  1. zeds not bad on the track, its well balanced and controllable and not to stroppy to hold on the limit. brakes are your weak area as said above, the only down side is the zeds weight, it can sometimes feel like piggy back riding a fat girl round the 100 metres. and you loose a little of the agility with that amount of weight transfer. needless to say i've had fun in the zed on track. its by no means a dull track car. just needs setting up.
  2. vtec's pretty bullet proof as long as they are maintained. wankels need new tips due to the design of the engine; nothing to do with the speed it revs too. i get good economy from my vtec compared to the zed, and would say the performance is almost identical to the zed, but the way its delivered is very different. Vtec is a personal preference thing, i personally love it as it suited my driving style, but its the old horses for courses.
  3. Defo to that idea would be very interested. Rich have you got any idea on cost for these if you start covering them regularly? i can do them now, but have no rear strut to use on an exchange basis. i'll try and sort one out this week, but i can;t gaurentee when i'll get one. if you don't mind being with out one for a week, you can send it to me and i'll do it and post back.
  4. if your trying to ring the last bit of power out of everything; i wouldn't put the nismo exhaust on it or nismo y pipe or the nismo intakes, they all make minimal gains and in some cases loses. very expensive too, especially when there is better kit out their for either the same price or less.
  5. sorry neil its way to raspy for my liking
  6. mine used to say forum fairy but i got it changed back
  7. i get stopped about my S2k quiet alot ; its a nice feeling that others show an interest, but difficult sometimes when youjust want to get out of the petrol station but they wont stop talking
  8. i just get the pi$$ taken out of me post counts; count for sh1t
  9. Husky - long story cut short, when talking about the fact sarnies name had been changed husky said i don't like having a plain title and then low and behold the forum gods changed it for him sarnie - special forum status becuase he posted so much. question is why havent some of the mods gone pink now they too have crossed the 20,000 mark nurrish - not so sure about, but i think it relates to something he posted donkies ago
  10. yes mate PM me for details
  11. i didn't get my own car till i was 20, but i lived in teh highest insurance bracket in the country at that time; good old CV1 anyways my first car was a 1.4 rover 214 91 reg and that was 900 smackers third party fire and theft. i have never and never will pay over that for insurance. those who agree to be shafted and pay over 1.5 k for their insurance are crazy in my mind, but fair play if they have the money to burn.
  12. make smart cars the only form of under 21 transport, can only carry one passenger so no showing of with a car full of youngsters, fit limiters and trackers. job done. but offer the cheaper residuals. one of my sixth formers has an insurance policy which fits a tracker to the car, so it knows if he speeds through areas or breaks the limits, it also limits him to 6000 a year mileage, and clcks that too. if he breaks the speed limit i think it even contacts his parents.
  13. will do, got some other bits to post up this week, its just gettign the time to finish it all.
  14. These were the ones i made a few years back with real carbon, not originals i know but give you a rough idea.
  15. I can Carbon Wrap rear strut covers for people if they would like me to. i already do B pillars on an exchange basis, and have some other new bits coming soon, happy to start doing the rear strut covers as well.
