Was it hard to zero the needles back as you had to take them completely off?

Sorry haven't been following this, do you have a bodykit or stock bumpers? I like the rear panel. Great job mate.

I posted those indiglow ones ^^, but Joe wanted something more subtle lol.

Don't the moman ones not have holes at the edges to slot in place? IE no need for glue, or do they not work like that.

That's the plan, I don't have an intention in keeping it. For a new car, unless something really catches my eye I am going to share a family car 1.1l etc. Zed will never be the daily. It's never been the plan to have the Z as a first car.

Both auto yes because they are cheaper :( If I'm being honest I've only parked them so can't really comment personally on the power feel. my opinion is based on being a passenger, IE talking about the holding gears at top end etc. The points about manual were more general points not relative to the Z specifically.

I have a TT and an na. :wink:

Mine are ZSport, look exactly stock but go up to 300, have a Zsport logo on, and remove limiter.

I would like them, but I have aftermarket clocks that go up to 300kph, so i dont know if the readings will be in the right place, maybe need a different resistor or something??

I believe they should all have the switch next to the selector: Hold / A/T / POWER

I haven't heard of them, but I assume they are similar to these ones?? http://www.zcentre.co.uk/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.pbv.tpl&product_id=172&category_id=73&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=7

The infamous question of auto or manual transmission. (Obviously I'm not an experienced driver so you can call me out if I'm wrong) I have only drives the auto of this car, but personally I think later on I will swap it to a manual. Firstly, being from the 90s, the auto box is sluggish. When you accelerate, it will hover at the high revs for a second, and then shift (not particularly quickly). Yes the auto box is very smooth, but not rapid. Also autos are only 4 speed but I don't know how much difference that makes. Secondly, manuals in general (for me) are so much more fun. My experience of driving comes from offloading so it's much more involving to be able to downshift, clutch kick and just shifting with pulls in general. If you are city based, auto would be the obvious choice, for traffic it makes it much more bearable and easy to drive, and for cruising as well. But for me it has to be manual for the enjoyment factor. Let's hear your opinion of what you prefer :)

Warmer weather on the way. Who's getting out their Z and would like to arrange a meet?

Unfortunately I can't join till ~20 June, but I can set one up for you guys if you want. I'll post there :)

Mines next to the gear shifter, but i have also seen it drilled into the center panel next to the clock.

It looked like a great even by the sound of things. I'd hope to make it on the stand next year if I'm not busy.

Colour?

Perhaps not then, I thought I remembered taking one off. The silicone hoses should be fine to reuse also.

Yes, but i was thinking about thermostat O rings, and also my rubber hoses had corroded onto the aluminium. Just a thought.

Beautiful shots :)

Swapping any coolant pipes?

The only blue Z i know in London is Rolondas (who sadly bailed the forum) but his has/had multispoke wheels. Could be the same car though maybe? Would like to find out who's it is either way.

If your clips snap when getting them off (as mine did) I have some extra i can send to you.

Hi Jeff. Great looking Car!
