Lol. That is the way to do it Pete, sadly I think it's fun to tinker and then once I start remember it's not, only to forget that before the next round of fiddling begins. I need to get my head around exactly what the switch does then test the situation. To make an appropriate modification be it with or without the neutral switch.

If I'm not using it what should the base timing be set to then? 25? As that's what it is now.

Well the callipers fixed and fitted, got the brakes bled and the car on the floor. Road test next. Hopefully that's it sorted. I also eyed up the alignment with the wheels on and it's sitting a lot better. Less camber required on the rear still though and about another 12-25mm to drop on the front. It's getting there. Still need to visit the neutral switch conundrum too. Bit busy this weekend though, it's a certain persons stag do....

What did you do to your zed today?
Nitrogen hasn't got any particles... Not sure that's scientifically correct lol.

Make my zed look better
Most if this has been covered but my opinion. You need something on the front if you wish to retain the skirts. The way the front bumper sweeps under makes it look like it sits about an inch higher than the skirts. This makes it look like something is wrong, like a splitter is missing. So the stillen lip would finish it nicely. I actually don't like your wheels. I just don't feel they suit the car. The white lettering is very 70s and belongs on yank tanks. That's about it really. The rest I like.

Well gaz popped over today to cast his eye on my mishap, after some thinking, trying and coffee he decided to take the caliper off home with him. Fingers crossed. Cheers again gaz. I also checked the system for boost leaks, two tiny ones that I sorted. Then the idle needed checking, I did notice the mot tester struggled a bit with the car and it stalled on him twice. Well removing the yellow idle plug resulted in the engine cutting out, that's why then. All sorted now with a lovely steady and strong idle. Then it was on to the timing which is sitting at 25BTDC which I have to admit I've never changed the settings since the manual conversion. 15btdc is way over on the full expansion of the CAS so I can only assume the neutral switch is either faulty or I didn't connect it sufficiently. The way I wired it up was pin 44 to the neutral switch then to a bolt on the chassis in the tunnel. I assume the ground is poor or the switch faulty. Does anyone know what way the switch works? Should it be a closed cuircuitvat idle or in gear?
