  1. Nice sign-off but look forward to seeing you back sometime in a 370
  2. Looks good Take care in these conditions if your last 'wheels' were MR2 based, as 276 horses through the rear wheels in a ZED is an altogether different animal.......but given the right conditions then......
  3. My thoughts as well Stew
  4. Especially when they could be more wisely playing poker until dawn, eh
  5. Welcome to the forum In answer to your query check this out: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=62 The second link has some really useful stuff on wheels and tyres and on the 2nd page there is a calculator to give you the answer you are looking for. Many ZED owners have upgraded from 17" (on import models only) and I am sure someone may be along who can recommend a good set-up they have used
  6. Their hot chocolate is to die for
  7. Great news Andrew and didn't Fran get the Nismo exhaust just before Christmas - what more could a girl want Love those pics Hope you all had a a great time and a special thanks Stan for the camera advice - the TV playback pics (movie and still) from the Panasonic HDC-HS20 Vid camera that June bought me are just awesome
  8. Good news - thread locked in the circumstances
  9. I'll have a look at that lot when I've got a spare hour
  10. Want to edit your first post then
  11. Have to agreed with Steve & Mark and apart from which my left foot ain't ready to be made redundant
  12. Definitely a facelift import and maybe it has not been tinkered if it was imported brand new with Jap spec, and the one owner suggestion is really true
  13. Very clear and thorough Steve - an excellent guide
  14. Now you're talking - if you got the cash and want the wow factor in winter, a Bowler will be hard to beat.
  15. Be interesting to see how Mercedes dishes out the engines...............and the upgrades.
  16. You ain't left me much to add The one thing I learnt way back from my trialing days is that if you find yourself sliding downhill and dabbing the footbrake and 1st gear is doing nothing to help, is to use the handbrake (lightly) in conjunction with the steering to help control the direction of the slide. Rather like doing handbrake turns but just enough to help the direction you are traveling. In that way you can have some control over where the car eventually ends up. This is the one time I favour diesels - anyone who has driven a 4x4 diesel knows that dropping it into low gear on the slippest of slopes and literally taking your feet off all pedals and letting the torque in the engine braking do the work, will bring you to stop with no lock-ups. Unless the slope is that steep and its sheet ice so that the sheer weight of the car means that only throwing out an anchor will stop you
  17. Cheers for the offer, Sarnie but I've got Coops literally 5 mins away who's offered to garage and nanny her. Great result - thats why this forum goes from strength to strength - there is always help round the corner - nice one Coops
  18. Yeah, better stop creaming this as I herd Martin goes all sour and moody and starts scratching his bullocks if he sees a load of old bull being written
  19. viewtopic.php?f=29&t=30521 emails are filling up with this one
  20. If you still have any problems - pm me - I am a qualified planner and help people out who have problems with Local Planning Authorities. Some of the comments made on your thread reflect the understandable confusion and frustration about the planning system and there is a lot of misunderstanding.

    Nismo

    All fits quite easliy in the car when out of the boxes but suggest you spread some protective sheeting around. The centre pipe is best rested against the passenger seat (again protected and reclined and with the headrest removed). I use bungy straps to help hold the piecs in place and use large handbags in which to put the parts, expecially the OEM that is coming off.
  22. Do you have a Zed or are you looking to buy one? I might be looking to buy one. Are they rear wheel drive. I also heard there is a beam in the boot that restricts space. is this true? Also, what's the difference between the GT pack and non GTpack, with JDM pack? Bob You are asking questions that are regularly get asked and are well covered in the FAQ section on the forum - the search button is your friend and all the answers will be there. But I am surprised you need to ask the question as to whether a 350 is rear wheel drive after 68 posts - and the answer, is yes it is
  23. Needs spacers and lowering
  24. Yeah, I gave you a wave on Salisbury Plain but you flew past so quick I guess you didn't see me
  25. You think right
