MrLizard

ah ok, thanks for the replies, ill look up this oil place was worrying me with the rpm idle all over the place...

thats an awesome job, though i would never want to go anywhere near one! fairplay buddy, hope you get the zed you want soon!

Hi Guys, Just a quick question, What should my car be idling at, and more specifically just after i turn the engine over, sometimes it sits at about 12-1300 and sometime 900 rpm... Anything to worry about? Also, any recomendations on oil? Thanks MrL

an nice ride always liked the r33, looks

was good fun, the top fuel dragster didnt run but the jet car did, the rain didnt stop anything which was nice as last year no one ran for about 3 hours cause of drizzle. saw 2 zeds, 53 plate azure blue and a white race spec drift car, though only staionary not running , looked tho. funniest moment of the day, watching the commentator wrestle with a wasp in the box he sits in which is about 2 ft wide, slamming a magazine repeatedly into the flexiglass lol

thanks for the responses, including zedrushes sympathetic nod I take a lot of care of the paintwork on all the cars ive had and would be pi**ed off if the cover scratched it, so that will probably be a no. Ill make sure that when we move to our next house that it has a garage big anough for many cars just happy to be on the property ladder, i have rented since i was 17, £500 average a month for 8 years, thats 48k down the drain, at least now im not wasting it Also, i might get a bar n a pool table in the garage n get the misses to use the guest parking

The house was completed just before i brough it, as wanted to see finished article, there are 40 or so apartments on the culdesac/estate, but this is the only one like it, i.e. no one above/below/ attached only on one side sort of... i complained but they say nothing could of been done... also maybe difficult getting the permission to do any work. ill see how it goes with security light and crow bar, and threat of a large can of whoop ass on any numpty silly enough to try it...

walsgrave in sunny coventry! not tooooo bad an area... i never for a second thought that i wouldnt be able to get into the garage short term solution will be security light and a crow bar, what do you guys think of the car cover?? good idea (for security) or not?

ill be there...

Its a new build, i queried it with the people and they said the standard guide lines are 'x' which and i quote 'wont fit most cars'. the garage inside is huge, just the front is supporting the house i guess... no idea... hmmm brick cutter sounds like a plan http://images.propertyfinder.com/imageServer?type=photo&portal=pf&size=lrg&ref=209398_gelli_dawel_apt_over_garage_1&number=0 The above isnt it but thats the same layout. our garage is the one on its own.

it is an apartment above three garages, the garage door has two fairly thin peices of wood/plastic running either side, might be able to modify it, i only know one DIY guy and he is the sort of person that thinks anything is possible even if it meant the house collapsing to get the car in (ive not told him this issue yet) If it had no garage door at all, no runners, and the auto mirrors folded in then i might get in, (tho having mirrors would be useful.... ill try post some pics tomorrow.

Just brought myself my first new house, move in on the 14th march, cant wait, but, the sodding garage isnt big enough for the zed, the wheel arches are too wide (well the garage is too small).. really annoying because once in the garage you could open the doors almost fully, just the entrance thats too thin... ARGH!!! So the plan is to garage the misses aygo (which to be fair is currently the easiest car on the market to steal) and leave mine on the drive. Do i get a car cover or not, the misses reckons it will draw attention, i think its a good idea... alternatively dismantel the garage (im a geek so know nothing of this DIY)

daily driver for me, 32 mile round trip and some good roads occasionally take the misses Toyota Aygo which makes me re-appreciatte the zed all over again.

Welcome from another newb (tho slightly further south)

How would the stand thing work, whenever ive been to donny getting into the site would require turning up at 3 in the morning just cars parked all over the place, tho i would be interested in a stand an possibly staying over... (if i can convince the misses a tent is a comfortable place to be) I'd also be interested if tracktime if was included in the £65 price tag, coventry isnt too far to come from

Indian sounds good (hope the aircon doesnt pack up the next day on the drive!)

for 60k prolly the gtr but for another 20k if we are up to v-spec model then http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/www/cars/PORSCHE+911+GT3/Ne-2-4-5-6-7-8-27-44-49-53-61-64-67-103-133-146,N-4294961728-4294967213/advert.action?R=200807303854169&distance=41&postcode=cv57pp&channel=CARS&make=PORSCHE&model=911+GT3&min_pr=&max_pr=&max_mileage= or alike, still, im dreaming at the moment in a few years maybe, right now im skint, decided to buy a house the same weekend i got the zed

id find it difficult not to buy a porsche for that money... would love to take it out for a spin myself though, gtr looks awesome...

I thought there were two versions of this as well (2 prices?)? v-spec? maybe im talking rubbish just thought id read it somewhere, http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/autoexpressnews/216951/ultimate_nissan_gtr.html apparently i did read it somewhere. who would want the 55k version when theres a v-spec on the horizon?

Lichfield Type-25, i was looking at a second hand one of those before deciding id need a shotgun and bigger balls to sleep at night... http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&VideoID=5144754

i was in that traffic jam, but not in that zed, there are 2 other 07 grey zeds in the carpark where i work, but the black 56 looks better
