I think the shift in the zed is short enough already. Well in mine it is anyway...

Rears on a uk car are 245/45/16

My standard ones are good but after half a lap of a track they are not so good Ivan

Yeah I'm fine Steve mate. I still have the zed although it's not been on the road for about 3 years since I moved out into my own place. Not been to a meet for about the same amount of time. Need to see if the old girl will go through an MOT then I might be able to have her back on the road....

cruket steve it looks a bit different to when you had it mate. Was it auto when you had it?

Didn't think you could take passengers up the strip?

I reckon that's just you mate lol.

I used to work at a TVR dealer and I've driven many but even the stock Tuscan with it's 360bhp 4.0 straight 6 would beat my zed running 14psi. I remember getting a Tuscan S upto 185mph at brunters and I didn't even enter the straight that quickly!

What do you guys mean by doing the centre channel? Hiding some of the wires?

Car mad I've been here for years! Just because I don't post often or come on here much dont mean my love for my or all zed's is dead mate lol! So need to get her back on the road...

Ahhh steve! Glad to see you're looking to get back in a zed!

I had this happen on my zed. A loud rattling noise followed by a louder bang and a massive cloud of smoke. Whilst I was waiting recovery I walked down the road and found half a big end cap that was still warm. Found a nice hole in the side of the sump.

In the 7 years I ran mine it cost around 20k and it was still pretty well standard

courtesyparts.com are good as well.

The missus saw a grey 300 on a drive way in chello today. Ivan

Hi all. Saw a pearl white import today G reg parked up on Petersham road. Was it you?

Used to be 3 others but only 1 other now.

Mate I got my standard turbo's re-conned with a 360 degree bearing for 400 each at midland turbo's. They were all right for the 2 years before I took her off the road. Ivan

Checked all the joints mate. They all seem A OK. Fancy having a quick look?

Dude no offence if you have them but I think the EL dials are vile. Stock is fine but I haven't seen a white set I like. It had been playing up for over a year before I decided to get round to it. If you gave the top cover of the instruments a whack sometimes it came back on or if you pushed the wiring in at the back it worked. I have tried a substitute cluster and that works fine. I can build it back up no probs. Needle pin is deffo still in the circuit board part. Was very careful not to break it upon removal. Ivan

Groover you are a top lad. I already have the board stripped out and the needle off already. Would you be willing to have a looksee for me?

Yeah I have a problem with the circuit board on my UK speedo. All I need is another circuit board but I guess I'll have to buy a set and change it over. Would you be able to change it over Groover? Ivan

If you were driving into the sun you'd be blinded! Ivan

6 years and 5 months. Ivan

Hi everyone. Does anyone know is the Jap speedo circuit board and the UK speedo circuit board are the same? Also how much would I be looking at paying for a Jap spec speedo cluster? Ivan
