Make my zed look better
You never know, I might stand a chance in car of the month one time. I don't even know if I could take the lettering off. I can always redo it if I can

Thanks Si, I'm running out of things to do though. It will be lovely once the retrimmed bits go back in and the other little bodywork bits are sorted.

Yeah, I was debating on straying those too, but I didn't know how to take them off... I may spray them on the car one day though. I just finished the last coat on the passenger side mirror

Thanks for the comments Richie. I know what I you (and others) mean about them but for some reason I really like it. I'll maybe wash it off at some point to see what I think. I need to have some cheesiness on it though lol

It's mainly the wing mirror plates I'm not too sure on

Will see what's in the shed - - - Updated - - - Anyone got ideas about the mirror plates and window trim?

Clutch
I loved the rps street max. Needs a new friction plate or whatever it is. I currently use a southbend clutch and that's really nice to use as well.

Should I look to paint the wing mirror backing plates and / or the trims at the bottom of the windscreens? I'm thinking Satin black the same as what I did the Tash. Be great to know what people think as I'm undecided - - - Updated - - - Pete, I haven't got a clue, I just know they look a little out

Thanks Eggs. I'm trying to get all the stuff I can do myself done first really but it's on the cards whenever I can buy the Front upper camber things from Z1

What did you do to your zed today?
Blooming lovely sight lol

What did you do to your zed today?
Well adter cleaning it and fixing the boost controller wiring yesterday, the car decided, at 3am to wake up the full street randomly. It wasn't the alarm going off, but rather a constant horn noise. It was ridiculously loud and loads louder than the horn normally is. I'm guessing it was the deeper of the 2 but that hasn't worked for ages. In fact the front snail looking bit isn't even on it. Couldn't get it to stop so I had to pull the battery in the middle of the night. Was very strange.

Well, I was bored as today. Absolutely nothing to do and I'm running out of stuff to do on my car. So, I fixed the wiring to the boost controllers solenoid, new wiring plug on etc. then I had a go at using a clay bar as there's a few tiny dots in the paintwork. Not sure if I did it right though as they're still there. Anyway, that being said I do think I got the car really quite clean and have used some G3 scratch remover (not the paste). So I'll have to get some polish now to really seal it - Heres some pictures as ever, hopefully showing how clean it is...

Pmsl. I have some random shim things I the shed I think. Not sure what they are like
-
Suspension Parts and opinions
Do you run the Z1 bits Si
-
Suspension Parts and opinions
To be honest. I'd really like to keep a nice ride if possible. It doesn't really get used on a track and if it does, it'll only be on the odd occasion
-
Suspension Parts and opinions
Everyone knows I don't like parting with cash lol. Flying - si had recommended the Z1 upper control arms. And they look great but generally the shipping costs will be silly so wondering what I could find in the UK that people like
-
Suspension Parts and opinions
Depends on how much I kind find the bits for I guess... But, I'm still cheap as fook. I'm just trying to get the stance right really. Finally (after 4 years) fitted the spacers to the front wheels

So, in short I have MeisterR Zeta S coilovers. In turn this has messed with the camber a little and the wheels are further in at the top. So, what I need to know is what components I actually need to buy/search for. Also, what brands people feel are safe bets for quality are performance. Many thanks, Lee
