Just thought i'd let you guys and girls no, Ive just taken out breakdown cover with the AA and thought it was quite a good deal. £18.29 a month, and thats for Roadside, Relay, Homestart and Stay mobile, the best bit though is that they will repair the car with new parts up to £500, 5 times a year, all you have to do is pay the first £25 of each claim and you only need to pay 1 month when you take out the cover. It's handy, as my starter is on it's way out, they can pay for the new one and for it to be fitted. Might be worth a shot.

I think iv'e just joined

Meet you all at magor at 6:45

I aint knocking them at all, still waiting on a quote off Zed world

Its a light greyish smoke with a hint of blue, the black dust on the rear bumper is not excesive but it's their.

Smokey passenger exhaust and a bit of carbon deposits on the rear bumper.

Z-TECH is 168 miles from where I live and Zedworld is 260 odd miles away. Zedworld has done the previouse mods on the car before I bought it and done an ecu remap at 14 psi on stock turbo's, I emailed them and they said I was well safe at that boost, I then phoned Z-tech and they told me that it was to much boost and would probably need reconditioned turbo's, using 360 bearings, had the quote, between £1800 and £2000, i'm waiting for a reply from Zedworld as I want a quote from them too. Hopefully the dealer is going to contribute to the repair work that needs to be carried out ( I hope ), I dont think I would trust any mechanics around by me.:(

I will meet you guys there to, no later than 6:30. Will we be meeting up with the rest at magor services?

Happy birthday matey

Been in touch with zedworld who done all the mods, they said that the previouse owner bought a secondhand nearside turbo, but he had sold it before they were to fit it, looks like it is the rear turbo seal after all, I will be in touch with the dealer (Ebony a Ivory)today to see if they will sort the problem under the warranty.

I will have them off you mate, how do I pay?

Yes, it's just above the bonnet release.

I probably start cycling, especially in this weather.

Does any one no what this is hidden away under my dash? Am I right in thinking this is the diagnostic connector?

I do give it a bit more of a run on the weekends, may have to start cycling lol, it's hard though, especially in this weather, the roof's been off for the last 4 days.

Is it better to use your Zed every day or now and again, I only live a mile away from work, will driving short journeys do more harm than good? I dont push her over 2500 revs, would it be worth getting a cheap runaround? what do you all suggest? The car is too nice not to drive everyday.:D

Cheers for that, will it be ok to drive so long as I dont put my foot down?

Sorry to sound stupid but what does pcvs stand for?

Has anyone got any ideas.

Would it smoke whilst on the move as well as idling if the seals had gone? On hard acceleration there is no smoke and just cruising their is no smoke, now and again on idle I can notice a little smoke, would it have anything to do with putting normal unleaded in it with an octain booster additive?

Yeah, any good?

Hi mate, like everyone says, be careful when buying a uk spec 300 as I used to own one, when I bought it it looked fine, as the months went by, bubbling started around the rear arches, had the rear spoiler removed because the paint was cracking and had to have a plate the width of the boot welded in as it had rotten all the way through. I now own a jap spec tt and the differance in condition is remarkable, insurance is not bad on the import either, i'm also 23, all modifications declared, £600 a year fully comp with Sky insurance, give it a shot.

Just thicker greyish smoke, not blue or black.

Just been on the US Ebay site and come accross TLF performance parts, they are selling injectors on their between stock and 800cc injectors, they are selling 6 x 800cc for $430, 6 x 740cc for $386.99, 6 x 600cc $380.99 and the 550cc at $380.99 all brand new direct replacements. What do you guys think.

Once ive done a couple of short stop start journeys, the passenger side exhaust seems to smoke a little more than the other one, it's fine when cold, but when warm she tends to smoke, it diddnt smoke at all when I picked it up and that was a 350 mile trip. it's not blue smoke just seems a bit thicker than the other one, slight smell of oil too, am I just paranoid that something major is going to go wrong with it, if not, still got 3 months warranty with it.
