I will be selling my used HKS Coilovers at the start of next month Looking for £500 for them...a very good price considering they were £1600 brand new!

I have one for sale, only looking for £25 Drop me a pm if your interested

well Im not talking about my hair I got some laminate vinyl tint for the zed from the US, thought I would have a go at putting it on today. The rests are not to bad, ive never tinted anything before so it came out ok! I would like to re-do the drivers side rearlight as its slightly off, but as its stuck down I cant do much about it....overall not a bad effort I think. I have headlight tint in the garage but im not sure if I want to fit it yet...ill have to see how well the light shines through on the rears first. also debaged aswell...so once my Tommy K Badge turns up the rear should be looking quite tidy

Its always sad to see a car go, but the zed really is something special! You dont see many on the road...but when you do they look stunning! What has your dad gone for ? Also how much did he get for the zed ? It looks similarly spec'd out to mine

What are you doing round my neck of the woods ian ?

HKS Coilovers would be mine, alot of money on full adjustable height and dampening....I havent touched them since the day they were put on! If i tracked my car I could justify having such an expensive suspension setup but as I dont I should have just stick with the Eibach Springs I originally had!

Bump

I have a Pioneer D3 in my Zed, comes with Sat Nav, Bluetooth, Ipod integration and can play DIVX movies! Its a few years old and I recon you could probably pick one up on ebay for 400ish quid

Ok lots of information there guys thank you Firstly the Tax incentive is one of the reason for doing this, I have a limited company so will put this through there and claim back the VAT. I need to do some reading on PCP and understand how it works, but if its anything like leasing ill look like this after ive read it The reason I am looking into these options are because the list price for the car I want is about £60,000 brand new (ideally id like a new car but if I can lease a slightly used one that might also be an option) so if I am paying off the amount the car depreciates + the apr ontop of that finance I will probably be in a financially better situation then lumping £30k and financing the rest of the car. One thing that does attract me about the leasing is that you can get Maintenance and Road Tax included, for something like a GT-R or a Convertable M3 which are not cheap to Maintain this could definetly be an option. Thanks for all the help chaps

what were you thinking of switching the zed for if you dont mind me asking ?

Hi Guys, I am thinking about changing my zed fairly soon and always wondered about leasing a car instead of just lumping up cash for the whole thing! I am trying to work out if it makes sense for me to actually lease though, from what I can see all of the leases work of a time of about 3 years (that is extendable ? ) they do charge you if you gov over the 10,000 mile allowance. Now I am only using the car as a weekend car, so I probably only do 3 - 4k a year, which would mean at the end of 3 years the car would have a slightly higher residual value as its been used less. So the part I dont understand here is, if it makes sense to do more or less miles, which is more financially viable ? Lower annual miles means the monthly payments would be lower ? as your only paying off the difference between the cost of the car now and the predicted cost of the car in 2 / 3 years when you hand it back in. I am confused so a helping hand would be much appreciated Thanks Bhav

great sounds like there is more then enough interest so ill go away and get some prices

The Cosworth ones are fairly good from what ive read, Sarah (chilli red) has a whole bunch of them in stock 2 Narcotix - the OP has a HR engine so will have 2 intakes which wouldnt be able good to you...unless you fitted one and put the other one on your mantle as a show piece

Have you had a look here: viewtopic.php?f=115&t=32836 Id expect to pay about 80 quid in import tax so I think you could have them at your door for £500 all in

Hi Guys, I just got through a set of pre-cut Tinted Laminate covers for all my lights in the 350z, this got me to thinking would anyone be interested in pre-cut film to tint their tails lights/headlights, indicators? I am just waiting for a few companies to get back to me on price but want to get an idea of how interested people would be before I persue it Bhav

Nice to see you finally got the covers fitted I am expecting pics

Anyone got 1 of these?

Id love a set of those aswell!

Good advice if the OP has a TT set-up but I don't think he has. His sig says APS TT kit so I think he does

talk to ben @ rarerims he should be able to sort you out with exactly what you need

I wouldn't swap LMGT's for Rota's either but having said that I sold my LMGT's recently and currently have my 2nd set of rims on the Zed at the moment - which happen to be Rota Drifts with R888's and believe it or not the 18inch Rotas (with new R888's on) weight less than the 19inch LMGT's (with part worn Goodyear Eagles). 23kgs for the LMGTs vs 22kgs for the Rotas (inc tyres). While the LMGT's are the dogs danglies there is no performance benefit with running them over the Rotas and the Rotas are easily and cheaply replaced if damaged. ...but that's because you've dropped a size. Needless to say thats true - I'm comparing 19 inch LMGT's with 18 inch Rotas but I am also including the heavier tyres on the 18's - diameter stays the same. I'm not trying to fight the Rotas corner (the LMGTs are the superior rim) - I've had both LMGTs and Rotas - my point was there isn't the difference that many people seem to think there is. Surely R888's would be light though, they come with 5mm trade as standard compared to a normal set of tyres with 8mm. Thats 3mm more rubber all the way round... OP - id keep the LMGT4's and just get them refurb'd gloss black and do the door handles while your at it

Here you go bud: Looks

Around the £150 mark I think

talk to ChilliRed...I am sure she can get hold of these brand new, if you cant find a second hand 1

Ive seen this car parked up in slough aswell...looked an absolute mess! Best of luck with getting it back to its former glory bud There is a trader on here thats got wheels very similar to the ones in your photoshop for sale btw Also just noticed your in Uxbridge so if you need any help or info im only down the road in Northwood
