I have given up for today, will try again another day.

Its a big Airmaster Tiger that I have borrowed from a friend, it should have enough power.

How long should it take to get pressure into the system to perform a boost leak test? I have just had my first attempt and failed miserably, I have got boost tester with gauge from Z1, when I connected it up to the air compressor and started to fill the system the pressure gauge did not move past zero. I could not hear any hissing of air leaking, did'nt know if I have got a huge leak and the air is coming straight out or if I am not giving it enough time to build the pressure up.

Very impressed, are you keeping it all red or is it going to be the same as your sig pic?

Very impressed, excellent job.

I have also always had excellent service from Z1, I have previously placed an order in the evening, gone to bed woke up the next day and checked the order tracking and it was already in the UK. The Fed Ex bill a couple of days later is a bit of a pain.

Congratulations

Mine had starting issues when I first got it, I changed the PTU and that fixed my problems. I also have hesitation at junctions sometimes and it annoys me aswell, hopefully someone will be along with an idea soon.

I did a cambelt change and service myself a few months ago, think it cost about £250 - £300 for the kit. Not sure about the timescales for a cambelt change, but I think after 4 years you should get it done just to be safe.

My interior trim makes quite a bit of noise, but I just turn the stereo up when it gets annoying.

Wish I had garage like that, great idea with the drive thru.

Not sure that I like it that much, some angles it looks ok.

My thoughts are with you and your daughter.

Zed did well keeping up with the Lambo, it was'nt pulling that far away.

There is a weight inside the tailgate that you can remove, it helped mine, just remove the interior trim and you will see it a black rectangular metal block, just two bolts to undo and I had no problems after it was removed, except it srpings up quite a bit faster so be careful.

Welcome

I have got the same problem with mine, I have just ordered some new braided fuel lines to see if that will sort it out.

Welcome.

I have looked at them as well, very nice looking.

I had problems with smoke a few months ago and put new PCV valves and pipes in which cured it for a while, so I was thinking it might be the turbo seals.

I have just been out for a drive in the zed and wish I hadn't bothered. First after it had warmed up I got to a set of traffic lights and noticed white smoke whilst it was idleing, which disappeared when I pulled off. Parked up and went into some shops drove off back towards home and as I got to a another set of traffic lights it just died as I put the clutch in, started first turn of the key though, carried on driving still noticed a bit of smoke whilst idleing. Then as I got home it was hard to put it into first gear and reverse. Its not been my most enjoyable drive, it had been running ok for the last few months.

I've not had any problems with Tiscali either.

I've just been looking at elimating mine, my Hicas light came on this morning, it played up about a year ago and has been fine since, so I think removing the Hicas might be the quickest option.

I did originally try the bungs a while ago, but its a couple of mm out all the way along that edge, not just at the front of the bonnet, but at the hinge point aswell, I was wondering if there is any adjustment in the hinge?

How do you adjust the bonnet alignment, mine sits a couple of mm higher than the wing on the passanger side, its something that has bugged me for a while just not got round to sorting it out, its raining at the moment so can't go and have a look.
