Surely no-one's car is 'perfect'... so spill the beans and tell us all what problems your Z currently has - big or small :cursing::cursing:

 

Do not include servicing and basic maintenance, or bodywork issues.

 

We may even be able to help each other if someone has a problem that you've had before, or vice versa.

 

Currently - my gearbox is whining and making funny crunching noises occasionally... I have a replacement sat in the garage along with a Z1 Lightweight Flywheel & Exedy Paddle Clutch ;)

 

My car 'winks' when you flash the headlights, so that needs sorting (bulb is ok) ;)

 

Central locking doesn't unlock the passenger door, but it does have an old clifford alarm that I think came off Noah's Ark :sleep:

where to start

 

Finish off bodykit and respray

fit new wheels

buy new brakes & suspension

Buy interior trim and seat covers

fit new exhausts

replace targa seals

Win lottery to do it all

Oh and finish rebuild of new engine

 

good god when i look at it like that are these cars really worth it..............YES!!!!!!!!

My effing headlights STILL won't work!!!!

New bulbs - nada. Can here the relay clickin on and off but no light. Lil Stevie v kindly took apart my light stalk on Sat night and gave it a good clean out, not that there was any signs of arcing or indeed any malfunction.

So I'm still unable to drive at night. Big fat GRRRRRR!

Time to get the volt meter out and start tracing the cables back !

 

I had similar problems in my old vw bora, ended up being a fault in the fuse holder !

time to employ someone to do that!! I don't own a voltmeter, wouldn't know where to start! I make it shiny and drive it fast, that's where my relationship with my zed ends lol. Got the numer of a sparky from ym mechanic so I'll give him a shout (after pay day)
