  1. Oldie but goodie I'm sure I've seen an extended version of this way back
  2. How many miles you done since putting it on the calipers? Does it withstand the high temps OK? If it's durable I reckon you may need to contact the suppliers and warn them of a deluge of orders to come Have a round of applause for a great find
  3. The pics really show off the sunset a treat
  4. Next time inform all camper owners that you will be paying for all "camper's" dough-nuts. When they arrive point to the car park, point to their camper vans and say "show me your dough-nut and i'll show you the money"
  5. I find it hard to get photos to do sunset's justice, but those of us in the know can revel in the orange glow after a detail On a side note is it just my 350z or do others rear wiper only lift an inch from the rear screen? Yours seems to be much further off........makes changing the wiper easier. Now I'm jealous
  6. Without seeing the reg plates you'd never guess it was a 7yr old car. LOOKS MINT
  7. Passed a fellow sunset and exchanged a wave My first time getting a wave back
  8. God created the orgasm so that women can moan even when they're happy
  9. You should lease out your wife's Clio as a cure to Zedders with thoughts of selling up Here's to your next 4 yrs with the zed
  10. Final pic showing the paint after rinsing thoroughly and drying. I repeated the process twice and left to dwell about 5 mins each time as my paint was PEPPERRED. The car was bought new in 06, always washed with 2BM using MF mitts and towels. Clayed twice a year and treated with SRP, Gloss Gaurd and collinite but still succumbed to "yellow acne" Seeing this work rates up there with seeing clay and Tardis work for the first time. Saying that I've not seen the same yellow spots on my sunset 350z in 5 yrs of ownership but when i have time I'll try it on the 350z to see if any PURPLE runs off
  11. Finally used the AQuartz iron cut today. Attached 3 pics showing paint after a wash. After spraying on the product it reacts with bonded iron particles turning purple. After dwelling for a few mins you can see it running off the paint.
  12. I had this problem last weekend. They layed new tarmac near work. Some kind cat with tarred feet walked all over my car. Big thick pawprints Clay wouldn't shift the really thick bits. Soften with WD40, wiped, then clayed residue. Paint felt like glass but still marks left. Used an AIO sealant/cleanser (Carlack NSC) and the jobs a goodun So a combination of all the recomendations worked for me.
  13. I have been using Chemical Guys Wheel Gaurd for past 3 years. Used once a month or so. Only ever use regular shampoo to wash the rims. I like the fact it has cleansing properties. Used Collinite and TW Gloss Gaurd previousely which protected but didn't cleanse. Consistancy is like a cream, so easier to apply than a wax but slower than a watery liquid like Goss Gaurd. Easy to buff off.
  14. Oh well, that was a quick contest.........don't think anyone can go lower than 0.2 let alone ZERO
  15. Come on guys'ngals. Own up..........WHO HAS THE HEAVIEST RIGHT FOOT. My size 9s weigh in at a conservative 19mpg this past year
  16. The kit on your zed is spot on Looks real menacing and purposeful without being OTT. First time I've seen that kit. You must be very happy.

    Alfa 8C

    Love the telephone dial alloys too If only British roads were just as wide. Seems everyone's parking 8inches away from the curb........probably really para about kerbing now
  18. My deepest sympathies to Ian's family. I first met Ian in March this year when he came to Manchester Krispy Kremes with his other car club from Stoke offering an open invitation to 350z owners. Despite being the only outsider that attended he made me feel really welcome. Such a friendly bloke with a personality anyone would find hard not to like. Still can't believe or take this news in.
  19. Chris, who would have thought a promotion would bring so many headaches It's nice to have the options though For me my situation was the opposite. Baby came and wife had a mini and me a zed. That meant the mini is my weekend car and only really use the zed to and from work But the zed is my only oasis of sanity. Work is hard and long, and save the weekends for family. Love the kid to bits but no more socialising, no going training, home cinema/stereo always on ultra low vol, even detailing the zed at night now using halogens on the drive What I'm getting at is if your gonna be working and driving long and hard, a diesal may leave a few grand in your pocket but you'd be spending hours sitting in a car pining for a zed. Alot of driving means spending MORE OF YOUR LIFE IN A CAR so surely the zed choice would be even better "value" in the "pound per wear" sense. You even told me you missed your in car sounds and didn't put anything decent in the fiesta as it didn't deserve it. GET THE ZED, GET THE I.C.E, ENJOY YOUR COMMUTE. ZEDS ENRICH YOUR LIFE
  20. I got a JVC DAB single din unit......love it to bits. See my original thread for pics etc viewtopic.php?f=27&t=37876&hilit=bose
  21. We're talking Manchester city centre in rush hour traffic
  22. Was driving to work today and saw a cyclist towing what appeared to be a pram on two wheels. Went home and googled them. http://www.richardsonsonline.co.uk/acc_ ... %20Trailer Advert says TOUGH steel construction/ wrap around bumper for SAFETY I got goosebumps just thinking of the horrific accidents that could occur. So many daydreaming motorists don't even spot cyclists in their mirrors let alone a buggy below waist height being towed by a cyclist. Makes the worries that zed owners have about carrying babyseats pale into insignificance.
  23. Vaseline sounds a bit risky. If it can deteriorate the rubber in JIMMY HATS not sure how it reacts to door seels
