Hi guys, Does anyone know if Oz still frequents the forums or still has his Zeds? Sold one to him a few years ago and just wondering how it's doing!! Cheers, Daz.

12-14 August, Mine will be there with a 'For Sale' sign on!:ph34r:

Well, a month or 2 back i sent all my intterior up to scotland to Ady682 to flock it for me. Well here is the outcome! And just again, id like to thank Ady682 for the job he did for me :w00t:!! This is a close up of the Quality And a couple of the interior, excuse the dimple like dents in the door card, just where they were leaning on each other, but with some loving rubbing they look normal again!

Spotted twice in Huntingdon now, once in Tesco's carpark and today in front of me going into halfords.

You know who you are, great to see you today mate at mine, and nice of Atlast to pop over too. I am re naming you WD40 boy, as we started working on your zed you just have to spray everything with the stuff, every connector on any electrical wire, jubilee clips, balance bar, plenium. i think even my dog got a hit. Hope the adjustments made a difference, it did sound better and rev alot quicker. Great to see 2 black UK zeds, and a white one all together enjoying the sun. Blocking up my driveway. And yes i have the power to change your username............ :thumbup:

:thumbup: love the Led conversion, really put a smile on my face for the 3am drive to work this morning lol. haven't wired the doors in yet but love the rest, and a quick pic of spoiler, cant make out in pictures but fitted a rear stut brace too. :thumbup:

As above guys. I'm on 18's if it makes a difference. :yinyang:

Hi guys put a bid on the bay the other day for some brake pads only a couple of quid , well foolishly didn't look properly at the ages they are meant for....:blushing: well they are for 83-89 so are they completly different from 1990 onwards or will they fit?

what are the best ones to get and where

Above is teh exploded veiw of a powered steering pump for the zed, this one is for an na, hence why there is only half a pump, the tt versions have a second impellor running at the rear and a sepearte feed from the resivoir. anyways, if yours is leaking and you fancy fixing it, here are my experinces for you. the most common leakage points are the front seal the 'o' ring or rings under the feed from teh resivoir or the pump body gaskets the copper washers on the high pressure lines obviously can fail too. the whole thing can be disasselbed with a 12 and 14mm spanner. you will need circlip pliers aswel to acess the front oil seal and bearing. the…

I watched my zed leave, watching someone drive your pride and joy of the last 5 years off left me absolutely gutted. A small tear and some deep breaths and I feel like I've made a huge mistake.... I cant believe the way I felt watching my car go. Such a unique car I know I'll never have again, anyway... blub over and a new brummie owner now has my car. I pointed him to this group but I dont think hes the "internet" type. I got some parts I'm gonna post up on here over next week or so as I get them out of the shed, but I just wanna thank people here for the help over last 5 years. to finish off the night, Ive no beer to drown my sorrows but theres a bottle …

i am thinking of going to awesome fest tomorrow , however what is the cost for kids or do they go free i cannot find the info on the website so can anybody help thanks neil:walkman:

In for a clutch today thought I would share this, not seen one in the flesh as such before. Jeff TT

Hi Guys, I have owned my Z32 since October last year, It has always suffered with erratic revs when idling. I had to have the cam-belt done about 3 months ago. Since then it feels really sluggish when I pull off and doesn't give the same acceleration it did before I had it done, it also sometimes feels it is going to cut out if I don't give it more revs, I have been told it is likely a sensor or the wiring connections are bad as the guy that did the cam belt said the connections were really rusty... Any ideas please, i was hoping to have a look over it at the weekend but I don't have a clue where to start? Before I got the cam-belt done I spent a stack ge…

hey up! my car has been standing for about a week, everything fine when i parked it. but now the pedal goes straight to the floor. it felt like it was pumping up briefly, but then nothing. there was very little fluid in it (not empty) and i know it was full before i parked up. but ive topped the fluid up and pumped like buggery, to no avail :-( is there a sytematic diagnosis procedure for tracking down the fail point? i know my first task is to see where my fluid went. any advice? many thanks

I have managed to find myself another zed :) yellow NA slicktop as well pics to follow :taz:

really need help, just changed over to my new Led converted pods etc, (look great BTW thanks groover) and my windscreen washer isn't working????? changed back to old pod still not working, what should i do/ check, my MOT is Wed lol. so its going to fail at this rate:blushing: the pump isn't coming on, makes no noise.

hi sorry to post here but i think your PM box might be full, can you pm me, to confirm our booking on wed, and the rough guess at time and the cost so i can get the cash instead of bank transfer# thanks ash.

I can hear squealing from a belt under the bonnet, which one is it as i take it wont be cam belt due to it having teeth and not slipping wich leaves the one attached to the water pump etc... if it squeals now and then is this i sign of it going and needing replacing ??

anyone got that insurance number to put 300 on classic as mine due very soon many thanks

Ok guys, A thread for the clever guys....... My engine build is nearing the stage that i have to start thinking about popping it in the zed. I will be running a chipped ECU for the running-in period. I have an AEM EMS which i will be installing afterwards. I will be running dual intake with a 3.5 bar MAP sensor. So, i've looked over a squillion old threads which has raised some questions. BAZZ for example, switching from AEM to Emerald...why? What are the pros and cons of each? AEM seemed to be the muts nuts in the past, why does it seem this is no longer the case? Over to you.............

Hi, anyone have any idea what the 300's bonnet weighs? cheers.
