HID Install now speedo problem?
could be then MPH convertor, sometimes the steering goes heavy at slow speeds then picks its self back up? i have also noticed the speedo needle jump at idle when i put the rear heated window on before i had Hids or even switch headilights on..

HID Install now speedo problem?
Jusat installed a set of dip beam 6000k HIDS today, just been out to test them in the dark and when engine is running and everytime i switch the HID's on my speedo needle wangs itself round to 180 and back and the trip counter white segment rotates itself one number..WTF? is this a ground fault? weird or what.

some of my window and roof trims are cracking and revealing the bright chrome work underneath. how do you strip all the black plastic coating off ready to re-paint, some of it just crumbles off in the hand but alot of it is still well stuck on..

New Gauges installation
They look awesome mate, i will treat myself to some of those for defo! i bought that very same facia bud so mine will look similar but not as good as yours, those gauges definatley are worth the money when they look like that installed. Hot glue keeps it secure then?

New Gauges installation
Thanks bud, all sorted as the boost gauge comes with a sensor unit which T-pieces in. How does the Z Centre facia fix to the centre console? i have also had to remove the surround on the gauges but does look miles better as it brings them closer.

New Gauges installation
Thanks mate, do we have any wiring colour diagrams for ECU and clocks bud? I bought 3 of those plasma gauges from e-bay:blushing: I have looked at the drift gauges which look awesome but having spent £2500on my car over the past 3 months on many high spec parts i thought id give them a go as they are only 20 quid each but i almost certainly will buy some good ones next year...

New Gauges installation
Hi all, i have bought 3 gauges to fit in the panel Luke supplies from Z Centre:biggrin: air fuel ratio, boost and oil pressure (all electrical type). Can i pick up all the connections i need from the ECU which would be easier or to i need to link under bonnet? If ECU has anyone got a diagram/colour or number guide or if under bonnet same applies.. cheers James

Xmas present HID kit??
Thanks all for your comments, looking forward to fitting them over christmas and hope to be able to go out for a drive in it as at the moment its been in the garage for three weeks as the snow and ice is too bad in Hull down our close and id never get to the top of the street as its about as smooth as the moons surface.

Rear camber adjusted.
Thanks mate, i knew we would all get there in the end just a difficult one to explain in writing (well for me at least, ha) I would suspect its a worn bush to be honest, im gonna buy the rear adjustables from Luke at Z centre so i can "reset" the rear like you have done. I wont be using it for a while anyhow its 5" thick in snow in Hull at the moment..:sleep:

Rear camber adjusted.
Yer i will have to buy some but just curious as to what could put it out so much?
-
Rear camber adjusted.
sorry either im missing the point or i havent explained myself properly? The passenger side is adjusted to maximum negative camber. (top of wheel leans in) The driver side is adjusted to maximum negative camber. (top of wheel leans in) The passenger wheel leans in about 10mm more than drivers side.... no more adjustment left on either side.. Surely they should both be the same when on maximum? so why is one 10mm more than other? sorry people, hope this helps?
