can we build a datascan software figure database
I guess we also need to distinguish the differing figures for both NA and TT as well. (Assuming they'll be different)

Steering shakey at around 60 (not balance)
When the gearbox mount gives in, it causes vibration at speed. Generally you feel it through the seat first, not the steering wheel though.

nice n easy question?
True, TT discs will fit, if you fancy changing the calipers as well. If you want 26mm discs though, MJP rules :dance:. Was your car mis-registered as a 93 then?
-
nice n easy question?
As mentioned, It's best to measure the width of the discs you already have up front. My N/A is in the crossover (April 92) and it still has the 26mm discs, so TT discs wouldn't fit.

Cheers for that. Got one when i was over there getting some sarnies. Bar Hill Tesco had them labeled on the shelf as 19p. Bargain.

Other car forums.....
To be honest, it's not just the Car forums. There's a lot of forums that suffer from this. Try asking for anything on http://www.neo-geo.com. I'm ashamed to be on there sometimes. The new members often get ignored, or they get a tirade of abuse if they ask a question that was once answered 4 years ago. A lot of forums (including neo-geo.com) seem to have a bit of an eliteist attitude. Of the forums i registered to, this is definitely the friendliest one.

How long have you owned your current Z?
I think it'll be 4 years next month. Haven't done half as many miles as i should have done.

fiesta zetec s 1.6 - anybody had 1?
I had a 51 Zetec S for about 18 months. Great fun in the corners, but acceleration seems to die once you get to about 50. From what i remember it had a two issues. Thermostat failed so engine overheated. Got to the garage in limp mode. Distributor failed, causing it to fire on three. Again, limp mode to garage. Looking on the net, they were reasonably common faults, and they weren't expensive to fix. Other than that, had the usual Ford rattles and squeeks.

Performing Rights Society....
My employer had to pay just over a hundred notes to the PRS just for me to listen to the radio in my office at work. Kinda feels like legitimate scamming (if there is such a thing) if you ask me.

Shinedown - The Sound of Madness
Second chance is a great track. Saw them at Download earlier this year and they were very good. They do a great cover of Simple Man by Lynyrd Skynyrd as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TUCewbAhOY

need network help badly
I had a similar problem connecting with my mates on Live. I got around this issue by giving my XBOX a fixd IP address, then entering this address into the DMZ section of my Router settings. This basically lets the XBOX bypass the firewall. I would suggest you try that, and get your brothers to do the same. The address 192.168.1.1 is the address for your router gateway on your network, not the XBOX. Most router manufacturers use this address for admin etc.

Is this the right PTU kit
Don't forget to add import duty and VAT on top of that price.

Recurring Blue Screen Error Message on my PC :(
I had continuos blue screens like that once. Turned out to be bad/incompatible RAM. If you've got two sticks of RAM, try taking one out or alternating between the two.
