  1. Hi Completely new to the decat scene but was thinking to try it out as picked up a pair. Will it cause anything to go bad as such (sorry to ask this if it's obvious)? Anyway to stop the engine management light from triggering too? Thanks to all that view and comment ! Much appreciated
  2. Hi everyone, Considering a temporary colour change for the zed, anyone had any experience with either vinyl wrapping or plasti dipping? Thanks for any comments,
  3. Hi all, Wondering if anyone has has similar problems when the clutch is pressed and makes a squeal like noise? (I've attached a short video). It's louder from the outside than inside and it's just bugging me. Any help/advice will be much appreciated https://vimeo.com/104433944 Many thanks,
  4. Coming across this post makes me want to paint mine 😄 did u have to use a primer or just a high heat paint of some sort?
  5. Thanks for the reply Alex and yep planning jdm to brembo swap..could you message me the price of these ?
  6. thanks for all the replies..managed to get them for a cheap price. Anyone here done the brembo conversion before, was it difficult ? Thanks
  7. Hi, Just wondering do these brembos look damaged / missing something? as planning to get these for my import with non brembos and wanted to know if I need buy anything in particular to fit them. Thank you for any advice.
  8. Thanks for the replies guys. Yea I've just fitted a cat back exhaust so next mod for me most likely a remap.. Wondering anyone based near London that has had their zed remapped ? Interested in a meet up and let me drive/sit in the car to see if there's a huge difference ? I'll pay someone 😠haha.
  9. Thanks for replies.. ðŸ‘👠Yea will defo be calling around to get some info. Was cautious whether mileage (currently) + remap cause any problems as such for the engine in the long run... As I've had a similar experience before 😅
  10. Hi all, Apologies if this sounds silly.. But wondering if all zeds can get a remap or does the engine need to be checked in any way for compatibility? Many thanks for any input, as looking to get my done soon.
  11. Thanks for the replies ..it's put my mind at rest for now as I'm not the only one with shaving coming out 😄 I've seen differentials listed on eBay (as I don't wna pay £8k for aftermarket), anyone know do all diff's fit any zeds as mines a import ?
  12. Hi all, changed my diff oil at a garage today and was told that there was a lot of metal shavings around the sump plug - mechanic said differential may need changing. Is this true that the metal shavings indicates the diff is wearing out and needs a new one due to the shavings? Any input from previous experience of others would be very appreciated
  13. Ok thanks for the replies ppl. Decided to take plugs out to inspect and they look bad ish (pic below). Would you say changing the rocker cover gaskets and/or covers itself is a DIY possibility ?
  14. Thanks for all the replies. Will use the advice on here 👠Are there any other ways to check the engine to see if it's in 100% condition as worried as it's a bit high mileage with being 88k? Thanks .
  15. Thanks for the replies ppl .. Completely forgot to add the year, it's a 53 plate. Is the aerial replaceable ? As it looks snapped off where u can't twist it off anymore (pic below) ?
  16. Hi all, Wondering if anyone thinks this is a good price for a zed: £5000, gt coupe, black, orange/tan leather, 88k miles? Only problem I noticed from looking is the aerial had snapped off... Thanks
  17. Hi, Wanted to ask other Zed owner's opinions. I found oil on the spark plugs whilst changing them recently. I read around that the rocker covers and gaskets may need changing. But I'm currently on bit of a budget and won't be able to change these yet. So wondering if I continue to drive the Zed and top up the oil levels regularly. Will this do any damage to the engine ? Any input will be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
  18. Anyone know where I can get replacement parts for the battery clamp as noticed mines missing bits and not clamping the battery down ?
  19. Hellooooo all Was wondering if anyone else has regularly (twice for me) experienced the negative wire of the battery coming off/loose on their zed, even after tightening ? :/
  20. Just realised mines come off too 😱 ... Anyone know where it's meant to attach onto ?
  21. I was planning to buy a japspeed exhaust, but after this experience of yours 😱 lol. ... Wondering if anyone knows if a japspeed exhaust fits imports ? Thanks.
  22. Come across this .. Wondering anyone used an japspeed exhaust? Will it fit an import ?
  23. Thanks for the advice ... And yesss my bad, i was in a rush and posted in wrong section 😅 I had my belts replaced not too long ago by a garage, maybe they over/under tightened... :/
  24. Hi everyone, Wanted some advice when starting my car up, sometimes I get this weird squeal noise that comes for a few seconds and then disappears. Has anyone experienced this or got any idea of what this is before I take it to a garage? Thank for any input, much appreciated ðŸ‘ðŸ˜
  25. Thanks ppl.. I'll ask around today for best fitting price. Also, is all that's needed is mainly just the exhaust to get a nice sporty tone from revs ? I just want mine to be a bit louder..ðŸ˜
