  1. Good man, I had air con off and windows down (still just enjoying the sound of the engine with the popcharger), this could be why..
  2. Parked opposite the kings arms pub....5 mins from my house....local?
  3. We I am up for meeting so if you don't mind me starting up one of these to make life easier with names? Cherwell services prior meet + greet R800NER (Booner or Richard) - Kuro black
  4. It was emptied and filled with 5w 40 synthetic Silkolene. Could this be why it was sitting at a low idle? Am I safe to say, it won't do any harm?
  5. I just had a P3 service, MOT and EBC ultimax discs/redpads all round (CS supplied) on my Zed. First thing I noticed upon starting up outside the garage, is that the idle seemed to be lower, then dropped a wee bit more, then a wee bit more and settle at like 400/500rpm. This seems awfully low? What's your idle rpm? Could a full oil change have changed this idle rpm? Car seems more rev free and sounds noticeably different, like meaner and throatier...which is a good thing of course! Will give it beans once the brakes are fully bedded in and report back.
  6. Guildford hey....I was born there...some nice rounds round your neck of the woods buddy, might have to make a trip down to see where I grew up for a hoon. Nice zed too btw
  7. So we are agreed at meeting at the services, then convoy into Silverstone from there?
  8. Just before my 21st birthday, I found out my dad has prostate cancer and it has spread. I will be buying some of these tickets and I am really sorry for your loss.
  9. I am joining the a34 at the pear tree interchange Oxford, then driving up to join the M40 at junction 9.
  10. I am just to the west of Oxford, so let me know where you are meeting on the way up and I will come tag along, seeing as this is my first meet and all
  11. Are you londeners coming up the M40? I am up for meeting on the Oxford services...
  12. I will only know Nurrish, is that a good thing?
  13. Something about grass and wickets comes to mind?
  14. Decided, will do it myself in the middle of the night. Will save birthday beers for another night Cheers
  15. Turned 21 yesterday! Yeah I get rinsed at work for that....that's the problem with being the office baby! Girl like the car though, that's confirmed
  16. That looks superb
  17. I have a zed, am 21, single and liking girls is an understatement. Does that fit the bill Plus I want to prove everyone at work wrong, they wind me up about trying to pull kids from the local school...
  18. Zed is in Westway Nissan in Kidlington tomorrow for P3 service, MOT and new pads/disks fitted all round (EBC ultimax + redstuff - thanks CS!) So, I have the bedding in procedure printed off.....what's best? 1.) Take car home from garage, bed them in myself overnight on an empty road, I know they are done properly. 2.) Be lazy, let garage bed them in (included in price of fitting?), take car home, have a few bevvy's to celebrate my 21st birthday and have more sleep. I also have comeback if it's not done correctly. Which option would you go for?
  19. Ah, local to Bicester? I see you on the A34 in the morning, I think I tried to catch up with you in my black zed the other day, but a van prevented me Saying that, it might have been another member.. Welcome to the forum matey
  20. I can confirm that the Official Nismo kit doesn't have cut outs, but looks awesome fitted CS's kit has the holes for the washers, which I believe are on all facelift cars? (somebody confirm).
  21. Research is best form of attack! I obviously didn't do enough and resulted in two orders for bits and lots of rewiring! Will check bluetooth out at some point and let you know
  22. viewtopic.php?f=27&t=22782 That thread shows my troubles with the Alpine HU install.......however, it really was worth it after getting it all working. My car isn't an import, I believe you need different looms, but try this thread for more info: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=16403&hilit=audio+upgrade Hopefully this helps a little bit? I think my Alpine has bluetooth built into it, lots of functionality and doesn't look worth anything, so don't expect anyone to break into my car for it. Saying that, they would have a right mission getting any of our stereo's out!!
  23. what set-up did you go for? i've been thinking about new amps and speakers but to be honest with the struggle I had getting the bloody headunit back in I NEVER want to take the thing out again It almost went through the windscreen. R Finished product: Thread's here if you want to have a chuckle at my attempts! Putting the b y thing back in was a nightmare! I think I will change the rear speakers and front speakers at some point, but need to stay away from ICE for a little while so I don't go insane! viewtopic.php?f=27&t=22782 Alpine HU, whilst retaining the steering wheel controls.
