  1. Thanks I did find that before posting on here but was hoping to find just the handle
  2. Good evening, I'm looking for a bonnet release handle found inside the car, I don't need the cable just the actual bonnet pull handle. Please let me know if you have a good condition one for sale.
  3. I had this issue for a few years on MI e and it is very unsettling. Mine was always on a right hand corner and it was one of the wheels on the left braking. I fitted new tyres last year but even after months of wearing them in it still happens. This year I changed the fronts as I find Falkens loose alot of their grip once half worn. At the same time I had four wheel alignment done. My alignment was well out but since then not had the issue even on track. I would suggest doing alignment if that doesn't work try changing the front tyres to the same as the rear.Good luck.
  4. Cheers Dan, this is turning into a ball ake, so we need two stickers for Germany, pay road tax in Switzerland and we have to buy something else in Slovenia. Should be worth all the hastle tho.
  5. Yeh were staying at Frankfurt the first night which is a green zone. And the fine is 80 euros per car, as there is four cars going I ideally want to get the stickers sorted.
  6. Hey guys I'm doing a European trip this year and have found out that I need to get a green zone sticker for Germany aka Plakette. I am panicking abit as I expect the zed isn't the greatest car for emmitions. Has anyone on here managed to get one for there zed? Any advice on the easiest way to get this sticker would be great aswell. Thanks.
  7. I couldn't drive it anyway, I need autos remember.
  8. Yeh mate managed to get in, just said my printer had broken this morning lol. Did anyone get some pictures. Your car looked awsome James I want it.
  9. Il see you guys at My donalds, unfortunately I don't have a pass as I left it last minute.
  10. I too at some point want to do an NA build, I was talking to the guy in America who now has the engine out of the red zed that made 420bhp. He has the engine now but without the ITB's but he is still making alot of power with a custom inlet. He has put on a 3" throttle body and increased the inlet size on the standard plenum. If I do end up doing it, I will be looking to do ITB's, manifolds, cams, bigger valves and inlet changes. I would also forge the bottom end with high compression pistons.
  11. Jasper's stuff is crap and falls apart go for Berks. I had a bad experience using crapspeed parts two sets of decays that both fell apart after 2K miles.

    Lets talk seats

    Cheers Steve, I have found a slightly skinnier seat to the one I showed you but I just don't like it as much so I am hoping I can squeeze them in.

    Lets talk seats

    These are the M2 subframes that are meant to be a copy of the buddy clubs.http://www.sportseats4u.co.uk/index.php?_a=viewProd&productId=3629
  14. Ok so I am looking into getting some seats and harnesses and it would be great if I could get some advise from guys who have already done them. Ok so Subframes stevo has advised me to go for buddy club ones, but another mate has said M2 Subframes are the same as buddy clubs but carseats4u's own brand. Now seats is where I am starting to get stuck, the ones I want are 94cm tall, 51cm wide at the base and 60cm wide at the shoulders I need to know if they will fit before ordering them. If anyone with seats could give me some measurements to help it would really help. Thank you in advance guys.
  15. Thanks for your reply alex, your a star
  16. I've just bought a polished plenum but was wondering if there was a gasket in between the plenum and throttle body, if anyone who has changed there's and could let me know that would be great. If I do need one where would be the best place to get one aswell?
  17. Keep us updated dude I want to know if it's my front tyres
  18. Stupid auto correct on the phone lol Yeh I meet Falkens.
  19. I have changed the steering wheel a year ago but only recently the issue started. I'm now running 265/35/19 rears with Fallen FK453's and fronts are 235/35/19 Fallen FK452's I think it's going to be a group effort of trying things and see what works really. Matt I think yours could be down to your bald front tyres and I'm starting to think that also could be my issue I have loads of tread left on the fronts but I have found the Fallen grip level drops quite abit once semi warn.
  20. Right little update so I had my new tyres fitted a few weeks now there definitely bedded in and I am still having this issue. Any one have any more ideas I'm going to try and reset the ect today to see if that clears it but then after that I'm stumped. Spoke to Grundy yesterday and he also is having the same issue, we both seem to get it worse on bumpy ground so I believe it is to do with the stability control. I don't know weather the car has always had this problem but I haven't been driving it hard enough or weather I am now just driving the car on the edge of its limits and the system keeps kicking in.
  21. Awsome project mate well done, I love the new front end I have always wanted to update my front end.
  22. No I'm literally on the limit with running the spacers, any wider and the tyres would be too far out the arch and it wouldn't be legal.
  23. So on the rears I am now running 265/35/19s with 20mm hub-centric spacers, the arches have been rolled but they currently rub so I'm thinking about doing a slight pull on the arch. I've taken multiple pictures at different angles for everyone's reference incase anyone else wants to see how they fit. The fronts I am running 235/35/19s with no spacers or arch work done
  24. After playing around with the suspension me and a mate decided to go for a drive to Somerset to try out our new set ups, I'm amazed how different the car now feels for tweeting the set up and going up a Tyre size on the rear.
