The motor on the right did have the wheels on the wrong way round if thats what you mean. It didn't half handle funny :) My cars (KKO 1V) got the big ones on the back. Craig

Hi JR I'm on the east coast just north of Dundee my mates TT UK may be up for sale it's needing a few things to finish it for the MOT. It's the one on the right in the pic below. I had an RS500 as well the Zed is a far better car I think handles alot better and "Doesn't try to kill you all the time" Craig

somethin loose?
Mine does the same. Sounds serious but found it happens when tapping the CATs, internals must be loose.. "Never mind there going in the bin as soon as I get time" :)

Just the floor to do!.................
Hi Leigh Get a mini digger if you get one the cab comes off it will fit under your up and over door. Just get a hang of driving it before hand as it's mighty easy to wreck things with it.. My pit's only 600mm deep but mega wide as the car sits on the ramp and not the floor beside it. Dig yer pit then lay concerete base and build yer blockes onto it. Mind and build a step to get in and out quickly as petrol vapour and most gasses are heavier than air guess where there gona end up. Another tip check for gas and water pipes before you go mental with a digger :) Craig

Your place look far to tidy have you started taking things to bits in it yet? :). My pits only 600mm deep so you only need the motor as high as it is in the pic to stand under it, couldn't lift the roof as it would "block the neighbours living room sunlight" according to him. He was well funny when I added the side up and over for the ramp access.

Brakes feel bad!
Hi Jeff Not quite sure what you mean here and don't wana start another fight over petty stuff. Pushing the pistons back in a timely fashion shouldn't affect the master cylinder seals at all ( if you are able to return the wheel cylinders at a speed to cause this "I'm not gonna mess with ya as you must be built like a house:) ) the fluid will simply bypass the seal and fill the master cylinder res unit. Unless the pedal is being pushed at the time of course. It's gen the first .5mm that closes this off . Both rear brake calipers are on the same circuit with a "T" piece check the manual. Zed has a mental brake system as it's all driven from the off side rear ABS unit apart from the drivers master cylinder of course. But it stops :) Craig Look forward to further comments

Seen this?
