    Bleeding Brakes

    Give the nipples a squirt with wd40 a while before you do them, brembo's are well known for snapping the bleed nipples when trying to undo them
  2. Low mileage or not, the oem pads are known to break up with age, any scoring on the discs ?
  3. nice zed and too damp to even polish never mind clay bar
  4. I'd just like to say i have had silkolene pro s oil off opieoils and i found it to give a smoother tick over, quieter engine and cleaner revving this is with a popcharger and aftermarket exhaust ps. excellent service, fast delivery
  5. nice celica, i've had 2 ...excellent build quality, i ran one from 18k miles to 138k and apart from the usual brakes and tyres it needed a battery !! same clutch, exhaust etc
  6. i would put a multi tester on it before plugging anything into it
  7. http://www.aclassinfo.co.uk/mypage.100.htm 15 -20 is just nipped up, slightly more than hand tight i've got a few torque wrenches, got one from screwfix that works for lower settings
  8. Cant you just convert the settings ? thats what i do, from imperial to metric
  9. i changed my nissan burgers for the Z badges and i can see people in the rear view mirror making the shape of the Z with their hands
  10. read somewhere he is trying to cover up a receeding hairline
  11. The standard pads on our Zeds are made by Ferodo, so I’m led to believe, it’s only the caliper and other working parts that are Brembo, not the pads and discs… Thats right Thanks for confirming bud… BTW, re: our conversation yesterday, waiting on prices for the DS2500 pads… Once with me, I'll send a PM your way... cheers ps. just a word of warning about the oem ferodo's, we have had quite a few instances of them breaking down with age, literally chunks coming lose, although they look to have plenty of meat on them it can be deceiving, until you take them out i changed mine at 20k miles and they looked good on a visual inspection until they were removed

  13. ... and have to tell your family in the morning that you might not be back alive in the evening! lifes a risk
  14. total class those were the days when you could stand where you liked instead of in a designated pig pen like they do now
  15. I dont see many zeds around there, i often go to sainsburys in kidlington, i work in bicester but stay in bletchingdon never seen another when i've been in my zed
  16. Make sure you use locktight on the nuts holding the spacers on. red or blue ? it would be good if someone could give a torque setting for these Blue and I cracked then up to 75 ft lb good info rev
