Failed MOT due to suggested fog light mod
Bummer! It never gave me any problems getting through an MOT here. Maybe less fussy up north! :( All of the cabling and relay are tucked away behind the rear centre pannel accessed through the boot. Should be easy to ID the feed and stick an external fog on. I thought the brake light conversion is much neater though Hope you get it sorted soon ...and the O2 sensor! David

Intranets
I'm a big fan of microsoft active server pages (ASP). Use them a lot in our intranet with many pages built up from content in access (or sometimes oracle) databases. Makes it very easy to update the content and keep the site fresh. I've written pages that query our call management system that have saved call centre supervisors hours of data compilation. Have to agree with Bigbscan though - you've got to have a definate idea of what people want David

Air Con Compressor Pulley Wobble
Ian, Sounds a bit familiar I'm afraid. If you do a search on my user name you'll find a few posts about aircon. The compressor was broken when I got the car so I had a second hand unit fitted. The guy who fitted it commented on the wobble and asked if the donor car had been in a crash but it seemed to work fine. The system was gassed up by ACS (I think - label inside engine bay if its still there) using the r12 drop in replacement gas. They gave it a clean bill of health and all was well for a while. After a while I started getting a bit of a squeal but didn't have time to look into it so I removed the fuse (rather than cutting the belt). Last summer I went back to ACS. System was confirmed leak free again but was completely empty. Once again, after the re-gassing all was well. I wonder if the system is loosing gas or something. It certainly doesn't seem to last long. I wonder if the system has the correct amount of oil/lubricant in there since the compressor was fitted. David

Access to alternator connections
:( Sorry to hear about your problems! I'm very familiar with the clicky flashy business at start up. My first red zed did that to me once - not great. I got away with just a new battery that time. Not likely to help you in this case but I haven't forgotten the datascan stuff. Its sitting next to me in a jiffy bag and will be on its way down to you in the post tonight. David

performance in a zed isnbt good
If you're really pushed I've still got my Nissan datascan software and cable. I work in Peterlee. I could bring that in one day and we could maybe meet at a lunch time to check for ECU error codes. I've only ever had NAs so not sure how much use I'd be looking for boost leaks on a TT though! David

Club Logo poll
I like the Z. It looks good on the bonnet badge, it looks good on a keyring and it makes a good logo. David

September Meet
Never done a run like this. Never really run before my training for this. I'm more of a cyclist. Training suffered because of a hip injury but last week did 11 miles in 1:45. Quite pleased with that but I suspect 2.5 hrs for me on the day. I'll keep an eye out for your number! :D David

NZR - Networking PC's
Agree with the above. I have my desktop pc cabled to the wireless router and an old laptop for anywhere else around the flat ...or even browsing the forum while outside with the laptop connected to the zed! David
