many thanks chaps
much appreciated...
(yes I noticed cover on Diff - which stopped me lifting from there.. thanks)
-
I was in Friday's 1230 show.... where the Noble had same problem.
I though the grass track minis were amazing - twin bike engines in the back and wheeling down the straight !!
-
Where should I use trolley jack to jack car please ?
(I have searched all areas - which means I'm rubbish at searching or could be included in FAQ ? or it's an obvious answer if you know and/or not paranoid about bending something).
many thanks in advance.

yep very boring... my overestimate - was just under 180 miles one way (journey back) Brum to Frinton (east coast) but via dropping friend off en route as well in Cambridge. Otherwise would have been 170.
-
Good news - 35.8mpg (must be close to record ?) over ~190 mile distance.
Bad news - Due to space saver spare fitted thanks to rear puncture
Run on cruise control at 60mph - veeery frustrating
370 also appeared in show with host of new fast cars in arena - looked good from distance.

please tell me:-
1. easiest route, connection etc to hard wire, &
2. are you doing anything to increase signal strength ? (when I place TomTom in cubby I often lose signal).
thanks

cars look great - and not a 'stubby' aerial in sight
Edit: note to self - read others comments before being a smart arse

Just letting you know I would have attended but booked elsewhere.
Look fwd to another one in 2009...
(really want to see your motor in the flesh)

Isn't there any concern that this don't eliminate fine partcles as efficiently as stock item, which could cause damage to bores ?

Of interest to anyone ? On retention.

Another ex VX220 (NA) owner here. Owned from new for 5 years and 76k miles. Engine and handling mods so went very well.
Agree with most of above. VX and Zed two different cars. Only had Zed 2 months and not yet been on track so can't really compare how responsive on limit etc. But Zed is obviously fast and comfortable (& warm) place to be. I don't fit seat as well as VX though. Looking forward to doing more miles in Zed and having a play.... (Evo, 5th gear etc love them
VX220 ownership is far more extreme, but then you do get the total feedback of a lightweight car - horses for courses really.
I have a north weald day this Friday - if it's wet and cold I'll take the Zed instead of Caterham.
(say hi to the 116 and vx220.org crew for me

I voted to leave as stock, purely because your car is in such top notch condition.

some will make a negative comment on any car you or others may drive, even if their mode of transport is a lame donkey, some individuals are just gifted with charm and wit (and makes them feel better).
best response - just laugh and join in with the joke - never, ever bite

I'll have to miss this one - but hopefully ok for the next.
Have a good meet... I very much enjoyed the last get together.
-
well I might go mad and replace the 'Nissan' badges with the 'Z' ones on show...
trouble is I know once you start it's a slippery slope having modded my last car (all performance and handling related)... but I did this as I evolved with the car and got used to it - mostly for track days and sprints...
I get my adrenalin rush now racing a Caterham - so I'll keep Zed stock for the time being, until maybe I find any fast road limits - but there might not be any ?? at least for my modest driving standards.
-
great find
-
great to meet a friendly bunch and get loads of info on how to care, run and mod a Zed
-
Bonnet looks great
The stickers that are missing are those that are needed to race !
I don't know a race series that would allow entry without MSA safety stickers (plus hareness, full roll cage etc ).... except maybe club sprints ?
Which race series is this car in ?

Just to let everyone know.
My problem was fixed by following this advice, ie. bleeding/changing clutch fluid. From others experiencing this problem as well I'm assuming it's not a service item ? This should be the case as my fluid was old and contaminated - hence it broke down with heat.
Did a 350 mile round trip after fix and all ok
Note. Bleeding was a bit tricky... once pressure was released on slave cylinder clutch pedal went to the floor and then stayed there !! you have to lift pedal back up and pump gently back down (in fact it goes down by itself !). Releasing bleed nipple and working up and down, with someone else keeping master cyl full soon had all old fluid removed and working perfect.
