Ahh the snapped bolt fun I had on my build - I wish you luck with that

It's all well and good having the button Andy - but you must remember to - PRESS IT!!! Looks good though

Firstly you don't use the 2.6" you already have Secondly - not many cosmetic surgeons doing either A. The impossible B. Black Friday Discounts

OK then - Silly season has started I see

along Great project great charity Q1) What is a sensible power figure to achieve from the NA engine (i.e. without adding SC or turbo)? Endurance racing is first and foremost about reliability so keeping the car normally aspirated would be a good step in this direction. On a VQ35DE as Dan (sorry Ekona) said without cams porting etc probably 310 if you get a good one to start. Q2) What sort of weight figure is achievable? The car would be pared back to nothing - all interior and sound deadening gone, a single light carbon racing seat installed, multi point FIA welded cage, all aircon out, all non-necessary electrics out, all glass bar the screen replaced with lexan, possibly light weight composite panels etc. Speak to Jez at Horsham Developments he not only did this but has all the weights as he went - you can loose around 200 - 250KG but you can also make the Zed nose heavy - however if you are putting a cage in you put back on what you save but re-balance the car. Q3) Electrics - obviously with the airbags, stereo, a/c etc all taken out this can mess with a modern car's ECU. Has anyone had any experience of this? Would a bespoke loom be required or could we delicately hack away at the existing loom? Obviously don't want to end up with a dash full of lights or, even worse, running issues. Yup it is a CAN bus system - you can if careful remove lots of bits but you will get silly results - like take out the aircon controls the fan stays on flat out - remove the fan However if you are going for power you will need ECU work and the best option for cost would be an uprev - that will allow you to disable a lot of the warnings associated with de-cats and wiring removal. If you want traction control (proper traction control) you want a syvecs S6 which will also allow you to get rid of the faults. Q4) Catalytic Converters & exhaust - these cars will be pure race cars and not road registered. Does removing the cats cause issues with back pressure or are they easy to just bin? We need the cars to be below 105dB at 3/4 revs, that's the only consideration. They can go - the map will take care of the rest. Noise will not be an issue on a standard zorst - plenty of aftermarket options that will pass scrutineering Q5) Suspension & dampers - is there a proven race package available? Interested to know if anyone sells kits. Also worth a look are tein - I think Clarke Motorsport do a nice setup. Hope it helps

Number of customers in queue ahead of you: 39607 You can access the website in: 5 minutes Status last updated: 21:30:47 And I have no interest at all

I have duff engines Sorry to see the windscreen bummer Nice to see you cracking on though

Just thought I'd have a look to see how long it is. 187,790 ahead of me, ....40 minute wait. Glad I don't actually want to see their site. Hang on I'm in front less people and my wait is longer

46 mins and 187013 in front of me - and i only went to see what 14N was on about

Let me check on it's condition and get back toy you @Humpy - no this was under that cat basket

Where you based? Think I have one out back

I've seen Azure zed's come out of the factory with panels that don't match as well as her's - don't know what she is complaining about

Enjoy the drive back

I quite agree When you find out do let me know

Of course if your doing the engine, the clutch and the flywheel then may as well get a forged build done ready for the super charger which you will inevitably want later and they also make a HUGE difference on these cars. Might want to also consider - Suspension Brakes Fuel system Tires Wheels interior a body kit stubby - don't forget the stubby Just thought I'd assist in a. Lightening the mood b. Spending the OP's money c. Fueling another case of Zeditis

IBTL I will keep my thoughts on the matter to myself as there are 2 sides to every story and we only know 1 - this could be anything from getting had over on a purchase to pure bad luck as it was gonna go pop whoever was driving it at this time. with an unknown number of other possibilities in the middle! So I will just say good luck to nels0n in finding the best and cheapest means to a satisfactory resolution

To be completely honest the boobs are better but it's not the worst thing I've ever seen and kudos for being original and trying something new.

3 pages of nothing so far EDIT : Actually the boobs nearly made it worth reading

What he said - spacers should do the job as well though

370 is key-less start Auto box - Hmm mixed reviews most on here seem to like it though - Get a manual anyway post 2010 premium connect sat nav and audio is very good (IMO) Now stop looking at them German cars and get a 370 Enjoy the hunt - you can only spend it once

That is a lot of effort for a badge Looks good though mate (sorry I couldn't find the old cover I had laying around )

Along Ref 3 - The Haltech - I had the Haltech piggy back on my SC Zed - if the stock ECU throws a CEL the Haltech won't stop it, I used to get the lamda sensor warning due to the SC and De- Cats I had an uprev license put on the stock ECU this allowed us to disable the warnings and remove the 155mph speed limiter. Hope it helps

along

Many Happy Returns buddy

and congrats
