happy birthday ;)

there is a guide somewhere. one which i used floating about somewhere. real easy job its just fiddly and i made sure i went over them 3 times just to be 100% sure everything was in the right place etc.

pmsl hah mine did too...thought my fuel gauge was broken. hopefully your injectors are sealed ok, what if they are leaking like a gooden :( Im sure you replaced all the bottom seals?

Man i know the feeling.... im struggling a bit too. although its looking pretty positive at the mo, only getting a bit of hesitation and running rich which is most def the o2 sensors which are reading lazy. You getting any kinda smoke at all? black? anyways cas test next would be a good idea. But wait to see what mark suggests.

would it be worth doing a cas test you recon topless? his car wont rev past 2500rpm so wouldnt that point to maf?

if its not passing 2500rpm then the maf has packed up mate. thats more than likely your problem. firstly id check connections clean them and clean the maf sensor but be very careful and use a contact cleaner.

goes bang, sounds about right for a zed :D

Im not an expert but sounds to me that if the gauge is not passing 0 then the turbos are not working or you have an intercooler pipe off.... they should still boost to what the actuators are set at even if they boost controller is plumped in?

its all a load of w4nk if you ask me.

and it was boosting positive b4 fitting the controler?

Your not hitting postive boost at all?

did you shine the strobe on the markings and what did they read?

haha just realised without the 7 it would say Hate duf haha.

will how did you set the timing if ya didnt use the ptu loop?

Just been out with wozzer running good apart from the hesitation prob but will see on monday with jd chip ;)

yeah not so bad till 2010 at least.

does it...? yeah maybe i should just sell up then :(

Think i will to check my heart rate coz at this rate i dont think its gunna beat for much longer :( haha

Well the way i have planned it would be to rub down all the crap etc then paint the middle section black not worrying about over spray then once dried mask out the strip then paint the rest silver, dry, then laquar :D at least thats how i think it should be done and i wont be doing it anyway. a proper bodyshop will ;) ive already asked him about 3 times :D wasnt interested haha.

Brakes are better than standard smart ass ;) im gunna put a brick behind the throttle ;)

330mm 13" as far as i know! need some big ass calipers now :D

just a couple of pics. nice view of my brakes and engine bay. front bumper is a mess and ive photoshopped a black centre strip which is how il be painting it soon enough. got a few extra engine bay enhancements on thier way too. apart from my running issues im quite happy with the look so far. regarding the rear offset im looking into bigger spacers and a slightly thinner profile tyre maybe stretched to sit right under the arch which will have to be rolled how i like it. but its not so bad at the mo anyhow. Also looking into 25mm hubcentric spacers for the front Thought by posting a couple pics it would bring my moral back up seen as im having a few downfalls with the engine which im sure are only minor but what the hell.

Ok thanks mate. seems to deisapear once warm though which i just noticed today :confused:

Yes mate join the 330 crew ;) i just need some big ass calipers now :D

those wheels look 10 times better. Brakes will improve the looks and performance cant wait to see them on. just one thing tho.....the front left wing is sticking out a bit, did youi experience some dodgy jacking in the past???? mine did and i had to straighten up the seal push it in and re seal the bottom.
