Degunk fluid to add to old oil prior to oil change
You can get these bottle of stuff that you put in the oil prior to an oil change, run the engine for 5 mins then turn of and do the oil change with a lot more gunk coming out. Are these degunk things worthwhile. I ask as i have waited to long for an oil change and i will do one tonight but i would like to get as much crap out as possible.

Speed dating, anyone been???
Gagh i never meet women through other friends, it becomes so contrived - what job has he got, car, blah blah. Student days were simplier all you had then was £10 and your personality. I much prefer meeting women from the net with a blank page. Chat on messenger for 2 weeks to a month then meet.

Tyres - Again
I got some Falken 451 245\45 16 ZR-Y tyres two weeks ago for £75 each. I went for the 451's as they are supposed to be better in the wet. And they seem better too. Now rather than the front wheels just totaly loosing grip in the wet they do it a later with some warning.

Camber Again!!!!
Note of caution: If your ride gets -really- bumpy after 55mph it could mean your tyres are warped. Happened to my front tyres as they had really uneven wear - totaly worn and worse on the inside and fine on teh outside.

pirate copies
The bizarre thing is that for reliability the cheap console game is 100%. But some business software that costs thousands is a bag of poo. We have this software that costs £1800 per PC that is suppoed to arrange different shapes in a 'nest' so our waterjet cutter machine can get best yield from a plate of titanium. And this Flow-master software is a total load of crap x 10. latest version still looks like a windows 3.1 application and crashes all the time. Damn you Flow Corp i will get my evil on you!

When a zed plays up it can really stress you out. But after a break working on the zed, cast a look at it and i think most zedders know its worth it :)

Is this a Club?
Just because someone gets really angry cos there car seems to have had bad servicing it does not mean at all the club is going to pot. I love these forums and the club and will continue to do so. Unless most of the club bears arms about something i myself will refrain from intellectual masturbation :)

Shock Absorbers
If you fit shock absorbers that lower your car you will need adjustable front upper suspension links. Zcentre do them for about £200. Or ive read you can use spacers but id go for the adjustable links.

Tuning zed TT on the fly with Conzult
Ive read that you can remap the ECU with Conzult whilst the engine is on, you loose settings when you turn it off. Is this straight forward to do and can peeps suggest settings perhaps?

ZOMG! my zed's ride is now sorted
I have got it booked in with Zedworld in late June to sort alignment exactly, hence why i had a go myself now. And tomorrow i will have a look at rear camber which i belive i can set without extra gubbings as i have a TT.
