welcome and nice zed in a really classy colour

wow an impressive build! I really like those recaros. How would you say they compare in terms of weight to stock seats? Also how durable do you think they will be?

welcome, aslo wouldn't mind seeing some pics of your other projects.

I'd really like to see the launch control being added on a DE, I'd definetly be getting it done. I'm not sure I'd use it that often but still its great pub talk haha

nice job, the wheels look really fresh!

I keep getting asked if its an audi tt

Lovely looking car bud. Is the car on stock height? I really like how the wheels look.

I refreshed my shocks with Bilstein B6 shocks and I can't rate them highly enough. For being a daily they are smooth and perform well when out for a blast round some twisty roads.

I love seeing these because they're quite unusual. Great work on the car so far btw!

Thanks guys. Still very much experimenting with the whole photography etc but I like watching similar videos so just sharing the experiences I'm going to in person.

There was two more zeds on the day. A red HR and the chubbyninja but I didn't manage to get any of them.

Hey guys, I thought you'd appreciate seeing some of the jap cars on show from knockill last week. If you could give it a watch, thanks.

What a great read this thread has been. Just about dropped when I seen the paint peeling on the roof!

welcome to the forum, nice zed!

Yeah, lets be honest though, we're not going to be putting down the right foot in pouring rain etc. I reckon 300-350bhp is a good usable amount for a 1.5 tonne car that is properly maintained with good tyres and in dry weather.

Yeah I totally agree weight is obviously a huge factor, but generally speaking for the average drivers performance/sports car

Right guys im throwing this question out there. What would you say the cutoff for actual usable horsepower on the road is. I should explain, whilst talking with friends at japfest, the topic of what amount of horsepower can you use and enjoy whilst on a road trip/drive through some twisty country roads. At which point do you have soo much power, that you have either not enough length or road to go through 2/3 gears, or simply have to slow because you're on the verge of imprisonment? I know some will say theres never too much but thought it would be a good discussion topic to see your thoughts.

Hey just wondering if anyone on here owns the two zeds I managed to snap at Japfest. Thechubbyninga was also there but I only saw him whilst he beat a gtr in a drag race!!!

Thanks chaps. Ewan at Clarks Motorsport to the rescue. My local Nissan dealers took 3 different parts department staff and still didn't grasp the part which I needed. Ewan took 3 seconds. Top service again from these chaps.

Hey guys can anyone suggest a supplier that would be able to get me a new positive battery connection. The old one has snapped at the clasp which tightens on to the battery. It almost left me stranded two hours drive from home. I'm not sure if the lead is in cased to the clasp or whether a simple attachment to the end can be done. Hopefully one of you guys can help and I can get on the phone first thing tomorrow. Cheers

That's it guys. I really preferred the non wrapped cars if I'm honest but each to their own. The frosted blue GTR caught my eye though. I liked that.

Heres the clip from the open day hosted by TLC detailing. Some pretty nice cars on show. The maserati stole the show for me though Cheers for taking time to watch guys.

Wow I absolutely love up that way. I go a little further to Dornoch for a break sometimes however I've yet to take the zed! These pics are putting me in mind for a break away now.

Currently playing uncharted 4 on the ps4. It's probably the most stunning game visually on the next gen consoles to date. Great game too!

I remember seeing a tuscan years ago for sale locally at around 15k, right around the time every performance car took a massive hit. If i wasn't so young at the time and could've got insured, I'd be a richer man.
