  1. I keep seeing an 04 plate sunset zed on Mount Rd most mornings on my drive to work. It looks and sounds great if it's anyone on here!
  2. Cheers for the input everyone! My roadster box was fine in the summer but as the temperature dropped it got notchy. I had the gearbox oil changed and also used moly slip but the problem got worse as the temperature kept dropping. Once the gearbox was warm all gears were fine but having no second gear for the first ten minutes of each drive was a bit concerning!
  3. I just got rid of my 296 roadster for a few reasons but don't think I've quite got the zed out of my system yet. I really fancy a 313 coupe but, before I take the plunge, wanted to check a couple of things. Did Nissan sort the oil consumption issue by the time they released the hr? Is the gearbox any better in the hr? Do the same common faults such as clicking axle, skipping Bose etc plague the later cars too? Thanks in advance!
  4. I have for sale a Stormforce CCC367 cover which can be used on either a 350 or a 370. This is the one that has pockets for the wing mirrors. Taken directly from the label this is a: '4 layer all weather car cover Soft, breathable fabric, ultimate protection, unrivalled strength.' Awesome hey! Comes in a smart bag and folds reasonably small so can be easily stored. This came with the Zed when I bought it and I've never had cause to use it. I've unfolded it just to take photos and was pleased to note that there's no damp smell to it. The cover looks to be in good overall condition and free from damage. Looking on the internet these seem to be available for between £130-180. I would like £80 for this collected from Bury St Edmunds or it can be delivered at your cost via any courier firm you'd like. I regularly travel to Stoke on Trent via the A14, M1, A50 or M6 so delivery along this route may also be possible. Any question please feel free to ask!
  5. Ha ha, no idea but I like it! There's a lot of tractors so maybe more demand for diesel!
  6. 115.9 for momentum in Bury St Edmunds. Plus 8p a litre off for me so 107.9p. I was a happy man!!
  7. Thanks so much for the responses! I finally understand the basics so I can now do a bit more research. I definately don't want cabin drone, potential mot failures etc. just a bit more rasp! Again, thanks for the help.
  8. So I have a totally standard roadster with the 296bhp engine which I love. The only thing that I'm a little disappointed with is how quiet the exhaust is. Now, I'm no boy racer and I don't plan to do any other mods but I would like a subtlety louder system. I've looked on the forum and like the sound of the cobra system but I'm confused by the terminology. Resonated/non resonated, hfc, y pipe etc. is it a performance mod and do I need to notify my insurance company. Will it mess up the fueling on the existing engine map? I prefer the idea of a full system but would I get the different exhaust note just with the silencer? I see figures around £400. Is that the system and can I just buy that and bolt it on? Sorry for the noob questions!
  9. I think that, having read what people have said, the published fuel economy figures for the zed may be one of the few cars that is accurate! Use it purely around town and you'll get figures in the teens. Use it on a run and they'll be low thirties. Use it over a mixture and it'll be low to mid twenties. Can't say fairer than that! Urban mpg 17.5 mpg CO2 emissions 273 g/km Extra Urban mpg 32.5 mpg Annual Tax £285 Average mpg 24.8 mpg
  10. I saw a 57 plate yellow, what I assume was a GT4, with a body kit on heading towards BSE yesterday 26/10/14)
  11. I was obsessed with fuel consumption before I bought mine as I'd read so many posts of 200 miles/£85 fill ups and I can't stomach that. I've had mine about 1,000 miles now. Using it daily and doing a short commute to work with a few spirited drives I got 300-350 miles to a tank. I recently drove 170 miles and stuck to 65 mph most of the way with a couple of quicker blasts towards the end. I got 33mpg. I then drove home at 80mph for the majority of the 170 miles and I got 31mpg. I don't think that's bad at all to be honest!
  12. Hi, please could you pm me a price for all items required for a p3 services? I'm also interested in a price on spark plugs and auxiliary belts please? Thanks!
  13. Thanks. Can it be used as a measure of engine health?
