  1. Each to their own, but personally I couldn't have an n/a Zed, I just don't think they are fast enough in standard form. I was looking at getting one for a few years, but every time I drove one I was just disappointed with its lack of grunt. But once I drove the FI zed it was a different kettle of fish and I had to have it. Your almost certainly right that your car didn't need 420whp to make it better and you said yourself that you got paranoid about noises and potential problems probably due to knowing that you were pushing the safe limit on stock internals. Is this not what sucked the fun out of driving it? Mine is only running 400bhp (fly) and is sssooooo much fun to drive. I feel being built and tuned at Abbey and not being pushed to the limit gives it the best chance of surviving and stops me worrying too much. I'm sure one day in the near future I might start chasing a few more HP as it's very hard not to but I do believe 400 is about right for these cars for drive-ability vs performance.
  2. Yes its fine. I have the premium boot mat, a luggage net and the vertical boot separator all work together
  3. Repeated Christmas day, BBC2 18:55--20:00. If my f*%ing machine recorded when it was suposed to I wouldn't know that....... Thank you.

  7. I feel for ya. You know what really grits my sh*t? When they drive at a full 60 MPH on single carriageway firing the grit at the on coming traffic and all over my Zed with a closing speed of 120MPH!!!!! Yours looks bad, but if you wash it off carefully I'm sure there will be no damage.
  8. Oops, viewtopic.php?f=34&t=43312&hilit=mcdonalds I did look in the spotted section before posting. Ignore me and delete thread.
  9. As above just seen a new Maccy Dee's Ad with a 350 in the drive through. Anyone here??
  10. Totally up to you. If you don't have any kind of warranty still on going, I'd take it to someone like Abbey to do. I'd also get a Uprev done while I'm there.
  11. I'm interested to know this too. Had the first MOT of my ownership yesterday and the tester asked what it was, as to whether to put it on the brake rollers or not. We decided it was safer not too. I think that pleased him as he then had to blast it up the road
  12. Well that would make them Superleggera 3 then wouldn't it They're not. They are superleggera 3's. Normal superleggeras don't come with that much dish Well that would make them Superleggera 3 then wouldn't it quod erat demonstrandum Que? I can also confirm they are Oz Superleggera III. (Thank God it was the previous owner that parted with the 4K for them)
  13. Regarding which service is due, your car is now 7 years old. Look back through your service history and see if a P3 has ever been carried out. If not, I'd say its due one. The schedule states xxxx miles or xxxx years which ever is sooner. See here; viewtopic.php?f=64&t=32277
  14. Abbey motor sport in Surrey come highly recommended on here. And yes, they will do a better job than your average Nissan main dealer. http://www.abbeymotorsport.co.uk/site_flash/index.php
  15. and Welcome. I know what you mean about the beet lorries and the Norfolk roads, would have to clean it daily to actually keep it clean. Nice road to though.
