HEADPHONES

Got my first ever proper camera. An entry level Canon EOS 1300D with a bundled efs18-55 lens. Looking to take pics of my sunset orange Zed at night under street lights or supermarket carpark lights. I've gathered I need a bigger aperture setting and longer exposure to let more light in. Put the shutter on a timer to prevent camera shake. But that's all i know. As there is no settings on my camera labelled "bigger and longer" I was wondering if anyone could give me rough settings as a starting point. Hoping to capture some flake popping shots soon as the old Galaxy S3 doesn't cut the mustard

The sun's out and double the pay on the way. Must be truly a breath of fresh air. Congratulations and looking forward to you taking me for a spin in the beast when it's ready

I just choked laughing But the OP said 1.No drone 2.No farting sounds and most importantly Girlfriends will eat through a £500 budget in no time!

That's a depressing sight to be greeted with in the morning. I hope you are back in a worthy Zed soon.

You must be enjoying the heat wave lately. Perfect for cruising topless

A nice collection of cars you are building there. Something for any occasion.

A beading shot after the C2v3 was applied.

By the time I managed to get a pic I'd lost the sunshine. Never seem to capture her at her best. She was positively glowing in today's heatwave earlier.

At about 6.40pm. Was a couple of lanes away in my sunset 350z but not so far as to not notice how glossy the rims were looking

My cousin in Malaysia had an accident in his BMW 328i. Accident was bad. He rolled the car THREE times. Every panel an bumper was mashed. All airbags went off. Despite the car being nearly 2 yrs old, based on the Malaysian value of the car the insurance company refused to write it off AND FIXED IT. He told me a Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT86 is about $75kUSD!

Truly an epic zed......a worthy successor to your previous project.

The proportions of that lip really blend well. Lookin good.

That colour is bang on. I can't imagine a better colour to refurbish the rays in if I had a black car. GLWTS.

Oooooo....that candy red Zed is ON FIRE Shows off the lines beautifully.

Looks to have been a busy show. That sure is a mighty fine 370z.

Is that an Invidia exhaust I spy on the rear? Must sound lovely with the roof down. Your rims are looking mighty sparkly too. Shows real commitment with so many spokes. Post up some close-ups of the rims next time you've detailed them. It would be a shame to let all that hard work go without some nice after shots.

The photos never seem to do sunset orange any justice. Especially if there isn't a direct light source like bright sunshine or street lamps. But when the sun sets (see what I did there ) sunset orange glows like a freshly forged sword Meant to be good weather next few days........enjoy the GLOW!

This little dude must be the youngest most fanatical Rocky fan EVER!

Always a case of different insurers being cheaper for different people. For my Zed for example, if it was totally standard Esure would have been cheapest. With a body kit and rims it has always been Adrian Flux that is most competitive. Just got to jump through all the hoops yearly really.

Went to buy some gifts at Trafford Centre mall. Parked where I always park. Got my shopping done. Went back to find car is GONE! Took a pic of the spot where my car should be to ask security to check CCTV on that row. They told me there was an identical mirror image car park and to turn left instead of right at the Selfridges exit. I was almost unable to string a sentence together.....but agreed to look again. Found my zed . But there were two blokes walking around it wth a car key in hand. Looked like puppies going in circles about to take a dump. The look of confusion on their faces looked very familiar . They said they couldn't find their car. I told them my story showing them the pic on my phone where I thought my car should have been. "THAT'S OUR CAR! " Never before have I been so happy to be A PLEB

Last year I used a cheap Silverline random orbital sander that was recommended years ago on DW, with a menzerna orange pad, some menzerna fine polish and then cleaned down with some apc. Coated with C4 and garaged overnight to cure. Yesterday just needed a hand polish.

Almost got a yey from me until the rear end shot..........PORCSHE!......oh dear. Maybe without the vents on the bonnet it would be less busy as the rivets are already a bit too much.

Corrected my fading headlights last year. Put a coat of C4 afterwards. Alas the cloudiness started to return. So unless I didn't apply correctly it's lasted only a year. C4 has lasted well about 4 yrs on my Mini's abundant exterior trim but alas fairs less well on the lenses. The new oxidation was minimal and was removed with Meg's metal polish by hand in a couple of minutes. I'll reapply with C4 and maybe top up with C2v3 every few weeks or so when I use it on the paintwork. Thought I'd just post up my experience in case others were expecting years of protection from C4 on lenses.

+1 on Lockwood and Greenwood. They have seen and serviced more Zeds than any Nissan dealer in Manchester garanteed! Been taking my zed there for past 8 yrs. Timing chain has no set replacement time as far as I know unlike timing belts.

The words "knob" and "delicious" in the same sentence.... dangerous! ........only if preceeded by the words "here's a video of me enjoying my....."
