Haven't got a clue what's causing this problem mate :confused1: I've started a new thread for you as you'll probably get more help that way.

You got to respect that :bow:

Or the "I don't indicate at roundabouts cause I'm better than you forum" :lol:

My old zed's insurance included a like for like courtesy car in the event my car was off the road. When I asked for a one expecting a 350z or similiar they offered me a ford Ka!! Told the bloke I'd rather feckin walk! And how does that compare to a 300BHP GT car? Never got an answer.

That's what I was thinking as it's the only tapered pipe I can think of.

I think it helps direct air onto the fan and does help cooling, but could be wrong.

I'm not surprised mate, to much of a good thing. I only really drink occasionally now, but when I do I seem to turn into a bit of an :asshole: :thumbup1:

lol. Yeah, i've got a DSLR as well but I don't know how to use it properly :no:

Can I have the beer then?:tongue_smilie:

I was having a great deal of trouble finding the cause of a misfire on my no.1 cylinder. I change the coil pack twice for know good ones, checked the injector was firing properly, changed both the coil and inj connectors for new ones, tried a different spark plug but still the misfire was there! I then had a look at my relocated PTU and the 7 pin side had been getting water in to it and had rusted up plus the loom connectors were green! A quick clean up and the misfire had gone :thumbup: Need to replace the loom part that's corroded and re-think my location for the PTU (on inner wing next to batt) but I call that a result.

Fantastic pictures there Mrs Anus. I wish I could do that! If it was me there would be a bleedin' great thumb in the way! lol

Sorry re-read your post and this is probably of more help. lol The arrows show the ABS cables.

Is this any use to you? You can find the info in the service manual section BR (Brakes) at BR25 HTH

Blimey, I'm the only one on here. :w00t: Sod it i'm off to bed! :turned:

:ban: Only joking mate, looks a nice beemer you got yourself there. If you can afford it though, i'd keep the zed. You'll probably regret selling it.

Bloke should be loaded in to a spaceship and fired into the Sun for that crime...

My old zed was a very early '89 JDM but I killed it! :oops:

I think the club should buy all us long term subscribers one each! :biggrin::whistling:

Cheers mate, I had completely forgotten about the oil cooler! lol Yeah the pipe is connected to the wastegate (one each side), that's cool then. I will be fitting an EBC so I don't need to worry about the tips then.

I've been replacing vacuum piping on my spare engine getting it ready to go in my beast but I can't work out where this pipe goes? The vacumm diagram says it goes to the throttle bodies but where abouts? (photo 1) Also, I took the other side off to replace and found a metal restricter in the end, I can only assume that this is a mig tip. My old zed that the engine came from did boost off the scale and didn't have any after market boost controllers, so I did think "boost jets". I this right? Oh yeah, I forgot. Where do the two oil lines that come out of the oil pan go to? (photo 2) Cheers Dave

You should tell that's not true; There's just me and the zed :lol::lol:

nice, i'll have to look at getting one of em..

cool :thumbup1: Any idea how much it was?
