Seems like a bargain. GLWTS. Cheers mate, really dont want to sell but I only use the car at weekends and dont want it sat on the road being abused all week so has to go!

Cheers guys just found some 453's for £109.19 each job done!

Think I may just go with the 453's they seem a safe bet for a budget tyre and if the new owner wants to match the fronts they are still available to do so!

Selling the car so don't really mind how they are but thought I might just consider the new owner! I have falken 912's on the front and have always been fine. (then again I have only done 6k in 4 years! lol)

Hi all, Due to sell the zed soon and just my luck the Original Rear Bridgestone potenzas decide to perish and go flat (on the day I was due to take my Girlfriend away for her bday!!) The original fronts were changes when I bought the car 4 years ago and have only covered 6k so are fine (Falken 912) They dont seem to make those now but want to match the best possible tyres for as cheap as possible. I have found the 914's cheaper than the 453's (not by much but every little counts) but cant find any reviews on here from people that have them? So which tyres for the new owner? Cheers Rog

That's great Thanks Ewen

Hi, Does anyone know what exhaust gaskets should go in each section of the OEM exhaust? I am replacing the center section tomorrow and it has been sent with a 2 bolt 63mm metalic flat gasket and metal sealing ring. It looks like the flat gasket goes between the center flange and y pipe and sealing ring goes from center to back box. The reason I am questioning this is that when I had the back box fitted they used a flat gasket and not the sealing ring and or both can't remember but can see flat gasket. Just want to make sure as have the car booked into garage tomorrow afternoon and if I'm short of a flat gasket im stuck. Many thanks Roger

I have had a knocking noise coming from the zed for a while, checked drop links etc wasnt that so booked into nissan dealer for a diognosis and after they checked the brakes and suspension they found a loose wheel nut to be the cause! They blamed my spaces not having enough thread but I'm pretty sure they are just as long! I'll be torquing mine up on a regular basis from now on! Hope you get the zed back on the road soon

Cheers alex,Going to taking it to a garage on sat to see if I can get a positive id then I'll be in touch

This may be a stupid question but if you never reset the trip doesnt it just stay the same?

I have recently had a bad clicking/knocking noise coming form the passenger side of the zed. I thought it was the drop links but lubed them up and made no difference (going to disconnect them at the weekend just to make sure) It appears to make more knocking under braking so have know been advised it could be the banana bar! If it is this how safe is it to drive the car until this is identified and sorted? I dont use the car as a daily runner but do need to take it round a few garages for some quotes. Cheers Rog

Cheers Paul thats a big help! Didnt realise that was the jacking point, I have been using the point on the side of the car with the two notches for the jack that comes with the car! I am definately going to try this next weekend and see if it has an effect on the knocking noise. If not well at least its something ticked off the potential problem list! Good guide Ricey

Evening all, I think my droplinks need changing and have a couple of questions. 1, How can you tell that they actually need changing? (do they wear,can you rattle them by hand etc) 2, Whats the difference between the standard and uprated? 3, Are the uprated ones worth it? Cheers Rog p.s I have had a quick scan but is there a how to with pics on this subject?

Is the tank going then Paul?

I have a picture of my zed as my screen saver on the phone. I just show them that and usually get "oh that one" from the guys and "oh thats nice and shiney" from the girls!
