixed on the insurance (only if you're fully comp). I asked the guy if cars pass MOTs if they have a star or bullseye outside the line of sight of the driver and he showed me documents stating that a car with any chip, star, bullseye o…

Be good to hear from you.....

Before I start, Harvey is considered the best ZX mechanic in NZ by many... I am totally lost with my Z. A rebuilt trans, airflow meter, new plugs, injectors cleaned, virtually an engine rebuild by Harvey misc plugs sensors etc changed and over $9000 spent by the warranty company,. $1500 spent by me, and my car is worse than when I started. No blame on Harvey here folks, he's done a great job on the engine and is an A1 mechanic, but right now I have so much conflicting info I am just about ready to smash this S&*t heap car to pieces. It hesitates under acceleration and the revs surge and fall, surge and fall.....and Fuel consumption is at an all time low wen…

Has anyone tried these ? http://www.ecotekplc.com/ Sounds a bit to good to be true.. but if it even hints at improving economy..........

Here is a link I have found that says if your car is registered before Jan 1992 you can LEGALY remove your cats providing it still passes the emissions test. http://www.catalyticconvertors.co.uk/Catfaq's.html When I have the money I shall be phoning Johnny for replacment pipes. So all you rich people who could afford newer Z all the people who saved hard to afford one of the cheaper ones Stuart ------------------ Aztec Red UK 91 Manual TT [This message has been edited by SRRAE (edited 08-10-2001).]

Lads Although I came from humble beginnings in my lowered, de-badged, chipped, arse wiped Belmont CDi, and then on to my Escort RS Turbo (Wash your mouth out - hated it anyway), then on to my Cavalier Calibre 20Ltr 16v 180BHP (Loved it but screwed me for £5K in 12 months) and then lastly on to my.....DON'T LAUGH.....Rover 416 SLi.....I SAID DON'T LAUGH, I always had a nice box in the boot that made lots of thumping noises. Will somebody please tell me where the hell I'm meant to put that box now. Douglas Barder would have problems fitting in a ZX boot. I know you are probably thinking - what do you want a B-Line for when you've got 300 rubbling horses stamp…

Okay, picture the scene: I walk in from work at 8.50, 'phone ring, it's my mum telling me that they've been without 'leccy for the last 23 hrs, can they borrow my genny. No problem, put 2Kw genny behing the passenger seat with the seat back leaning forward so as not to scratch the leather. So off I go down my country lane and up to the M20, join the M20 put me welly down upt0 100, pass everything and keep going, then I notice in my mirror light approachiong very fast from behind, 'feck, plod' back off to 80 and see what happens. Calibra passes me, not plod at all, ba$$ard, welly down, bye, bye Calibra at about 125, back off, point made. Sure enough Vince t…

Did you get your boost zapper thingy fitted mate? or did you take one look at the weather and go to the pub instead LOL. I went for a Cruise on Sunday down to Sandown sea front. My Zed got covered in a kinda primevil brown ooze blown off the sea. Which was nice ------------------ Glen :)

Hi, I just wondered if anyone else is finding the units to give a warning that is too quiet to be noticed when you have the stereo on (fairly quiet also!). My pervious SRD3000 was the reverse, loud! I'm going to phone performance one tomorrow who make the units) to see if they can suggest any modification.
