HEADPHONES

Got a puncture. Used it as an excuse to remove my 19' Nismos to give them a thorough decon and later put Gtechniq C5. So dug out my standard 18s to use while awaiting delivery of a new tyre from Oponeo. Guess what.......apart from needing spacers I forgot how handsome they were. A nice simple clean design that looks less fussy than the optional 18' Rays. Albeit they are nowhere as light or good as the Rays I actually really like them ( not quite as much as the LMGT4s mind ) Anyone else a fan?

The 19' Nismo LMGT4 rims can fetch around £1200 when sold separately. Standard 18s can normally be had for about £200. If people aren't biting at your advertised price and you had the time it might be worth selling off the rims separately.

Castrol Edge on offer at Costco til 24/4 £25.90 4 litres

Maybe just as well. The money I save on oil I lose 10 times over when the missus geos shopping there

Costco sale is on again 4/4/16 - 24/4/16

Watch "SOFT99 "NEW SCRATCH CLEAR WAX" ã€SOFT99 TV】" on YouTube I've ordered this yesterday. Looks the biz. Time will tell. For me the swirls are around the tailgat where my hand opens and closes the boot. Tried SRP. Tried Prima Amigo. Lets see how this compares. Will post up my findings when it arrives.

A belated welcome from another Andy based in South Manchester

Yep. Happened when battery was low. changed it and all was fine. Your spare one is probably flat too.

Out of all the ones posted I actually like the green the most. I would take off the red Gtr badge ASAP though. Fit and finish looks quite good. Would like to see what skirts, spoiler etc go with it as it'd deffo look odd/ugly without other body mods. Some things in isolation look terrible, but as part of a balanced whole job look ace. Kinda like a boob job......can look fantastic but if you only get half the set is gonna look awful no matter how nice the single unit is

^YES..........VERY WRONG Car looks evil now

With all the recent pics I'm really feeling the headlight eyebrows at the moment. Not normally a fan of darker rims but the ones on atomic350z have a decent amount of sparkle to catch my eye. The concaveness helps accentuate the attractiveness too!

Wow.......you got some skills

That's a great informative YouTube video. Lots of other good stuff explained by him too

Many moons ago my boss got pulled one night in his 200sx. No offences committed. Just a stop and search. Officer's reasoning was he fitted the profile. Young Asian lad and performance Jap car. Either stolen and joyriding or out to commit a crime. He had his mum and grandma in the car at the time

Now the zed has deprecated to Fiesta money, comments are more from people appreciating it's form and function rather than people with a chip on their shoulder bitter that they can't afford a new £30k coupe. When I tell people that I could find them a similar 05 plate zed for £8k I is usually get an appreciative comment like....."Looks brand new/million dollars "

I saw a bog standard Quashqi with a Nismo badge in the grill. I'd feel a bit embarrassed going to a car meet or similar place being seen by car enthusiasts pointing and commenting but hats off to the fella for not giving a monkeys and enjoying the "enhanced embellishment" on his grill. I would however point and laugh out loud if there was a TypeR or AMG badge on the Quashqi

That sir is one of the meanest looking Sunsets I've seen. I salute you!

Definitely a keeper I'd say. Don't ever sell it

I ordered mine with the Nismo Aero kit. Told the dealer not to put the stickers on but leave them for me to decide later. 11 years on and I'm still deciding The one time I think it is a must is on the LMGT 4 rims. They just look naked without the decals.

I'm often envious of those who chose the "blue" pill living their carefree lives........but only for a moment until I see or hear my kids. Couldn't be "plugged back into the matrix" now I've experienced the love from my kids. Anyway we all digress, I hope the OP finds a solution to his problem as I know how down I felt at home and at work for over 2 years bottling things up letting them fester, infecting my life like a cancer. Just thinking back brings a tight sensation in my chest . Ironically my Zed was my oasis of calm. Once in my zed I'd stick on some tunes and my worries would fade away for a while while enjoyed the drive. Literally giving me some breathing space. I'm only in South Manchester so if you fancy a little mini meet to talk zeds or life PM me

When friends without kids ask me what it's like having 2 I tell them to watch "the pill" clip from the matrix. Pick the blue pill and stay childless. Enjoy your freedom. Indulge yourself in your own interests and passions. Enjoy more disposable income and life with less responsibility, blissfully ignorant of the joy a child can bring. OR Pick the red pill. Have a sprog. Kiss goodbye to sleep. Say farewell to the freedom and a carefree life. BUT....learn the truth about life as a parent. Experience the happiness and love only felt between a parent and a child. So how is my life now? Once again I quote the Matrix EVERTHING TASTES LIKE CHICKEN

Met my missus at 19. Got married at 21. 44 now. Everything was bliss. had 2 kids 7 and 4 yrs ago. Big change in lifestyle. No time to do what we used to do as individuals or as a couple. Strain took its toll and we both felt as you do. I resented trying to do THE RIGHT THING coming home after work and sharing the chors cooking etc. Gave up Kungfu which I'd done every day since 16. I'd say around the time 2nd kid came was hardest part of my life emotionally. BUT....we talked through it. Make sure we both havr a little ME time each. Obviously not as much as pre kids. This makes life much better. Gradually the "can't stand being in the same room" feeling disappeared. Love is in the air again. There is hope sometimes

The "z" on that divider looks more like an "N" for Noddy. He's even chosen "Noddy Red" to match

Just checked with the missus. Our Brittax evolva 123 seat was recommended from 9 months. Mums always remember these details better

Depending on weight and size probably between 6-12 months old. Time will fly by
