I need this painted on the back of my flying jacket http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2415/3537125941_7bd17989c5_o.jpg Does anyone know where I could get it done, I had a look on Google but nothing really coming up. Also no ideas on what paint would need to be used, I have someone in the office re drawing it so we have a vector. I guess the other option is trying to find someone who can make it into a heat transfer?

Yes my last post was for the targa thread damn phone lol.

Mine are leaking really badly seems that since the respray something has gone amiss. Runs straight down the inside of the window mostly drops out the join onto the drivers seat and the rest comes out the dials on the pillar.

Omfg :scared: he probably has a better collection of tools and spares than most of us at the moment lol.

He also has my spot weld dent puller at the moment. Im guessing that Vodkashots is building a second zed out of borrowed bits by the sound of it :sailor: I believe my dent puller should be repatriated with me shortly :wink: a good friend of mine needs it Sunday.

Its the £30 change of address ones that get me I tell them im not paying and to keep sending it all to my previous address then they change it for free. If they CANT offer insurance on your new car they will give you an 100% refund as it is their fault was it a Ferrari you are buying??????

Blimey congrats bud

thanks guys some good ideas

Banzai mag want to come and take some pics of my Car ASA for a feature most likely for the april edition. Asked me if I know anywhere nice to have the pics taken any ideas. Other than up the hill im out of ideas???

I reckon on mine now I have stuck over 65K into it. Technically I think as a car it might be worth about 10-15K to someone who wanted it. To me it is priceless... 10 or 15K would not buy you half the car my Zed is for that kind of money. Maybe the right way to sell these cars is to massivley upgrade them and ask for massively high prices. The people with real money who have 3-4 play things in the garage would not think twice about spending 30-40K on a car if it was modified right. But these are not the kind of people that would probably want one at like 5-10K. Or want anything that looks like it has been built up doing a drive through at Halfords. Basically if I ever wanted to sell mine I would need to part it out as it is worth more as the sum of the parts rather than as a car. And seeing some of the prices in the for sale forum actually being more than the bits new I might even turn a profit on it LOL.

My wife was out riding her horse yesterday with her friend. Her friends horse slipped going down a road got scared then bolted. Her friend came off on the concrete and fell on her back hitting her head. She was out cold and my Mrs initially thought she was dead as she was completely non responsive. She called an ambulance and it took them 55 minutes to attend!!! for most of this time her friend with serious back and head injuries was lying unconcious in the road, then she awoke now and then to scream in agony before she went unconcios again. After 20 minutes the Ambulance called her to say they were busy but a private ambulance would be with her in 7 minutes. 20 minutes later the private ambulance called to say it was lost and asked for directions. When it eventually got in just under an hour there they asked "two passers by" to help get her on the back board as she had spinal injuries. My wifes mum had made her way to the accident site and went in the ambulance. To her astonishment the driver got lost and had to ask her the way to the Hospital as she is a nurse there!. When the poor girl got into Hospital apart from head and back injuries she had hypothermia as she had been left on the freezing concrete for so long despite passers by putting their jackets on her. how bad is this an hour for an ambulance for serious injury! It was just off a main A road as well so not like it was right out in the sticks somewhere.

yeah get some heat on it bud, then use a torque wrench on it with a hoover tube over that so you can get a real load of force on it.

Well done and great for the money

Very nice car that, i dont think you would find a better example than that for the money, then when you spend money modifying it you know that it was good to start with.

It is looking quite promising for me to come up, got an MOT on my Zed today and just taxed it. Only thing is I have a few problems to fix before I can definately commit. For some reason im only getting 3-4MPG so that needs investigating and water is absolutely pissing in the car through the targas so providing I can get these sorted I will be there. Probably be on my own as well!

Maybe in the future, but today is just a base map. It is running a completely stock fuel system at the moment with no upgrades of any kind and a brand new engine that needs to be run in. Not been worried about doing anything to the fueling side of things until the car was running properly and had an MOT etc. That is a wrap for today not enough fuel going in on the stock system to do any more but loads left engine wise. Will easily be in the 600s when it goes back for the re run after the fueling has been sorted out and the car has been run in and the boost increased. I am really pleased with this considering it is a base map, it already has more BHP than my old Ferrari!. Just need to MOT and enjoy the car a bit now after all the time that it has been off the road, then once it has been run in I will get the fueling done and get it on the dyno for a proper run.

Dude its 7 years old invoice any work done is well old by now

Taking into account a 16% loss that is around 446 at the wheels so far.

530 at the flywheel so far!

Yep that is at the wheels

Just got a text from Jimmer "Just pulled 330BHP at half throttle on 8 PSI of boost, thats real good"

My car goes on the dyno tmoz for its base map. Jimmer and John Dixon are going half way across the country with it. Now it is only gonna be the base map without boost nos or racing fuel as the engine is new but take a guess on the bhp and I will post the results up tmoz. I'm thinking around 450 at the wheels

OMG it is one hell of a job with the engine out, but I guess if you manage to get the retaining bracket off from behind the dash you should be able to do it with it in. Here is the guide that i wrote when I did mine. http://www.project300tt.com/2010/03/15/fitting-the-new-efi-harness/

Great far better than the iphone that I use as a door stop

I think its a waste of time when you can go 30 minutes waiting for someone on a 999 call. Yet they have time to follow and randomly stop people for nothing... priorities are all ass about face in this country. If my car was stolen I would have reported it and the tracker would have been activated. I doubt they would have caught any joy rider in my motor anyway unless in ran out of fuel or they stopped to change the music or something lol. Their time would have been better spent "solving crimes" rather than randomly looking for them. I mean out of 100 random doughnut stops for no reason with a clean ANPR check how many will actually be commiting an offense?. Its one of those nanny state invasion of privicy things IMO
