Only a small up date here, went to a local garage today so I could have the air con 're gassed as when I bought the car it wasn't working and after replacing the fan resistor still didn't work so it was ither the compressor not working correct or needed some fresh refrigerant so had it drained down today and 're filled and now I have air con that works :-)

well this is my first car i have had with air con and i have to say at this time of year you can clear the front windscreen so fast with it, cant waiit till the summer now

and the guy at the garage doing the air con was looking around the engine bay, turned and asked me did you fit that turbo your self ha ha, just goes to show how little is known about these cars

Thats funny, 'did you fit it yourself'?. Yeah it does show that people think they know it all and actually know nowt. I have found a tidy looking zr for £400, drop a z&f tuned turbo in there and it'll be a monster. Hmm, tempting.

yeah it was quite funny and as i told him no thats how they come out the factory he looked at me quite pizzeld, so i guess hes never seen one before and was like oh i am surprised they would put a turbo on a k series, and then i told him that i had it maped and it was running around 200bhp and you can guess what he said next.....

and yes i do also think a 1.8k turbo could be quite lively in a zt and could make for a verry fun car
