Have been looking at getting leather for my beloved z, i see that you can get the leather kit but am a bit confused, do you buy it in loads a bits then get some one to sew it up and fit it, do you take full car or do you remove seats and what sort of cost is involved ?? any one done it recently??

Not sure maybe a kettle some bone china and an electric blanket to go with the fan heater/blower, and if its auto why not get one of those big slippers that you put both feet in he he he he :D :D

Burf, which dimension are you posting from?? lol no m8 seriously i really can not wait till your next project, thanks 4 the laugh im still sore :D :D :D

Cheers for that cerb, mine has about the same level of mods as your z by the sound of it, so you never know till you try eh, tvr reckon 185 plus for the cerb ? thats some speed mind eh, did you ever go flat out in yours ???

We were all wrong, you see where has he gone?? hes crashed hasnt he, it was v powerful after all, and now you can all hang your heads in shame for laughing, maybe he switched it on at 140 and went off into another dimension some where?? who knows where,?? anyone see a zed go rocketing past them, you will know if it was him as it would have sounded like a milk float with after burneres on lol

burf is this all a joke??, ROFLMAO How would a fan heater strapped to your airbox make you crash?? Are you expecting such a sudden surge of boost that your eyes fail to focus and your ears pop sending you carrering out of control???, to avoid this maybe you should find a disused airfield or something, maybe even see if norriss mcwerta is knocking about to witness it;)

Aww hell man, :mad: :mad: :( , listen if its got to go try to get it sorted first, you will command higher price that way and wont seem down on your luck (hence not appearing desperate to sell=higher price, easier to bargain ;) ) if as you say you are still upbeat after all this then with that outlook im sure youre life will be full of birds money villas etc in no time, now is mint time to sell t tops too, so sell now, sort job/ life out , then aim to buy new z in winter, who knows you might even get your old one back. Best of luck m8

I will do my best, it will b good to see it floored, prob be up a straight section of road again too. Im taking him to leeds to pick it up on wed pm, but i will take him in my peugeot diesel not the zed, so wont know till poss friday. Heres something tho, was reading an old what car which says after 100 mph its no longer power to weight, its then all about power to aero dynamics??? anyone know the co efficient of both ??, his is 360 bhp, mine was dynod at 289 rwhp, since then it has had a jwt chip in stalled, so will i be near that fig at flywheel too? how much power do you loose thru the drivetrain?

Im gonna have to have a go tho arentt i, nothings won as yet so it may as well be the 1st eh

im sorry but nearly fell off my seat when i read this:D :D

Silicone ??!! anyone could have some of those if they wanted them, cost about 3 grand i think :D :D

Could it not be the disc cover??

You may remember a little while back i raced my work mate in his tvr griffiths 500, well he picks his cerbera up on wed, its the 4.2. 0-100 in 9.9 secs, thats 10 mph per sec up to a hundred:confused: :confused: , he is grinning and laughing now saying i have no chance, and im wondering weather to bother if its going to be a slaughtered z, as i just know he wont ever shut up about it, well how bad will it be do you reckon????? Should i bother?/

A stitch in time saves nine;)

Thoroughly enjoyed this story, i bet you saved a small fortune doing all that work yourselves, i bet the fuel saving from having it off the road 4 days nearly paid for it too lol, hurry up and do the next episode now please;)

Ahh i see, thanks for that guys.:D

what does this pvc valve do?? whats its purpose??

quoted by gio: AndyP - ahh - the essential difference between a civilised nation and the yanks hehehehe At last ive found common ground with gio lol, i agree entirely.

I think if any of you "anti war" had lived in iraq under saddam, you would have a very different view, not that these people were allowed to have a view, to have one and speak out about it would have had you tortured if you were lucky, or would it be death that were more lucky, and as for ; " When people realise that their government is not working in the interest of their people there will be an uprising of some form or another as has happened in most developed countries." are you for real???, how long should we have waited and done nothing till this didnt happen, and when saddam did decide to go or die, there was a carbon copy there in the form of his son that would have took over where daddy left off, i hate the thought that people had to suffer / die for this, but if you were to do a body count of how many suffered / died for no good reason because of saddams utter greed and cruelty so far, add to that the people who would have been tortured/raped/killed, in the future had we sat and done nothing the difference will be unquestionably huge. Take all the propoganda and lies away and you are still left with a much better prospect, be it oil, popularity, whatever saddams regime is gone and good riddance. Oh by the way this is just my view and opinion that i /we are privelidged to be able to voice, Never forget it

Wow so it wasnt silly eh ?, its done 300,000 miles too on the same engine and turbo and still goes like a rocket(well a diesel rocket) lol

Hey petey i know guide post well, my cars black but ive only been on spine road a couple of times since i got it, mam lives in blyth, had it bout a month, wonder if it was me??? was it going fast????????????????????

Just got a new car, its a k plate pug 405 diesel turbo, 6 mths test, all electrics, its mint, and i only paid 200 squids for it. Fueled it up to three quarters tank,done 120 miles and guage is still over half ffs!, but a strange thought came over me, should you turn the motor straight off after youve horsed it, i know its diesel but to be fair you have to horse it more so than the z just to make adequate progress, and it is a turbo??? am i being silly??. Oh by the way its a second car, the zeds on the drive all polished up being kept nice, dont worry:p :p

ROFLMAO :D :D

Do as andy says first, if you have lost a wheel weight that would cause it, pointless worrying till youve done this hth;)

Wherabouts are you??, im in whitley, you might be surprised to learn that theres a few about, whats yours?? tt na ???
