It's the start of August and it's been possibly the wettest day i can remember for a long long time. driving out there was ridiculously hard tonight. lost the car once, but luckily only on a slow corner in a deserted housing estate. lost control of the car on a right turn and went into the curb. luckily was going slowly and only damage i could see if big curbing on my wheels. was going to get them refurbed soon anyway so not too bad i guess. but got me really worried as it couldve been any number of roundabouts that i had to go round later. loads of surface water on the motorway which was impossible to see in the dark and the car swayed alot. very scary. definitely the most scary experience i've had in the zed so far!!!!

welcome mate! nice to see more herts owners. if you dont mind a litle drive, I'd recommend the guys at Japex, they are in Kings Langley. top guys and know the zed really well. give them a shout for sure.

well done buddy!

looks quite interesting! but i think it's one those that i'll have to see on the car before i want to give an opinion!

yes definitely give them a shout! well worth it!

sold!

i feel like a right mug now, having sold one on here for 20 quid a while back. everyone was saying then that it was too much! but oh well. these things happen!

PM'd

you can get it direct from richbrook but i just found one from ebay!

yeh the seats should finish off my interior. really happy with the handbrake mod today. Ross at Japex did a great job. I would recommend them to anyone who need anything done.

they are on order, apparently should get them in middle of august, so still a little while away yet! can't wait. What did you go for? thought about keeping you guys in suspense, but can't keep a secret couldnt quite stretch to brides and cobras were a hassle to find rails. so went for the these - Recaro Speeds: Can't wait till they arrive!

haha yes the zed needs a proper clean. will get onto it soon!

Having been inspired by andyzed's handbrake mod: viewtopic.php?f=53&t=25166&hilit=handbrake+lever+mod Went for a black aluminium Richbrook lever to match my black nismo gearknob and also red gaitor. Really pleased with it and thanks again must go to Ross at JAPEX for doing this for me. Once again he's shown exactly how well he knows his way around the zed. Having been in charge of the zed at nissan since it first came out and it really shows! Great guy to deal with and will offer little bit of help that you need and does everything with great care and precision. Top job!

alternatively, i have a gt bose sub which isnt used anymore because i've got a system installed under the rear strut. can i take out the sub and get this second glove box?

ah sorry i was being ridiculously silly. i completely forgot its not the unit's problem that i'm having but with the iphone! wont remember the connection and no phonebook transfer which completely ruins the whole bluetooth thing for me.

how are you finding the bluetooth mate? i've got the same setup and connecting up the phone is a nightmare!

absolute disgrace!

fair enough, just worried that i had to declare it myself or something.

sorry if this is a stupid question. but have just bought some stuff from Adam@Z1auto. Expected some sort of tax for importing the goods. But they were delivered today without any indication that i have to pay. will there be something sent to me later from HMRC?

oh my word that sounds like it's going to LOUD!!!

Here are a couple of photos as it came off the zed! Need to get rid of this as have no room for them. let me know guys. thanks

I got my gaiters from here, they are specifically made for the Zed not universal http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NISSAN-350Z-GEAR- ... 1|294%3A30 really nice quality leather and will make them any colour you want thanks mate, was just looking at that on ebay as well. looks good. did you have to pay much on taxes when it was shipped over? They are based in the UK only £2.99 for postage oh yes sorry i was looking at a different one.
