  1. Got my Saturday ticket booked. Looking forward to meet for the convoy. 1. davey_83 2. Andy_Muxlow 3. HEADPHONES
  2. Welcome to the OC Any pics of the soon to be yours Zed?
  3. It still amazes me what a bargain 350z/370Z OEM forged Rays wheels are on the used market. They probably cost Rays MORE to make than the TE37 due to their relatively small runs in comparison to the TEs
  4. Looks like we've got more in common than just a Zed
  5. Good save She must think you're some kind of wizard with those results
  6. Looks like another successful day. How many Zeds were there in total?
  7. Have a great day peeps. I'm spending tomorrow with my parents otherwise I would definitely be there be it rain sleet or snow I look forward to some great photos of the meet.
  8. I thought about that but didn't want the paint stripper to drip down past the lips to the rest of the painted wheel. Keeping it vertical prevents this.
  9. Finally got round to sorting ONE rim today. 1 hour repeatedly applying paint stripper with a brush and wiping wit a kitchen towel to the bottom half. Then rolled the car forward and another hour on the other half. Washed and coated with Soft99 Fusso.
  10. Poor Zed looking much happier in your hands now. That GT4 plaque looks gorgeous. Brings back memories of many hours playing GT4 on my PS2. That cracked alloy looks like an accident waiting to happen Imagine if you knew nothing about cars and bought it driving off without checking!
  11. I was absolutely shattered when I got home. Adrenaline rush and excitement all day took it's toll. Racked up 450 miles door to door. Even had my wingman Tony from Preston convoy there and back. Special thanks to our Wales coordinator Jerry , @davey_83 and @Phil T (and Jules) for all they're work in making it a great day for all of us.. The road to THE BLACK HUT was like nothing I've seen before EVER!
  12. "collision investigators work to establish a clear understanding of what led to the collision." I could save them the time and money. Plainly obvious it was the irresponsible overtaking actions of the Lambo
  13. Imagine how much smaller the world's carbon footprint would be if more people maintained older cars rather than scrapping and replacing them. Keep up the good work 👍
  14. Before and after difference from inside
  15. My commute to work has the sun directly on my driver's side going to work and the same all the way home. The Zed's visor is too short to sheild my face when flipped to the side window. Having been an avid "Blue Peter" veiwer in my childhood off I went armed with a cereal box, some scissors, an old t-shirt, needle and thread It just slides over the sun visor, so I can pull it out as an extension to shield my face
  16. Welcome to Zed life. Sorry to hear that you have problems already. Hopefully it's a cheap fix
  17. Welcome to the OC Those polishing pad attachments for cordless drills are very handy. I've yet to do paint correction with them but have polished headlights with mine and applied glazes to the paint with them too
  18. I had coil packs 2 & 6 fail on me last month. As I'm not mechanically minded I got all 6 replaced for peace of mind. Keeping the other 4 old ones that didn't fail in the boot as spares. Garage reassured me my plugs were oil free too and rocker cover seal was still good.
  19. Both great tyres with great wear resistance. I'll need some new MPS4s on my rears soon. May try the continental when I need to change the full 4 in a couple of years. As the MPS4S will almost be a 10 year old model by then and will probably get discontinued soon. Hate having to replace a set of rears only to find sourcing difficulties to match the fronts coz they've been discontinued
  20. Have a great day peeps whatever the weather.
  21. The 90s saw some of Jackie Chan's greatest films. One of which was THUNDERBOLT. Japanese 90s performance cars in abundance 😁
  22. There are companies that will come out and polish the glass for you. My brother in London had his done. If you order a new windscreen there are threads I've read about extra precautions the fitters need to take to prevent damaging trim during the process so it'd be worth maybe printing info out for them in case they aren't aware. But a chip repair kit should help prevent a chip it turning nto a cracked screen which may leave you stuck until you get a new one.
