  1. Evening all,

     

    I would love a set of the orange seats for my zed, getting bit fed up of the all black interior.

     

    I have a van big enough to get the seats in, dont mind travelling with 100 miles of Leicester. If its any further I would be interested if they were in great condition.

     

    Happy to pay cash on collection :)

     

    Anyone know of any going drop us a pm please!

     

    Cheers :)

  2. Evening all,

     

    Ive just had a read through the front brake pad guide and although ive never done them on the zed before ive always done them on previous cars but not on brembos. but am going to tackle them over the holidays!

     

    Is there a guide for the rear brakes (brembos preferably)?

     

     

    Also has anyone had much experience with EBC pads, I was thinking of going for yellowstuff but must admit all ive used on other cars is either greenstuff or mintex. Any thoughts on them?

     

    Also is it worth changing the discs my rears look a bit ropey to be fair, or just give them a good clean up and sand the faces down abit. If it is worth changing the discs I do like the look of the black diamond ones. Do they actually stay black in colour or do they tend to go shiney after a while? again any thoughts most appreciated :)

     

    The cars 10 years old, done 24k miles on original pads and discs (I believe), it looks as if theres still life in the pads but the brakes dont seem to stop ever so quick compared to my previous car now so I think some intervention is needed!

     

    Rear discs:

  3. Evening all,

     

    I have just fitted a plenum spacer and all went well.

     

    I forgot to plug the maf sensor in and started the car, it ran lumpy and the engine light came on so I switched off and realised I forgot the maf.

     

    Plugged it back in runs smooth again but still got the engine light on, any way to reset this?

     

    Cheees :)

     

     

  4. as daft as it sounds my gear knob is completely stuck on..

     

    anyone got any tips in removing it without snapping the gear leaver off? ive done a quick forum search but surprisingly couldnt find anything dont suppose anyone has had this major problem before LOL

  5. Big thanks to Almeida for selling this to me, in superb condition and lovely and shiny. Thanks mate.

     

    It must make such a big difference once accompanied by HFCs and a remap, the stock exhaust is so small and so badly designed and restrictive let alone smaller and only single pipe!

     

    Here are a few pics fitted and a short vid, it pops and makes looovely noises and thats without the berk HFCs fitted, cant wait to get them on to see if the tone changes much... enjoy all
