And also there are no holes of the front badges!!!!!!! had no holes on mine on the rear!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, only on the front!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1. If you had holes on the rear how on earth did you manage to stick the badge upside down No idea Definetly holes though. Thought only the roadster didn't have holes as per when Hanel changed his Have you had yours from new?

All the zed info you could possibly need can be found right here. For free. For me the £35 was never the issue. It was the attitude of the paid up members / mods towards no paid up members.

That is a very good point.

He's trying to entice you to contact him for further details or pics. Once he has your email address he then bombards you with spoof emails from eBay and paypal etc hoping you will give away some personal details. If the ad was genuine he would post up as many pics as he could

Bump Most stuff less than 12hrs to go

They do look good. For cart wheels

One car aint gonna hurt anybody is it? Mindue it is a Beemer

I'm also quite up for the Duxford meet, now Convoy?

Not as much as your car

You reckon it was one of his pals inflating the auction

Noooooooo. We need you to sell us stuff we don't really need We love you

The Nismo drones a bit TBH I thought the 80 mph drone was going to bug me at first but I soon got used to it. It doesn't bother me either, just thinking that the cats might push it over the limit for a daily driver.

Nearly 50

Been watching the prices that zeds are going for on eBay lately (). I was very suprised when this non GT 54 plate went for over £24k http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... &rd=1&rd=1

Gonna get the cats fitted soon. Going to wait and see if I like the sound as I use the zed every day. The Nismo drones a bit so the addition of the cats and plenum may be too much for me to cope with every day. We'll see.

mate I have no will to sell the Z so it's a very long term project. £20k is debatable, for the route I'll take, when I take it, but that's a story for some other time Once the car is paid off then I can start saving for FI done properly and get a runabout for everyday driving. I don't see me selling the Z anytime soon, hence I don't think of it as money being in it. I'm not sure Giles has actually had the car off the road for the whole year, maybe it's been on-off. Again afaik it's his toy and he doesn't drive it daily, so he's probably not bothered. Plus, being the OC chairman, surely pride comes into the equation? (ie modded it, FId, blown up, rebuilt instead of giving up and cut your losses ) Plus, as I said if he can afford it, why not. But how long before you have paid the zed off so you can start???

SFA?

Oy you

I'd prefer this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1965-Ford-Mustang ... dZViewItem

Is it the old skool shape? I'd love a black soft top version of the original golf

Pics? Surely a D reg can't be worth a great deal?

Sorry to resurrect a very old thread, Ming, but I was wondering how well these pads had worn. I have been considering replacing mine and have searched on the web to find a supplier. It seems that a number of them can supply a front set for about £25, but I have not come across the ABTEX ones. In fact, some sites don't specify the manufacturer at all. Where did you get yours? Do the 200SX turbo pads also match the rears? Any advice would be most welcome. Hi Jim I suppose it is horses for courses. Even though i have owned many fast/very fast cars I do not drivel ike an idiot. At times I do drive fast but progessive and safely. When the need arises I use the brakes and hard. I have suffered no fade and no problems with them but have not put them under 'track conditions'. I personally am more than happy with them and will be using them again. If you are the sort of person who uses the accellerator as an on/off switch then maybe firmer more 'sporting' pads will be better for you but for day to day useage the pads are fine. I know others will say that these pads are not suitable and i am ready to be shot down in flames here but:- If the pads and discs are of the same material and contact area then the only other variables are weight and speed. Since we are considering similar speed/pads/discs then the only difference is weight. I have not checked up on spec but I would hazzard a guess that the 350z and the 200sx are similar in weight so the pads SHOULD be the same for each car. Even if the weight is different it will only be by the weight of an average passenger. Ming the Simpletons thoughts 200sx weighs 1520 kg's: http://www.internetautoguide.com/car-sp ... index.html Thats the wrong model, the calipers in question are only on the S13 model which weighs in at 1270 kg and is 100bhp less in power. All the arguments under the sun can go on here but the fact is when it comes down to it in a difficult braking situation these pads will simply not perform safely, I don't really have any issues on what people want to buy and who from but when it comes to performance and also reccomending to other members I do feel obliged to question anything that compromises the safety of the individual. Just because they have stopped the car up to now does not mean they are effecient. Put two cars side by side and do a controlled and properly measured brake test with these pads and a good grade pad and the difference will be astonishing. We and many others involved in motorsport spend considerable time and money evaluating braking systems for good reason. Sorry mate i was only trying to provide the info that ming said he didn't know. I have no knowledge at all of 200sx's and next to none on brake pads. Sorry if you thought i was contradicting what you said
