    OMG!!!!!!

    Can't believe you're selling it.

    Someone is going to get a belter of a Zed:thumbs:

    Wheels and tyres alone are worth nearly £3k meaning it's the equivalent of getting it for £7k which is a steal!

    I know! I would really love to keep it but wouldn't be able to afford a Mk1 Nismo without selling it.

    As you can see in the short time I’ve owned the car I’ve looked after it extremely well and it drives like a dream. The car is currently getting the front bumper resprayed as it is the only bit of the car that was letting it down. I would like it to go to a good home, not in any rush to sell. Any questions please feel free to ask.

  3. Just a couple of minor updates,

     

    New Rear Badge, something so satisfying about a brand new OEM badge!

    A great office view :D

    The petrol cap was annoying me since I got the car, I had lightly cleaned it a couple of times during a wash but always seemed to not come up very nice, I was about to order a new one but I thought let me take it off and properly try and revive it. A short while later...factory fresh!

  4. I use Auto Finesse Tyre Spot Pad. They last very well and you can use with or without the handy puck depending on the profile of the tyre you are doing.

    One thing that makes me absolutely cringe is when I see someone using a dirty applicator. Absolutely defeats the object of cleaning the tyre in the first place and then just leaves a layer of black sludge on the tyre, then in most cases slings all up the car and in the wheel arch :doh:

     

    Important to wash your applicator out, but depending on what tyre dressing you use sometimes this isn’t possible. 

  5. Very nice!

     

    I wouldn’t recommend the Auto Finesse Caramic wipes. C5 & Carbon Collective Platinum Wheels are decent if you are doing it yourself. If you do take it to a detailer like @ilogikal1 said make sure you go to someone who is using a good product :thumbs:

    I'm flattered, but I think THIS is one of the cleanest Zeds in the country......

     

    Then there's members like ilogical and davey_83 who are in a next level of clean if you enjoy reading of detailing exploits.

    Many more that I haven't mentioned (not meaning to leave anyone out) that I can't remember off the top of my head :thumbs:

    You are too kind, thank you for the mention! Anyone who reads your thread can apprciate how clean yours is and the beauty of the ultimate stock look a 350 can have :in_love:

    So a quick update, had the wheels powdercoated and the MPS4S'S fitted, been on the car over a month now, bedded the tyres in and took it easy on them for a few hundred miles, first impressions were good, immediately noticed road comfort was better, road noise is still on par with what I had on before.

     

    Managed to get out on a few very hot days down some country lanes for some relatively hard driving, all I can say is wow, the car changes direction so much better, feels way more balanced. The level of grip on offer completely exceeded my expectations to the point where I feel I'm the limiting factor driving the car and not the car itself. I can corner that hard that the front oem mudflaps actually scrape the tarmac and the car feels like it still has more to give! 

     

    The rears still spin up in the wet but a rwd car with 300+bhp you kind of expect that. Launching the car in dry conditions used to result in snaking off down the road, now it just digs in and goes, not a single bit of wheelspin off the line. 

     

    Recently done a top speed event and hit speeds of upto 170mph and the car still felt extremely stable and planted.

     

    I would say the only negative is that they seem to chuck a heck of a lot of stones and debris up into the arches, not sure if this is due to compound and tread pattern but it's definitely more noticeable. 

     

    All in all I would highly recommend these tyres, they have completely transformed the car, it just feels so much better than before in every single way.

    Best thing I did putting MPS4S on my car, glad you're enjoying them too!
