Bringing my old Zed back to Life!
Hello My UK auto TT has been sleeping in my garage since January after breaking down one too many times! Next weekend I am going to fire her up, however this is the problem. last time I drove her after breaking down the engine kept cutting out, at the time I thought it was either a failed PTU or Wet MAF (Apexi!) so replaced the PTU with a working one, and disconnected the MAF, but the engine cuts out. When she dies, you can start her up again no problem then 30 seconds later, it sounds like she is only running a a few cylinders then dies, there is no knocking, ect! I have no consult or data scan about 150 miles from Zed World and the car is not drivable, any ideas?

Cutting out even when MAF is disconected
No Conzult or datascan, and I am miles away from Zed World! Its frustrating as I treated the bitch to some nice new sills, and she is still not happy! Damn Zed!

Cutting out even when MAF is disconected
Hi All, have not been on here for a little while as I have got so fed up with the Zed it has been parked in the gararge for the last few months. Current problem it that I keeped getting a wet MAF and engine cut out; however the problem I have is that when I disconnect to MAF it still cuts out, now I thought that with a disconnected MAF I simply would not be able to rev past 2500rpm. When the car cuts out, it is not a striaght cut out it runs on a few cylinders for about 10 secs and even if you press on the gas it dies! Now I have to say I am getting to the point where the mrs wont get in the car because it breaks down all the time!

In addition the touque even in the power bands is nothing to the Zed, if I remember the Civic Type R is about 150 torques which is nothing, so wet and dry you can get the power down. I have a Auto, and running fat arse toyos 265's on the back, and if I hit full boost in first or second I go no where, but I make lots of noise and smoke!

outdragged by a civic
As an ex owner of both - EP3 Civic Type R owner (Newish shape '03), and DC5 '05 Integra type R the power delivery is pretty different to my TT Z, The civic and especially the Integra are really light cars, the Civic if I remember weighs at around 1200 kg, and the Integra 1100kg. The six speed close ratio box are amazing and you can change gear extremely quick however with both of them you really have to wind them up into pretty high revs before the V-TEC kicks in around 5900rpm. However starting from the line they are rapid but do run out of puff around 80ish, The Zed I find a completely different beast, at the moment I am running at 14psi with an apexi, chip, and zorst and hitting full boost I sh%t my pants every time, which I never did in either of the hondas. Great cars, but for mid range grunt, and shear lunatic power the hondas cant keep up with the big boys. (Oh unless they have a charger on them! a Civic Type R with a Rotex will push out around 300bhp)

What sort of condition is yours in? my power flow is about 10 years old, and although the boxes look good, not sure about the pipework, so if not swap how much are you wanting? I am going to Z-World in the new year for some lovely new sills, so may do a job lot!
