Doh! Worth a try though :(

a little hijacking here :D smw1, who are you insured with then? (can you tell its coming to that time of year?) will definately be considering TC for mine, just for piece of mind, and at least you can switch it off easily if you feel like having fun

glad to hear it :D

Stuart, Is your Zed feeling better now?

damn missed it, sounded interesting

not even going to try being 00002 :D own a zed, but it's at sea :(

have a feeling a trip to the sales will be inevitable... but I'm sure it'll be worth it especially if I don't bring my credit card :eek:

I live in Hackney / Clapton next to the marshes, just off the A12. Basically the nearest place to the centre that we could afford to buy a nice flat. It's a little weird having 2 James Morgan's on here but I'm sure we'll manage! Hope to see you on Sunday @ Lakeside, I'll be there for a few hours with my unsuspecting wife. Of course I'll be Z less, but not for too much longer I hope. James

Hi Stu, i was browsing thru' your site tonight (very informative by the way), looked under the pictures tab, and the second row of pictures says James Morgan's Car Jan 2003. Now I found this just a little freaky since that's my name and I've just ordered my Zed! :eek: Thankfully the car's are different, otherwise I'll be getting really worried :D James

there will usually be a jumper (not the wooly type) you'll need to move on the drive to tell it to be a slave. If you try both hard drives on the same channel as is chances are the PC won't boot. If you can't find the jumper on the old hard drive, change the one on your CD(it should be labelled at the back) and have the old hard drive and CD share the second channel. And yes, I'm another member that works in IT :D

thanks everybody, I wasn't overly concerned as it can't be that big a deal with some many other imports running around. FT, what kind of money are we talking about if you don't mind me asking? Cheers, James

In the last couple of days I've had two people tell me about needing to do some work on the underside of a jap import after it arrives :( What are they on about? Are the imports not rust protected underneath or something? If this is the case, have any of you with imports done anything about this? Thanks in advance

Christ that's freaky, I was talking to the guy selling that skyline today at work!! Wild Turkey - Take some of the things suggested here out for a test drive (I assume your not in a great rush) and if they don't stand up to the Zed, get another! :D At least you know what to look for this time round Best of luck whatever you decide to do

absolute nutters!!! v.funny though :p

Sure am.... ... and boy am I excited. Jiz300's contact is a nice guy too. I'll keep you all up to date with how I get on.

Cheers everybody, and a special thanks to Jiz300 for his encouragement and patience I have now placed a deposit for a 90 TT, and it should hopefully be here by the end of Feb. Can't Wait!!!! :D Now to send the cheque off to Craig.....

Jiz300 You have mail!

My biggest concern about doing it myself is once it's over here I find it needs a samll fortune spent on it to get it through MOT and SVA :( The other option I suppose is to get someone to look after all of that for me. Ray / Jiz300 - any chance of some contact e-mail addresses etc please....

Hi, if at worst it is a head gasket problem as Chris suspects, how much do you guys think it will cost to sort out?? Chris, is this a UK car or import, Oops never mind, just read the orginal thread:)

Thanks guys I hope to get one in Feburary, that's why I'm considering importing one now. If it doesn't work out I'll just scour auto trader in Feb. Hopefully someone on here might be selling an manual around then... no offence ment of course, I just know it would have been looked after! James

Hello everybody, This is my first post on this forum so please be kind (to start with at least :) ) Just wondering if any of you have personally imported a zed and how did you find the process? Anything I should be aware of and how do I know what kind of condition it will be in mechanically - will the japanese grading system be enough? Thanks in advance James
