So ben, that means your new wheels will give a 1.3mm bigger arch gap. Your a better man than me if you can see that by eye. Also new tyres have 7mm ish tread, if your old tyres were worn down to say 3mm that more than cancels it out anyway plus tyre pressures will effect it Anyway what i am trying to say is theres hardly any difference but if you want it lowered, just do it

Just had that exact kit Alex recommended fitted today. Big improvement on stock setup as i am sure others will testify. Biting point is much lower now as i like it. The high biting point takes getting used to with the 350 and many dont like it. Throttle response is better and there is a weight saving. Only negative is noise but this is minimal and i cant hear anything over my exhaust anyway One thing the guys at cougarstore did point out is the tee piece line used to bleed the clutch, the bleed part is in the wrong place (higher/lower than it should be, not sure which way round is right) so we had to improvise and it took about 30mins If your zed has never had a clutch/fly replacement and tbe csc has gone theres a good chance it needs doing anyway. Mines done 65k and the old clutch didnt have long left when it was removed. Of course thats all relative to how its been driven but if you dont know assume the worst

All depends on the profile of your tyre but if they are the same ie 245/45 then in effect you have a 1" bigger diameter so that means a half inch more ground clearence and half inch less arch gap. But normally when you go bigger wheels the profile of the tyre reduces to give a similer total diameter to original oe spec which means there will be little difference.

I guess the research and development over the last 5-10 years then has been aimed at EVs to a point where they have overtaken the "stats" of fuel cell cars rendering them kind of an also ran. Bit like VHS and Betamax, Blue-ray and HD-DVD etc..

So basically things are exactly the same now as 9 years ago when the clarity was released? You can lease one in California because that is the only place that has hydrogen filling stations. So back to the point. Fuel cell cars are cheaper than EVs. Have very similar power, range and MPG as petrol/deisel cars and zero emissions. So is the main thing holding them back the cost of infrastructure and the oil companies and governments not willing to fund it or is there other issues?

On a sidenote. Whatever happened to hydrogen fuel cell cars they were trialling in California i think. Was on a topgear episode several years back. They were billed as the future. Only emission being water and powered by the most abundant element on the planet. I know they said the infrastructure would cost billions. Has money spoken or was there some other issue?

Because they give you the closest overall diameter to OEM spec. You could do 40 profile but i think the tyres would look too chuncky and you then *may* have issues with traction control and your speedo reading incorrect. Below is a pic of my rears with 40 profile on 18" rims

Yep. Having new clutch and 2-way diff fitted in 2 weeks so will be a good run in.

I have 245/275 combo at 40 profile on my 18's (same width wheels as you) You would have to be 35 profile on 19's but the width is spot on, prob more straight tyre at 265 on rears but its splitting hairs

Pretty sure it would be "stretching" it putting 18" tyres on 19" rims

I have booked 12:00 Looking forward to it and meeting everyone

They are the same style and offset as my ssr wheels. Mine are 8.5 front and 9.5 rear but with 245/40 and 275/40 tyres which is prob what you may go for (closest match to oem diameter) I can tell you there is plenty of room for calipers, about an inch space to stock brembos. I had the rear arches rolled before i got them just to be sure but am fairly certain they would have been fine without. Car is on coilovers lowered around 20/25mm

Thats what i thought. I saw the silver but its the internal pillar, assumed just the exterior was wrapped matt black. And why would someone go to the hassle of advertising a false car and saying its the only one in uk with 4 seats?

How has that thing even passed an MOT? No rear seatbelts or seat buckles to be seen Love to see what the V5 says as well

I agree. Top of the rock is a much better view and overall experience than empire state if you dont have time for both. The sea,air and space museum on the hudson river is worth a visit if your interested in that kind of thing. They have a battleship docked with lots of fighter planes through the ages plus a concord you can go inside as well as a nuclear sub docked you can go inside.

Yes, those kits are correct. It will cost just as much to put it back oem and you will still need a full alignment done

With a 30mm drop you will need adjustable front and rear camber arms and adj toe bolts to get back to oem specs Because all the suspension parts are essentially connected you cant adjust one without effecting the other and the standard zed components only allow the smallest of adjustment, not sure you can dven adj camber. I put the rear arms and toe bolts on only as its a cheaper option and its more important as far as im aware for the rear driven wheels to have less camber and bigger contact patch for acceleration. A small amount of negative camber on front is beneficial for most situations, hey some people add even more than the drop will give you, that coupled with the £450 cost plus fitting plus geo setup is why i have left it as is.

Yep, list is on previous page, just copy and paste if you want to be in

I have a bosch s4 005 60a which i got from eurocarparts. Putting that in google with halfords at the end brings up a HCB005 62a which to the untrained eye looks the same type and size. With 4 year guarantee

My 350 has coilovers on and lowered around 25mm. I appreciate every zed will be slightly different but below photo will give you an idea of what to expect geometry wise. Bottom left pic when car first went in for alignment after coilovers fitted. Top left pic, after alignment setup done, as you can see there is very little adjustment for stock parts Right pic, after fitting adjustable rear camber arms and adj toe bolts, full adjustment (-3 to +3) achievable I am happy with the setup now as camber is -1.3 all round but would require front adj camber arms to get it fully green. The rear camber kit cost approx £150 (eibach) the fronts are more like £450 so that is for the future.

It doesn't match as such but is a direct replacement if that makes sense. I think the diameter of the st/steel is bigger to allow for a few extra horses and the back box is smaller then you have an option of resonated or not which will add in a mid box. Mines resonated and is still very loud. The y pipe is optional as are de-cats or HFCs. They still connect to existing brackets and mountings though so no fabricating or fudging is required. Speak to Mitz at cougarstore if you need any info. He fitted mine and has fitted loads for members on here.

And no issues with mot i will add

I firstly put the cobra cat back exhaust on, was a lovely deep burble ticking over and deep roar moving up the revs, then recently added the cobra HFCs which now introduce a lot of rasp above 4000rpm so i get the best of both. I love it

If you still want CL pads give Mitz a call at Cougarstore. Just booked my zed in for some work beginning of next month inc new CL6 pads and he got hold of some straight away for me although he said it is usually 4-5 weeks. Worth a phonecall though, you could have them within a week.
