abs connections
anyone care to clear up with me what happens when you do a brake upgrade regaurding the abs? how can it be connected upto the new calipers? and would the increase in breaking need adjustment to allow them to be used to full effect without the abs cutting in at the wrong point?

Alternator Mounting Bolt Size
lol yeah i went through that stage, it ended up on a low loader about 5 times nearly every time i took it out it wouldnt come back under its own steam lol. youve driven it to germany and back mate dont forget and it didnt shit the bed during that, so that does tend to say at least the block is healthy. just niggly little ******* things that happen.

Alternator Mounting Bolt Size
alright rob, think its gonna be 15mm ish? best to just slide out the bolt and pop down to your local fixing place. you can actually reach round the alt and get a spanner on it to hold it in place while you do it up with a ratchet from the front. once youve got a few turns on the spanner will jam in place until your done and can pop it off. if you want a hand im about on saturday?

how much can 1 6mm screw pi*s you off
mine did that a while back at the petrol station. fortunatly i popped the bonnet and noticed tighted it up and all was well. that really does suck though. hopefully tou can polish the ding out

Would these fit.
no there 112 pcd the zed runs 114.5 pcd so the stud spacing is totally wrong. you could use an adaptor to MAKE them fit however do you really want to? and they are only 8.5" wide! which is less than stock jspec width.

Guess what .......................Engine out again
ffs mark, thats crap news. i do have to admitt i was stood there last weekend thinking it was odd that you had condensation coming out the exhaust an hour after going out on track. mostly from the drivers side. i suppose what you have to bear in mind this that 16 psi on those tubs is alot more air than 196psi on stock tubs. i really hope its something silly not a majour problem? have you done compression/leakdown? jimmer will sort you out mate and its a good excuse to visit the south of england again lol. 3rd time in how many months now for you lol? best of luck.
