Headlight gears
lol.. silly me... overlooked that... Been very busy doing DYI on the front of the house.... and yes, have got the gears and the smaller of the rubber seals.. PM me your address. I'll be home again next Wednesday.. I'll pop them in the post, how does £5 sound? how many cogs did you want, think I've got 4 (will let you know exact numbers).

Headlight gears
agreed ,the TAMIYA replacements are a great long term solution... however they are not a simple job, you need to be careful so as not to push too hard and damage the lights housing. Also they are not a perfect fit together and so in the long term may also have issues (but i can't see why hey wouldn't outlast a 20 year old car) and yes I have done mine with them. aside form that, if you want a quick fix I do have a few of the plastic ones and can post them to you, possible with the rubber bulb seal as well (cheap).. I'll have a look in my storeroom and let you know.

Indicator help please
as far as I know there is only one fuse, however that may not mean the stalk is at fault... check the bulb holders for wire problems and corrosion...

from bad, to worse, to terrible....
how about my car... engine is a beast (Jimmer, Jeff & Noz can confirm) but needs new torbos... you could strip and sell the rest (or use whatever you wanted), it currently has 12 months MOT & 4 months Tax.

Ecu plug in
LOL.. no and don't waist your money... the good Consult software is much cheaper than that. my connectors are only the £20 ones but work fine and the software (as I said before) was free... let me PM you some more info...

Ecu plug in
Hi, I should have made it a bit more clear... I have a couple of consult adapters (& usb cables) and a few different types of software. the consult is the free version and only has limited access but I have another one that is very powerful. since I'm selling the Zed I no longer need them.. and so would be happy to sell them.. (the connectors that is, you can have the software).

Ecu plug in

JDM front indicators.. de-tangoed & SMIC mod (£30 posted)
Front indicators, clear conversion (de-tangoed) and mod for larger SMIC fitments, £30 posted. (these don’t have the hole for the sidelight) The units have been pulled apart and the amber lenses removed. The bulb holder has been cut off, a new hole has been made on the other side of the unit, the section cut out has been heat welded over the old bulb location and the bulb holder has been heat welded in the new location. The inside has been re-sprayed silver. Units have been cleaned and re-sealed.

Big end knock, scored crank, heartache....
buy my car... take engine out, put new turbos on it, put it in yours and break / sell whatever is left....

Smoke after first long drive
that might just be a good idea.... it could be a few things... but I would hazard a guess at turbo oil seals... (mind you that is only a guess). :) could also just be the PCVs, now that would be a nice cheap quick fix.. some other possibles are much worse... good luck.

Has anyone used these?

intermittent poor running
I assume you mean the ECU temp sensor unit (two prong one). if it works correctly it should be telling the ecu exactly that.. so worth a check, connectors, wire and connection to ecu. http://www.karljapetre.com/z/ecu/
-
intermittent poor running
agreed... sometimes it's a nightmare tracing a very small fault. so many possible contenders... MAF, PTU, TPS, ECU, coil pack, fuel, earthing... etc... best of luck.

intermittent poor running
hey, not sure if you've seen this before... http://twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=technical&msg_id=922678 I found it crucial to endure all connectors where secure and clean as well.. the MAF can be cleaned as well..

Looking for used rear lights as I've cracked mine.
LOL... I think he would have used a ruler (as it's not clear how big the washer is) but it was the first thing to hand.... :p

Mmm, not keen on throwing in the towel either.. and yes can do the washer.... one of the dogs found it and propped it beside the light just before I took the shot.... :)
