Cars and coffee Cheshire -chester castle 12/3/2017
HEADPHONES replied to Zpmc's topic in Forum Discounts
I'm thinking of going to this. Is it fairly easy to park/come and go at any time, or is it a case of get there early and get blocked in waiting for the finish before you can leave? Was thinking of arriving about 8am and leaving 11ish at the latest. -
However fast the price may be dropping, as long as you are looking to keep one for a few years i still reckon they represent good value. After all, most of the really big losses have been taken by the original purchasers.....LIKE ME . I reckon if i sold mine I'd lose about £25k! But an 05 DE with factory Nismo kit and LMGT4s losing £25k over 12 years works out about £2k a year.......Worth every penny in my opinion and still giving plenty smiles per mile So as long as you worked out it was an affordable purchase at the time and aren't looking at short term ownership it'll always be good value in my opinion

Following on from AMT's thread on the 2016 Q60 coupe, I saw this and think it's the dog's dangles https://www.netcarshow.com/infiniti/2017-q60_project_black_s_concept/

Welcome to the OC. Yours is the first I've seen with the led DRLs in the grill and it looks really neat -
Sounds like a mighty fine Zed is evolving. Looking forward to pics of the car
-
Looking good in its new suit. Must feel like having a new car with flawless bodywork now. I bet you found it hard to not just sit there for ages gazing at the blue when you picked it up!

Nice acquisition Stu Until you get a new head unit I can highly recommend this..... https://www.amazon.co.uk/d/Car-Vehicle-Electronics/TeckNet-Bluetooth-Transmitter-Transmission-integrated/B010NI8JL0/ref=sr_1_sc_1/254-7056647-8595934?ie=UTF8&qid=1488400195&sr=8-1-spell&keywords=Technet.+Bluetooth+fm+transmitter A fellow member recommended it. I can't fault it. Tune mine to 100.7 Fit and forget. Auto on. Auto connect. No need to retune each time. Like I said......fit and forget. Just use your phone as a music player, and all for under £13 delivered! Also looks really discreet when plugged in. Even the display matches your blue paintwork

I use a place with a MEGAMOUNT SMART machine. Very rim friendly. See this thread for pics and vids. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/104715-rim-friendly-manchester-tyre-services/page__hl__%2Bmanchester+%2Btyre

Welcome to the OC. Always loved the Honda Del Sol Vti. Haven't seen any on the road for a while now which is a shame.

[SOLD]2004 GM Coupe Manual 68k - The Shark For Sale
HEADPHONES replied to Stutopia's topic in Zeds For Sale
Damn......Just seen this! Will be sad to think of you selling your zed but looking forward to you posting up details of your new acquisitions Needless to say your continued presence on here is MANDATORY Someone will be getting a mighty fine Zed that's very tastefully modded GLWTS -
Fair enough! Where do you usually pick it up from? https://www.amazon.co.uk/d/Car-Parts/Power-Maxed-Ww5000-Concentrate-Liters/B00U23AU96/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1487880019&sr=8-1&keywords=power+maxed+jet+wash

I'm quite unlucky that my wife has bad hay fever and so we dry her delicate clothes in a room running a dehumidifier. A by product is a constant supply of deionised water though Without this as a final rinse I'd get water spotting unless I drove it down the motorway to clear the water
-
This is what I use for a quickie. 100 ml in a 2 litre pump sprayer. Go to the Jetwash. Spray over the car. Wait 5 mins while I clean my rims using another pump sprayer filled with shampoo. £2 in the Jetwash to rinse off body, rims and undercarriage. Job done : thumbs: I'm a bit extra so I then rinse with deionised water in a couple of 2l coke bottles to prevent water spotting. It'll never be clean enough with a touchless wash to use a drying towel after!

My best memories are from the era when neons etc were all the rage. Looks good to me Part of the appeal of the VW GTI to me are all the interior led accents. Maybe I'm a bit like a moth.....Just love lights Got a drawer full of led torches and rechargable motion activated LED lights dotted around my cellar. Now if I ever stick my those rechargeable motion activated LED spots all over my Zed you can call me Chav AND COME ROUND TO SLAP SOME SENSE INTO ME TOO
-
Welcome along. So what are the first items on your wish list?
-
Welcome to the OC. Supra looked stunning
-
I had already used a clay mitt and C2V3 on the zed 2 weeks ago so today was meant to be just a quick wash and tyre shine. But as it only takes 10 mins to apply C2V3 I couldn't resist slapping another layer on.
-
The second pair is actually a bargain. First one is £180 and only ONE turtle. So many extra turtles on the second for an extra 15 notes!
-
Wow......One elderly owner from new. That's quite a find! In fact by the time I sell my zed, that's what the new owner is gonna say about my car
-
Look so nice I would keep them in the lounge and just admire the blingness for as long as possible until fitting :b

did anyone else manage to get Valetines Day Wrong ?
HEADPHONES replied to ioneabee's topic in Off Topic Discussion
I've told my wife never to waste money on buyinge a card. £3 on a piece of paper that just goes straight in the recycling bin. Told her I'd be much happier with being handed a kebab with "happy valentine's" or "happy birthday" scribbled on the wrapper......AND THAT'S THE TRUTH! I mean...would any of you not be happier with good nosh over a poxy card. Anyway I was greeted with not one but TWO of my favourite chocolate covered marzipan bars from home bargains. Half the price of a card and a gazillion times more scrumptious. I did however wimpout and give her a card and a Pandora bracelet as I had already negotiated giving going out for dinner a miss and wrangled going training with my mates in the evening instead -
The ending really had me

Same as a reader. There's a sticky on the forum with a list of codes and what they mean. Get the code by reading the flashing EML on the dash and then reset as shown in the video. Obviously if you have genuine unresolved issues the EML will go out but just return again.
-
Just crawling home in rush hour and EML comes on . Alas thankfully pedal dance showed 0000 and a reset saw it vanish as quickly as it came on. For all newbies I highly recommend placing this on your YouTube 350z playlist. Saves alot of anxiety for times when the zed throws a random wobbler......And you don't even need a stop watch, just copy the woman in the video Watch I would place this quite near the top of the most useful nuggets of wisdom I got from the OC!
