My new Zed

[dobby]

Hi all,

 

I picked a completely virgin Zed to play with today and tomorrow I am getting a new exhaust made up for it. haha I have had a few Nissans and I still have the Zed's predecessor. I had taken them both for a mini photoshoot today so here are the results.

I have some HDR's to finish off and will post them up when I can.

 

Cheers

is that a pulsar?

 

looks v nice; lot of effort gone into that.

 

hope you enjoy the new zed

[buster]

got to love nissans ....i ve had several 200sx and a skyline but i ve got to say the zed is my fav and i am sure will be yours too.

love the plate on the zed.

[dobby]

Yep that is a Pulsar running 450bhp. Savage too . I cant stop buying bits for cars haha and they end up going extreme... I do like my nissan's and there is quite a few to chose from. Not many people realise that .

I did a few HDR's but uploading is a nightmare so I only got one for now. I love how rich the pictures become. I need to print a few of these .

I've seen this zed before (or at least the reg), I'm sure it was the car I spotted the day after I picked mine up!

Thanks guys.

 

* djrm I will be coming to you for some prints once I decide on the right picture.

 

* Thats no screamer pipe. Its 3 inch from the turbo. Only three feet long .

 

* I wish it was summer. I paid £10 to have them both washed before the photos were taken as it is soo cold.

Well its not been a week yet and I have been busy haha..

I got an exhaust made the day after I got the car and got a pop charger off a fellow member . Ontop of that I got a Nurrish Sat Nav Which looks the dogs b........ I cleaned the interior and to my surprise its like new except for the drivers floor mat I must say I made the right choice in car. I got one of those laser etched gear knobs coming and some wheel spacers too. Cant wait to fit them. I made it although quite late to the breakfast meet in Bath today and I just like to thank everyone for being so friendly. I loved the other zeds and it gives me some ideas haha.

Some pics;

I will get some pics of the sat nav during the break on x factor haha

[dobby]

Need to do it again tomorrow They arn't very good

[magic84]

nice to meet you today mate, looks like your cars gunna be one to watch. the new addition looks sweet

[dobby]

My Freeview box turned up today and I couldnt wait to try it out. I got it off ebay and it fits under the white aircon controller box in the dash. With it all wired up it works a treat. Here's some pics.

I also got the laser engraved gearknob off member kta. I really like it

Hard to photograph though

[dobby]

The members who seen the car at the breakfast meet would have seen the terrible state the wiper arms were in. I had them off last night and repainted them satin black. They look like new now and go well with the bosch aerotwin wipers.

As of now the car sits on axle stands whilst the wheels are getting refurbed. I like my wheels looking new and they were shocking. kurbed all the way around and paint bubbling on the spokes. Should get them back in two hours time. In the mean time I painted the brake disc bells as they looked rusty. Should go nicely with the wheels. I also got a full set of Rays wheelnuts so hopefully it will look mint.

 

Cheers

Loving the enthusiasm

Hi mate,

 

could you give me a bit more info on the Freeview box you got? An eBay link and how easy it was to fit etc, I have a pioneer f900bt with an extra aux input, more interested in digital radio that tv but would be nice to have both

 

Cheers

Ok I bought this one off ebay because it is nice, small and simple. It is also better to connect to the car as from over the years getting a home box to work in the car gets complicated lol.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Car-Freeview-Digi ... 1116692692

I got it the following day.

I connected the power to the cigarette lighter as it was just easier for me and I run the aerial around the passenger footwell. The box itself is sitting under the aircon controller box infront of the gearknob. Its working brilliant however I dont want to have the aerial on the roof. The issue is the aerial needs to be stuck on metal for it to work so I will have a go at a few ideas I have before I buy a windscreen aerial.

TBH It is more of a gadget/gimmick as I wont be watching tv on the move anyway. I am however going to the airport on Thursday to pick someone up so it will be usefull while I wait. If the radio works good then that will be usefull as Kiss 101 drops out of reception in many areas my way.

Cheers mate

 

Looks ideal, same as you I'm not that interested in TV but then with the QE2 bridge this time of year it might be handy

 

More interested in Digital Radio so would be ideal for that, again like you I don't want an obvious aerial although there are some quite decent window mounted ones that wouldnt show too much if mounted at the top of a Zed rear window...

 

I bought a little mobile digital radio but the reception is pretty poor unfortunately... so I think I will give this a go, whats the remote control like?

 

Thanks again

Yo that freeview looks like it works a treat! well done matey

[JetSet]

Looks really good. How does it wire into the Nurrish Nav?

 

Thanks,

 

Pete

[dobby]

The remote looks cheap but it works ok. There are three wires coming off the sat nav. yellow red and white like any tv has. When you turn on the freeview it overrides the sat nav.

Here are some pics of the new wheels they look soo clean now I love it.

 

cheers
