Strudul

It is a fast car with a big engine and it can use a lot of fuel

When you're spending upwards of £50-£60 a month on it or more then there is no reason why it has to taste like a glass of sick.

Cardiff Sports Nutrition is my local go to place for this type of stuff and they're great as they were more than happy to let me try samples in their shop of lots of different shakes etc.

 

Some tasted vile and others were incredibly nice, ...with the vile ones doing the same job as the nice tasting ones I'd be mad not to go with the ones that tasted nice to me.

What flavours are you trying?

If you stick to unflavoured and mix it with a decent ratio of milk it pretty much just tastes like milk (maybe with a hint of porridge). It's great for me, cos I love milk, though I can see why you'd be finicky if you don't like milk...

^+1 this. Only takes a minute to give em a poke.

Don't see why not, but you'll have to check the current / voltage and it may require a resistor.

Does that budget need to cover peripherls (monitors, kb, mouse, speakers)

I kinda like unflavoured whey. Just mix it with milk and it kinda tastes like... milk.

Unflavoured Whey Concentrate, don't see the point spending more on isolate unless you have to.

Would recommend bit-tech over Overclockers, but it's just personal preference.

Best advice would be to buy used - either individual components or a full system. Unless you need the very latest spec cos you're running 4k or VR, you will save so much and still get excellent performance.

I would avoid ebay, but if you try the marketplace section of a dedicated forum, you can find some really good deals.

Don't be afraid to build it yourself either, it only takes 5 minutes. You just stick things where they fit - you can't really go wrong. (Though even the best of us forget to plug stuff in and have a mini panic attack when we press the power switch and it doesn't boot.)

Im using Protien Dynamix for all my stuff at the moment. They were crazy cheap compared to the other main names which I used to use. I got 25% off using a code, plus cashback via topcashback. Worth checking out next time you need anything.

Bought my last few lots from Protein Dynamix. Was hesitant at first cos it was so cheap, but it seems alright.

whilst I finish restoring my 1968 Mustang Fastback.

 

I am somewhat amazed as it looks like noone else read this. But pictures please!!

One day I plan to rebuild one of these. I am just lacking money, a garage, some tools and a clue of what to do!

Oh wow, no I didn't. It's a dream to own one of those. Definitely put some pics up.

That silver Z proving it's boot still opens

Could do midweek, but it'd need to be quite close by.

Should probably check in here.

Drive between Wakey and Hud most days.

Saw a black Z with a Cobra sticker parked outside Lidl the other day which I'm gonna assume to be raysw20.

Welcome.

5k is better, but it's still gonna be a low tier early model.

You might be alright, just make sure you carry out a really thorough inspection.

Welcome.

now I'm back at uni I keep missing lunch.

 

 

I'm finding this too. Most of my classes give no time for lunch. I'm mostly in 11:30-1:30/2 as a second session. Come 1pm I'm starving.

I think I just need to get back into the habit of making a packed lunch or my peanut butter "flapjacks" and having a munch during lectures.

Sticking to my M/T/Th/F, working round uni.

Diet is getting sloppy though. Was going really well while I was working, but now I'm back at uni I keep missing lunch.

Trying to get back up to my previous 95Kg, but if past years are anything to go by I'll lose weight over xmas...

I think it would be better if you keep orange highlights throughout the car. If you swap to a black handbrake, you could at least wrap it in orange or black with orange stitching - same for the gaiter.

Did they ever work for you? I believe they're run off separate pumps, so it would be strange if both pumps failed at the same time.

Can you hear anything when you try use them?

Also just to make sure, you are pushing the stick forward to use the rear washers and pulling it for the front?

Also check your headlight washers with the button if you have them.

Edit: Wow, fixed that spelling - didn't realise how bad it came out on my phone.

Well encountered first problem! Washers don't appear to work from stalk any ideas guys much appreciated.

Front and back?

Just thought I'd throw this out there.... Have you checked for any obstructions under the bonnet. I've noticed this twice on mine and each time I'd left something under the bonnet - usually the battery cover.

As i mentioned in the OP, there doesn't seem to be anything blocking it, and I can push it down, but it just springs back. :/

At least I still have a Z, you traitor

Yeh, but "hood" is shorter and sounds better.

Don't worry, I still say "boot" rather than "trunk".

Although "sedan" is starting to take over from "saloon" too.

Shifter is definitely the same colour. It's just darker due to how the light is(n't) hitting it. Compare it to the top of the seats (which are also under a shadow), rather than the bottom.
