Ooooops......meant to write Donut Media I follow these guys on YouTube. They've recently bought 2 zeds. One is being modified with cheap parts, the other with expensive. They then compare the "bang per buck" Here's a few on brakes, tyres, suspension to get you started I think Dan will be contacting them regarding their choice of Bridgestone over Michelin

Just started watching this. Opening car scene was pretty insane

Just a simple wash this morning for the Kia then BSD/CGV07 MIX 50:50 as a drying aid.

The Pandora Arcade unit was received today. Very well packaged. All working WONDERFULLY WELL. As I was testing it out, my 8yr old who totally dismissed the idea of this non PS4 device as rubbish couldn't wait to get his hands on it . Many thanks

Not driving the car over winter, should I disconnect the battery?
HEADPHONES replied to MartinW's topic in 350Z General
A charger is really good even if the car is driven but just infrequently and shorter trips. My wife's car only does a few short trips a week. 5-10 min a time. I'll hook it upto a charger a few times a year to fully charge. Same with our family car which is only driven Friday and Saturday. The batteries in all of our 3 cars are around 8yrs old and still going strong. I've been using this cheap AA one for years. Allegedly senses the battery condition similar to a Cteck and adjusts the charging accordingly until full and then switches to trickle maintenance mode. https://www.amazon.co.uk/AA-Battery-Charger-Maintainer-Batteries/dp/B00DW6RHN2 -

With no disrespect This reminds me of a Blue bottle fly! Mesmerising colour Used to see loads as a kid but not seen one in years........the flies not the zeds

Old habits die hard. Back in the 80s as a teenager with limited funds and only 1 pair of trainers, I had to make them last out of necessity and discovered SHOE GOO. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Shoe-Goo-BLACK-Adhesive-Reapir-Glue-for-Shoes-Boots-Waterproof-Large-3-7oz-Tube-/292928282055 All these years later I still haven't the heart to chuck out perfectly good trainers just coz the heel is worn. So, my favourite Air Max TN heel started life similar to this 13 months later they still looked fresh after a wash But the heel was almost totally shot on one edge. Sol a lightsandpaper to key then washed the sole. Applied the shoegoo like bathroom sealant. After a minute or two it goes tacky enough to shape with fingers and a credit card/stuff cardboard. Looks too shiny at first but after 1 wear it loses its sheen. The new heel wears down 2-3 times faster than the original but doesn't peel. Fit and forget. I've done this 3 times so far on these trainers. Originally for glueing split soles but good for heel rebuild too.

Beading is looking fantastic there Effortless touch free results. FOR A FIVER too. It's been raining daily so not sure if I got streaking without a final dry down. Even if it did, I'd still use it on wheels as the streaking wouldn't show much on wheels and applying/buffing traditional LSP to wheels in winter is not fun.

Just finished a night wash on the zed and tried TW Dry and Shine on body and wheels. Zed had Fusso 9 weeks ago and tbh it was holding out quite well still. These are after a 2bm wash and rinse. Then just spread 2 squirts per panel and GENTLY rinse with deionised water from my dehumidifier. The product looks like water when sprayed on. But when I gave a gentle pressure rinse off I could see it foaming a little which was a good indication of where and how much to carry on rinsing. These are some afters.... A little video to click on

Got this for a fiver including delivery From here using one of the many discount codes https://www.carparts4less.co.uk/p/turtlewax-dry-shine-750ml-552777351?gclid=CjwKCAiA5JnuBRA-EiwA-0ggPVSCmWK2MT45PMEZq4yxG_V6rosqTSGgz7fqXGRCjAdmwfZoc-_DqxoCwPMQAvD_BwE Gave the mini a wash. Was gonna try a dry application of TW Seal n Shine. As I finished washing....it started drizzling. No worries I have TW Dry and Shine that you just spray on and rinse off so it loves water and isn't bothered by drizzle. Hard to tell it's effect on the bodywork as there's so much LSP on it applied every wash as a drying aid. But I feel no love for the diddy 15s and they only get a shampoo. No polishing or LSP. These are pics after a little spray of Dry and Shine then a gentle jetrinse from a distance. First try was not showing beading as I jetted too close and I think blasted all the product off. Needs a gentle jet to spread it and rinse off excess So it's an Ideal product if you get caught by rain when washing bit still want a little LSP protection after the wash.

2nd and 3rd pic look like Swarovski Crystals

Problem with the Zed is it'd cost me more than £3.57 in petrol to get to Halfords and back

Spur of the moment impulse "want" has subsided. Dug out my old Chinese knock off PsP console and fed my retro gaming cravings. Small play anywhere gizmo was cheap as chips.

Cheaper than replacement. Plus extra cosmetic enhancement. WIN WIN

+1 on above 5w30 according to the manual

I remember I crunched mine on a kerb at the exit of a multistorey car park about 12 yrs ago. The repair was flawless and still going strong. Might be worth getting a quote for repair as well as replace.

The reflections are looking really crisp

Not seen many Azures on here for a while. That pic does the Azures proud I originally ordered mine in Azure but changed my mind to sunset orange a week later.......so pictures like this are a little bitter sweet for me.

Congratulations on your new Zed
