Rolling Road Day
Ah, so after yesterdays visit you're going to be brave and put yours on the rollers then. I won't commit yet but if I get a few more tweaks sorted and get the boost controller stabilised then I might just do it again. :D

Quick track day question...
This was something I've been wondering about too. I'm already cacking it and there's still a week to go. So far I have, Changed plugs, engine oil, g'box oil, diff oil New g'box mount Rear subframe bush collars New boost pipes Koyo rad and new hoses 2 new tyres for the rear (on 17s) I was thinking about changing the front pads for something a little better but I was wondering whether I'm just throwing money away as chances are they'll be cooked anyway. Will it make much difference that I'll be running with 19s on the front and 17s on the back?

Zed TT Fuel economy ?
It obviously depends on your style of driving but on average I would suggest that you will be spending approx £60 to cover the same distance. Once you start tuning it, it will get worse. No problem using it as an everyday runabout though, my TT is running somewhere around 370ish bhp and the economy isn't much different to when it was 300bhp.

Can you drift your zed well
I know exactly what you mean, I did it once leaving a meet, got it big old sidways and held it, really chuffed with myself (hadn't had the car long) and she went mental at me just because she shat herself. :rofl: I'm allowed to go fast in a straight line when she's in the car, just not sideways.

The Z center
Luke is a top bloke and has always gone out of his way to help me out. Never had any problems with anything from him but then I do always phone him and have chat about the product I'm after. Hang on in there, he won't let you down. :cool:

greddy profec b spec II install
I used this guide CLICK HERE and found it easy to follow. It can be done in a couple of hours depending on where you fit the unit. I spent between 4 and 5 hours doing mine but that included going out and getting the extra pipe and T pieces. Don't forget to unplug the stock solenoids like I did as you get about 14psi no matter what :smash:

digital clock
Must learn to type faster. :rolleyes:

digital clock
There are actually 4 screws that hold the surround on. 2 at the top either side of the vents under the clips and 2 under the cover strip under the vents. After that, just give it a tug and it will come out. As for fixing the clock, no idea, I changed mine for a boost controller. :)

Auto vs manual turbos
I have auto turbos on my manual and am running 15psi (when on high boost) with no problems at all. I've got no technical info for you though unfortunately but I'm sure a tech head will be along at some point.

Top service
I'd just like to "big up" Luke at Zcenter for all his help today. I found out this morning that my radiator had died and so the hunt started for a new one. I needed one for the weekend as the car is going on the rollers so time was of the essence. Having tried a few places to get a second hand one (no joy) I started looking for a new one and headed for Zcenter. Gave Luke a call and explained my situation and he told me that he had sold out of Koyo rads and wasn't expecting any for a couple of weeks. He then had a thought and asked me to give him a ring back in a bit, he had managed to get one back from one of his local customers so that I could get my car back on the road. He has sent it out next day delivery with some new silicone hoses all for £360. Cheers Luke, top man.

ecu question
Code 34 is det sensor or sensor harness, bypass it with a resistor just to check it out. Do a search for the bypass it's been put up loads of times. You never know, it could just be a loose connection.
