my navara was chipped to 225bhp and that was mental in the wet and great fun in the dry. looks like someone had a fun projects

saw a blade coupe last night pulling onto tesco express i was waiting at the lights. anyone on here?

spotted an azure tonight up at merry hill outside pc world. any one on here?

I'm going on the friday. Heading down on the thursday night and staying at my mates in chobham in surrey. then cruising on over on friday morning

The zeds only my third car.

Firstly started off with my corsa sxi.

17" team dynamics monza, remus exhaust and K&N 57ki. it was my pride and joy.

Then swapped it for something a tad more practicle.

The 22"s made it a tad impracticle but loved the looks it used to get.

Then swapped it for the Zed

Was thinking it would be useful to have one of these if anything ever goes wrong.

What does everyone have? I dont really want one that plugs into a laptop as i have a mac and its not always compatible with all software.

Gutted i couldnt make it this year been the last 2. Your car was lookin Ekona. i usually find the biggest expense is the booze. How easy did the vinyls come off? We went in my pick up the last 2 years and only ever had small stickers on it.

i was thinking about this the other day.

i reckon they will give away a 350z when they review the 370

I changed my rear pads a while ago and since doing so the back brakes seem to have been binding slightly (catching noise). I thought this would stop once they were properly bedded in but its still happening. The front disks and pads were changed aswell.

Just to confirm it was the rear pads i jacked the car up and spun the front wheels around they spun 3 to 4 turns once i had pushed them with only the slightest sound of the pads catching. I did the same with the rears and they only managed half a turn so i have since come to the conclusion that it is the hand brake.

Ive taken the rear pads out and they were all fine.

How do i adjust the handbrake as it is a facelift model and the guides seem to be for the prefacelift interior and lifting the ashtray out.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

speak to CS mate, He got mine at a very decent price plus it arrived the next day.

Blitz Nur spec T, Sounded perfect for me. But coupled with a pop charger just makes me grin even more.

try wellington motors in taunton. Its where i bought my car from and they seemed good. I think thats classed as somerset. Abit to far for me to go back to unfortunately

Rico 350zGT. I use them and did with my navara aswell. You just have to beat them down on a price. i got a price for a service in telford that was 110quid cheaper than them then asked if they would match it and they said yeah.

If i'm not working i shall be along. maybe just to watch

Whats the crack with Dynoing the Zed i heard the its not good for the diff or something.

Hi Guys,

 

Thanks for the Welcome, im up for any meets.

 

details of my zed:

2006 facelift Roadster GT spec.

Azure Blue

Sat Nav

100% stock, though that will change soon enough with Popcharger, and clear side markers.

 

T8 JPE, im in Amblecote, Stourbridge do you know it?

where abouts are you in Stourbridge?

where abouts are you in Stourbridge?

I live in norton. If you ever need any help fitting anything just give me a shout. Did u buy your Z from westway. i find their service good however they can be a tad expensive.

Just checked the battery and it was showing 13.1v which i assume is as it should be

Glad to see some of the zeds i see around on here.

Welcome rico, Where abouts in stourbridge are you from?

thats what i thought about the petrol smell.

Would a low battery cause it to throw up the CEL light? The started motor sounded pretty strong though, just like normal.

Hi Guys hope you all had a good time in wales.

I got back today from a 10day holiday and went to start the Zed but to my horror she wouldn't start.

The starter motor was turning strong but it just wouldn't fire.

I put the car in 1st and rocked it back and forth just to make sure the flywheel wasnt stuck or something. Heard of it happening on old cars.

And then tried it again and it went, however it showed the engine management light.

Will this likely be because i could smell fuel when i was trying to start it and thus when it did start it thought it was running rich?

I've done an ecu reset and it seems fine now. Just want to know some of the experts views.

Its a 56plate with a blitz exhaust and pop charger.

Cheers

I've done 2 track days and bought insurance both times. In my opinion its well worth it as you insure a figure not the car if that makes sense. I insured my car for £17k and i know thats more than the market value but if i had a crash i had to pay a 10% excess and then the rest was paid by them.

In my opinion it just offers a piece of mind that if the worst happens your covered.

I believe the ring isn't covered by most people tho.

i've had dentsaway do my car twice. he came to my house and charged 40squid to take 2 carpark dents out. Did a cracking job. I suppose it all depends how good the individual is really as its a national franchise

welcome, good choice on colour. silver is by far the best.
