you've gotta start somewhere.. Would be v. interested to see how the power changes through the loosening-up process. But only works if you keep it in the same state of tune - which probably wouldn't be for long eh?

tracking should be a quick fix.. £35 to get mine done the other week. always nice to have a car that goes in a straight line

Well i can't talk... Got put to bed by my girlfriend on saturday night (again) after a party.. Just can't handle my Vodka and Beer together... Cmon admit it - you'd drink anti-freeze if it got u hammered - we're all friends here!:helpsmilie:

So just red wine you don't like then... Oh, hang on a minute where's that 'my head hurts' thread. When you got hammered on red vino and .... can't remember now (Guiness?). Basically Stellaz is a fish... FACT

When you say marginal, what do you mean: - Run for your lives, she's gonna blow? Also in your experience whats the transmission loss? 350 = ???? at the fly? Sounds to me, assuming the transmission loss is roughly similar, that outright hp would be very similar? oui, oui, oui:saddam:

Is it actually a problem? Have you tried revving the engine when its hot (preferably in a bridge or tunnel) at night to see if its spitting flames? I'd hope so! I wouldn't start replacing lots of stuff though - unless you want to.. Better to get a proper diagnosis done. "Look, there's a wild goose - lets chase it" and so on:lol:

Actually both your turbos are seized its just the paint that makes it so fast:yes:

Calm down dear - its only a commercial (or not as the case may be) Lesley Neislen, Airplane! "Looks like I chose the wrong day to stop sniffing glue." There's meaning in there somewhere. Don't get stressed about the mod's - they're just like traffic wardens (sorry guys - expecting instant ban..) - they're only trying to do their job! And stellaz fallen off the wagon again, bigtime - he's much better about 8 o'clockish when he's lagered up again!!!:duffer: Can you get any pics up?

It is quite possible that whoever had it mapped actually wanted a bit of popping and cracking on the overun. My mate had his caterham tuned like that - doesn't improve performance but does sound pretty cool if you like that sort of thing.. I would get the map checked out and or tweaked - if everything seems to be working fine then its probably just a fuelling issue. I'd keep it like that:thumbup1:

Someone has been drinking... Next you'll be taking naked photos off yourself and posting the on the forum, shortly befor slipping into manic depression and telling everyone 'im gonna end it all'. Then waking up next morning with a bad head feeling very embarassed. Or does that only happen to me? Stella, that's a girl's drink. Any offers on special brew:detective:

I'll give you a tenner for it:tt2: Seriously though, sounds to me like you should get those little jobs sorted and go for top money. OK its not the newest Zed on the market, but the mileage is good and the rust issue is a biggy when it comes to people buying - so more bonus points there. Lastly - clean the car to death befor you take any pics - this will add another £100 quid at least:yes: And as Micheal Knight says - do some research - you must have a gut feeling what its worth? My guess though - it'll be worth more if you get it immaculate and make it stand out. White is a popular colour again, but looks tragic when not pristine. Or do it the lazy way and sell yourself short:oops: And just for the record - I believe it was a genuine enquiry - ignore Micheal, he's all grumpy cos now they have a new Night Rider car...:tt2:

There's also a video of your car being tuned to watch on their website.. Hmmm 400bhp:drool:

methinks this thread might just turn into a 'what colour is your car' thread..:hammer: But, on that basis black wins again:gunsmilie: Black is the fastest colour and the best colour. Anyone who says differently is living in denial! Of course - if my car was silver, well..

Next you'll be telling us the chase scenes in night rider were speeded up.. Crazy fool! Black is, of course, the fastest colour. I can prove this too.. What colour is a black hole? hmmm, its a tricky one.. I'll give you a clue - its black. Why? Cos nothing can escape from it - just like a black zed. Thread closed..:tt2:

Quality!!!

Doh, Damo just sold his minter.. Looks like you missed out! M5 and still craves a Zed, now that is saying something - respect! Damo, you're too much man for me to handle - leather or no!:blink:

Make sure you get a good price - the car does look like a minter (little niggling probs aside) Obviously it only worth what someone is willing to pay - but hold out for a serious offer and don't let any blood-suckers try it on! Best of luck - hope you return quickly to the fold:thumbup1:

Great figures.. Hope for us all then with relatively standard engines. How much did the session cost - if you don't mind me asking? Also, do take the figures with a pinch of salt - but I would say that you have a guaranteed 400 brake at the the fly which is pretty freakin cool:thumbup1: Dyno results do tend to vary from system to system, but I would suggest a maximum difference of about 20% between the most optimistic and pessimistic ones. But what else are you supposed to do? Great stuff - thanks for sharing:clap:

Hmmm.. Forgot to mention.. have removed the silver door edges now - thats improved the overall appearance no end. Also sprayed the vents below the windscreen black again.. oh and fitted a new drivers seat I bought offa slick pete! Slowly getting back to the standard look (nice). PS - I'm not letting any power ranger in a leather gimp suit in my car:tt2: See you sunday

OK - I'll PM you closer the time.. See you there - please don't offer me a ride on your bike. I've seen your driving... LOL cheers bud

Aww poor little thing And look what you've done - you've reduced most of the forum to a bunch of hanky-sobbers. Me included:blushing: Since you're in a philosphical frame of mind, I firmly believe things happen for a reason - so try not to dwell on the passing of the poor little birdy, but reflect on what it may mean for the future. That bird could have just changed your life without you even realising. very sad

Glad someone else mentioned this.. Sometimes when I boot it, i get water on my rear glass, thought i was goin a bit daft and hitting the button by mistake! One-way valves eh..:laugh:

Should be - you thinkin of headin over bassetts pole? cheers

Excellent.. a thread about hitting birds. I don't even have to worry about the Women's Institute this time:whistling: I was driving my mums Volvo 340, back in the day... Was wringing its neck down some back lanes and came across two wood pigeons sat in the road. At this point in my life I still thought it was cool to kill stuff and hit the accelerator pedal.. As the speedo arced round to about 85mph the birds had still not noticed my approach:detective: A wry smile spread across my face the instant I realised we had reached the point of no return and they were surely, doomed. Car approaches.. Pigeon faces look up:ohmy: Pigeons leap into the air in a futile attempt to evade imminent death:scared: only to make it to the same height as the car's bumper. Any anoraks on here (or desperately unlucky people) will know a Vovle 340's front bumper is roughly a 45 degree angle. Well, the pigeons certainly knew that fact very well! Both were launched like feather propelled grenades straight into the atmosphere. Cheering my impossibly well timed strike I glanced backwards in the mirror to see a cloud of feathers gently settling back down to earth and momements later the THUD, THUD as the two souless birds came back down after their last ever flight.. I can't adequately express the pure poetry of these events. The birds had literally shot straight up (im guessing) about 100ft into the air and returned, nearly to the centimetre, where they had launched from. As an adult I realise this was senseless and maniacal, but in my defence I did almost die laughing...:lol:

Firstly, Bless you. That poor little birdy, spotted you with its one good eye and thought 'my saviour is here' (shortly before you took it somewhere it would be surrounded by inquisitive cats and curious dogs..) Secondly, I havn't read a thread in ages with so much latent humour. I don't wish to be an arse - but i'm sure he's eyeing up a worm in picture 4:lol: Not only that, but I had no idea a vet had an obligation to treat small animals (birds, insects etc).. I hit a bee the other day in my van and it looked pretty sick as it smeared up my windscreen - I have a feeling it was beyond help though. Its just the thought of someone actually taking an insect to the vets that amuses me 'please can you help my millipede.. I think its broken its leg..':lol: But good job you had the forethought to handle it with a pair of gloves. A women near us was knocked to the ground and had her purse stolen by a sparrow not long ago:lol: I've heard their beaks can be as sharp as clothes pegs! Hysterics aside, it was a very generous act. Please update with progress - its kinda cool to think the little birdy might remember you and occaisionally pop by to say hello. We assume all to quickly that these little creatures have few brains and so on, but there's more and more evidence that shows pretty startling levels of intelligence. Just to prove I can laugh at myself - I had a job last year that invariably meant digging lots of holes (not just proverbial ones) and I ALWAYS used to rescue worms befor I hacked them with my spade. My colleagues thought I was nuts, but I seem to have developed a respect for all forms of life, however seemingly trivial. But this nuturing instinct doesn't extend to my fellow human beings (or many of them, at least). But thats another rant.. Good job - as Dave said, if there were more people like you, the world would be a better place!
