    Ode to Zed

    Did a 1100 mile round trip from Hertfordshire to just south of Aberdeen this weekend in the Zed. She performed beautifully, I was so impressed. Such a great GT car. Took in some of the more scenic routes as well as bombing up and down the motorways.
  3. I was in the F plate black one - I didnt think to check on here if anyone was going as not been to any meets yet... next time!
  4. Stickered my Z up last weekend. Can't wait. Not been for a few years.
  5. Thanks mate, will give them a ring.
  6. Can anyone recommend a wheel refurb place near St Albans? Off-side front is looking a bit worse for wear due to me thinking I was in a slimline Lotus not a bulging 350Z! Wilja
  7. I have a question, not about which type of tyre to choose (although I have spent hours trawling through the various threads). I need to replace my two rear tyres fairly soon - they are Bridgestone Potenzas. The front tyres are not nearly as worn. Should I replace all four at the same time? I was not going to go for Bridgestones again having read the reviews - debating which brand to buy currently and not after any further advice on this in response to this post - and is it more important to replace the fronts if not getting Bridgestone rears i.e. is it important the fronts match the rears??
  8. As the title suggests really! Just need a service. Recommendations welcome.
  9. How are u selling the Merc? Back to the dealer??
  10. Wasnt me Matty, but would always give a flash back. It is one of my criteria when buying a car... must have a forum and must be the kind of car where people flash to say hi! Might come and watch the drifting but probably wont take part - I have a fwd track car for hammering as the tyres are a bit pricey on the Z.
  11. Hi Mate, i live in Berkhamsted and can highly recomend Ross at Japex who are based in Kings Langley Get guy and know his stuff. Cheers. Do you know what their hourly rate is?
  12. ZMANALEX - Sent you a PM - hopefully you got it but looks like it is stuck in my outbox! Part required.
  13. Hi, I'm in st Albans too and have a black 350Z. And I found out recently a mate from st Albans has a grey one but yet to meet up with him. Let me know if there are any meets.
  14. Thanks - yeah I did realise the thread was old but still relevant - the car is older! Will take it to a garage and see what the diagnosis is. If parts required will ping you a PM. Cheers
  15. My Z overheated today, boiled the coolant. This thread was really useful. Can anyone recommend an indy garage near St Albans please?
  16. That's awesome. I don't think the exhaust is standard!
  17. Yes there is just a cradle in there. Where can I get the adapter from??
  18. Hi, there is a phone kit installed in my Z - not sure what make or model of phone it is currently for, but there is a connection in the storage unit behind the handbrake (by the heated seats switches) for the phone. How easy is it to change this to an iPhone adapter? And will this work with the steering wheel controls in terms of being able to answer the phone whilst driving? And will this charge the iphone when plugged in there? And is it at all possible to connect via this method and play your iTunes or is that a step too far! I am generally rubbish with electronics (as you can probably tell by the questions) so noddy answers only please. W
  19. Thanks.. does anyone have a link to one for sale? How much are they etc?
  20. Got it, drove it, washed it, waxed it, drove it some more, scraped the underside of the front already on my steep driveway (used to have an Elise which got the hell beaten out of it by this!). Love it.
  21. Hi, Tried searching for this topic without success so apologies if it has been discussed before, but how do you stop things flying round the boot and killing you in the event of heavy braking etc? Is there netting you can get to at least cordon off the rear section under the strut brace? Advice welcome, thanks!
