Jesus....you couldn't get a Rizla paper between those wheels and that kerb . No wonder you have kerb rash!

No, not to hard . The service I had done picked up the the front pads and front tyres would need changing later this year so I'm looking ahead and will probably change all pads and all tyres in a few months. I'm still trying to decide which pads, probably Ferodo DS2500. They seem to get good reviews.

......tyres? I've realised how crap my OEM Bridgestones are and am looking to replace all four tyres to get some grip. I've done a search and found surprisingly little opinion on tyres. Is there a standout winner when it comes to tyres on a Zed? I'm not particularly loyal to any tyre brand so would consider anything. I've seen a couple of people on here praise their Toyo's, are there any others? Craig.

2006 models dont have the amber strips in the lights aahhhh....it all becomes clear. I removed the same reflectors from my previous Scooby easily enough, although its still nerve wracking wondering if the headlight unit will seal okay afterwards.

Thats good to know! .

Trev-the-rev, I've just noticed....have you removed the orange reflectors from your headlight units? How did you do that? Craig.

Can you post a couple Louis, so I can see my car from above.

I'm just teasing her at the moment . No firm plans for anything just yet.

Thanks for the reply Adam, I've just been looking around your website which is fantastic. Do you have a price for the K+N Typhoon intake kit for the Zed as there isn't a price on your site? Cheers, Craig.

Are there any benefits to fitting the Y pipe?

I've seen on Ebay various types of Decat exhaust pipes. How many does the Zed have in total and how many can you change (if any) before the exhaust emissions are compromised? Could you get away with changing the singles or the downpipe without affecting your MOT chances. These are the ones I've seen on ebay.

Wow!! Thats quite a bit, the weight of a small person.

A 4 litre Zed would be fantatic!!

I wonder what the weight difference is between a GT Zed and a non GT Zed? I would imagine that the BOSE subwoofer is a few kgs, as would the electric motors in the leather seats. My old Zed also had the heavier standard wheels. I reckon it all adds up that my Zed is a fair few kgs lighter than my old one although I wouldn't argue with the psychological element. I'm sure theres a part to play with that also.

+1 Yeah, I would like to do this as well.

Nope...still none the wiser!! Whats it called?

What other 350Z site????

Not for me either. If you like it, then that is all that matters.

I believe I have the answer to your problems...... Clicky Craig.

Chris, I asked this question the other day and got this very useful link. You don't have to remove the bumper. Clicky Craig.

£9...wow..thats cheap! I assume it was a private sale as opposed to an online trader? Craig.

I'm trying to get some clear front bumper reflectors for my 04 Zed but my local dealer reckons that the Nissan dealers no longer stock them at the minute due to stock acquisition problems. Does anybody know if this is true? Has anybody bought some recently? Will these fit with them being American? Clicky Cheers, Craig.

I like that a lot... Smaller has to mean lighter.

Does anybody know / remember what colour Motul 300V Power Racing engine oil is? I'm quite distrustful of mechanics doing an oil change when I put my car in for a service as I don't want them to swipe my expensive oil and put in their generic stuff. I'm hoping its one the more distintive colours I've come accross before like a green or red colour so it can be easily checked by me dipping the sump. Any ideas? Craig.

Hi Colin, As somebody who has owned a GT pack Zed in 2004 and now a non GT Zed (see "Ayesha is mine") I feel I can comment on this matter. I loved the leather seats on my GT pack Zed but many other people noted that the leather was quite hard although it never bothered me. I was going to get a leather retrim on my current Zed but I was very surprised at how good the cloth seats are. They are alot better than I thought they were going to be. If all you want is leather seats then save your money for a retrim. The BOSE stereo system is absolutley rubbish, or mine was anyway. The cruise is useful but not a "must have". How much is the GT pack nowadays compared to a few hundred for a retrim?
