  1. I would get yourself down to Abbey Motorport if i was you Allan. They are based near J6 off the M25, so not quite in Berks but probs no further from you than Bristol, and they are a top bunch of people who really know their stuff Had my car serviced with them last time and just had uprev/exhaust done there too - my zed wont be going anywhere else for its tlc now!
  2. Si (my name) + zed = Sized Easy peasy
  3. Sized

    Decided!

    This is the set up Mark @ Abbey recommends. It's what i'll be changing to shortley. Indeed, that's where I got them fitted Crackin' performance so far, and the slotted discs look much cooler than the OEM brembos
  4. Hi all, Thought you guys and girls may be interested to have a browse through this if you haven't seen it yet............. http://www.sonyinsider.com/2010/11/15/t ... turismo-5/ Amuse Nismo 380RS Superleggera This had better be the best racing game ever though when/if it comes out!

    Speedy, have you checked out DBA rotors? I recently got some of the slotted 4000 series fitted (fronts) as my OEM discs were shot, and along with the Ferodo pads mentioned above they're great - powerful with loadsa feel. The rotors are c£300 for a pair
  6. 100% as they are for me - makes the back end look nice and mean with the diffuser/wing Not a fan of Lexus style lights at all.
  7. Just got hold of the thicker matt for my boot and as well as not moving around you also get the embroidered 350z logo on it - looks miles better than the thin crappy matt, and well worth getting
  8. Sorry to hear about that Airro. Hope you get it sorted quick. Yep me too. Luckily my local Sainsys has a nice big car park for the weekly run there - I park right away from the store where it's always empty!
  9. Good luck with the sale Dave, that sounds like a great price for someone Finally made my mind up and have my deposit down with Abbey for Uprev/resonated decats/XYZ with race cat How is the Milltek? Once Xmas/New Year is out of the way I'm thinking I'll probably replace my system aft of the y-pipe at some point so interested to see how you get on with that.
  10. Very very very Do they do different weapons?! You could start a vodka army!
  11. Ah yes, the broom cupboard. Ably anchored by this little chap (with assistance from some bloke called Andy)........
  12. POWER EXTREME!!!! Amazing stuff But the king of childhood cartoons has to be.......... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbVNZ-cghz0
  13. rtbiscuit you are a man with excellent taste in cartoons! Transformers and Mask were classic. Anyone remember Centurions??
  14. I do indeed remember that! Classic stuff. Hope you all enjoy this too (and that this youtube embedding lark has worked for me!)......... What the hell was 'Supermacromation' anyway?!?

    UpRev insurance

    Update on this after speaking with Ollie @ Sky, and basically confirms what you thought MrLizard. As far as the underwriter is concerned, an ECU remap on any car attracts a standard increase in premium in light of the fact that if you have other mods the power gains could be significant (in the case of the zed I guess FI etc). So now I just have to decide whether to bite the bullet and go for uprev! Must say thanks to Ollie for a very speedy response on this and Sky's continued good customer service

    UpRev insurance

    Haha tbh I didn't(!), and the only thing they asked was how much extra power it would give. I said hardly anything, 10bhp if I'm lucky and that was that. Might PM Ollie @ Sky as the increase does seem pretty excessive and I could have explained it a lot better to them..........!

    UpRev insurance

    Sorry to hear that Haydn. I took out a new policy with Sky this year and have just got off the phone with them to see what effect adding uprev to my car would have on my policy. They will cover it......for a 25% premium increase. Ouch Unsure weather to go ahead now!
  18. Just sent you a PM Cheers! Mat posted yesterday so should arrive by week-end! Enjoy!! BTW Can I interest you in a private plate for your Zed? Mat was waiting for me when I got home from work this evening. It's great nick too so many thanks Rob, top stuff Private plate looks tempting but my next outlay is for buddy club pro spec so no can do on that one! Bets of luck with selling it though.
  19. Yep I def wished I'd put something on it come the return journey! Been meaning to pick up a luggage net for my boot and will try dropping the fork out next time I think! Have taken to getting on the train with the bike recently to get outside the M25.......or taking advantage of mates with more 'practical' (boring) cars Any of you guys seen/used one of these.......... http://boofsquire.com/ Look pretty cool but not sure I want risk damaging the crappy Nissan paint!
  20. Very nice looking exhaust Look forward to hearing sounds clips!
  21. Saw the pics of a zed consuming mountain bike a few pages back and thought you guys might be interested in this.......it can be done without removing fork/handlebars......but I wouldn't recommend it! Bit of a ball ache. Involves lots of swearing, moving of electric seats, and extreme danger to leather upholstery......... http://www.flickr.com/photos/54695120@N05/5076135515/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/54695120@N05/5076137521/
  22. Not sure how accurate this is but it allows you to enter what you're importing, where from etc, and will give you an estimate of the cost. Found it when I was thinking of sourcing a Nismo exhaust from America..........hope it's of some use! http://www.dutycalculator.com/
  23. Crackin', I'll def take the boot mat for 40 quid. Plate is tempting but trying to save some pennies atm! Where abouts are you?
