When I was looking at brakes, I came to the conclusion that just putting big brakes on the front will upset the braking of the car. I then went and bought the Stoptech big brake kit, as its designed to work with the existing abs to give the balance braking the manufacturer setup. Not tried the brakes yet, so dont know how good they perform. Barry

Great news Iain. Barry

Mark, thanks for taking the pictures. I will pm you my email address, need some good pictures to send into the insurance company for the agreed value. Thanks for all the kind words and especially to Phil whos done all the hard work, I will just sit here and take all the glory now :) Barry

Iain, had it removed last year, still think that spoiler was best looking spoiler for the zed but for me obscured my rear view in the mirror, so had it removed and since sold it. Heres some pics of when it was fitted if it helps. Barry

Yes Iain, few little changes along the way. Not using the AFC now, but AEM. Barry

Join the que, as Scoops' Toyota is now on the ramp. Barry

Cheers guys, Alex, the car was off the road most of last year while the bodywork done. Once completed its started to smoke, so got put away for the rest of the year. So the winter project was to have a full rebuild, starting with JWT530bb, 615inj, AEM ECU, and lots of bling bits, pretty much everything apart from the block is new, or upgraded. Spec list is in my rides section Barry

Just received a phone call from Phil at Blackmoor Service Station , it was all silent, then I heard an engine start up. Woohoo its running. Still a few things to finish off, interior has to go in. Then get the alignment done, as part of the project had all the bushes done. Then run her in and then get it booked in on the Dyno for mapping on the AEM which should be here tomorrow (thanks Smithy) and then start driving her again. One happy chappy :) Will post some pics hopefully next week Barry

Looking good Pete, especially being black, doesnt stand out too much. Barry

Happy Birthday Chris. Barry

Happy birthday John. Cant wait to see, well hear the V8. Barry

Which ones? Ive had stuff from everyone Silicon and various hose's from Smithy Original pipes etc from MJP Other pipes from Concept Performance And steel braided pipe and Samco from Demon Tweeks Hope that helps. Barry

Oh fame at last :) well, for my engine. Yes the polished throttle cover was from Smithy, superb piece of bling. Barry

Was at last years, but unfortunately I was in the Scenic as the Zed was in the bodyshop. If im not working, will be there. Barry

As above, Phil at Blackmoor Service Station , although I think he has next week off. Barry

I should have the everything needed for this setup for sale in the next couple of weeks, thats New Apexi SAFC 2 New Apexi Filters 2 s/hand MAFs 2 elbows and silicone and wiring for the SAFC to the Mafs Not sure how much yet, will know in a couple of weeks. Barry

Looking good Dewi. Barry

Me mapping the car! lol, thanks Mike. Barry

Thanks Paul, been looking at your site. Is AEM the best one to go for? Can you pm me a price with any additional bits that I may need. Thanks Barry

Was going to use twin MAF setup, with Apexi SAFC and custom chip by JD. Are there any pro's or con's to using a stand alone ECU, like the AEM one? How does it meter the air? do you still use a MAF? Are there any displays on the dash, for boost, traction control or is it all configured by laptop. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks Barry

Happy birthday Pete, hope your not going to spend your birthday under the Zafira like you did yesterday lol. Barry

Im about to go with Livingstones Warman (think there listed on zclub site). Agreed value on mine of 20k, all mods declared (500hp) about 750 pounds. If you ask for Susan Irving, she's been real helpful. Their number 01935 706258. Barry

Oh, few other things being replaced I forgot to mention aswel as the oil and filter. Think its only the block which is being kept lol. Full list in the rides section Barry

Just having an oil and filter change! :tongue: Anyway, thought Toyota's were so reliable, yours shouldnt need to be in a garage. Barry
