Off to Barcelona tomorrow
Las ramblas has to be seen, back street bars are half the price. Carry only the cash you need etc, or what you can afford to loose. If you dont get pick pocketed your a lucky man. The marina is a great place to eat aand drink.went there 3/4 years ago. MAD! place and very dodge if your not on the ball. Enjoy, lucky bugger.

iirc the stock ngk plugs were not not only found to be the best but they were designed for the zed specifically.

Alloys and Tyres.
I also like the stock ones when spaced out correctly. There just so small though.

Alloys and Tyres.
Rotas are tried and tested and look great esp grids or simular. 18" rays of the 350 or 17s off the r33 gtr also look great and carry a stoclish element to them.

creaky brakes.
sorry didnt pick up on this, we took it all apart and cleaned it all as it was minging with old brake soot, put them back together but sadly didnt have any copper grease at the time. so put them back together and well they still creak. so i guess my next thing is to copper slip them up. the spacers have been taken off and they still creaked with them removed. so im pretty sure they have sod all to do with it. any other common causes rather than dirt?

my tt is slow!
i think everyones clarifing what i already knew, or thought i knew. it just feels like driving a car with a foorbared friction disc which in a way it is, what supfront simply isnt reaching the wheels some times it locks up and it does othertimes its simply slipping.

my tt is slow!

Check MAF is working
as above mine did this, it was doing as you say and it just got worse and worse, until it felt like the car was constantly and randomly misfiring etc. i spent a fair while cleaning connections and getting quite annoyed. my little daily corsa did it aswel, it would hit about 2k and hit a brick wall. then cough splutter but it was ittermitent ie dangerous. diconnected it and it solved it. my mate recons it was the fastest corsa he had ebver been in with it off lol. it was crap on feul like it though. you will have to disconnect the battery for an hour or so to reset the ecu though afterremoval else it will not show you a thing.

my tt is slow!
it had new fluid in it er within the last 5k. it just feels like the en gine is providing more power than the box can put to the floor.
-
my tt is slow!
it feels slow its currently an auto i tested it today and it took a full 4 seconds to go from a rolling 30mph in d to 60mph considering the car is supposed to do a 0-60 in 5 and half it doesnt seem very good. its super fast once it gets going but it just seems to take a life time to get going. ive mentioned before it also feels like clutch slip obviously that isnt whats happening cos thers no clutch. but you can boot it and the revs hit the roof and you go no faster. grrrrrrrrrrr.
