Serious tyre wear please help !!!
Id say get another garage to check tracking and the problem you have is usually sagging front springs causing a lot of negative camber.A proper check should prove this.

1st gear jump
Ive had quite a few dealings with pk6 boxes in lagunas and master vans,basically the syncro has gone mate or a bearing has let go causing excessive endfloat.The box is quite a fiddle to get out.You have to lower the crossmember the steering rack sits on really to get it out.The pk6 is quite a weak box and well known for failure.The newer pf6 box is better but still has its problems.The box is easy to strip too.

Injectors....
Alan get some deatschwerks ones,ditched my venom ones years ago and guess what ? my car now passes the mot emission test properly now and doesnt leak fuel from the rail constantly.I rate them and have fitted quite a few sets for people now with no complaints.

Airlock on bypass pipe
You wont clear that probaly,thats pure heat overcoming the engines cooling system and cooking the coolant in the pipe after the engine is turned off.Id look at why the engines running so hot to cause that.

Rs 1600 is uber cool.Worth far more than any zed and always will be.Its an icon from the early 80,s and will only ever go up in value now :cool3:

Adjusting the clutch
Use a 14mm midget spanner.Gets on the nut a treat :gun_bandana:

Central 20 ecu
The only safe way to tell is get it on a dyno and get them to check the afr at 14psi.Jap chips run aggressive timing maps as they use higher octane fuel than the uk.

First time driving zed without a short shifter !
I drove loads of zeds with short shifters and never liked at all.good man for taking it off.Box munchers i reckon.The zed,s shift is designed to work with the stock stick and knob.Thats why the knob is so heavy,its weighted for a reason.All short shifters do is reduce the travel on the gearstick which is hardly a long change anyway on a zed.

N/A Diff = No HICAS, right?
You have a stock 95 rear subframe matey with electric hicas as it should be.

I dont know how bud but you have the fuel rails on back to front,that swan neck should be on the drivers side as it goes into the fuel damper.Great stuff for getting the engine in though.:gunsmilie:

Z1 Import Charges
The jwt sport 500 is a great turbo and capable of maxin out the fuelling capacities of stock injectors.the gt525,s are a bit more laggy as its impeller is much larger,but it will give you a bigger kick in the arse higher up the rev range.ive just imported $5500 of z1 parts and the import charges were £370.so your tubs will cost around £180 ish id expect.
-
Dipstick tube removal??
I Tap them out from underneath once the manifold is off with a parrallel punch.make sure you refit it with a bit of sealer to avoid any leaks.drive it fully home using the collar.if its not fully in the block your oil reading will be incorrect.
