  1. No worries, looks nice though :D How does she sound? James
  2. ohh, and don't know about the A/C, don't have it on much. I'll try it out later.
  3. cheers guys, looks like I'll be cleaning a lot of sensors tomorrow :) PS Idle is smooth at 750.. if I try to upset her by blipping the throtle hard at stand still it will go 3k down to 50:eek: (or stall) then back to 1000, drop to 900, then drop to 750. James
  4. Stu, What kind of design did you go for in the end? And do you still have your old centre section going spare? If so, how much do you want for it?
  5. Whenever I come to a halt quickly, usually traffic lights, or slow down quickly for a turing my Zed tends to stall if I don't dip the clutch at the last minute. It will also stall blipping the throtle to over 3k and letting off. the revs just keep dropping :( Now I've gone through the archive's and figured that it's the TPS. Soaked it in WD40 yesterday and it sorted the problem temporarily until it dried. Got some solvent cleaner today and attacked it with a toothbrush (did the CAS too :D ) but although it's made it better it's still happening. Opinions please? Did I do a sh*t job of cleaning it - it's not green anymore, or do I need to whack some copper grease or something on there? James :confused:
  6. LOL, so it's not just me who scares innocent by-standers with their BOV's :D :D
  7. show us the pictures :D
  8. same here, but only get it under load at low revs.... :confused:
  9. if you think this part is bad, try having it in your garage / on driveway but not being able to legally drive it for the best part of 2 weeks :D
  10. Up to you mate, but as it's only a few miles from you, makes sense :D
  11. I took the paper work to my local office to save a day, but I think it was 3 working days, and the tax disc arrived in the post on the 4th day. My time line when the car arrived was Monday - car arrived at docks, picked it up in the afternoon and drove it home (ran out of petrol as soon as I left the docks:eek: ) Tuesday - Mot'd Thursday - went to DVLA but didn't have customs form Friday - Customs and exise form arrived, took paperwork to DVLA Wednesday - tax disc arrived, Halfords wouldn't give me number plates Thursday - had number plates made somewhere else Since, spent a lot of money on fuel and maintenance, but worth every penny :D
  12. It's quite easy if you have all the paper work! this has all the steps in it DVLA but to summarise you'll need Bill of Lading Customs form C&E386 (proves you've paid your customs & VAT fees) Japanese de-registration document MOT & Insurance (based on chassis no.) £25 registration + 6/12 months TAX then go to DVLA Local Office (Sidcup is much easier than Wimbledon) fill in the form V55/5 , wait a few days and they send you tax disc and certificate with reg numer so you can have a number plate made up. All I had to do to mine to get past the MOT was add the rear fog-light. HTH James PM me if you want a hand
  13. did you get your gearbox mount checked when you did the prop? these tend to sag with time..
  14. does that appy to front ones too? :D :D
  15. Any chance you can power up the speedo cover so we can see how the "Dials " logo looks??
  16. Nice work Stuart. Quick question, how bright did you have your UK cluster set to as you can hardly see them? You can hardly see the needles too. Or is this because the indiglo ones are that much brighter the camera doesn't pick them up? Thanks again for taking the time to do this James
  17. Nice :D hopefully after the trip to ZedWorld it'll be like that all the time :)
  18. What they mean is the UK spec doesn't have them, only imports
  19. no vibrations, but when braking hard from above 80 the front would squirm all over the place - very scary. Much better pedal feel too.
  20. 23, 2yrs NC, v. bad post code, garaged, cat 1, mods declared on TT import - best was £2100 TPF&T. :eek: Went with them, previous insurance co screwed up and gave me 5 yrs NCB, so now its £1700 fully comp :D :D

    Deffo BLUE (not that I'm biased) :D
  22. WOW!! :eek: Look forward to seeing this thing, and all in such a short time frame - good thing you've got the beemer :) Oh yeah, had my tension rod bushes done today too - what a difference, and the brakes seem to work now!
