Fiddle it! Be a good day mate. We'll come to you and cruise on down!

My mate Paul's coming who met you at donny.

Davejue1

A Rare sight indeed. Your a lucky fellow. The Healey looks stunning.

Davejue1

Wow! That's what you call digging up the past!

Your not that old Pete! Are you going on the Duxford run on may 3rd? Thought that would be one for you.

Brian your back! Me to mate. You need to organise one of your superb cruises! Are you doing Duxford? We could organise a run down?

Davejue1

Lol! Thanks Paul. Won't be long now fella

Many happy returns to you and hope you have a nice birthday.

Pleased I made you smile mate, yes 43 today. Still they say it's how you feel inside and I don't feel 43 so that'll do for me!

Davejue1

forget about the specified volumes, which vary a lot - the diff volume depends on which final drive gear set you have, if it has an LSD, and if it is a clutchpack or Torsen LSD too. Mine took a lot more than the stated volume - 2 litres for each gives you enough. Top up with the car level, until oi...

As it's my birthday today I thought I'd treat the Zed to service items.
7 litres of triple qx 5w40
2 litres of syntrans b75 gearbox oil
2 litres of syntrax 75x140 diff oil
K&n pro oil filter, seal and 'o' rings
Bosch panel air filter
6x Bosch spark plugs.
Happy birthday to me!

Davejue1

Hi, I was aware of the LSD but you came in just on time with regards to buying the wrong oil. Found the correct stuff at the same place so just ordered it.
Thanks for the knees up

Davejue1

Just gone on ebay to order the oils from opie and there's a firm selling the castrol syntrans B 75 in Germany. It's identical and works out £6 cheaper for 2 litres delivered. Call me tight if you like but every penny counts in my book! Anyone interested look up seller:smeagold-2008

Cheers
Dave

Davejue1

2 of each it is. Thanks chaps.

Davejue1

Lovely thanks

Davejue1

Hi all. Going to order the above from opie oils. Can anyone tell me how much of each I require?

Cheers
Dave

Hi everyone , it the large back box and the smaller box at the front. Thanks for the like on the signature . They where all in the family at one time . Left to right , wife's 1.8 , brother in laws M coupé , parents z4 2.2 and z3 2.2 and finally my 2.2 sport that I've had for for 13 years (from New ...

Davejue1

Your exhaust won't fit my car but I really like your signature pic.

Davejue1

Other than the 'M' the Zed was never meant to be put against such cars. It's like comparing a Honda c50 against a Honda fireblade. They were never designed to go head to head. The Zed is a fantastic car in its own right. If you want to race around the track like a loon buy a carrera turbo.

Davejue1

I'm no mechanic so not the best person to answer but I'm pretty certain that the engine will bolt straight in with the exception of engine mountings which are easily changed if required. Gearbox I imagine would need to be from a 2.8 but you should be able to find a complete engine and box easily eno...

Davejue1

Just drain and refill with fresh. Should be fine

Davejue1

That White Z3M is original, Its the only one in RHD in the UK the other 3 are LHD. Bare in mind that white Z3M used to be supercharged in the past, also the seller has no service history and she's ropey round the edges. (Guages dont work,Currently flat battery,little rust) Lee Would it be a good bu...

Davejue1

Moz, you are such a child lol!!

. And the way you hit that pothole you can keep your car!

Davejue1

Look up southernboy on here. He can supply clear fronts for you. I have M style rears on mine. Can't remember the name but came from a German firm on ebay.

Davejue1

I do like those wheels.

Davejue1

Hello

. I'll second Pete, good cars, nice folk, good days out. If where you live fits, get involved.

Cheers
Dave

Davejue1

Hi I haven't been on one of your days out yet but me and the other half would love to have cruise with you all I live in Hinckley Leicestershire Duxford show looks intresting but is there anything happing before :) I'm sure they'd be a few happy to meet early for a cruise down. I'll keep an eye on ...

Very nice Bill, very nice indeed.

Davejue1 · Re: Duxford Spring Car Show 03/05/15 Lovely, count me in then thanks.

Lovely, count me in then thanks.

I think maybe you best be checking the previous owners history out

. Haven't a clue but welcome to the forum.

Cheers

Brian, can you go if your not a club member?

Cheers
Dave

Davejue1

Solid silver!

Davejue1

Arghhhhhh your like me mate, your car means more to you than the kids!!! Nice!

Davejue1

Paul, ask your painter to take pics as he goes along. Nice for the history file. I was like an expectant father while mine was in but they know what there doing. Only problem mine had was getting rid of some very deep stone chips on the front of the bonnet.

Davejue1

I'll double what Brian says regarding the seats. 2 hours driving and my back gives me jip. I love everything about the Z3 tho and have no inclination to change to a 4. I only use mine on nice days through spring and summer but I think 30k a year would take its toll on you and the car. On your mileag...

Sold!!!! That didn't take long Andy! :D My patience was stretched at points! There was even some chap on another forum who bothered to sign up and post (his/her only posts) to tell me that it was too expensive! ..... Thanks for your input! ......

Wouldn't be for me Pete. Valve stem oil seals etc will be hard due to lack of use. These very low mileage cars generally give a lot more bother than cars used everyday. I do worry a bit with mine, it only does 1500 a year but it had done 80k odd when I bought it. :) if it got out of bed in the wint...

Reincarnation of an old thread but wow what a car! Can anyone better that? Looks like the owner no longer faquaints the forum. Shame, would have been nice to see some up to date pics.

As long as the rain held off that's the main thing. Chucked it down here for much of the day. Pleased you had a nice day. Looking forward to Paul organising the same run in the spring!

Would be good to do the peaks again soon, without the fog!

Now that I'd love to be on. Are you happy to organise Paul?

Davejue1

Good. Spent 60 hours a week on motorways. Make a nice change seeing a single carriageway!

Davejue1

I'd have liked that Paul but Zed still in bed. Sounds a good run later in the year tho if you fancy repeating it?

Cheers

More than likely Adrian, someone getting paid a small fortune to come up with an old idea. Nice work if you can get it!

I'm in. Enjoyed last year.
