    We currently have 5 more spaces available for the evening meal so come on guys put your name down and enjoy the fun!

    I just spent the past hour ordering the trophies and got a bit carried away!!

    When I spoke to Moped Mark at Ace Cafe he suggested we have runners up in each category and I have also added a new category so there are lots of pots to win!!

    Plenty of room on the list.

    It's going to be an awesome day and evening. Get yourselves along guys Andy has done a great job getting this together.

    Interior cleaning and fitting of new stereo

    Anything you do to clean your 350Z dash will eventually end up with wear marks as the paint rubs off easily.  So the best thing to do is to take it out and respray it with a nice matt clear coat to finish it.

     

    In the short term though most dash cleanders should be OK, but someone like @ilogikal1 or @SuperStu will probably give you the best advice on really good products.

     

    As for stereos there are loads of double din units that you could put in, it really depends what you want.  Touch screen or not / android compatible / apple car play compatible, budget, etc.  If you let people know what you're looking for more specifically they've a better chance of helping you find what you want. :thumbs:

    Extension on Evening Meal Booking.

    I spoke to the event organiser this week and have cancelled the DJ. 

    They cannot accommodate all of us in the main restaurant so I have agreed to stick with the function room (originally booked for 40) with a head count of 35 diners.

    we currently have 27 paid so I’m confident we can rustle up 8 more over the next four weeks to stop Buster,Humpy and Muxlow hoovering up the extra grub!!!

    Or we could work out our very own 350z-uk Man Vs Food Challenge as part of the evening entertainment?:snack:

    Manufactures state that to safeguard themselves I think, probably something drawn up 400yrs ago and never amended just like braking distances in the highway code LOL

    Well we do still measure in horse power, so you might be right.

    Manufacturer states 1000 miles can see 1litre usage. 

    So if the manufacturer states up to 1l per 1000 miles why do people get so worried if they get to that consumption level? It's not really excessive of Nissan say that's quite normal.

    Personally I'm running 10w40 in my DE (116k) and it's absolutely fine. I was also looking at the catch can route as a possible but was recommended to go up to 10w40 as a better alternative.

     

    The reason being the larger lower end molecules should have less chance of passing the wearing seals.
