welcome! ice to see another Northern Irish Zed on the forum. I'm in the middle of deciding what to do with my headlights currently too. Ive a rev up so slightly different headlights, but equally faded and they also have a little plastic piece in the unit itself that yellows too lol

Welcome aboard. another fella zed owner from comber here. enjoy the car!

literally coming on to post this lol got this on my to do list as the little square on mine is very yellow now lol

Hey and welcome. Always nice to see another NI Zed on board!

ok cool, any hints or experience on best was to set up? I'll be following the instructions, but anything else helpful to know?

Aw worth a shot. I managed to pick one up through Black Friday sales on their site. can you give me any first hand insight into them? Make a nice difference etc? Thx

don't suppose you ever had more of these sitting about?

thanks and seriously cannot wait!!

Big update albeit a little way off was chatting to fellas at jdmdistro recently and an opportunity came up, but risky but too good an opportunity to miss. Currently the seats are sitting in a car they just bought and in some Japanese port lol recaro sr3 lemans “confetti” with custom low sliding rails gonna be a long 2 month wait!!

Sounds like ya need to sell it to me lol 😂

this is all looking great? did you ever get round to fitting the coolerworx? How did you find it? toying with heading that direction myself lol

yup indeed lol but they surprised everyone with their driving skills also. both could seriously skid a car lol

Really recommend anachem automotive local NI company but honestly I’ve tried it all and by far their wheel cleaner (ph neutral) and pre-wash is the very best I’ve used

Snapped on the way to LzFest at Mondello

had the fun of a 600 mile round trip this weekend to AdamLZfest here in mondello. Was amazing to see the worlds top drifters and YouTubers (adamlz, jimmy oaks, colette Davis, James Deane, Becky Evans etc etc) all in the one place and just drifting the whole weekend. the zed didn't miss a beat entire weekend and got a fair bit of attention, esp with the exhaust still being crazy loud a friend caught me on the drive home

Was a local Japanese show recently. few photos from it Below.

No huge updates of late other than another service and coolant flush and change next little plan is to clean the variable valve solenoids and adjust the standard level of the headlights to make the throw a little longer on dipped Few photos to finish as always. This was from a short run from a local jdm group I’m part of

slight update more for my own records. The ecu headed off recently to Horsham Developments Being the later models, my zed can take the multi map options, so have the performance map, valet mode and flame/pops n bangs map added. Whilst at it I also purchased the 8mm plenum spacer for the intake side of the v6 engine. Map took my current mod's and spacer into consideration and also removed the factory throttle limiters in 1st & 2nd gear. Feel wise the cars power delivery is certainly smoother across the range and id say the intake note sound more metallic and raw. is it faster ? feels more urgent and livelier in the pick up, but looking honestly the spacer is maybe accepted as a 10bhp mod if mapped and then the map itself, so maybe a 20-25bhp gain in total? was pleased with the performance at the RMS run (my local club) yesterday, seemed to outrun an e46 m3 and sat with some stuff I thought would have outran me. everyone seems to find the exhaust hilarious and it makes me smile which is the important thing even gave cough cough Porsche gt4 a run ha ha.... (total lies, I got taught a lesson lol) Car is running sweet as a nut and getting a full service and coolant flush this week to keep it this way. Next job is the one everyone hates and im off rattle hunting. A small vibration behind the head unit has started at 2.5k and has been exaggerated by the non-flex'd Y pipe and titanium exhaust lol. sorry for the essay, here's another photo

Well that’s the ECU shipped off to @Jez @ H-Dev going for 4 maps inc a flame map (literally just for the child in me) and with the agency power and decats it should be ‘productive’ i literally cannot wait and also fitting a 8mm plenum spacer whilst at it.

thanks, much too loud for me on a daily basis (used occasionally on decent days for work runs etc) so will be off end of July and for sale most likely lol

Short drive by with Agency Power above is a little YouTube clip showing the sound at a 2nd gear pull

So massive show here in Ireland over the weekend im handy with an iPhone but got some proper photos sent through

Completed a bumper tuck today. Went the cabletie route so there where no screws in bumper etc so it’s entirely reversable

2 recent photos the new exhaust Agency Power Single Exit with decats (yes it’s loud lol)
