G1en Posted April 8 Author Share Posted April 8 If anybody wants to watch 50 minutes of me waffling on, moaning about tyres whilst trying to go fast, then sit back and make a brew. Latest video from Anglesey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmic73 Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Hey Glen, what a great post, your Z is punching well above it's weight. My gearbox crunches in 5th so I'm going to replace it's synchro ring when I get the time. Did you fix your gearbox yourself or send it to a specialist?

G1en Posted April 10 Author Share Posted April 10 Horsham Developments did the strip down and rebuild. Think It was £1000 then whatever replacement parts needed on top. So you will save a lot doing it yourself if you can, what i will add is i can easily tell that 3rd and 6th synchro have been done as goes into those gears so easily now, just wish i would have maybe had the whole lot replaced as others are noticeably a little bit worn (but still ok) they did say its getting harder and harder to get gearbox parts now as the car gets older and i think they may have stopped producing any new synchros.

Cheers Glen, £1000 + parts is a lot. The good news is my day job is designing gearboxes so I'm reasonably confident I can do the repairs myself. Just need to find the parts!

G1en Posted May 12 Author Share Posted May 12 Took a family trip to Newby Hall Sports cars in the park event last Sunday, seems to get bigger every year. A 2 hour long tailback just to get in is testament to how many people go now. decent weather as well. Only took a few pics but gives you a sense of what's on show. Did spot a few Zeds together just as we were leaving but unfortunately was being pestered to get out by the family... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but not wanting to detract from his obvious good driving skills he is an incredibly wealthy chap with an almost limitless budget to fine tune the 2 EVOs he owns.
