Laminate Floor Question

how fast do you reckon
cheers paul . thats the fella im after. and thanks for the info on the brake upgrade . i was looking at mine again today and parked next to a fiesta you could hardly see any difference in rotor and caliper size . i know the original wheels were 16 inch but for a car running 280bhp as standard i cant help but feel that nissan fell way way short of fitting the zed with the brakes that it needs to haul in them horses

how fast do you reckon
i agree mate . as i said my bottle went way before i was anywhere near those speeds . its just a curiosity thing knowing how fast the old girl would go . i,d never max her out even if i had a 3 mile stretch of private road . any ideas on the 0-60 times as we all do these . i remember a while back a for sale thread on here for a timer that sat in the car recording 0-60 , bhp and various other readings . not sure what to search for on ebay but would be nice to have one andy

Is this a decent price?
it sounds a fair price to me for the labour involved . if you get it done right it will look good for years , get it done cheap and it wont last five minutes . i learnt this lesson . good luck with it and looking forward to seeing some nice pics

which brake calipers fit
a job im planning on doing over the winter is a brake upgrade . ive searched through old posts and forum comments regarding calipers and discs etc etc . up to now im edging towards evo 8 calipers with 350z discs along with the neccesary relocation brackets but are there any alternatives from other doner vehicles . i read somewhere that jimmytt used porsche calipers . i cannot justify the outlay for a specific taylored set up like the d2 big brake set up so what are you guys using . caliper , disc combinations . any help on this would be much appreciated ie which caliper matches up with which discs and the work involved in making them fit . i have looked at some bigger discs which use the original nissan calipers with relocation brackets but these look a total waste of time to me as there is no increase in the friction area . thanks in advance andy

Account Passwords and Security
it all goes over my head all this internet security stuff . good to know there are guys on here that understand it and can take the necessary steps to stop it . you would think they would spend their time hacking into a site for cockle picking hot spots

outter hicas joints
i ordered the rear hicas arms for mine off ebay but recieved what i think are the front inner arms . would be worth dropping them an email to make sure you are getting exactly what you want

Zedworld Chipped ECU
without having all of the above checked and if needed adjusting are you going to have the confidence to use the extra horses . i personally wanted the full health check on the engine first

Zedworld chip fitted today
when i first bought the car a couple of years back i thought it was bloody quick but it turned out to be running in safety boost , got the necessary repairs done and the car was fantastic in comparison as you can imagine . now with this new chip fitted its taken it to a whole new level . i cant recommend the upgrade highly enough . there are plenty of cheap nasty chips available on fleabay for a few quid but with the zedworld chip you get all the necessary checks and tests to make sure everything is working as it should to get the best out of it and make sure its not going to kill your engine .

Zedworld chip fitted today
after 2 years of ownership i finally got round to getting a Zedworld chip upgrade done today . Truly Awesome is the only way i can describe it . on start up she sounded smoother and a bit quieter . ran her around for a few minutes to get her warm and then gave her the beans on a straight bit of road . the difference was amazing . she absolutely flew , i nearly shit myself and the mrs squeeled like the time i came home from work early and caught her sitting on the washing machine . every zed owner should have one of these fitted . i thought she was quick before but i reckon she must be at least a second quicker to 60 now . go on boys treat yourselves . thanks jeff for the thrills
