  1. Ready to order Phil - have sent you email ps - found a mechanic to fit for £20/hour, he reckons 3-4 hours
  2. wow - not as expensive as I thought - do you have in stock Phil?
  3. I think my clutch is finally on its way out - over the weekend I put my foot down in 4th (thinking I was in 2nd) and the revs shot up with no increase in speed - then came the smell - a horrible burning smell. Suffice to say, clutch is slipping badly. Unfortunately, I'm broke at the moment and cant afford a new one (£1000+ fitted) so I am looking for a used or reconditioned one. Anyone got any ideas where I can get one? p.s. its a JDM 2002 model
  4. Phew!!!! - i always worked on the assumption that km/ltr x 2.3 gave you miles per gallon - but have just realised that thats for US gallons! So Im getting better economy than i thought - but I'm still only averaging 17 mpg
  5. Think I'm gonna get one! - These guys stock them: http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pages/ ... category=1

  8. I have a Dell PDA and bought my mount here... http://www.pdamods.com
  9. Mine says £185 I heard something about the Budget that in the year 2010 high emission cars could be charged up to £950 a year for road tax!! Edit: - just read other post on tax
  10. I have a similar dent how much did they charge? ^^ ditto ^^
  11. mines an 02 GM - 6th Zed ever made! The blue one I saw I actually gave the owner a flyer to join the site
  12. I've only seen 2 other zeds in Maidstone, ones sunset (Mangravet area) the other blue (at David Lloyd leisure centre) - one of those you?
  13. Big discount for a fellow Maidstone-ite? ??
  14. Also a Sunset with carbon bonnet at the end of CSI ;-)

    MY08

    Expect a massive company car tax bill! - I bought mine and took a car allowance instead!
  17. Nope - it was on recirc and there was no window open either - this wasnt a 'one off' - it now is the 'norm' rather than an exception
  18. I understand the concept of climate control - but there is a definate change when the car is stationary (to cold air) and when it is in motion (hot air)
  19. Hi guys - I have had my JDM (02 plate) for about 6 months now, and hadnt noticed a potential issue until the onset of the cold weather. Whilst having a swarm of Kosovans very efficiently detail the exterior of my car, I left the engine running and noticed that although the climate control was set to auto and approx 25degrees, cold air started coming out the floor vents. As soon as I drove off it turned warm then hot. Then after approx 3 miles I got stuck in traffic (standstill) and the air went cold again ! Surely the heater isnt directly linked to the drive chain so that the car has to be in motion to get warm air???? - this must be a fault - Any ideas? Dave
  20. Welcome! I was worried about my clutch being high to, but arrantly its quite common on Zeds so unless its actually slipping now I would hold off on a new one
  21. I resent that! - I payed 11k for my 02 model (JDM) and there is nothing wrong with it at all! As far as insurance goes, yes I pay £1000/year but thats cos I have no no-claims; with full no claims bonus you should get a lot cheaper
  22. I have had my zed for 6 months now - its an 02 import with approx 36k on clock. When a friend drove it the other day he commented on how high the clutch bite is; I hadnt really thought anything of it before but he is right - the bite is on the last 5% of the pedal. Is this common with zed's or an early sign that my clutch is on its way out? Is the clutch self adjusting or can it be done manually?
  23. Are you sure it's cars you're referring to here, Stevie? LMFAO
  24. I got JDM 17" - 225 front and 235 back so yes i want some new wheels!!
