I have had it since february. it's a 2005 non-GT with rays. Pretty much standard apart from a JWT pop-charger which went on allmost immediately as the standard noise was not really to my liking.

The new centre part of the badge arrived today and will be fitted tomorrow.

I was going to order a invidia gemini TD exhaust on friday but i've just had to fork out for the infamous rear axle clicking CV repair kit so the exhaust may be delayed depending on whether i can flog an old set f wheels this weekend, or if i decide that a new exhaust is worth a month of having no money :bounce:


I've heard nothing but good things about this system nice tone to it and doesn't sound boomy at low revs. think i might have to go for some HFCs to get the exact note im after though but they'll have to wait for another payday.

Welcome to the forum Chris. The 'real' car looks lovely. You are obviously very pleased with it. Where abouts are you from?

Hi. i had a look at the location of the hotel on google maps. doesn't look to good for me i'm afraid. partly because i live in south cumbria, and also partly because i may be working on a hydro electric job here at that time of year. i can't wait :bounce:

Hello Chris, and welcome. :band: :drunk:

That is a nice looking Zed. I will always be a huge fan of the mark 1 Nismo kit. :bounce:

Hopefully you'll get the chance to make it to a meet or two soon. :band:

Hi Mate.

yeah I'ts probably my Fav kit for the Zed. i'd love to get the front bumper/splitter but with the roads round here i think i'd end up ripping it off :lol:

Got my new badge on this morning. looks a lot better.

Would be good to come along to a meet. are there many members round my neck of the woods? i do see the odd Zed every now and then.

I think that's very wise. The spoiler is the very best bit, and the fear of leaving another bit behind one day is a good reason for not going for any of the lower bits of the kit in my opinion.

There are one or two other members in the North West, but I see a few Zeds that alas are not club members. We did get as far as Crewe for our "National" last year, and I'd love to visit Cumbria again. If we all keep our options open - as we always do :lol: - then sooner or later there'll be a handy meet, I'm sure. :blink:
