do you think this is posible on a full tank of petrol with sensible driving in a N/A

Installed my Brembo brakes from an R33 GTR today. Heres a pic of the brakes I got: The brake discs were free from wear but were badly pitted & corroded! The calipers were pretty flakey with the lacquer peeling off & looked a bit tatty - I made sure the pistons were all nice & free (they were!) & removed & cleaned the bleed nipples. Then flatted them off for painting with some high temp paint & lacquer. Heres one flatted off & one in base coat: And a couple of pics finished with the lacquer on: To do the swap remove the caliper by unbolting the 2 rear caliper bolts & remove the short stee…

Check all the goodies I've got to fit :tt1: :tt2:

Hi guy's, i've never opened the rear lights before for DIY or anything so i'm unsure and before i try to do it i guessed it would be better to ask here . Is it possible to respray the black surrounding inside the lights? I've put a picture to show what i mean ( where the white scribble's are lol ) . Cheers in advance.

Has anyone converted to a electric power steering pump on the Zed? Im in need of some ideas in what pump to use at the best size & price. I know the Saxo and many other Citroens, peogeots and Vauxhalls use them as well as the MR2 and BMW minis. I want to locate the pump where the battery normally sits. Does anybody have any ideas what pump would be best suited to fit in the location? As well as up to the job. I have deleted the hicas completly so im hoping any of the above will be powerful enough. Cheers Dan

Hey Guys, Wondering if anyones seen this z or know who might have owned it?? Seems a good buy for the money. http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2784113.htm Let me know!!

After deciding there wasn't enough time to do the colour change before Japfest I decided to just get the bumpers done and the dent in the quarter panel as it was quicker. We it seems to have led to the the spoiler, which mean tailgate and the painter didn't like the other small dents near the petrol cap so the other quarter is done to!! :scared: Still have the water leak to fix, wheels to paint and the interior to fit in 2 1/2 days, aaargh!

Went to fit my fidanza flywheel today and found this broken-looking thing sat wonky in the hole in the middle :w00t: Is it the spigot bearing I've heard people mention? it is cracked but what does it do and does it 'need' changing? Also got a rear crank seal from smithy but didnt check into part numbers etc, where does it fit?! its not as big as the rear main seal I was expecting :( Meh might as well chuck everything on one thread lol, fished out my knock sensor to relocate it, but the body is cracked, is it worth changing or does the outer shell of it do naff all anyway? thankZ for any help!

When i baught it last year i didnt know too much about these as all i had owned before really was rover 220 coupe's loved em to bits but got fed up of the F*****g things breaking, 3 gearboxes 2 head gaskets etc.... lovely cars tho but not…

after forgetting my mot was due last week i had the pleasure today of getting a phone call from the tester to say the car had gone through with flying colours . thats 2 years running now shes gone straight through . not bad for a 21 year old supercar . :clap: the thing that surprised me most was the emissions result CO% 0.823 HC 146 these seem really low to me . a lot lower than last year . i did put new O2 sensors in a while back . would these be the reason for the low readings ive just checked the old mot for the mileage and shes only done 933 miles in the last 12 months
