  1. I believe if you have a look in the "for sale" section, someone is selling a set for £600.
  2. I have the complete traction control off at the moment. I did not indend too but there is some sort of problem in the system I am guessing and the complete traction control system is off, with the slip and traction control lights on. I have been driving it for the past couple month and its fine. I guess you get used to it, plus it makes you smooth on the power and overall a better driver!
  3. Also, I am located in Milton keynes, and anyone is welcome to view the Bumper if needed!
  4. Hi guys, I have a Nismo v1 Bumper I am selling. I have tried it out on my 350z and it is a brilliant fit. I just dont have the time to spray this bumper and need the money and space as were moving soon. The Bumper is a brilliant replica of the nismo v1. It fits very good and is in good condition. The bumper is ready to be painted. It has a metal mesh fitted on and looks fantastic. I also have a Nissan chrome badge which can be bought with it as well. I am looking for offers for around £200. PM me if interested! ONO Here are some pics! This bumper does not sit any lower than the original so touching or scrapping bumps is not an issue.
  5. I find rtb interesting and very knowledgeable I'll get some pics up tomorrow!
  6. I have a Nismo V1 Front Bumper Im selling if anyone is interesting. It is a replica, but I have fitted it and it fits very fell, and is in Brand New condition. Just needs some Paint!
  7. I have a Nismo One Im selling at the moment. V1. And sadly, yes, it is a replica! But a very good, well fit replica! Just needs to be painted!
  8. Maybe, but seeing as it is the rear, I wouldnt say a lot of pressure will be on it. Just take it easy and wait for a replacement tyre. If i was you, I would complain to whereever you got the tyyre from and see if they can compensate you.
  9. I very much doubt it. Tyres take a lot of pressure bashing around before they start to deform themselves. Going through a pot hole at 50mph is a much more impact on the tyre than going up a curb. wonder if it's due to the left rear shock has been knackered for a while and done double jumps sometimes... could be the shock is putting too much pressure on the tyre.
  10. I did mine recently in Milton Keynes, Motor auto care I think they were called. I think there is one in London as well. Good job they did and worked out £30 for the alignment. They will check it for free!

  12. Have you checked Costco. They seem to have quite a few of foreign beer and have quite a range.
  13. This happened with one of my other cars lately. I am a careful driver and guarantee that I did not curb then saw the bulge on the front left. The only thing I could think of was if it was the amount of hard cornering I do (milton Keynes, roundabout, all the stress goes on that left front tyre) I ended up switching it with the one of the rear ones, and it lasted another year when I then needed to replace it for MOT. I think it could just be a manufacturers error. If the tyre was reasonably new you should complain and let them replace it for you. Even with bad curbing tyres dont do that.
  14. I actually have one that I might sell. v1 replica! Good fit.
  15. Are these legal, as in will they pass the MOT ect and I guess you wont be needing the lamda sensors?

    Life after Zed

    I would recommend a Golf GT TDI. They are great cars, value for money. Diesel, 6 speed manual, 60+ mpg and they are reasonably quick. Plus if you want some more power the engines are easily tunable to 200 + bhp!
  17. Personaly, I think the original zed lights looked very
  18. Drive it hard around Milton keynes (roundabouts every half mile and no traffic ) and get about 15-18 mpg, On long motorway journeys averaging 80/90 will get you around the 28-30 mpg. Its not Bad to be honest!
  19. To add to this thread: I fitted the Pagid cheapies and bedded in over 200 miles or so. Bite wasn't quite as good as the original brembo pads but I figured it would get better and I was happy enough. Then I did a track day and the front pads were smoking after a few not particularly quick or aggressive laps. The brakes are mushy mush now, the pads are cooked. I took them out and deglazed them and they are still rubbish. Buy cheap, buy twice etc etc. How have the mintex cheapies stood up? I have used mintex pads for all my other cars and they are very good. Long lasting and hardly any brake dust. I will be using them on my zed next time I change the pads. And works out under £70 for a complete set. well worth it I think!
  20. I have a V1 Nismo one, PM me if interested!
  21. At the moment, Im driving the zed with no traction control at all. The traction control light is on and the slip light so no help at all. I think its fine, but when you do give it a boot, all you can smell is rubber You get used to it though and it will make you a better driver I believe!
  22. Im on the admiral policy, works out £350 for the zed!
  23. yeh, not a fan of stretched tyres!
  24. They are pretty low, but there are no brakes low light....so I cant see how this would be affected?
