dude!!!! Be patient...you will get used to the car...the handling is so sweet and predictable that now i want to find a way to have the ESP off by default and turn it on when i want it instead of the other way round!!! I suppose it depends on the tyres as well.....bridgestones 040 are bad in the wet...pilot sports 2 and you will never look back! in any case a very very extensively covered topic here...have a look around.... Now go out there and get used to the car!!! ps if it ever loses grip...lay back, relax, be gentle with the steering (doesnt need much to correct), gently play with the throttle, 200 yards after stop on the side, light a fag and once your hands stop shaking take a pic of your smile and post it here!!!!

Gutted martin i couldnt make it...but the car is not ready yet...hopefully all will be sorted out on friday... hope you all have a fab time with no mishaps

??? tell me!!! is it better for the brakes??? wouldnt i ruin the tyres then???? i can smell tyre locks everywhere now!!!

no worries m8. shame i have never seen the lip on my disks.....

I cant see why you want the ABS off....especially when it works so well on the Zed.... I am not aware how the JDM ones are but when i deactivate the ESP on my 08 Z there is no help at all!!! Tested...more than a few times....on a track only that is!!!

1mm is nothing m8...keep in mind its about 1mm each side of the disk as well....hope the forum will correct me but i would say that you should be thinking of changing them at about 3mm....

That would be good.... N then you try and explain to the missus!!!!

That prob woudnt be enough....

thanks nixy!!!! penthouse whinfell forest it is!!!! looks fantastic....and the drive will be interesting as well.... Srobrien i love scotland but its too far for a weekend....i quite like your avatar tho...brought back so many memories...ken....street fighter.....hadoken!!!!!! Cheers guys!

tried hoseasons and there are a couple in devon and cornwall!!! i was thinking a couple of hours from Hull....dales, moors and coast, lincoln, up to Shipley area....nothing...

I dont know if it helps.... used to have a maserati 4200gt....which at some point and after a lot of abuse broke one of the gearbox mounts....which knocked the middle bit of the exhaust and as a result turned the CEL light on due to the O2 sensors reading F..k all!!! The car run ok up to 110-120 mph but after that nothing...from stand still it was slightly slower than normal but nothing you would have noticed if you didnt drive the car before and after... JCT600 in Leeds said its a safety thing in the ECU....suppose it has to do with the mixture fuel/air... Reshaped the exhaust...changed the box mount...changed knackered clutch btw and £2500 later it was ok.... Just a thought...could it be the same??? apart from the CEL light that is...

If its 2 female Zeds nixy then i am your man!!!!!

I quite fancy taking the missus for the weekend 24-25th of October to a log cabin around Yorkshire....countryside, nice walks, hot tubs and so on..... But there is absolutely nothing available!!!!! You have to book about 2 months in advance!!! Everybody is going on about credit crunch and stuff...but how can so many people afford £500 accommodation for a weekend away in October???

Which is the overflow carpark ? The reason I'm askin as the only one I've seen is not close to the Xscape and frequented by Corsa boy racers and bottom feeders alot of the time... follow signs to overflow car park. its over the train lines. its quiet there for donnuts as well!!! its the one that u go to xscape over a footbridge from.

Right then just put your names down. Sunday the 18th Yorkshire meet at Xscape 12 noon. 1. Greekman 2. Nixy 3. Markie 4. Lincolnbaggie See you all at the overflow car park!!!

Thats fine....shall we say around 12???

How about sunday the 18th then? put ur names down and propose a time. 1. Greekman

Da Zed wont be ready guys....cant risk driving so many miles with dodgy brakes..... Proper gutted.......

i am up for an xcape meet!!!

Thanks mate... I had an arthroscopy today (bloody sore) lol aswell as 2 mri scans................. one before and one after the fluid was injected. So i am meeting with the specialist tomoz as he will have the results Keep us posted m8.... As you know i am a dentist so although i know bits id rather not say a thing as i may not be accurate...had a rotator cuff injury on the left shoulder tho...and it took years to feel perfect again...i still remember the pain so i am feeling for you!!! Hope you get well soon!!!

It looks fab m8!!! i need more pics tho!!!

Why???? Why not a nismo roadster??? 345 bhp would be enough to make me change my 350 roadster.....but pay 15 grand to go from 309 to 326??? i have seen the coupe. interior fab and it looks good....but for 15 grand i could have a nice bodykit and 400+bhp!!! Come on nissan!!!! give me a break!!!

I v never seen anything like this before.... And as Vale said avenues in Hull!!! I literally cant drive there!!! And just in case you have never been there Vale....never and i mean never drive to the octagon sports centre near Hull royal infirmary....i will try and take some pics of those speed bumps...i just have to walk there!!!

I honestly dont know how much they go for...i would say £150 upwards....

i ll keep that in mind!
