Chris`I

Nice and sunny in South London

Quite pleasant in Dorking too

Chuffin cold in Reading but at least its dry

I know mate, F*****g work Already booked off for next year though Hopefully catch up at another event

Good work - thats dedication right there!

Yeah, fresh fall so not icy at all. Just a good crunch under tyre. Do I detect a group ride in the offing then?

Damn you *shakes fist*

Must be an update to IE10. The forum doesn't natively have spell checking that I know of. Firefox and Chrome have had this for years, IE is finally catching up. Ditto the simleys disappearing, must be an IE10 issue as they work fine for me on FF and Chrome.

Dont have IE10 at work, I'll have a look at it tonight when I get home. My guess is MS decided not to follow standards and broke something again *sigh*

I cannot use Emoticons and cannot go to the next line using the enter key..!!

Sorry, what? Care to tell us what browser and OS you are using? Might be a bit more helpful so we know what we're dealing with

"Less than an ideal situation"

Very level headed. I was waiting for the dude to ask if he can carry on and see what the instructor said to that!

Sorry we've been archiving old threads to try and alleviate this kind of issue, but if its been busy then it may have been the cause or added to the load. I'll keep the archiving work to non peak times. I seemed to be going ok at 21:30 when last checked. Should speed things up once we're done.

Ah, but its protecting very expensive contents

Try now

Good that we can help the local economy!

Are you going to arrange some tankers of fuel? We could get some group buy discount

US edition of the Nismo is meant to be a stripped out racer, akin to the GT3 in 911 terms. However, Nissan's take on that is to give you crappy non-leather seats and remove the sat nav I think over here they'll stick all the extras on so they can charge more

But I'd have to use holiday days to get the time off. Could be fun though. What's the cost involved? Anything over a fiver is a no go!

 

Will pick you up in my Winnebago for free if you cook breakfast both mornings on the way there

Swing past mine on the way, we can split the fuel bill

I got 8.9 out of a tank once and it took over a hundred quid when i filled it. Wasn't on roads though

I got about that at an airfield day. The whole tank was an average of 16MPG and that was with half a tank for cruising there and back to up the reading a bit

Tidied and unlocked.

Needs spacers & lowering

Oh he walked into that ok didnt he

Maybe do it before and after just to be sure?

Certainly shows the kind of fallout you get around metalworking. My old Zeds used to live at Slough train station car park and after a few months the paint would feel horrible. If I did as you did with Iron X it would have likely looked the same. Made the clay bar earn its keep!

Can any one give me some advice on stone chips that have gone to metal, rust spot?

By no means an official answer, but on my old 350z, I had a rusty stone chip on the roof line at the windscreen. I got some Krust from Halfords, put that on as directed then painted over the top with a P4U touchup kit. Couldn't see it was there afterwards and it never came back or bubbled from underneath

Paints4u are a great colour match for the GM Zed. When I had my 350z it was far better than Halfords.

I'm just finishing a little spray project today where I've used some P4U rattle cans and again the colour match to the bus is very good.

Cleanse before wax depending on which polish you use. As said above, if it breaks down properly then you're fine, but if you're using AG SRP, it has fillers/silicone which you'll want to remove so cleanse the paint before wax.

If in doubt do what you feel like, at the end of the day the most important phase is removing the defects, anything after that is just adding a few percent of perceived benefit

I have a Boardman which i ride to work when the weather is up to it. Hasn't been out much in the last season but the year before I was riding to work 3 days a week. Weekends are reserved for proper riding though

Is that a legitimate website? I cant check from work. The Team do no condone links to illegal websites/services, so link removed for now.

My sister told me Yahoo won't accept F*ckoffyoulowlifescumbags22

I would be very worried of any company that monitors what you try to put as a password. Technically the more profusely abusive you are in your password, the stronger it is! You should see some of the system passwords we have at work, no hacker will ever guess or brute force them with a library attack

I don't mean to add pressure... but you're getting close to Wales if you include the 6-8 weeks waiting for the paint to harden before you can polish/wax it.

Good job its not a Zed eh! Function over form on this vehicle, we can polish it at a later date. You'll be lucky for it to be clean, let alone polished
