did you get to the bottom of this? ive gota misfire myself just wondered if you discovered the cause?

found it drivers side front cyldner isnt firing can remove the connection and engine note doesnt change. plug sparks, and ive done the screwdriver test and the injector is tapping however its a bit slower sopunding than the others i recon, matybe my imagination. gonna do an olhm test tomorrow

just had a look at it didnt try the foot trick but i fiddled about with the coil packs and injector connections, i think its a misfire poor connection on one of the injectors. sounds a bit like a scooby at times, give ita wiggle sounds better, then worse etc. gonna run codes and clean the injector connections.

that seriously blows man, gary is right tho. theres not much you can do till you get a reply and you never know it might come up roses, he may compensate you fully or summin for teh sake of his reputation its worth it. take some time out till its done outta sight outta mind do a spoot of fishing :D

pk i had a feeling it may be summin like this, gotta find it first :D

when my car is warm the idle is a little odd, it sits at a proper 1000rpm then drop down to 500rpm for a second then pop back up then not do it for 20 seconds or so then do it again. this has only started happening since i fitted a new oil cooler and bunged up a few leaks in the exhaust. any ideas what this is ive had a quick search and im thinking maybe its a bad connection to the idle control valve?

in what world is that gold zed worth 6k? he admits himself it needs cosmetic work for dents and scratches. what gremlins are lurking under the bonnet?

there not actually black from factory tho are they there like a graphite colour i brought a brand new one from zcentre last year cos half mine left the car. we wont get into why :/ been thinking bout pulling it off and the rubber mouldings and spraying them black to give it a cleaner look does look better

ah i did think it was but its still low lol and i noticed the gaffertape lol brave! my old car ripped off a u clip from the exhaust on its maiden voyage never been a big fan of speed bumps since

wish i still worked in a fab shop coulda done stuff like this in my lunch breaks :( the guys in the polishing shop used to polish little bits up for me aswel which ws awesome. looks good, i ran open cambelt on my capri for ages with no issues, it seems a damn dame to go covering up the vernier pulley

nice job on the calipers, how low is your car tho? looks pretty damn low, your a brave man who obviously lives sum where very flat, with better roads than here in dorset and hampshire

and as a further note yassa it does look the buisness on your car!

its the led light version i like, but i dunno seems like im gonan have to import one and its gonna need some serious time in the body shop to sort out the fitment issues. and thre a mid level supra style one in my garage taht just wants sanding back painting and bolting in hrmmmm

nice tip on the rubber hose sleeve, may have to use that one

bigger sound system lol. what do you need that for in a zed? i barely ever use the cd player other than on the motorway. spend the money on some service items gotta be summin that needs doing? like that fan clutch?(not trying to be a d**k, mostly said in jest but half serious on service items)

just wanted to say a quick thanks to zedworld and zcentre a few guys here for your helpfull suggestions recently. just taken my car for a drive no smoking, no leaking and good boosting :D touch wood. just gotta sort out that boost leak cheers

that bottom z with the texas plate is very nice needs 99 spec rears tho :D and so do i! is importing them the only real way to get one?

agreed hence the reason most modern cars have this set up, but unfortuntly i dont think people research properly as you say and it ends up pretty expensive, although saying that the new fan clutch from nissan is a rip

seconded take a quick look, people have had some very poor results swapping over to eletric fan. if done right its very efficent but its big bucks to do properly.

awesome i could do with one of these for fishing etc and towing my zed :D

anyone going down to the veltam jap car meet? belive its near fleet?

i have to agree, its nota supra so why try to make it look like one. :/ i like the standard one but ive got one of those persex rear pannels and dont wanna lose it.

the subtle jag style vents look ok. there not overpowering or too intrusive. although it seems a shame to ruin the subtle lines on a zed bonnet with vents in it. nota fan of the huge budges and holes. too ricer, to civic. but each to there own hey. car.mad didnt you have running issues from a missing rubber at the back of the engine bay? couldnt this sorta venting cause the same issues with water getting in??

anyone seen a kaminari rear spoiler in real life and any opinions on them? also where could i get one? im looking to put a spoiler on my zed as it didnt have one when i brought it. ive gota high level one in the garage that needs painting but ive kinda gone off it prefer the standardish look

im arranging things mostly through the djcc website. not really sure of a set date yet, but keep your eyes open. you gonna be at eveltham this weekend?
