Hi and welcome to the club

Hi Steve and welcome to the club mate. Glad that you eventually got your Zed and that all is good. Martin will be crying in his beer by now.

Hi Alex and welcome to the club. Still got a huge soft spot for the Fords myself as I have a 92 Escort Cossie stuck away in the garage, had it from new, no mods except a Graeme Goode stainless steel exhaust, only 29,000 miles.

A Lada would turn heads in Falkirk Seriously mate you have done a grand job there, very well done Regarding your exhaust, if the only issue is that the n/s tip is sitting lower than the o/s then that is an easy fix. Providing that you are happy with the position of the o/s and it is not touching the bumper then all your fitter has to do is bend the hanger bracket that is fitted to the car body on the n/s/r. I find that it is better to remove the bracket and bend it in a vice. Do not try and bend the hanger bracket that is welded to the exhaust. Alex.

Okay lets deal with the steering first. Check tyre condition and pressures, PAS fluid level and PAS belt tension.

So is your steering still heavy and do you still have the engine, traction and esp lights on? Is it a UK car or a JDM import ? If your lights are still on you could try an ECU reset and if they come on again then you should pull the fault codes to see what the issues are. Alex.

PAS belt I guess requires adjustment or replacement. Also check the PAS oil level. Alex.

Select 5th Gear Position the plate against the reverse stop. Tighten plate. Check all gears for proper selection especially reverse.

Mines are all gone so try R35LEE. I do have ones coming off a G35 next week but at this moment of time I still have to check if they are the same as the Zed. I think that they will be, but I want to make sure.

I wasn't going to point that out - thought you were being 'funny' Am afraid must now retire from Knockhill pax/groupie-dom..........am running away to the ring

Sorted.

Noisy clutch bearing, noisy gearbox idler gear, noisy dual mass flywheel are all possibilities. Nissan should have a record of the clutch slave issue. First thing to do is to pop into your local Nissan garage and have a friendly chat. If the noise is as bad as you say then they should have no problem identifying the cause and fixing it under warranty. If your warranty claim is rejected then I have all the parts required. viewtopic.php?f=38&t=27436 Cheers, Alex.

Hi and welcome to the club.

Well done indeed and welcome to the club

Nice one, hope all goes well.

Sorry, but got to disagree here. If Greekman was to have an insurance repair on the damage to his car it would be very close to a total loss. The new parts alone would be well over £6000. As well as the obvious, if that was my car I would be wanting 2 new wheels and tyres and the deployed air bag is not cheap to replace. Also it is not always black and white on the track and serious damage can occur to your car through no fault of your own or other drivers. Fluids for instance getting dropped can cause all sorts of problems usually resulting in very expensive repairs when you hit the tyrewall. Just my 2 cents.

Had another look at this for you and it would appear that a fitting kit is available. Part number 41218 12U26 priced at £31 .46 + vat.

Just had a look at the Nissan parts list and it appears that they do not supply this part on its own as it comes with the brake pad kit. So there is chance that your local Nissan dealer may have a pad kit on the shelf. I am assuming that you are running Brembo callipers.
