Solid Engine Mounts
:( sounds all too familiar, stepping off the gas suddenly when accelarating hard feels like the car is kangarooing! another thing on the list of things to do then. Can the mounts be done with the engine place? (attacking from underneath)

Solid Engine Mounts
When you say the engine feels horrible when pulling away, what do you mean by that, is it lots of vibrations? just wondering if mine are shot too :(

My Zeds Gone crazy (help)
you could have a huge vacuum leak I guess, that would cause the idle to hunt all over the place and lumpy running. How's your vacuum at idle? Might be worth checking for any hoses that may have come off.

What have you got waiting to be fitted?
S/S braided brake lines, replacement pass side window motor & seatbelt. Been catching up lately ;) that or I need to start buying more again!

Solid Engine Mounts
I was looking at Z1 prices for the urethane one and they were about the same as new stock ones from courtesey :confused:

Whats a lazy O2 sensor?
does sound right then, to make you feel happier mine's been nice and smooth since putting new O2 sensors in ;) You can get them cheaper from the states too
-
Whats a lazy O2 sensor?
when my O2 sensors were knackered I had a stumbling / misfire feeling when on the motorway in top, accelarating gently between 2k-3k rpms. If you then go WOT at 2000 rpm it'll pull fine as the ECU doesn't use O2 readings at WOT. Try that to see if that helps pinpointing it...

There is no Zed!!!
Rx7 for me too :D

Axle Tramp???
From what I've read and experienced, this is caused by the floating rear sub frame and squidgy subframe & diff bushings. I have Energy Suspension bushes all round now and it's almost completely gone (still get a very small amount when wet). The bushings are harsher than stock, and transfer more noise, but I love them :D. Only went with this route rather than spacers as mine were leaking anyway. If you've got stock bushes that are not leaking you can try the spacers - the guys in the states swear by them. You can also try solid bushes if you're brave. There are also collars available wich have the same affect as the spacers but keep the subframe in it's central location.

Warning to all Suven manual owners!
hmm, nice on Ryan :D now, to sort all this out.... having driven my car Mike Feeny has persuaded me to go to Santa Pod on the 23rd, anyone else up for it? I'll probably make a fool of myself and stall or something similar :rofl: but should be good for a laugh :dance: Anyway, we all know that manual's are better (couldn't help myself!)
