Double check with them that they sent it to the correct address.

Pay-pal
Yes, make sure they sent it to the correct email address - the one you registered with Paypal obviously ! Then when you login you should see the payment and there is a probably a 'claim' button or something.

Your zed- an every day car?
I used to use mine everyday, it's only when my annual mileage jumped from 8-10,000 to 20,000 that I got something else. However, for the first 5 or so years I covered 50,000 with no problems.

Running in after rebuild
Opinion is divided on this. I tend to stick with the traditional, take it easy,rev it a bit but don't load the engine for 500 miles (or until I get bored). There is a school of thought that suggests you rev the spuds off it pretty much as soon as it's built, that way the rings/bores etc don't get time to work harden and therefore bed in very quickly before further wear takes place. You may be interested to know that a new 350 doesn't even require it's first oil change until 9,000 miles !!!!! I could hardly believe it. Anyway, it's done nearly 70K now and at about 60K was spot on the factory bhp spec on a dyno ....

R8 cathes fire
Proper toasted. Aluminium does burn nicely when it gets going.

Nice looking car, wheels suit it well.

Bloody car insurance
Because they've got your business now. Do you have a cooling off period ? If so try elsewhere.

Changing Headlight Bulbs - The Impossible Puzzle
You can but 100w bulbs tend to overheat in the headlight casing, plus they often draw enough current to melt the wiring (that was only intended for 55w).

5th Gear tonight...Bugatti Veyron..
Too right, and the fact she's a bit of a sex-pot too (IMHO) makes her all the better ! ;)

Hicas warning light
Is your steering wheel centered ? If not then the HICAS will detect a fault after driving for a few miles with the wheel off-centre.

Wouldn't have enough puff to spin them up !

Removed My Privelages!!
No toads here (except those that don't pay their subs! ;) ). It's done automatically by the forum s/w. You would have been sent notification a few days before expiry - check your Hotmail spam filter - that's where they often end up.
-
Front Calipers on the rear?
Nope, you'd need to modify the hubs. I did it to install the 350Z rears and it's a pain.

Ztech ECU
Probably not unless they're been labelled.
