to ice or not to ice?
General consenus feeling really. Is it ok to ram 18 billion watts worth of eletrical hardware into your zed? or does the car lend itself to a more subtle approach that doesnt require so much stuff. IS it rice to ice in your opinion :D my opinion is the zed is focused enough to not need a stero at all. my previous car didnt the pur of the engine and lack of stero made it thjat more special to drive.

feul additives.
opinions and technical bumf appricated. basically i threw some red ex something or other feul injector cleaner throuigh my car that supposed to clean them up and give you better mpg and raise octane numbers. both me and my my father tryed it he has an rx8. after about 200 miles he hit a flat spot followed by alot of crap that came out the rear and since then the car has never driven better, more resposive tec so he says. and i too tbh did have something simular i took it out for a blast crap came out and it ran/runs much better, feels miore responsive etc and seems to produce better acceration higher up the rev range. it also seems to have cured the pulsing i had at full boost. should i contine to use this product to give me higher octane ratinga nd keep the injectors clean or should i pop it on the shelf and forget about it? maybe it was all in my head...? i did wonder wether the increased octane rating agreed with the car more because its a jspec and never been ajdusted ti run on lower rating english feul. was thinking about using another product they do for cleaning cataylic convertors

Engine Question
right i think your getting confused. if you look down by the big white fan, the vicous fan as its known you will see thre 15mm or so black smooth belts. these run off a pulley down in the bottom under the fan. you will see this spinning when the engine is on. the three belts run off of this these are known as anncilry belts they run things like the alternaor, power steering pump, air conditioning etc. on the right hand side you will see there is a pulley. this is the air con compressor. if there is no belt here its probally because the compressoir has siezed try turning it by hand when the engine is off obviously! it probally wont move. so many people detached it rather than replace it. with me so far? this is why you only have two belts. as long as these are in good condition, no freying etc or excesivily warn down, and are of the correct tension so they dont slip, and squeal. then your ancileraies will hopefully do there job :D the main belt. i assume you mean timing belt is safely hidden behind the black platic that covers teh front of the engine. you can undo a few bolts to peak in there and see how bad or maybe good it is. if youve just brought the car i cannot recommed highly enough taking your car to zedworld, they will do a full health check of your car and advise you on what needs doing for a very fair price. most of the members here will also recommend thier services. best of luck.
