Hi guys I was a member about a year ago but need a little help. I remember that a member of the club had a signature image I used to love; it was a Z in colour against a rugged (kind of Grand Canyon) backdrop which was dark and in black and white. I have been trying to describe it to my g/f but she hasn't got the faintest what I am on about. Anyone point me in the right direction? pleeeez!

Can anyone tell me that the two pipes I have arrows going to are meant to be connected please? Cheers, Ant

I've got a Greddy Turbo Timer which has been successfully waiting 40secs before turning my engine off. Now i am one to touch and fiddle, and after looking at the manual, decided i wanted to investigate further the workings of the device. However, after trying to get in to it from the front panel i appear to have totally nadgered it right up, in my defence, i will say some of the instructions in the manual are i bit vauge and the key combinations simply do not work! Anyone got any suggestions or can tell me if there is a software reset switch thanks Rich

...not me! the Z! Relegated the spare wheel to some dark corner of the garage and replaced with a large can of tyre weld. My electric driver's seat remains untrimmed - I intend to replace this with a manual drivers seat and trim that. The two remaining bits im thinking of is the N/A subframe (to junk the hicas) and naturally the diff as well ;) and perhaps the aircon. TBH i'll probably not go further than that as I want to keep the right ratio between performance and 'comfort'. Although annoyingly my distant future brake upgrade will pile it all back on again :( And I still struggle to save weight by constantly getting rid of that damn V-Power ;)

I have been driving the Zed for a month now and after my last visit for a conzult @ Zedworld we found thet the thermostat is jammed open the engine is running too cold and is spending most of the time in safety mode. I'm up to Zedworld on Thursday to get is sorted and i'm also having an ECU upgrade. my questions are as follows: How much of a difference is there between safe boost mode and normal mode (ie performance difference) and secondly how much of a difference will the ECU upgrade make? (Jeff reckons about 70bhp) but what will this equate to on the road? Thanks for your help people.

I bought and paid for a pair of recaro sets for the zed that was Sport Seats - Trim Finish: Ambla Leather black / Dinamica Suede black Sport Seats - Optional Extras: With Belt Guide Package price: 2 seats, 2 universal frames, 2 sliding runners - £1275.81 – Total price. They confirmed this twice. I sent the money by paypal as agreed then got an e-mail saying they wanted more money as they had made a mistake. It was about another £50, I was less than impressed and asked for them to send me the seats at the agreed price or issue me with a refund. Here is my mail Garreth Thanks for the refund, "unfortunately a lack of planning on your part sho…

omg what a poofy hooter they have, i really need to get a different one fitted that sounds as macho as the car looks. any recommendations please :)

I’m looking in the near future for a manual tt, just trying to find as much information out as possible before the right one comes along. I have noticed some of them don’t come with leather, and wonder how universal the seat are to swop over between the models, does the seat belt move between s1 and 2 cause any problems or are the electrics different? Thanks for the info.

i know theres a way to remove minor scratches of metal but what about plastic , theres a few bits of plastic in the zed that has minor scuffs , is there such a thing
