That a proper list! Your not driving it lol that are you? Number 31 particularly screams this car shouldn't be driven.

It would probably be cheaper to buy a rusty zed to use as spares mate.

Not that much, seen much, much worse............

Huh, my rear windscreen fogs up a lot when the weather is cold, like I'll need the demister on constantly. Should I check my carpet?

Yes check around the drivers foot well in particular where your left foot would be when driving, if your loosing any coolant then the heater matrix could be the issue, if not the targa drains can cause wet carpets more so on the passenger foot well.

Jeff has done a grand job for you there mate.

 

You're going to have the plenum off for a lot of that, a good way to learn a lot about your car and engine. Probably worth finding some threads about plenum pulls. I did one and can try to find you some information but many others have too.

 

There are a load of things you can consider simplifying/removing and replacing as you do it.

 

Some of those bits will be a few quid though unfortunately, windscreen may be a few hundred, I believe there is a bmw one that will fit. Jeff will know. Injectorsx6 will be a few quid. But you have loads of time to do all this.

No dampness in either footwell, but thanks for the tip.

Sorry just seen your said rear screen, check for boot leaks, common one is the rubber grommet around the wiper arm, and the rear lights.

Ah that makes sense, I do have a very slight leak from either the wiper arm grommet or the spoiler. But I've derailed this thread enough. ;)

I was going to buy a 2nd Z for like 700 cad which is like £400 the same day I bought my car but then there was this other guy who brought more money and now I'm buying some parts off him but I'm going to look for a 2nd cheap Z

Yeah well I'm doing cheapest to most expensive first cause I'm not planning on driving It for 2 years since I'm not of age

Just remember, it's cheaper to do things properly once than to fit dubious, old, or Chinese parts, repeatedly.
