Arc welding question
a bit of broken polystyrene pressed into semi wet filler will give a pretty good match to the stone chip on the sills . then a little spin around a muddy field should finish off the blending effect .

zedworld bash members and cars
after going to the zedworld bash saturday i must say it was nice to meet and talk with fellow members . it would be nice if someone in the know could tag the pics taken naming members and their cars . so much nicer chatting on the forum when you can put a face and car to the user name on the site .

lowering springs
if you drop to much with your old shocks you will get bottoming out problems or maybe hitting your arches due to worn shocks. you really need to upgrade your shocks along with the springs to avoid any issues . a very popular combination is eibach springs and agx shocks . not cheap but a massive difference in ride and handling . i was lucky enough to pick up the above combination from jefftt and am very pleased with the results . the stance of the car now looks spot on

speed cameras to be turned off
i saw a story on central news tonight reporting the regions 304 speed cameras were to be turned off as the local authorities couldnt afford the costs of running them . the date given for the turn off , APRIL 1st . I might be being a bit suspitious here but i can just imagine a load of £60 fines landing on doorsteps a week later with bloody april fool stamped on top of the fine .

Roll on cheap petrol!!
as with anything like this if it is ever made available the government ,whoever it is at the time would tax it to the limit to take all the benefits away from us . more likely the major oil producers would buy the idea for an obscene amount of money and shelve it to protect their industry . this happened a few years back when a new type of battery was created that massively outlasted the life span of normal batteries . the technology was bought and shelved .

Sergent C old zed is back
to a true zed enthusiast our cars are priceless . i think some of the main reasons for our cars being valued lower than we would like apart from the obvious running and maintenance costs are the amount of other high performance cars available nowadays . the likes of subarus and evo,s to name just two . things of beauty they arnt but for someone who just wants the thrill of a fast car they are cheap options compared to a zed. when you consider every £ we spend on our cars basically adds about 20p to the value then only someone who actually loves the car would spend the money. myself personally i love my zed and therefore dont count the money thats been spent . i,d probably shite myself if i worked it out but then again when a complete stranger stops you and comments what a beautifull car you have it makes it all worth while . long live the zed and if anyone wants mine its priceless and not for sale

ECU Water temp sensor
the way to test your fan is to disconnect one of the wires with the ignition on . the fan should start . if it dosent check the auxillary fan relay is in place in the engine bay main fuse box . these are sometimes used for the headlights as its the same relay . often they are missing .
