Happy days mate!! Just need mine sorted which hopefully won't long and it'll be running sweet. Time for a meet?

Thanks for comments guys. As per previous posts by others I can confirm the welcome from the Zedworld team is awesome, even the wife wasn't bored or started with the 'how long question' in the waiting room while the car was handed over and a list of jobs made!

I'll be there if you get the car done ;)

Yup, good spot :duffer:

Off to Jeffs tomorrow to get the car running properly, I keep getting random spates of mis-fires. I have played with the engine for ages and have learned lessons in past that it's worth taking to a pro when it gets to that stage, I could spend another month trying to fix it but why!!! So I pulled her out of the garage fitted the new bumper which has had a crap blow over with a Halfords tin of paint but not spending anymore money til it's running right. Decided against the vented nose panel as the fuse box and PTU will live there. During a spate of not mis-firing took her down the dual carriage way and flew down there at 80mph, when accerlerating the wastegate noise sounds awesome on gear changes.

Might be interested in these, so potential dibs pending price and what Jeff says as car going in Saturday

Be interested to know what the fault is when you find it as I have the same on mine.

Yup, let me know how easy it is as I haven't taken mine out yet :rofl:

The turbo, the 2nd one is for the wastegate.

Another date would suit me as mine should be back from Jeff then.

Yes just join the two but it does bring on the hicas light I'm afraid.

£400 with a blown engine!

:hyper::hyper::hyper: about time!

Tatsu only meet at Bristol and SW-CC don't seem to meet at all now. Anyone else got any ideas or are we not going to acheive a meet at all this year?!!

My colour has gone back to green 'subscribed member' from purple 'REO' ??

Thanks :duffer: I think mine is not so healthy so have picked up a replacement for a bargain price! Anyone near Durham?

Anyone know the weight of a manual gearbox?

Or you can be brave and attempt it yourself! Not that I'd rush to do the wiring again, I cheated and got a loom from a manual in the end. Best £30 I ever spent.

Me to but only when Jeff has made sure things are set up correct, I can't be playing with conzult anymore- time for the pro! Just sorting out a bigger rad and the ebc as the external wategate is running without one at the moment with a 11psi spring. Mind you just realise the vacuum line on the wastegate is plumbed in wrong :slap: so I don't think I'm even getting 11psi at the moment.

I would like 500+ but I'll see how it goes.

All done today by Paypal.

It's been a long time since I've done an update on the project, things have been a little slow due to lack of time but there has been progress. Apart from trying to source a slightly larger radiator as I'm not completely happy with the running temperature things are pretty much done. There are few little running issues that need addressing but I can't do anymore and have booked it in with Jeff. It is either a software problem or something simple that a conzult session will cure. Some pics but the engine bay needs a good clean as it's covered in filler dust! The prep on the bumper is going well, until the car is running 100% I am only going to colour match and paint it using aerosol paint. I'll get a full respray done at a later date. The brakes are all done on the front as well, all I have left to do is fit the rear uprated discs and pads. Then some rear adjustable cambers arms and camber adjustmant kit for the front.

Not tomorrow but I will be in 2 weeks.

Well it just gets better, had the finacial adviser around this afternoon to discuss renting ours and getting a buy to let mortgage on ours and a new mortgage for this house. After bouncing figures around we can juggle enough money around to buy the new house. So I call at 3 today to make an offer--- to be told he accepted an offer this morning which we believe was lower than ours!!! :headvswal:headvswal
