missing on one side
If missing on an entire side (double check by pulling connectors of each coilpack to make sure which are not running), then its most likely going to to be the PTU or a break in the EFI wiring loom. Check PTU connectors are sitting properly, and check for corrosion on the pins first, before replacing. The smoke will be fuel, where its not burning it in the combusion process on that bank.

smoke!
Check for Brake or Clutch master cylinder leaks. Brown fliud could also be Engine coolant from one of the Plenum or turbo feed hoses or Heater matrix pipes. If unable to find the leak yourself get it to your nearest garage before putting any more miles on her.

New Exhaust(Yeah!!)but now she smokes??
Typically your looking at around £600 for engine in/out. Turbo recon prices depend on the Company who recons them and the condition of the Turbos apon inspection - quite often there will be shaft damage, cracked housings..etc , but expect to pay around the £800 inc VAT figure for the pair reconned from a Reputable company such as Turbo Dynamics. There are others out there who will recon for cheaper, but there are reasons why they are cheaper!

March meet
SW region covers a lot of distance, and unfortunaly a lot of its members dont like to travel. I used to get shot down everytime I actually arranged any meet south of bristol , its good that we recently actually have some more southerly dedicated members. p.s I have'nt been to any meets in the last few months since I stood down as SW Events organiser (although I've still been to more SW meets than anyone else has ! ;)) , put my name down for whatever we do with this new meet.

People's opinions on Renault Lagunas
Si, I had a laguna for family runabout for a while. Had quite a few of the common faults - Gearbox syncros, Heater blower ..etc but drove ok, smooth, comfy..etc Currently have a 406 2.1TD for family runabout at the moment....a much better car ! I would hold out for one over the Laguna.

yes, within reason. Correct offset for the zed would mean they fitted.

tyre width q
35 is probably correct for 285 on 18's , will have to check on tyre calculator

-
tyre width q
No probs with arches, I had 265's on my 19 x 9.5" rear wheels (and it was lowered over 40mm), but the tyres were too narrow and I would of change to 285 tyres if I'd kept the car longer with no worries about rubbing.
-
tyre width q
Quite a few running around with 285's , espcially if wheel is 9.5" or wider.

99 spec front end
You wont really get it any cheaper than a Nissan dealer, it wont be much cheaper than Zcentre though. Could try MJP too. You will also need the indicators for it too, which are approx £50 extra
