800bhp Zed anybody?
Its the fact its handwritten for a 6k invoice Jeffs getting at Ian.Nowt to do with adding or altering.You spend that money you expect a printed well detailed invoice not a scribbled list of costs.

Another rusty zed
Well done for taking that on youve done a good job.You could do with twice as many spotwelds along the sill repair panel though .

rear end jumping
The bushes would have to have disappeared completely to give wheel hop.Rear shocks for sure.Many people are riding around on leaking rear subframe bushes with no idea they,ve gone.

What can be polished up?
All those can be polished up and will look great for as long as you can be arsed to constantly keep them buffed up and coated with polish,Its high maintenance so be warned.Leave it parked for a bit and its damp and the white corrosion comes knocking in droves.The rockers can not be got to so will go first trust me.

heavy white smoke, car sounds like a subaru and lots of oil in the exhaust
smoke at idle,misfire prolly caused by oil on spark plugs is probaly tub failure imho.Do a comp test to be sure though.

Faulty Dett sensor code 34? running rich???
Code 34 is a fault code,if the car detects detonation is does not register a code 34 it retards the timing and drops to a knock map if the ecu has one (some chips dont) which increases fuelling for engine protection.

Japfest Track Session Video.
That c*ck in the 350 drove like a cu*t,he lost it before camp at the chicane and understeered off the track when he finally got some steering he just drove back onto the track as if he was the only one driving,and almost hit Murt !! How the guy can say Rob drive like a k**b is a total pisstake.

Japfest Track Session Video.
Great vid bud,its great to see a zed sideways :tt1:.You need to check the o2 sensor on that bank is working,id also be concerned that an injector may not be spraying correctly.

piers and prescott
How true that is Al,did you see him when that journalist Louie ferrou spent a few days with him.it showed him for the **** he was.I have to admit he can come across like a decent guy but should have never been allowed into government.
-
oem or acl bearings
As David said i do use ACL bearings,the grading is a load of *****x imho,the difference in the grades are microns ffs.I use duraglides when i can get them.Ive had trouble of late and had to use race ones which are quite a bit more expensive.

TT's have LSD's right?
