    Judder

    Im on 59k miles, original clutch, also high biting point/engagement and no slipage or juddering. I tried 4 other Zed's before buying mine and they all had high engaging clutches.
  2. Old thread I know but I just swapped my gearknob out for a new OEM one and I spent hours trying to find what was rattling. I was certain that it was one of the dash dials. This morning I realised it was coming from the gear knob grrrrr Will try some tape over the collet ring.
  3. LOL
  4. Very interesting
  5. ah cool so its OK then Still learning!
  6. I have never had an oil temp gauge in a car before so please excuse my ignorance. I would expect it to start off on 0 and then climb as the oil heats up. Mine goes straight to 3/4 on the dial when I first start her up and then slowly comes down to 1/3 on the dial and pulses up to mid way when I accelerate. After about 10 mins of driving it stays around the half way / 3/4 mark. ???
  7. Hate: Sat nav and bose tape deck which look like they were make in the 80's Love: Looking down the big @ss bonnet and feeling that 3.5 rumble
  8. Am I the only one who thinks Sunset is the nicest colour/finish?
  9. Dude.. you live about 1 mile from me (Kenley)
  10. kit: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-350z-Double-DinFascia-Adaptor-Pioneer-Stalk-Wheel-Car-Stereo-Kit-/400713048381?pt=UK_In_Car_Technology&hash=item5d4c5be13d The unit I am most interested in right now: http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/AppRadio/AppRadio+2+(SPH-DA100) As I say I havent actually bought these, they just seem to be what's needed from my own research. I have read that full Andriod double din devices are on their way so I might hold out till next year for one.
  11. I go by my temp gauge. As soon as its at the correct temp I let her go over 3k revs. Usually about 5 mins of driving
  12. I'm in the same boat. Look on ebay for the 350z kits they sell. It looks like they have everything you need. The thing that I am worried about is that the double din units are a mega tight fit. I spent Hours trying to make a kenwood fit into my old MR2 and it would always work its way out at the front over time.
  13. Congrats and welcome! I would comment on the pics but I cant see them as they are blocked on my work proxy. I bet she looks lovely though
  14. bah thats a pain. Cheers for the replies
  15. £U(k me you lot have a heavy foot! and yeh, 40 - 60 average but in 5th. I reset it on every drive. Cat pic above cracked me up
  16. The perferated door cards look a little blotchy under the light. i tried using interior cleaner on them and it hasn't helped. I am wondering if this is a common problem and if there is a solution I can use that will eliminate it? Cheers
  17. Reading this post made me angry. I'm so glad you caught the £u(3r and made him pay up. I received a door dent on the first day of ownership and she got away in her BMW whilst on the phone too. I literally saw her drive off as I was walking back to the Zed. Getting the door dent guy out on Saturday. It happened in my work carpark too! I'm on the lookout for her car. I might have to accidently fall into it with my knee out when I do find it Its people like this who make it stressful leaving your car unattended.
  18. I drive to Bexhill every weekend (A22) and this is my average MPG according to my on board computer. Are they accurate? If so I'm pretty chuffed with that. I was expecting it to be closer to 20 MPG Maybe I'm driving too slowly
  19. Probably made some sort of deal with Michelin and bought like 20,000+ or whatever to get a bargain price. It is Amazon after all. yep I took mine to AJS Tyres in Kingswood. they seemed pisd that I had go them for that price and charged me £72 to fit the tyres and balance the wheels. The wheels were loose in the back of my car (not the Zed lol) so they didnt have to remove/re fit them to the car. It took them 5 mins. Daylight robbery! i will never go there again. I warned everyone at my work what a rip off they are there. They actually looked pisd off having to do the work!
  20. I drive through Coulsdon every morning/night, not come across another Zed as yet
  21. Old thread I know, but I am in Bexhill every weekend in me Zed so say hello if you see me! You guys seen a silver 370z? I have seen it cruise around alot near the Legion pub / round about. Sounds mint.
  22. Put some winter tyres on em and swap em over just before they start sanding the roads in December. Thats what I am doing with mine.
  23. sounds like a deal to me.
  24. My MR2 Turbo ran rich naturally.. for safety apparently. Popped and banged the whole time with the Buddy club exhaust. De cat too. I had a very scortched bumper and people stayed the hell away from me in traffic that exhaust sounded like a didgeridoo it was music to my hears. I need to check out the Z one thinking about it..
  25. not a straight swap then.. thanks for the input
