Would like to try boost test?
someone on here made a boost leak plug, think it was znut, maybe pm him but i'm sure it was made out of a coffee jar lid with a bike tire (same as car) valve pushed through the centre, then just use a foot pump to give it some preassure and listen for the hiss i suppose. Not done this myself yet so cant comment on how easy or hard but seems easy enough

Hicas solenoid bypass
Hi, Just got a rack to remove my hicas, have seen a kit on z1 with a solenoid bypass thingy... (sorry not sure of correct word) Seems to be a popular thing to do on here so was wondering what anyone has used to connect the 2 fluid pipes together, really wanna get this done as the hicas is pissing me off, i'm sure theres a problem with it so i just want to get rid. Thanks in advance guys, had my car off the road all year trying to sort it just this and a few odds and sods and i'll be ready for action again woop woop

Can a boost leak cause lumpy running, poor idle?
Recently fitted a boost guage, i dont think i have a boost leak but since my idle has dropped to about 650 from about 8 and its cut out twice when cold. It also seems very lumpy when i pull up at lights.

saxo vtr question
only good thing about a saxo compared to a zed is that you dont need as much fuel, but that just means you'll be passed by snails and your 85yr OAP neighbour in a mobility scooter ha ha

Some Golfers advice
you could get a half decent set off ebay if you look well and dont buy the first lot you see, but i'd go somewhere like american golf first to get a feel for a few different set-up's first like stiff flex reg flex etc. i started with a budget set of regal clubs paid 150 for full set including bag and trolley they were ok but didnt improve my game much, then i got a used set of Titleist DCI irons which i now use very well indeed (especially as they forged) considering they're over 5 years old. clubs are expensive so i think it's good to settle with a few different types before splashing out on an expensive new fitted set
