carrera 2 / carrera 4
Old git, all this talk of porsches!! did you ever have one of the older ones? You are right about the 3.3 turbo, one hell of a car. Use to have one a few years back and the power was brutal and also potentially lethal if you didnt respect it. No ABS, no power steering, no traction and wads of turbo lag. Anyway a picture of me old turbo, looked good for a 81 vintage :cool:

carrera 2 / carrera 4

999 this morning!
Take some anti-inflammatories, either tabs or gel as its absorbed quite well. Also take paracetamol in addition and take regular dosage as opposed to when you need it. You might get some odd tingling down your arms as you may have irritated some nerves in your cervical(neck) spine. If you are concerned or still having blackouts get it seen to as someone has wisely mentioned. ronnie

Headlights - Chrome or HID
Have to agree with the above, HIDs make a huge difference. Got them on my Z and are pretty good. Last weekend took my headlights apart and applied some chrome film (from homebase) to the inserts. Initially thought about painting them but was dubious about the result, obviously getting them vacum chromed would of been the best option but went with the film. Was a bugger of a job to get right but with a bit of patience the end results were not too bad. Quite pleased with me lights now :cool:

Doing a few jobs today and one was to change my steering wheel. Now have managed to get the 19mm socket off with a bit off force but for the life of me cant get the wheel off. :headvswal As far as I can see there is nothing else holding it in. Any tips would be appreciated. cheers ronnie

Which zed specialist...
When I had my first zed I took it down to Hiteq in Wigan. Took a couple of hours from Fife. They did a full 60k service and fitted exhaust. Seemed to know their stuff. ronnie
