Duff gauge sounds most likely then?

Glad to hear all the positive feedback on the 313. For a while I thought I was going mad as when ive mentioned that my zed has been as quick "on the road" from 30mph upwards with a couple of other cars such as an audi tt rs, a bmw 335i or even a z4m, ive had people say "oh they cant have been trying" - when on paper theres very little difference in performance and even less difference on the road. I think a lot of people on here have only had experience of the older 276bhp zeds which are a totally different kettle of fish. Not wanting to rain on your parade stew, but the consensus seems to be that the way the later models drive is nicer and the interior is more refined but in terms of direct speed there is not a lot in it from those with a considered view of the issue.

What camera is this? Yep, what make and model are we talking about here?

What in car cameras are people using. I would like something that fits nicely with the zed, produces decent quality video and does not cost a lot. No need for massive video length. Any suggestions? Cheers Shinjuku

The bit where they are going at each other in the passenger seat is a bit upsetting though. Just think of the cleaning bill...

Thanks for the replies all. Very interesting. I have a 276 model so im quite pleased that there is not a lot in it in performance terms. Seems to be the forum wisdom that an uprev remap is worth doing. Am I right in thinking that makes the car more free reving and akin to its 313 cousin?

Do you know what weight of oil is in there?

How much is there between the least and most powerful cars in a straight line or around a track. Is the difference negligible or notable? Shinjuku

About 8.5 k. On the other question look at the buyers guide.

Bump for this one. And where is the guide for restoring alezan leather seats (thus ensuring a further bump!)?

Wash your mouth out right now Steve Just search for 'spursmaddave' + 'knob' Lol. Lots of results there! I also did a wider "google image" search - that returned some disturbing results :!:

Thanks all. Have bought the beast and will fit it today. Dont you have an auto though dave? :(

Thanks all. How much would be needed of this?

Is that what you use Dave?

Interestingly, I did search, but no joy. Good work Magneto, I will prevail now for sure. Thanks for your response too Dave. Thanks Shinjuku

Not many and I'm a novice. Road tyres. Brembo calipers, standard discs and pads.

I have a replacement pedal in my hand. I've been told changing it over is a 5 min job and I just have to unscrew something or other. However, I'm not technical and would prefer someone to tell me broadly how to do it rather than me just get in there and end up buggering it up. So - how do I do it. Cheers Shinjuku

Is recommended for road use with the occasional track day. How much should I expect to pay? Cheers Shinjuku

Those who have seen this will know its condition and likely value.

For something thats not rot they are between 1.5 and 3 grand

Realistically you will probably get a turd of a zed for five k. Better saving another couple of grand I would say.

Fifty quid is quite a lot if its the same size pedal. I suppose the bit on the left would be good in the sense that it would mean I did not have to stretch as far round. Chris can you put up a link to the item. Yankee any chance of a picture of your handywork

Thanks neil.

The length of the accelerator pedal on the zed means that my efforts to heel and toe often turn out to be more ball of foot (which is right I guess) and side of foot just in front of heel. Because of this I also find I need to turn my foot slightly more than I would like. So im considering replacing the accelerator pedal. However im not sure which to get and even if its possible to change the pedal - would a longer pedal bind on the floor or mean I cant get full throttle opening? So, if one of the more experienced track folk could advise on whether there is a particular pedal that works well that would be great. Cheers Shinjuku

As long as you get the revs right and dont strain the transmission massively its fine.
