  1. i had the Arosa s 1.0 as my first car was great and insurance was cheap!!!

     

    i had the original shape and they do seem to have pedal box issues, sometimes crunches into reverse is a sign until they give way like mine did haha but its abit of welding to put right when they do go

    Apart from that a very reliable car motorway jourmeys not pleasent with the little 1.0 i had revving high just to do 70!

  2. Anybody coming up from the somerset area? got myself and two other zeds heading up from the weston super mare/ clevedon area think we will be meeting at the chippenham hotel for 6:45 if theres a big turn out there

  3. Hello all

     

    When rolling I hear a clicking from my rear wheel area, I don't think its the typical axle/ drive shaft click

     

    I've just had my hand brake adjusted by a garage..

     

     

    So my question is when the rear wheels are off the ground in neutral with the hand brake off should they spin fairly freely similar to the front?

     

  4. Cheers guys!! thought id made a massive mistake and bought some useless spacers hahaha

     

    seems like the question helped out a good few of us :D

     

    All to be ready for japfest :) do people normal get the tracking checked after fitting? or even 4 wheel alignment???

  5. Need to install my front spacers and got the steel pin preventing them from going on!

     

    Do i just undo the 10mm bolt and the metal spacer/sleve comes off as well? and is safe to leave it out?

    cheers

  6. There is around 3 of us with Zeds heading up from weston super mare and clevedon area, we could go via chippenham and all head up together!

     

    Just got to speak to the other regarding the stupidly early start ;) haha

  7. Hello

     

    Installing decats hopefully, how do i go about declaring this to the insurance company? is this just a aftermarket exhaust change?

     

    A lot of people have them on here and just wondering how you insure them

     

     

    Cheers

  8. Had the same problem after fitting my carbon bonnet with vents, the water runs down the engine,gearbox and removes the grease from the clutch cylinder. Cars after 05? Have it built inside the bell housing or something but older cars like mine is visible from under the car and easy enough to grease. At work so cant upload a pic but if you need more info I will help you out later with one.

     

    if you could upload a photo this would be great! as mine was a sound which was not related to the pedal or spring

     

    a sound which could be heard from inside and more so outside

  9. The dreaded clutch squeak! i had this but for some unknown reason it dissappeared!! sometimes happens but rarely... when it was bad i was worried but cant imagine its anything too serious

  10. Hey all

     

    Im from Weston Super mare and would be well up for a meet, got a GM 350z and a mate of mine has black jdm 350 as well, cheddar/mendip sounds good, castle combe is a fair old drive and the bangers are always good fun

  11. The Problem with changing the colour is the rays look sooooo good the colour they are, they are bright, stand out and look a good size wheel

     

    I got a gunmetal zed with the standard silver wheels and they look a good contrast.. if i was to refurb them in a darker colour would i loose the Wow factor of the wheel?

     

    its a hard decision i much perfer the picture you put up than the darker wheels but its all preference i think i want to make my car mine by changing the wheel colour but in doing so not doing the car any benefit

  12. Isn't front and sides already tinted from the factory making any additional tint illegal?

     

    Correct! tinting them will make your car over the legal limit and you will get pulled over!

     

    Unless your doing it yourself with cheap tint and dont mind ripping it off when you get pulled over go for it! if your paying to have it done it might be al ot more of a painful mistake

     

    Plus window tinting is a bitch to do it yourself!!

  13. Cant understand people that spend loads of money on cone filters such as the Pop charger... Its a cone filter with abit of metal as a heat sheild and your paying around £120 for it?

     

    When as shown above you can get a decent filter for little money!!
