When in the states i got this made at madame tussauds, Just wondering if anyone knows where to get them made in the uk like that for fairly cheap, this one got made in a machine and cost me $10. Could be a cool thing to have for the zed and be part of the club pack.

Mot for the SWB and it passed:dance: Took the showplates of this morning put the legal plates on checked all lights and drove to the MOT centre it was sunny and dry and the drive was soooo good the MOT examiner said it was the cleanest import he had seen so well pleased. Need more sunny dry weather I so miss driving this zed:cool:

Guy's, Turned 40 in November, check out this birthday cake.

Hi guys, i seem to remember seeing an instrument cluster for about £100 and another one for £20. I asked the question why and was told the answer. Trouble is now i've hit 50, my memory is shot to hell, So can some one tell me again. Cheers Rich

despite turning the air con up to 40, there is virtually no heat at all coming out, it makes all the blasting sound just no warm air. any idea?

Quick one - my zed is slipping the clutch in 5th at motorway cruising speeds, but the previous owner had the flywheel and clutch replaced less than 5k ago, so i dont think they're worn out - can the clutch just be adjusted better?

mornin all! yesterday both my electric seats packed up, ive not had a chance to have a look yet, but i was just wondering whats the first places to check? i mean first ill check the fuse (if i can find it) but after that im not sure where to be looking. any ideas? cheers

This has popped up on pistonheads needing a possible engine but what a bargin. I did think of getting it myself and using as my big power motor but i dont think a shorty will be big enough so someone buy it and get it in the club :) http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2365023.htm

I have enough threads going already...but learning about the car so cant be helped. This is another quicky.... I read in another thread that import owners should have a certificate. Well, I don't have one. Do many others have a certificate, and does it really matter. I have the red V5 and my car was imported in 1990 if memory serves. As far as I know I'm legal. :shifty:

finally got round to changing the series 1 air con to series 2 today . i must say im pleased with the results and extra control it gives . the bit i like best is the windscreen aimed air via the economy button as opposed to having to use the air con to keep the windscreen demisted . that alone has gotta be worth an extra 1-2 mpg during the colder months and a few more available bhp. every little bit helps .

Hi, Next step for me will be a re-spray but dont know what colour to go for really undecided, may fancy white with black wheels but not sure. Any sudgestions. Cheers Mark

Hi,just wondering if their are any regular meets, or events which some of you guys attend, im in Milton keynes and would like to meet up at some stage.When i had my TVR there were regular meetings ,each month i would go to Northampton and Baldock to meet fellow enthusiasts.Tvr had a very good club but likewise so has Nissan there used to be at least 20 cars attend each meet.It would be great to see some of the lovely cars belonging to you lot.

As the big day gets ever nearer (had our first false alarm on new years eve!) im thinking more about life with baby, and crikey its scary lol! As far as the seats go though, i was wondering about converting the back seats, which are pretty useless for passengers really, as both the mrs and i are fairly tall, into a platform for a childs seat to be securely mounted in the centre. what would this involve do you think? i mean surely it will have to be safety tested by someone? i was thikning something along the lines of seat in the middle and soe storage space either side. but any thoughts, ideas, suggestions or more importantly warnings lol would be greatly appr…

guys , help, i bought a HID kit removed my existing high beam bulb and compared the two, oh dear .it appears the nissan original has a spring built into the body of it anyone come across that before, im now at a loss as to what type of HID kit to buy, i have pictures but cant attach them to this site

Hello, im having problems with my zeds windows they just both packed in a few weeks ago, i installed a new amp in the drivers side, no difference. so ive installed new drivers side motor and regualator, and got another window amp, installed it all and hey presto they both worked, next morning get into the car and the windows dont work again! the amp makes a fast clicking sound when switches are pressed. the only part i havent changed is the passengars motor and reg, all wiring looks good into the car, if i power the motors up on a battery they work fine. could the drivers side switches cause this fault?, its the only thing left!! any hel…

I can just stick these in without any conversion of anything right? http://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/H3C-ABD-Extreme-White-100W-Xenon-Pair.html?source=webgains&siteid=47683 Stupid question maybe, just want to be sure before I order. Cheers!

seems like this should be on here somewhere but i cant find it. got in the car this morning and it went up to 6 which it hasnt done b4 then slowly went down to about 1 over about 10 minutes, so the question is.......... should it be on the same pressure all the time, if so what? or is it normal to go up or down?

Just a quicky, has anyone successfully fitted a bike rack to their Zed? I've seen a tow bar with bike-holder attachment, but I don't think there is room for a tow bar due to my exhausts!
