Yeah I thought as much, just got used to the freedom of the net before they installed this. Just gotta do my surfing at home then I suppose.

Hi all, My company have recently installed Forti Guard and blocked loads of websites like file sharing etc. I used to be able to bypass it by using another proxy server, but they've now caught on and banned loads of them. Does anyone know of a way of getting around the FortiGuard security? Cheers

Thanks for this, I shall take a look this week.

Hi there, I think that I've got a problem with my starter motor as just getting clicking noise when trying to turn it over. Checked battery at first but its not that. Now in the past with other cars, I've just given the starter motor a tap with a hammer and then all is well, but on the Z I have no idea where it is let alone whether I can get to it at all. Where is it, can I get to hit it and if needs replacing, are they expensive and much labour to fit? Cheers

Thanks guys for this, I shall give Ztech a call then as quite near me, just wanted to make sure that they were up and running really.

Hi there, I've had my car serviced in the past firstly by Ztech, then SWZ and only for oil changes to Nissan, but now that Ztech has changed hands, I'm not sure if they are up and running properly as yet, and SWZ website is no longer up and running, well it wasn't yesterday, but where else can I get my Z serviced as dont want to take to Nissan? I am in the Reading area so south east as such but dont mind travelling abit though if service is good. Cheers

Yeah I took the car to Paul at SWZ for a service and asked him about excess smoke out the exhausts and he confirmed that one of the turbos had a seal that was leaking, therefore causing smoke to come out when its been idling for a while.

Thanks Mark, I was going to get 2 brand new standard turbos from http://www.conceptzperformance.com/, but you've given me some more options now. I am though, only looking at spending up to 1.5K though and would prefer brand new so will probably at that price have to go for standard turbos, but I shall check out these other companies as well. Thanks Barry

The turbo seal has gone on one of my turbos and is leaking oil which makes some excess smoke come out of the exhaust. So I was going to replace them probably with standard ones as I cant afford upgrades at the moment, but what else would I need when replacing them? Do I need some gasket kit etc? Thanks

Can a leaking rear seal on a turbo cause the Co emissions to go high during an MOT?. The exhausts produce some blue smoke because of this when idling for a while and was wondering whether the leaking oil from turbo could mix with the normal gases coming out of exhausts to give high Co readings.

Yeah I do own a Zed but its not in the rides section, just never got around to it I suppose, but I wasn't in my Zed that day, had the family car after coming back from Bournemouth.

Well looking at the picture on your thread I'm sure it was you, looks nice man.

Saw a lovely looking Silver Zed coming out of Windsor going Ascot/M3 bound on Saturday 1st September, very nicely indeed.

Yeah that was me again this morning, I see that you have 2 Zed's?

Hi there, yeah that was me, only bring the Z out now and again.
