Dodgy Jumping from side to side over bumps
I didnt read it properly either, unless it was a hard knock i doubt youd of knackered a shock, i reckon you must of bent or broke something, if you jack it up and give the wheel a wiggle you should find some movement, if not it might be a case of compaing it with the good side. Good luck

Another question!

Z-weather hits Scotland.
I had to keep my speed up on the way back from mattys today as it started raining when my roof was off, stay over 50 and the rain doesnt come in, made putting it in the garage when i got home tricky though!!! Off topic a bit i know. But if ive got the roof off i leave the temp on 10 with no aircon demister etc.

Another question!
Theyve all got a good 90deg of turn in them, so i reckon its just paranoia, that plus driving with the roof off makes it sound louder and ive spent the last fortnight pottering about in a rover!! Jeff on the subject of belts, how much can you get me a set for (not the cambelt, im not brave enough for that!!) just the other 3, im sure you can source them at a better price than nissan, and my work dont do em i dont think. Cheers

Another question!
Doh, i will re check them, could just be me being paranoid though! i can twist them 90deg but only just.

Another question!
Would it cause more noise in that area????

Dodgy Jumping from side to side over bumps
Rear Shox is the likeley culpret, having said that on my mot the guy pointed out a little play in one of the rear wheels, its the top bush directly behind the wheel. Didnt notice anything till he pointed it out, now i can somehow feel it!:confused:

Another question!
Can you over tighten/tension the aux belts?? Ive tesioned them all so you can give em half a twist, but im sure theyre making more noise than before, not a worrying noise just sounds very windy under there, or will the quieten down in a bit or am i being paranoid again?

Timing Belt Changing

Where are you Matty, are you in Brum? If you like i can pop over and have a look.And check out this new zed of yours. One other thought, knackered rad cap may make the overflow overflow.

Sailed through the MOT
Greaves and Ellis, Hinckley,. So probably a bit far for you to save any money.Open 7 days a week too!!! The only thing he picked up was that theres a bit of lay in the nearside rear wheel, says its the top bush??? That might be my next project then!!!
-
Right who has the largest?
Well ive only got 14 inches in my bedroom, any woman that says 14 inches isnt big enough in the bedroom is a liar!!!
-
Knob size !!
What a thread!! Now come on Nelson this isnt about knob size is it???? Its allabout MASS isnt it??? Youre going to tell us that your zed is faster because of your reduced "mass"!!!!:D :D :D Or have you had it surgicaly removed to save weight???;) ;) Chopping a few inches off has got to be worth half a second on 0 to 60 times (well, it would be if its as wide as mine!!!!)

Something about zeds and radar detectors
ive got an cheap, snooper £99 at halfords one ( i got it for £20 from a man in a van, so im not complaining!) but it goes off for anything, good thing is you know youre approaching a traffic light from 500 yards away. The only one time it has ever done me any good was on the way to one of the slogh meets on the M40, i was doing about a ton and it started beeping, i thought it was a bit unusual for it to beep at all on a motorway so i kerbed my speed, next bridge had coppers on it with their zapper in hand. So its earned its £20 id say, plus they look the part in a zed!

Sailed through the MOT
Well chuffed, the car flew throgh its MOT this morning, the only thing they had to alter was the headlight allignment as they were too low!! and i put them down for the mot as i normally have em pointing high!!!! £3 a side they charge for that!!! £6 for two turns of a 10mm spanner, now thats easy money!!!! Still the MOT was only £20 so £26 all in is a fookin bargain. Right, time to put my illeagal plate back on!!!
