Been looking for a flypress for a while and final got one. For people who dont know these are used to bend and punch holes in sheet metal amoung other uses. Ordered some angle iron last week and made and stand for it now ready to rock an roll. Just start my first job for my new press. I have to make 5 floor panels 1200mm x 760 for the local church baptism pool. The pool is sunken into the floor and when not in use is covered with these floor panels.

Well, got my ARC intercoolers through today thanks to Peter (Nend) Started to get it stripped down today - pic of the stock intercooler in place: Couple of shots of the stock v ARC intercooler: One thing I have found out is that one of the outlets is angled on the ARC intercooler as opposed to the straight outlet on the stock cooler - this means I am going to need to get some straight coupling pipes to fit the new ARC cooler to the stock hardpipes on the outlet side. ARC intercooler in place: The main thing that amazed me was how restrictive the stock core is compared to the ARC core - I took a couple of pics but looking at…

For the technical minded folk out there remind me the reasons that the hicas light comes on while driving? Checked oil level and is fine. Plus this is on a 95+ zed with electric rear hicas

I have a toad and want to add a couple of features like total closure, do you have the instructions Lee?

Hi peeps, There are a lot of people saying I can, then there are another saying I can't... I just bought a Hawk HA-280PRO and wondered how you would wire it into my HKS turbo timer...? Also, how do I take the panels off to get to the door switches?? Thanks, Ant

Just a public thanks to Andy who last week bought a spare ptu round for me to try and sort my hesitation out. After a bit of fiddling and cleaning, all seems well. Cheers mate.

hey folks before i start i know this is not good but how bad i dont know gear box crunches in race mode from 4th to 5th i can control this by just letting the revs come back down to say about 4k but still if your in a rush gear change at 5k from 4th to 5th should be smooth eh , ?

Well, I think my starter motor may be on the way out. Takes several turns of the key to get any response to start the engine and sounds a bit iffy too. Thinking of sourcing a reconditioned unit rather than risking an old one off eBay etc. Does anyone know a good source of reconditoned units at reasonable prices?

Found out yesterday that my zed and Luke from zcenter zed are going to be run side by side in a 10 page issue about our Zed's! They said it will be in the October issue but will be out in middle of Sept?

Got a strange one here. Someone I know has an auto NA 1991 and he's having a problem with his gearbox. In a nutshell when he starts it up puts it in drive it seems to jump into second gear thus stalling the car. After doing this a couple of times the fault seems to go away for a while Any ideas or is it a new box time for him Thanx Ade.

Hi All, I recently discovered drops of what can only be described as a gooey oil on the driveway under the drivers side front of the car. Took the car to my garage today who examined the area and showed me that the front bush had split and was leaking from it. are these expensive? I know you can get replacement poly bushes but i want to know if it's better to fit these or go for the stock oil filled ones? can anyone send me a link for ebay to a pair of these? Cheers Peter

Does £135.00 sound about right to you guys??
