Perhaps the thing to do would be start a new post so that we could coordinate a date and time that works for the largest number of interested people.
HIZNHRZ,
Don't hold out on us!
Tell us how your Z runs now since you got it back from Mark.

The Z is quicker. Played with loads of Fezzas, usually on the way to Le Mans and not found a quick one yet

Something I get a lot over here is reference to the car's weight and how it is heavy. Well I weighed mine last year and with all fluids filled to high, a fuel tank brimmed and loads of stereo in the back mine weighed in at just over 1600 kilos. Go and google the kerb weight of various new cars and you find the Z aint that heavy. It might have been a bit heavy back in 1990 but modern cars as a whole are getting heavier because of all those airbags and sat navs etc they are lugging around.

OK...sounds like a plan... I will start a new thread over here on the "General Postings"... I will throw out a bit of a poll as to what we would like to do.
