Vik54 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Neil you're getting over-excited again you'll need your nappy changed! Amy - there's a huge selection of pads for some solid advice and good prices - though if you're going to 19" wheels surely you'll be wanting some Brembos to fill them?

What sort of driving are you going to be doing? If your gonna give it a bit of a beasting the ebc yellowstuffs, which jay has on his jdm brakes, are very decent price. Jay really likes the yellowstuff pads on the jdm calliper and he drives pretty fast at times I love the ebc yellowstuff and bluestuff on my brembo calipers although bluestuff wore out faster than the yellowstuff (but braking was unbelievably sharp) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Only the screen from the Jap Sat Nav can be salvaged. The rest is junk. In all honesty, you;d be best getting yourself a new HU that does everything, and then turning the Sat Nav cubby back into just a storage cubby.

AmyZed Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 yeah i agree, id be best off with another HU ... hmm that will have to wait ... ill just leave it bust for now, apparantly the reverse cam should work though, so may ask someone to fix my flap and see if that at least works!!!

Voodoo Vix Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Lovely car Amy, hope you have better luck with this one. I have a K1 on mine and although it sounds nice with baffles in I prefer the looks of them out, it is loud but I don't find it bad on long motorway journeys and haven't had to turn the radio up, may help that I only drive once a week, if I drove all the time I could see it getting tedious, I also think with decats it would be unbearable lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmyZed Posted August 15, 2011 Author Share Posted August 15, 2011 Well.... things dont run smooth with me and 350's!!!! aaarrrrggghhh!!!! OK, im sure ill forget alot of detail in this; maybe Kite, or D4NXY (hope thats right user name for danny with the lovely black modded zed) or BulletMagnet can add to this!! they all came round mine to help me fit the 19" alloys, k1 exhaust and look at my 'cubbyhole' The wheels went on.... the rear tyres have little air and as they have aluminum valve caps theyve corroded / got stuck on and therefore tyres (rears ) have little air right now... (this may help explain a big prob ive had today.............) the exhaust; the poor chaps were at it from 1pm till 10pm- no joke!!!! the standard exhaust the bolts etc were so rusted they just couldnt get it off.... easy on a ramp as room to swing at them etc.. but we only had they car jacked up. So i ended up driving it last night with no exhaust and the k1 in passenger seat!!! That however was all fitted at a garage today, and looks great- sounds good too. i like it . The cubby hole.... They had it all out and in pieces.... and my motorised screen had stuck down- we got it back up and the reversing camera worked...woohoo!! the sat nav does not though. whilst all this was apart the weirdest thing happened!! the car made an actual door bell noise!!!! DING DONG!!!!! twice!!! it was really funny... but very strange!!!! we all joked the cubby hole would close when all put back together and ignition switched off......... guess what- it did!!!!!! so the motorised flap seems to shut it but not put it up!?!?! it was really gutting as theyd spent a while taking it all apart just for it to shut back down!!!!!!! BulletMagnet (Mark) was really kind and took it all back apart and has now disconnected the cubby hole motorised screen- so now its stuck open so i can use the reversing cam.... but its all very strange and the sat nav is just lit black and beeps now and then and jap writing comes up ... ill need to sort this eventually. We were listening to 'Elton John' haha whilst working on the zed and when we went to start the car her batt had gone flat.... typical!!!! this was at about 10pm after a huge struggle all day with exhaust!!!!! We swapped kites batt with mine- then quickly threw mine back in and charged it- we went for a photoshoot with the 5 zeds which Danny took the pics so hopefully we can post these up ..... There was 5 zeds as also Terry helped... i dont know his screen name on here !! he said he will come back on though today... tried to open the car- didnt work..... i assumed batt had died, started to bang my head on walls by now!!!!! but somehow after 5 mins it actually opened and started! very strange !?!??! i assume poss my key fob batt is dying??? i had the exhaust fitted, they didnt have alot to do as the guys had done most work, that went well !!BUT ... On route from fitting exhaust to work the SLIP warning light kept coming up on dash, i seemed to be losing power , so i drove to work really slow i dont really know why.... i am praying its because the rear two tyres have not enough air... and one rear is very low on tread. I tried to replace that today but they didnt have the tyre i wanted in, i also asked them to pump then up- replace those valves as they were stuck- they advised untill i have the tyre not to said they didnt want to disturb the tyre replacing the valves?!?!!? and told me to get my garage this eve to do that...... this eve its going to another garage who are respraying front bumper and meshing it ..... so i just pray the car opens, drives and doesnt flash SLIP up too much ...... and i can get that garage to source the tyre and pump em all up right..... all in all... very stressful if anyone could help with this SLIP warning light that would help, it is because she now has 19's on her? or perhaps the fact one rear is low on tread and low on air??? i hope its the above and not a real fault / issue ........ thank you to the 4 lovely zed owners who spent allllll day helping me and under my car getting rust in their eyes yesterday. i cant thank you enough! help!!!!!!

Lexx Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Are the 19's a staggered offset? Do you have correct size tyres on to keep the rolling radius the same as when 18"'s fitted? If you have put same width wheels on front and rear, it can confuse the hell out of the TCS. Sorry to hear you are having issues with Zed #2.

Chris`I Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Slip light will 99.9% be down to wrong tyre sizes as Lexx says. Pop up the tyre sizes on here and we will confirm Dying batteries can also cause the problems you say you have, the Zed is very weird when the battery is on the way out. Get a new one and job will likely be a good un. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andlid Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 welcome back man you seem to have a bunch of issues... not to worry mine have been worse Yours are minor and sounds easliy fixable. The slip is more then likely the try size as the gents say. Wouldnt recommend driving the car with low air in them though, could cause damage.
