^ found 2 faults so far... "side lights/headlights on" light/LED not working and second half of the speedo is not very bright even tho all LEDs are on. Will investigate :)

 

 

Next thing to change gear shaft (as it snapped as per my other thread) and hoover inside of the car :lol:

Very nice. :)

 

Have you got one of those D loops in your Zed's boot then Vlad?

It's a good idea if you haven't as it means you can padlock the steering wheel to it and leave it in the boot of the car when you go shopping or whatever. ;)

 

Can't find an image to show you but basically just a welded loop of metal in the boot which you can then padlock your steering wheel to.

Was about to change my short shifter to OEM one after it snapped.... but came up with great idea... still plenty of metal left - so made up new thread on the stick and its old good :)

Little update

 

It was time to upgrade brakes slightly...

Bought a set of discs off Keyser, set of yellow stuff pads from Cougar Store and Motul 660 RBF off Clark Motorsport

Fitted Fronts no problem

Rears wasn't as easy as 2 nuts on rear drivers side wheel spacer rounded off...

so men's best friend came to the rescue...

Grinded off some of spacer around 2 rounded nuts to give more access for a size smaller socket...

Also accidentally popped piston out of rear caliper (passenger side)... So thought it was good time to replace seals at same time...

Ordered new spacer and seal kit off Clark Motorsport

New seals fitted, brakes fitted, new fluid is in, spacer on, HAPPY DAYS :)

 

Got some new wheel nuts as well

Then decided to change my vortech filter.... really like the look of HKS mushroom filters... but SC diameter is 90mm and HKS only do 80mm or 100mm.... then Darren suggested buying cheaper filter (same style as HKS) and just replacing foam as original foam it comes with is pretty crap.

So bought one of them Ash Performance filters, some RamAir replacement foam, took it apart, cut out new foam, refitted...and yes, HAPPY DAYS :D
