At least get a refrund now whilst he is offering it you. Paypal and be cnuts when it comes to disputes!

Legally, its yours. But....If he wont send it, your better off getting a refund whilst you can and forget it. YOu could take him to a smalls claims court, but is it worth the hassle?? Had it done to me.. And ive been the seller when they wont pay and say they didn't bid!! Dickheads!!

Im doing mine white in the new year. A new white, like the M3's or Audi's..

Happy Birthday mate.. :duffer:

N/a manual zed....Ummmm

I agree with this... Put them to use.

10 points!!

I dont fit into an MX5!

You should get yourself a Z32 and save some money!

Got a small one, took a big effort to sort it out, and they dont do anything!!

It would have to be RWD for me. Im thinking of another E36 328i or a 200sx. I'd rather get the Zed back on the road tho!! Just been on ebay since posting that. If i win all of what im winning now, i'll be £700 lighter!!

My cars in the garage without its engine. Im getting board of not being able to drive something fun. Please talk me out of buying something else to play with, otherwise, it will never get finished!! Ive already got the family car and Van for work....

Just looked at your website. Your car is 90% how i want mine to look. LOVE IT! :bow::bow::bow:

Does look very clean. Do you want a TT front bumper??:thumbup1:

Weston performance went bump. It then turned into Weston Motorsport, then Weston speedshop! Who was the gaffa? Paul? Greg Gush, who basicly was Weston performance, left this year and set up on his own, near Reddich. Haven't been to Weston since then. I know Paul quite well, i priced an extention on his house. he lives round the corner.

Who does the Dyno there now? Fancy getting a rollong road day sorted there?? I rekon i could get us a big discount!!

Is there a "how to" guide to removing all those? Cheers Got turbo elbows..

So what did it make?

I was going to start a thread asking what i could remove...

Thanks, but its not my house! Its my parents. I keep most my stuff there!

Dont know who does the dyno there now Greg has set up on his own. Will be nice to see the results, may even pop round..

Thanks for the kind words fellas. Im in no rush to get it done, i'll just take my time and get it done right. Cheers

Now ive got my breaker out of the way, i started on the red zed this week. Well, the story so far.... I bought it from a fella member on here, and its had other owners on here too. The engine and turbos were shot. It looked near mint in the advert, but when i went to see it i was disapointed. It had had a full respray, but in real life, its not very good:hammer: Other parts of the car made me walk away. I couldn't stop thinking about it tho, so a few days later, something told me to buy it, so i did. I thought it had some good bits on it, but after i got it home, it all seemed a bit like i'd done the wrong thing. The wheels on closer inspection, look like they have been painted with a brush! i dont like how the spoiler sits, and the all singing all dancing alarm was a £30 ebay jobbie! I dont want to sell it, and i fancied a project anyway, just didn't think my plans would evolve how they have! Right, thats the end of the moaning, now the project!! First things first, get the engine and turbos changed. I bought a pair of second hand turbos i found on ebay. Recently rebuilt, and a steal i thought at £200. Next the engine, i bought one and hired a hoist to collect it. It must weight 3 tonne! Took 3 of us to get it in the van! On to monday... Im no mechanic (although i try) so i roped my mate in to helping me (he called in sick at work, good man!) Had some bits to get off the breaker first to get it out the garage. That took a lot longer than expected, so didn't get to the red one until dark. Thought we'd just get it in the garage ready for the next morning. Wouldn't start!! Put it doen the the alarm fob palying up. My mate completly stripped the alarm and i still wouldn't start. It was low on fuel, so a jeery can later, still nothing! maybe the dead engine (that did drive, just smoked a misfired) has given up. Sod it, its cold, call it a day. Tuesday. Get the car from the back of the house to the front. In the snow! Hooked the van up to a bit of rope, and pulled it round (slipping and sliding!) In the garage (had to build a ramp to push it up!) Start stripping The new engine.. Hours later, front bumper and everyting off to get the hoist closer... What a job!!! Ended up taking the hole exhaust off, prop, gearbox, rad, everything. Is there an easier way?? To my horror, i found it had NO air filter, no even an air box, maybe why it blew up! Thats how it is now. Plans.... Scarab front bumper Car.mad smooth side skirts Standard 89 spec spoiler Standard headlight gril panel Air filter!! Full PROPER respray (maybe white...) Mot Tax Insurnace..... and then Enjoy! Sorry if i waffeled on, just thought i'd share my first real peice of zed ownership. Any tip, help is welcome as to getting the engine back in!!:tank:

Weston performance??

Quality!
