Hi all my girlfriend has a z import twin turbo. But something is flatening the hateful if not moved for three days. Any ideas would be greatfull to solve this problem..:-)

About 08:45am today saw a white zed with 99spec front spoiler waiting at the Glenfrith Way/A50 roundabout.

So I'm driving back to Surrey from Hammersmith earlier tonight, I've got an Audi behind me on the A3 wanting to break the speed limit. The speed limit is changing up a few miles per hour, so I think, I'll down it a few gears and show this muppet what he's pissing off. As I do so and floor it, the car makes a loud BANG, could swear I saw a load of smoke out of the exhausts and it's running like a bag of spanners, "NO MY TURBOS!". Water temperature and oil pressure are both perfect and below 2000 revs it's smooth as a babies bum, so I try to coast gently up the rest of the A3, hoping to limp it back to Surrey and if need be, take it to my old tuners in Tolworth in the …

Hi, I'm hoping someone could give me some advice. When I bought the car, I had originally planned to use it as a daily drive and bazza was good enough to throw in an extra set of wheels (with a little persuasion :P ) which I had intended to use for the winter. Just over a month later I am smitten and after doing a bit of math it seems daft putting loads of extra miles on her on the tedious drive to work and back, especially given there isn't one opportunity along the way to have a little fun :). With that in mind I've bought myself a little diesel corsa which given our girt is a thirsty lass pays for itself in fuel in 4 months ha and it also means I don't really nee…

Does anyone know what the limit of the standard recirculation valve is in psi? Cheerz people, Alz.

Hi Guys, got some issues with my gearbox, Bought the car with a known problem, Gbox stayed in safety mode. Initially the problem was thought to be the speed sensor, however after swapping it out with a good one, the problem didn't go away. General reading on this site and others, indicated the Box was buggered. So with the help of Vodkashots (what a guy!) the Box was removed, upon first check it seemed okay, however then something happened which led me to beleive the box was really f'd up. Any way, Here's my car... here's my box, but i dont think i should be able to do this!! Any way, does anyone think the box is refurbish-able.. Rich

So how is it, in the last 3 days, I've driven my gunmetal Z, with obviously unpainted sills, from Doncaster to Glasgow and back and from Doncaster to Surrey, up into and around London and back down to and around Surrey and not one person spotted me? For crying out loud, on Sunday there was also a black and yellow Z and a Silver Z in convoy with me!! It's not fair, I want to get spotted! :(

Whilst cleaning my rear wheel tonight i noticed that the metal to which the back bumper secures to just behind the back wheel was quite badly rotten, as I touched it, some fell away :-(. As far as I can see this metal runs parrallel to the bumper and exhaust right to the back of the car, it all seems quite badly rotten. Can this be replaced like the sills can be? Or do I need to get someone to fabricate a new part up?? Thanks, Dan

No spoiler, could be NA. N reg, or thereabouts I think. Not seen that one around here before,

Flashed you this morning in my Punto (silver/grey), but you also saw me in my Zed a week last Saturday on the same stretch of road.

Stumbled across this beauty whilst getting lost in Kensington today trying to find where I had to work! Sure I've seen it on here before but not 100%!

Im sure this was the same car where the women had split up with her man and she was selling his zed?? could be wrong but the photos look famillier?? Any way if it is it has a new write up :lol::lol: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2946209.htm

I put a club card under your wiper :-D car looked a treat

I have fitted my greddy boost gauge today and im only getting 0.5 bar of boost which i belive is low? its a standard manual tt with only an apexi filter, egr, aiv, prvp, carbon canister all removed and cat back system. What should i be getting (is 0.7/8 about right) and what would be the reason im not getting full boost?

ECU Pin 44 and Auto ECU Pin 20 as i have two wire per switch does one of each get grounded to the body or an earthing point and other say + of the wire go to Pin 44 for N and Pin 20 for Rev Mark

Hi guys, ideas appreciated if any. as title reads really. Car starts - revs - fluctuate a little - then dies. It was better before I change the idle control valve. At least it stayed going. Dave
