Anybody know where I can get a pair of these from? Thanks, Dan

There has been a few questions about wheel spacers so took a few pics of mine.I have 25mm front spacers with 18" wheels 245x40 tyres. Under extream conditions ie very bumpy country roads they do scuff the inner plastic guards a little but on normal roads they are great.The stance looks great I think so here's the pics plus a few others just for the hell of it.

This is the platsic thing on the rear of the drivers door lock and its beyond repair. I have seen the tech fix but Im worried if I use the passenger one and the same thing happens in the future Im stuffed for getting in the car. So does anyone have one of these for sale or know anywhere that I may be able to get one? Its the drivers side and Yellow. Thanks Dave

Hey Guys, My belt at the front of the engine is squeaking and was wondering whats the best fix? Also on the right bottom side there is another pulley but it look likes its disconnected (no belt on it) is that the AC unit part?

hey guys, i just had my advan wheels refurbished and they are like NEW! just thought id recommend these guys to everyone, they are very good value for money considering the finish, they guys there said they can powder coat,paint,machine,weld,polish anything so i thing i might get some brackets and little bits and bobs powdered. would like to have my plenum polished but i dont know if i want to take it off lol. there site is http://www.blackandwhiteinternational.com- they are miles away from me but when i rang them they arranged collection and delivery. there based in nottingham. cheers

Spotted a black zed in car park 15 on Warwick campus about 9:30 today, might still be there.

Can the original factory fitted rubberised rear spoiler be successfully repainted? Mine suffers from the usual cracking/peeling. Has paint technology moved on that allows an improved acceptable finish? I'm aware that fibreglass replacements are available but reckon that it'd be more cost effective to paint original. Your comments, as ever, are much appreciated. Regards

Does anyone know what bung I need, maybe a link to one? I've lost the original but don't fancy the 5p jobby anyways...

Well, ive now got 2 Zeds. Both have no tax or mot. The one at Zedworld is now running, and hopefully will be ready for an mot this week. The other, is in need of some love, i'd say more so than the other one, but has a lot of nice bits on it. I thought about putting them both on the road, making them both nice, then selling the one an keeping the nicest one for myslef. Im now thinking, how long will that take me, and is there any point. Which brings me to my lastest idea. If the first one will pass its mot, i'll be on the road, so thats the project finished with regards to getting it going. I could then take the good bits off the other one, and mak…

Hi guys, Hoping to collect my new toy this week, but hoping to use a recovery a frame such as this - Would anyone be able to confirm if a zed can be pulled using one of these? Thanks Dean

There doesnt seem to be anything on this, so here goes... Just fitted my new steering wheel, but as its a smaller diameter than the stock one and even with the seat set as low as it will go, the top of the wheel still obscures all the dials... In my old MX5 i very successfully did a foamectomy on the seat, and removed about an inch of foam so I sat an inch lower, which is all I'd need to do to the seat in the zed to be able to see the dials. Has anyone removed some foam from the front seat to lower it further?

regaurding some work done by nippon auto spares to my car ive tried searching for it but found nothing it was posted up by jeff when i he had to do the job properly for me. i would like the contents of this thread for my records....

Parked outside a pub called The Victoria (or something), in St Warburtons (or whatever it's called) on Saturday night.

just a few quick questions found a thread for door card removal i assume the dash underside is pretty straight forward....? does anyone know the following two questions? first do the tweed parts of teh door come off seperatly? and secondly how much material would be required to recover all the tweed?

Hi all, i bought these of one of the lads over here last year but i can't remember what Evo they are off. Does anyone recognise them because i need to get pads!!??:hammer: Cheers

Hey, Currently putting new front pads in and noticed two of the pads have spring clip things on them, can anyone tell me if these go on the rear of the disc or the front. They seem pretty pointless they do, guess theyre there for a reason. Cheers!

Finally after two days of bad luck and hardwork i managed to get my car back home. To cut the story short, took a flight to belfast but on the way my wallet was stolen but lucky i put the car money seperately. This indirectly made me miss my ferry back to london. So was totally screwed but was a proud owner of a zed with no money for petrol and no place to stay. Somehow managed to get some money from a friend via a long shot, rebooked the ferry for the next day and left for london on saturday! Short version but was one of the most stressfull days lol However getting of the ferry at liverpool and then driving 4 hours to east london, couldnt stop smiling :D. The car di…

Hi guys, just sorting the little bits out on my car before i advertise it. I have purchased a correct steering wheel [one with no cruise] for the car and just went to swap it over and found they are quite different see pics My question is this can i fit this steering wheel [i think its an NA] and what do i need to buy for it to fit? The old one is the bottom one and the replacement one is above it [obviously]

Has anyone fitted the K N replacment airfilters (the ones that fit the original airbox)to there car, and was there much improvment in performance over the standard type.

Originally this is Groover's baby so all credit goes to him :biggrin: I sent my switch off to him and he blue illuminated it for me about 10 months ago :yes: Off Marty I got a switch that was not worn on the switch, so better than I had so set about lighting it myself in red this time as my interior is either blue or red, Palace fan you see :cry: So Graham, I opened up the chambers inside as much as I could get to and as much as I dared, used two strips, one either side, cut down to 3 smd's on each, I know you did it differently but my confidence in soldering is not good :wacko: I did Dr. Dremel'd it back as well to accomodate the strip thickness and also took …
