Don't forget some pics of the engine bay please Wink.

Wish my Lotto numbers would hurry up & come up, ....would love to be in the situation to be able to buy that 458.

^^ Sure he's going to love that. Happy Birthday bud.

Are you flippiin' kidding tpivette? ...you bought the "Art" Zed? Nice. Looks great apart from the rear wing but as you said you've removed it I bet it looks fantastic now. Let us all see what you've done to it in due course & enjoy it.

Welcome aboard. Post some pictures up if you can ("Photobuckets" the easiest way).

Have you checked the condition of the rear exhaust back box? What about the heat shield above the exhaust back box? Lot's of things that could cause a "rattly" sound tbh. Also it might actually be happening in higher gears too but with the increased road noise/tyre noise/wind noise etc it may not be as easy to hear, ...just a thought.

Any links to the advert Brad? Maybe add "attention Niko" in the thread title to draw his attention as well.

Great looking Zed BeefyZ. If someones willing to pay what you're asking and you're happy with that price too then it's all good imo. If I was you though (although it is a shame) I'd strip some of the parts off your Zed and sell those individually ~ this will help in two ways; Firstly making your Zed slightly less modded & giving it more of a standard/unmolested look will help make it more appealing (imo) to more people. Secondly you can sell those parts on here for free or failing that eBay or similar thus giving you a cash boost on top of whatever you actually sell the car for. Somethings however like the dials should obviously just be left as is but you could easily remove for example the "350Z" polished/chromed brace made by Mark and sell that to get extra cash. Although it looks great it adds no real value to the average car buyers idea of what the car is worth. If you've still the standard parts for the car like the air box etc then it's not to hard to swap them around & go back to standard. Just some food for thought & GLWTS.

Good man.

You could try using some "Kurust" in the short term to attempt to stop the rust spreading too far (as pictured below) but ultimately the only way to get rid of rust is to have the affected panels/areas taken back to bare metal & repainted or in a worst case scenario the rust would need to be cut out or the entire panel replaced.

Welcome aboard Paul.

Good luck Ewen and congratulations.

Welcome aboard. Sorry to read of your mishap but luckily there are still plenty of things you can do one handed (surf this forum for one).

Glad it's sorted Jon. Great news.

Brilliant.

That sucks mate. Just hope this doesn't cause you any problems in the future (like you say cloned car or speeding tickets etc).

For wheels then refurbed and colour change, mpss, 20mm spacers and correct wheel nuts. Just shy of 2k Tbf though it's actually not that bad, ...when I had my Zed I bought 19" Rota Grids with nuts, spigots & brand new Falcon tyres and that lot was around £1600 so you did good I'd say to get that lot for just shy of £2K.

Did you sort it then Jon? What Veeg suggested above should have been all you needed to do to get it free imo.

Glad you got your user name finally sorted and the pictures Thanos. Zed looks great.

I'm actually surprised they weren't Irish gypsies, ...is that wrong?!.

Hello Ryan, does your Zed have any mods done to it? ...or are you planning anything? The reason I ask as it's really best to get any mods you're planning on doing done before you get an UpRev as otherwise you're just wasting money because any mods done after the UpRev won't have the intended increase in performance/Bhp/torque. Also if you get a few mods done first you will see a better improvement over stock. Eg: Mods like exhaust system/backbox, plenum spacer, performance panel air filter etc. You can of course get an UpRev done without any mods done to the car at all, ...in your case with it being an import then you can get the 112mph top end limiter removed and you still should see an improvement in performance/Bhp/torque.

Welcome aboard, ...obviously like the Zeds but that A3's very nice too. Looks like a lot of hard work went into making that look the way you wanted.

Welcome aboard Chris. Hope you enjoy the Zed and the thieves don't get their scumbag hands on it like they did your RS4.
