one cylinder not working properly
check for, functioning coilpacks swap over etc plug is the injector clicking? if so ohm the injector from memory should be 12 to 14 ohms(check that ) stick teh maf in the airing cupboard overnight, its likly either a bad injector or spark or a bad connection to either process of elimination.

Whats your views on this 'Ferrari'?
i simply meant that you cant say its the ferrari part that did the work, as its about speed etc rather than handling or anything else the engine is the star not the shell its still a ferrari but ferrari cant take much credit if that makes sense

Whats your views on this 'Ferrari'?
i guess truth be told its not a ferrari is it. esp considering what its for the part of the car that gives it its outstanding function is not made by ferrari so therefore its an awesome gm v8 tt block with a ferrari wrapper on it. be interesting to know how much ferrari is left tbh. awesome looking piece of kit tho and a standing testiment to the beauty of v8

Hey all!
correct, you would only be insured third party and the zed would have to be insured by sum 1 to be on the road. you be getting pulled over left right and centre otherwise if its anyway like here. so realsitically you would be paying two car insurance premiums. yeh car insurance is expensive esp for people our age, but it will get even more expensive if you get caught without. shop about you will get insurance for around a grand, which works out about 10 notes a month thats two nights out in twon so ey not too bad :D its the petrol that will kill you if your using it daily :D

Lowering advise
from what ive been told its advisable to change the dampers/shocks when doing this as they will be tired as there old. so realistically the price of replacing the standard shocks and uprating the springs will cost around teh same money as getting a set of coilovers from miester is it that sell on here. so if someone else would care to agree or correct me taht has to be the cheapest sensible option.
