I can't agree at all. In 50k miles of driving the Zed on 452's I have never had any grip problems with them including the 2 nasty Winters with lots of snow. For the money they can't be beaten. They also wear extermely well. I think this is the point so many people miss, for the money, they perform ok. Yes they won't ever be as good as Michelins or Goodyears, but then they are half the price and my philosophy is that there are no such thing as 'ditch-finding tyres, only with finding drivers' drive within the limits of the tyre and mostly things will be fine. Well said Col and I absolutely agree, after my experience with the 452's on 19" Nismos that I had on the last 350 and they performed fine, wet or dry, including numerous spirited drives with other ZED owners in Wales and Scotland. Great value for the money But will the 453's be better on the ZEDs...............hmmmm

Here is a very good enough reason not to cheapskate on your spacers viewtopic.php?f=102&t=62092 And no problems since - enough said.

That's good news an would be great to be reminded what the combined total was as it was mega support from the membership

In all honesty, I've added them (to the 370) for the looks but the difference in handling etc is indectable. But I did without them on the previous 350's but then with the LMGT4's wheels they were not necessary IMO, even for the looks. I come from an era when wide wheels/spacers etc were known to prematurely knock out wheel bearings but I can't recall in the 6 years+ I have been on here anyone with either a 350 or a 370 posting up about shot bearings as a result of using spacers.

Not enough for you then to be tempted

Step forward Ricey

Mark has itemised the bits before: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=54314&start=0 (starts half way down on the first page) But as per the above post he has found more since then

Locked as items sold

You were a real lazy git then

Good news Jay, but it would still get those witness statements while its still fresh in minds? I find in my professional role its better to get witness advice sooner rather than later - in the same way the police do, as it could make the difference if crunch time does come

Great work Ian So where are the work in progress pics Col, or did you just sit back with a cold beer and watch

Belated birthday wishes - hope you had a good-un

Slight correction. Unlike the 350, the ecu on 370 does allow and keep performance increases, as it was found on mine - the Stillen Exhaust had added some extra 18bhp over stock (as claimed) for me a year or so earlier. BUT, those carrying out the uprevs have found the 370's are set to run overly rich from the factory whilst the mapping can be adjusted to suit personal preferences. What I found, and I believe it is much the same for others, is that although power increases can be maximised with the uprev to suit -the process of leaning off the mixture means the mpg is not adversely affected and can even be improved....as I have found on the motorway trips That said, the synchro rev works so well that together with the mods/uprev you just can't help yourself enjoying the combination so then the mpg goes back down But like anything to do with mpg (and if that really is a concern) it all comes back to how you use your right foot

Good advice and remember, the reason why we require a minimum of 100 posts when someone wants to sell their ZED on here is so that buyers can get a better appreciation of car and at least some if not all of its history

Yep, non GT but with the mods done that should really be no issue for potential buyers

I didn't buy any of my 3 ZEDs with economy in mind, I leave that consideration for the +1's transport

A little search, and for me and the photos on here are worth checking out, especially if you like something slammed (350's and 370's ) http://theautobible.blogspot.co.uk/2012 ... chive.html Samples - one from that link for wasso and one for the kerbs But getting back to the topic title

Moved your post from the 370 section

Good to see a 370 this side of the pond turning making some decent power You may have said somewhere so forgive me for asking if that is the case, but what tyres are you using to handle that output?

Initially thought it might have got caught up in a swollen river flood with that damage and then of course all the electrics would be shot, but the fact air-bags have gone off would seem to make that unlikely unless the cars was being driven at the time

UK update

Very tempted............ Negotiations in progress

Its a bugger ain't it - I'm sure I've doubled my gear changes since I've had the 370
