Jesus,£50 is less than a tank of fuel.its nothing really tbh if your a zed owner.

The last time i spoke about them to Mike he said he cant get them,the maker started to sell them himself and cut out any middle men.

Jeez,u can get a geniune for that !!

Are you sure you changed the right side?

Pattern ones are available if you wish Gaz for about £100.They are pretty straight forward to fit,no pressing as it comes assembled in a carrier hence the price !!

Unless its The driftworks kit it wont mate,all it will do is replace the rack and utilise the original arms which are the main problem with hicas

If your referring to the top arm bearings then its worth bearing in mind that Vosa issued a special notice regarding 300zx top arm play and not to fail worn bearings unless they came outside a given tolerance.Its been a year since i was testing but if i recall your allowed alot of play before its deemed unroadworthy.

check the gauge sensor,usually the terminal cracks which causes the needle to read lower than it should,the sensor is the small plug on the water pipe which is directly in front of you looking at the cam belt covers.

Lets be fair though guys,the reason women get cheaper insurance is because if a doris does claim its only cheap compared to a mans,women have scrapes etc,men wipe out if they crash usually due to speed.We all know this really dont we :sneaky2:

Check out this crazy drift vid,the turbo is from a scania truck !!

I have to say though it does seem crazy but ford purists would argue its well worth it,who knows?? all i know is they are ubber rare now,an engine rebuild on one costs ten grand !! iirc.Parts are in short supply and specialists have tooled up and made new components so the costs have rocketed.Quirky little cars and so predictable to drive.I love them but each to there own i suppose,ive always had a soft spot for Escorts and some othe choice Fords ie 3.0 litre capris,cosworths etc.

Jeez youll be in the advanced stages of malnutrition in no time,its barely a starter :biggrin:

I remember a guy in the south west at the Brean down stage using an ex works Daily mirror Mk 1 escort which had been driven by Roger Clarke,he parked it up when he found it it was valued at £100,000 .Serious folks these little old fords make big money now.The rs 1600 is like rocking horse shit now.id prefer a gt40 myself though but the rs is probaly rarer.

its not a lotus,its an rs1600 which boreham made.worth loads more than a lotus.

Its hard to tell from your description but possibly a lifter,most common cause of zed engine rattles,sometimes some lifter treatment will sort it.It could be so many things though,if your that worried dont drive it and have it looked at in case it causes more damage.

Thats spot on eh,put mine through friday,passed with flying colours,one advisory relating to a chip in the front wheel.My cars done 1000 miles since its last Mot :sad:

Take a look at this,dangerous really but you cant help but laugh http://www.ebaumsworld.com:80/video/watch/80688242/

Have a good day Richard,best wishes :happybday:

My fave bit is when he drops the car at the car park and the two valets promise to take good care of it :punk:

Train sets Lol pissin myself here :lol::lol:.Aww cheers guys for all the comments.Im building myself up for a big blow out Saturday nite,can you send that book please Brian anyway not that i need it :whistling:

Bri i couldnt put it better myself,its a freakshow imho and i just dont get it?? why would anyone wish to communicate via there? or read posts like "im doing the ironing" which im told is commonplace?? maybe were mad or summit.

Unless he plans to run big power the non applicable pump will cope mikey.
