Faulty tailgate sensor/switch ?
i found that it was the little plunger on the door frame that turns the light out when u shut it wasnt being pushed in enough, i just took off the rubber cover and packed some crap init to pack it out, think i used some small pieces of card about 5mm square, trying pulling the door shut hard when your driving to see if it cures the clicking, if it does then this fix will work

Flintstones zed
just out of interest are these uk or j spec zeds, mine went for mot last month and sailed thru, i couldnt beleive the conditoin of the under side it was like new, mines a j spec which i thought had less underside protection than uks, mines been in the uk since 90. maybe its had some after treatment but thumbs up to the japs for a top quality car. mot bloke was well impress for a 13 year old car.

6 Zeds spotted!
well i set off rather bleary eyed cos i was partying all night saturday, came off the a38 took a wrong turn ended up completely lost and didnt take me map cos i thought i would remember were i was going, so im driving round on empty looking for a gas station and in all these little villages there shut, so i eventually find one, amazing how far u can go on empty btw. and by this time id given up hope of finding it so went to macdonalds for some dinner, i did spot a dark grey skyline and some nice kitted honda jobbie on the drive back, its the most ive done in the zed about 50 odd miles all together and it never missed a beat, even in this soaring heat it ran fine, but dont u just hate that feeling of being in the middle of nowhere completely lost with no gas in the tank. So today ive learned a lot fill up when u pass that petrol station Take a map dont stay out all night drinking

Engine noise
well lmfao, did a bit of tinkering today, and i was leaning on the fan shrowd and the noise stopped, it really did sound like a metalic rattle tho, i turned a screw in the fan shrowd fastening along top slam panel half a turn and its cured that horrible rattle, sounded really expensive to fix too. the simplest of things are often over looked i guess
