wheel alignement problem
Cars in the UK will naturally pull slightly to the left, becuase of road camber , but it sounds like a mistake was possibly made with the alignment

why is it so hard to beat factory figures?
Car and Driver magazine recorded a flat 5.0 sec time and 13.1 sec 0-100mph with a TT SWB Manual. Most magazines and tests have achieved around 5.5 - 5.6 secs for the stock Manual TT.

Urgent central locking help... engineer here right now!
You just need to fix it in a suitable location behind the door, where it can be connected to the connecting rod between the external door lock and internal lock. Compare the location with the doorcard, to make sure you can fit the card back on without problems.

why is it so hard to beat factory figures?
I never tested my TT stock, but with 1 bar boost I have recorded several runs all under 5 secs (4.77sec being my best so far, and 11.89 0-100mph). It always varies, Magazine tests when the Z32 came out were getting figures as low as 5.0 secs, and one even published a 6.5 sec time. Most were in the mid 5's though. With the NA, I have only tried it once, it seemed like an ok launch but I only got a 7.8 secs :(

Performance Upgrades for a NA
tbh, unless he is an expert on the Z32 I suspect he did'nt know what he was talking about. Some other cars do benefit from leaving the cats in place, due to the way the ECU is setup for fuelling and the expected backpressures..etc but the NA Zed does benefit from being decatted.

HKS mushroom and Apexi air filters
In the tests that are floating about the internet somewhere the Apexi and HKS both flowed the same rates (and both higher than the others) but the Apexi was the best at filteration and the HKS the worst of the group. Not sure why you could be noticing a difference, to be honest an air filter, no matter which make is'nt going to make much difference to the zed anyway.

Germany World Cup & Nürburgring Road Trip
:( :( My Passenger dropped out, and then Zed blew its head gasket. I've been trying to sort something else out, but its not going to happen. :rant: :cry: My trip was partly seperate from you guys, different ferry, different dates..etc , but I have my hotel room half paid already that I will no longer be able to use :( (p.s they cant charge you for whole room, they will just keep deposit we already paid) Im absolutely gutted :( ....and shocked that others have pulled out too I thought it was just me.

Gtech 60-0 brake test
Its the responsiveness that takes away the "feel" though. You can tell whats happening and control the braking better in the zed without the snappy response. The Zed brakes are good, when they are working correctly, most are running around with tired braking systems, the most common fault being seized caliper pistons and owners dont realise that they are running around with 2/3 pot brakes instead of fully functional 4 pots.
