2- You are wrong condensation happens because of the temp difference between the glass and ambient air. cold glass, warm and moist air. Both AC and demister fan will demist the glass but blower is faster. The AC drys and cool the the air so equalising temps. The fan blows off the moisture from the glass and the element in the rear screen is a heater As a matter of fact both ac/blower come on same time in the zed and most modern cars when you set the dials to demist function. The air con lowers the temperature of the air, thus lowering its moisture content(hence condensation from bottom of the car) When the air then heats back up, its ability to hold moisture is improved... Think of it as a bath, full to the top with water (air 100% saturated), Then lower the bath so water comes out of it (cooling of the air) Then make the bath back upto its original size, it can now be filled with more water (air less saturated now, so it now has the ability to absorb more water) sorry its hard to explain without using technical terms, its all to do with the psychrometrics and characteristics of air. Air has a greater ability to hold more water vapour at a higher temperature, dehumidify and then humidify.

I've not looked at that vid but I'm guessing it's the sls amg. Seen one today in the merc garage. Very weird but very cool

The nismo y-pipe in it's original form is poor quality and almost everyone I know with it has had to repair it. It cost me almost 200 quid to repair and to be honest there's better y-pipes for around that money. Pauls exhaust was for sale, similar condition with y-pipe and the price reflected in his shows that Stephens amount of 700 delivered is a good price. Stop whinging people or fork out the 1400 quid for a new one. 700 delivered is a good price and exhaust is well looked after, I can vouch for it. Very very shiny Edit: major iPhone typo's corrected

Ah u need to get yourself into the highlands of Scotland next year for the hoon if it happens. Then you'll truly understand what I mean.(except the odd pile of horsesh1t on the ground) The roads are awesome!

Have they changed the rules? I thought it was good things that came in 3's. I feel for you! I hate stonechips. Hopefully your air cons working for the summer though! Then you can enjoy nice grit/dirt free roads.

Hi Gary, it looks as though alot of the jdms don't have the rear speakers (possibly an optional extra) if your looking to change your set-up and looking for a double din may I suggest saving and going for a good one which you will enjoy rather than a cheap one which is of poor quality and poor sound outputs. You may be able to post up and see if anyone has one, stick an add in the wanted section. As for rear speakers, check the guides I'm sure there will be one somewhere. If there's none then your gonna be a little out of pocket to fit some I reckon especially if your not doing it yourself. Have you checked the balance and fade setting ls on the hu? Have a look and make sure the rears aren't isolated

Where have you been Derek? Disappeared on here! What's next on the list of cars? Car is immaculate! Very well looked after! Good luck

Bloody hell it's all big feckers on here. I feel a midget at 5'10. I love the zed and find it that comfy that on long drives I tend to start falling asleep so generally have plenty of pit stops.

I'm gonna put it straight and say when reading it all thought was, what a fanny. There's no doubt, the zed isn't the fastest car in the world. Of course these small cars with 200hp per ton will keep up with u to the top end. But you know which one I'd rather be driving. I wish people would stop taking the bait of these delinquent youths driving rocket powered rusty handbags and grow up. It's fine having a little blast for fun, yep have a discussion with a few people, but don't post up a thread about it as if it's a big thing. At the end of the day you've put yourself in the firing line. There's no excuse for acting like a fanny. Not jus the other day one of our members had a tragic accident and the last thing the club wants to show is our members street racing. Take it to the track with the big boys. No wonder you're feeling embarrassed.

Defo pick up a second hand one. Plenty of cars getting broken on the net. Alex or r35lee should defo be able to sort you out with one
-
yep i suppose so, probs not worth the risk but if you know the guys at the garage well and they are authorised repairers for ur insurance company then no inspectors are sent out so they generally turn you a blind eye.

i havent had any problems with any modified cars. My cooper s works was completely changed, the works bodykit wasnt insured as an extra, the wheels were an extra and uprated intercooler. None of which i advised the insurance company of. I crashed it causing 5k worth of damage and the fixed it without any niggles at all.

If it goes can I have dibs on buying my k1 back Sad day mate, I put mines of the road at the end of august. Just ain't worth the risk. What actually happened, were u hard on throttle or do you think it was the Tyres. I was just thinkin about buying the falkens as for the price of 2 pzero's for front I can get 4 falkens.

exhaust will be alot louder, more raspier, all in all sound better. I have ordered some last week but they havent arrived yet. The will not pass an mot in the uk unless you find a friendly mot tester especially if u use the same garage to get them fitted as the test. The standard cats are quite restrictive so for more hp and better sound these are probs the way to go. Due to the resonators the do take away the annoying metally rattle slightly. Loads of vids on youtube.
