Had a new z1 gt500 fail on my fathers car shortly after fitting it.Z1 replaced it under warranty and gave $500 for the inconvenience of having to pull the engine again:eek:..Im astounded.Big thanks to Shawn and Russell at Z1.

Thats probaly the most common boost leak youll find on a zed.easiest tool to tighten the D/side is an 8mm hose clip screw driver with a flexible shaft.The nissan clips are 8mm but they may have been changed to jubliees which are 7.

:rofl:FPMSL :D

Isnt the reserve over £150 a bottle.Am i right thats the one that is just crystals its so concentrated.One grain would cause burns to your tongue.When i first tried Blairs mega death sauce i thought i had a urine infection as it even burned taking a p*ss after!!

Blairs sauces from the states are mental if anyone fancies a go.I have a bottle of a million scoville "Mad dogs revenge" which is the size of a nail varnish bottle but takes 14lbs of chillies boiled down to make.A teaspoon of it is mental in a curry.I find it hard to believe that was a naga chilli as youd probaly vomit when it hit your stomach as that much concentration would be dodgy in one go.

Some of us dont work set hours im afraid,At work i finish when i finish.You going sunday,if so bring them then.

If it smokes all the time it sounds like your piston or ring lands have gone.Have you had a compression test done?

Youll need deep pockets for lifters.Oem ones are over £500 a set.They can be refurbed yourself if you have the time.The link for doing them yourself is on here somewhere.If your doing them do all of them.Id say its about a good days work to do them or thereabouts.

The red zed outside the cafe is a mate of mine.Elliott does come on here from time to time.

His Zed will be done for this date,Great aint it,leave your car for a week and its fixed and put back in your garage when you return from holiday.

Im sorry bud but that just sounds like a liability to me.£500 seems to good to be true and it probaly is.

That almost certainly looks like detonation damage.You need to get to the bottom of the cause or it will happen again.

I see this zed on and off on Gloucester rd.A middle aged guy drives it and hes always got a shirt and tie on.Its dark purple/aubergine when you get close to it.

Didnt sound bottom end like to me either.The rattle is to tickey if you know what i mean.

If your dipstick is coming out and spraying the battery with oil its time to do a compression test.You may have piston/ring land failure.

if the car has lost water then the temp gauge cant read anything.the sender needs to be sat in water to give you a reading.

James funge was selling a Fidanza flywheel on here.One of the best youll get and for cheap money at the price he wants.

As Paul says chards will sort you out but brace yourself as the guy who overseas the work will want to totally rebuild your prop and build you something that could have been used on the QE2.Be firm and insist that you only want doing what you asked him and it wil be fine.The workmanship is good but Nigel is a bit eager.

Stock pistons are the weak point.Stock rods and crank can take serious power before upgrading is needed.Plenty of 5-600bhp zeds in the states are just running forged pistons with oem crank and rods.

Thats the car mate,looked an off white/silver colour.Straight looking motor.

Its a black zed christine Dave and its gonna get ya!!

Do you have aftermarket alloy wheels that use a spigot to centralise the wheel on the hub?

Been to Cornwall for the week and seen one zed.K Plate N/a outside the Cat & fiddle pub in Bodmin.Anybodys here?

Hoes,what kind of Hoes?

Always got time for a chat with Jeff,Linda and Jamie.You couldnt wish to meet nicer people.
