Just noticed you are in south Wales, did you ever take your zed round Llandow?

Well, funny you should say that, I put 28 in my spare track tyres earlier as a kind of educated guess to start from so I'm glad you said that! Combe is definitely quick, and like you said quite narrow in places. Good thing is it's less than an hour from my house too!

Yes driven Combe quite a few times, was very daunting at first I must admit, but love it now! I will definitely be taking it easy to start with and learn the car, it's going to quite a different beast compared to my old car. But very much looking forward to it!

Got my first trackday in my zed tomorrow at Castle Combe Did loads in my old BMW so looking forward to seeing how they compare. It's pretty much standard, all I've done since I bought it is a full service, new ds2500's all round, braided hoses and ATE high boiling point fluid, with a spare set of wheels/tyres to take, should keep it going well all day hopefully!

2005 DE engine HTC m8 I used the older version of this one that is bluetooth only, not wifi: http://www.ebay.co.u...BoAAOSwBahVWYg~ Only used it so far to check an EML warning, worked great and connected quickly, will have another play around with it at some point and see what else works

M+S posh dogs are pretty good, especially the chilli and cheese ones!

While we're on the subject of phones, has anyone got any experience of the HTC 10?

PM'd

Hi all, I'm after the steel brake pipe that goes from the caliper to the flexi hose. Drivers side (o/s) To fit my 2005 DE engined zed with Brembos. Phoned my local Nissan dealer today and they are £55+ vat so thought I'd check here first before ordering one! Cheers, Jer

Hi, I was a little worried when I first got mine, but they all seem to be a little rattly/noisy from the transmission from what I've read on here. Have a read through this: http://www.350z-uk.c...le#entry1231370 Helped put my mind at ease!

This was the car I had before my zed. Modified 3.5 straight 6 kicking out 250lb ft torque and weighing around 1100 kilos , was lots of fun Bit too track focused though so I only ever used it for trackdays even though it was fully road legal. The rot had got a hold of it so had a look at other cars, and a zed came out top of the list! ://

I went on compare the market to insure my zed, got loads of quotes under £400, Hastings was the cheapest for me too, just bought it online, job done! No need to phone unless you want to try and knock them down a bit I guess?!

Ah, that makes sense! Thanks

I'll take one too if there's one left please

I've just bought 2 bottles of this too and noticed what it says about not for LSD's as well. This is definitely ok to use in a standard LSD then? Was just going to email the seller and thought I'd check on here first, glad I did now!

Thanks for the pics, looks really good! Yes I'm sure the one I'm looking at doesn't come with the nav as standard, but I'm not really too worried as I usually just use Google maps on my phone if I'm going any where I'm not sure of. I'm not going to be doing loads of long journeys so should be fine

Ah nice, thanks for the reply. That split screen feature sounds great! Yes I've seen one for sale that looks almost identical apart from the DAB, but thought it's worth getting one with it if I'm buying a new head unit.

Hi all, Looking at getting a new head unit for my zed, I've found this one: http://www.ebay.co.u...jgAAOSwxehXPM9g Has anyone had any experience of these? Or recommend something similar? Thanks, Jer

I've only had my zed for a few weeks now, but I've noticed a lot of people staring at it when I'm driving! Definitely seems to grab people's attention

Yes please, I'll take these. I'll send a PM in a sec

Agreed, they are very heavy, but cheap! I just wanted a spare set for now but will definitely be after a set of lighter track wheels soon

Wow loads of replies! I've got a set of the 18" non-Rays wheels on their way, it's a 2nd set of wheels so wont need them to be road legal. Was going to go for 225/40-18, and 245/40-18 for now, would that be ok to keep the T/C happy? I'm not too worried about going bigger diameter or wider tyres yet, my last car was running 205/50-15's RWD with 250lb/ft torque so I'm used to balancing a car on the throttle!

Well, maybe not completely standard, forgot about the wheels and bits that have been colour coded!

Ended up picking it up later than first planned! Completely standard (for now) It's got just over 100,000 miles on it which is a little higher than I'd have liked but it's been very well looked after. Drives like a new car! 350

I've just got the insurance sorted for my new 350, the company I was with wanted £2800 ish to insure me (34 y/o, 12yrs NCB) bearing in mind they were charging me £270 a year for my previous car which was a heavily modified BMW e30 track car which was quicker than my 350! Apparently as they are modified specialists they didn't like the fact my new car is completely standard. Ended up paying £360 a year in the end with someone else which I was pleased with
