Nice one matey thats a good'un :hyper:

Bwahahahaaaaa! Sounds like the wheel police will be making a visit soon :rofl:

LOL :nelson: Theres a horrible hand shaped print on the bottom of my fuel tank, I should take a photo while its up :D

No thanks Hugh :D lol Got a pile of bricks in the garden cheers lads great plan :bow:

Spent a few hours this evening lifting my zed onto axle stands and removing the alloys. And what a faff it is lifting the car up, I couldn't use my decent trolley jack as it shifts the car as the jack raises - not what you want when stands are partly supporting it. In the end I used a small vertical one and the standard scissor jack as both lift the car straight up. It must be safe I guess but I'm paranoid about leaning on the car etc lol. Thanks to Ryan for the reassurance on the phone hehe :cool: Having only used them before as a back up for a jack I was surprised at how... shite the system is really. It looks so precarious. On Saturday I will be removing the exhaust and decat pipe, this seems scary as fook being under the supported car with no wheels on! Making things harder the garage it is in is pretty small - about a foot down one side 8/9inches down the other. I struggled to get the pass side front wheel out of the wheel arch :rofl: Please resist the temptation to retell stories of cars falling on peoples heads etc ;) Cheers Pete

Surely thats a made up word! :p

General concensus is that condition/mileage etc is far more important than transmission type. Find a good zed then see whether its a manual or auto if you see what I mean :D Performance wise, they are very close. Manuals said to be quicker to 60, autos quicker to 100 and 1/4 mile. I'd imagine Mr Average driver could drive a manual around a track/twisty roads quicker. Really depends on how you want to drive it, and where you drive it. Reliabilitywise, if an autobox breaks it tends to be a rebuild job, if a manual box breaks it tend to be the clutch which isnt as expensive as an autobox rebuild. Having said that both units are strong and will handle a fair amount of power on top of stock. If you buy a Jap Import auto - make sure it has an upgraded oil cooler as the standard set-up isn't good enough and they overheat in the UK. Oh and theres hundreds if not thousands of threads/arguments on this topic so do a search ;) Hope that helps Pete
