What did you do to your zed today?
Can’t be arsed with the social media drama getting too old for it. Jimmer has been looking after mine since I bought the slick top it won’t be going anywhere else, well worth the 180 mile journey

What did you do to your zed today?
Dropped the zed off to Powerzed Wednesday for a service and a few other bits. Graphics are now removed and my reg plate is now officially changed

Risk it for a biscuit - bought a -potentially- broken Z
Cracked pistons are caused by detonation, primarily through timing or if the motor has been run too lean at high rpm

The replies in question are all from previous customers, that unfortunately Mike decided to offer no lifeline to after they’d forked out thousands, in build costs. I’ve personally known Mike longer than most, his business acumen appears to be lost completely since I was a customer of his. In response to timing the car prior to tuning, I’ve never known any tuner allow a car anywhere near a dyno without the timing being checked first, refusal for the timing being set, I have seen personally on many occasions. I’d also expect a car to be checked that it’s actually running before it sees a dyno, it’s common sense for both the builder and the mapper. I’m not attempting to apportion blame herein any direction, but how a company handles an issue says everything about them. I don’t see playing blame tennis helps anyone’s situation, but with regard to the OP, what no guarantees after 2 month ???? 10k and zero warranty. Let’s hope his current customers don’t get the same issues. You can’t go on like this in business and expect a good response

Guess who’s back
Due to collect my 4th TT very soon, and yes it’s getting the 12j Rotas in pink fitted. Not everyone’s choice of wheel but it is mine, so if you don’t like Rota wheels keep on scrolling and don’t bother with negative comments I’m not interested in any other opinion other than my own, after all it’s me who pays the bills. Now if someone could possibly tell me how to upload photos on here it would be greatly appreciated

Uk seller
I am personally still trying to get the Police to realise this is a case of internet Fraud or theft in the very least. I have been threatened with arrest myself over alleged threats to D.K., which I have denied, as at no point did I make or imply a physical threat to him. I will do everything I can to stop him doing it again.

What did you do to your zed today?
Took the Zed out for a test drive for the first time since all the mods were put on, and had the base map put on the Nistune board. Tomorrow the boost is turned up and I finally get to see what she makes.

So Many Great Members Gone
It was the email from Jaikai, that made me think about the forum again. I must admit had it not been for the kindly reminder, I would probably not considered it.

Not quite a newbie, but its been a while.
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome back to the fold. With regards my Facebook ban, David Kemshell, had the audacity to accuse me of threatening him and bullying him to the FB goon squad,resulting in a 24 hour ban. Unfortunately due to me arguing the point, that Facebook must have a duty of care, as the goods were advertised on there,my ban lasted 72 hours. The comment that got me banned was simple, "Stop moaning about it, and pay your victims", hardly a threat. IMHO. Myself and Suren off the Nismo group, are working together to hopefully get refunds for everyone concerned and/or a conviction. Mr Burns I promise not to be too controversial lol, I was thinking of changing my profile to Marmite.....you either love me or hate me

Not quite a newbie, but its been a while.
I am currently banned off facebook over David Kemshell, however myself and Suren are gathering the crime numbers together, for the Police, to realise this is multiple frauds. Only too happy to help out - - - Updated - - - Hey up Ian mate - - - Updated - - - hey up Ian mate

Is it right to disrespect somebody else's personal preference ?
I just love Zeds don't care what they look like as long as people run them. Where mines parked for winter there's 2 Mk1 supra turbos been stood for 6 years not covered a rusting pile of rubbish now. These are the owners we should be having a go at those that let fantastic cars just go to waste, so what if you use fibreglass or hone a panel from a sheet of ally, the important thing is we keep the cars on the road!

The track is the best place to sort any minor misunderstandings I agree, but I'm not restricted to the pod my car corners rather well lol

Is it right to disrespect somebody else's personal preference ?
That's fine if it's you that posts the pics however, I didn't post the pics but the person who did uses the same avitar on here as they do on barryboys, I don't ask for opinions because only mine matters when it comes to my family and car!

Is it right to disrespect somebody else's personal preference ?
I only wish they posted the pic of the car prior to July when the car wasn't even drive able, then to see the difference if not tasteful but still amazing . I do go to all the big shows I made Trax and last Jap show on the 300zx stand. It's not the finished article by a long way, bonnet nose panel bumper wheels paint are all being changed now, the fluro look was always a temporary look same as the VS1 front. I've not posted any photos of my car on here yet because it is work in progress but it will always remain to my taste and style !

It wasnt the comments regarding style that bothered me as much as "1 mot from the scrapyard" No it was destined for the scrapyard until an idiot like me came along and pumped approx £8k into her. So that to me was personally offensive my paint is MARMITE love or hate it not bothered. I just felt the urge to ask the question
