An awful lot of zeds suffer from crunching gears (mine included). 1. Replace the gearbox oil and add Molyslip. (PM ZMANALEX for the correct fluids). 2. Double clutch gear change on the affected gears. i.e. on my car from 2nd to third, i press the clutch, change from 2nd to neutral, release the clutch and press it again, and change into third. You get used to it in no time (and from habit i now do it when driving other cars too!)

If you dont want to pay full whack for a new one, then look for a 2 or a 3. iPad 1 is about 4 years old now isnt it so will be well out of date. In terms of space i wish i had a bigger one (dont we all ) At 16GB im constantly deleting apps and reinstalling them when i need space.

Yep got mine from Tarmac above. Great service.

Just get the bulbs off eBay - only about a tenner each. I've got 10000k in mine and they're a lovely colour... Go for them!

So it would seem that the Xbox One has been announced today as the next generation of Xbox console. Bit of a crappy name if you ask me, seeing as the Xbox one came out about 10 years ago! I preferred the Xbox Infinity name that was being discussed for the last few weeks. Anyway i've just read all of the release info and im a bit underwhelmed at the moment. Set for release later this year it's going to be a fully integrated home entertainment system, or all in 'one' device, hence the name. It will have an integrated Blu-Ray Player and Kinect with a 1080p camera, and has been designed to watch your standard TV through it too (via HDMI-in port) to give you additional features on top of your standard TV - for example voice and motion controlled EPG, and realtime web browsing whilst not interfering with what you're watching. As of yet though i've not seen any specific innovations on the gaming front... just a few trailers for Forza 5 and the new CoD etc... but even the graphics dont seem to be much of a step up on the current generation so im not sure what the differences are going to be? I'd also be interested to see if the planned GTA 5 is going to be affected at all. This was originally due out in Q1 this year but has been pushed back until September... but are Rockstar really going to bring this out 1-2 months before the next gen consoles come out? I think i'll be disappointed if they do.... Fairly good release information here: http://www.pocket-li...ou-need-to-know [media] [/media] With regards to the PS4... i'd be interested to here other people's opinion's on it as i've not followed it's release at all... i briefly owned a PS3 but found the Xbox to be the better console. Is anyone here going to go for one of these over the Xbox?

I was going to suggest Rocher as you should be able to get in there. I've been recommended to go to Rocher as you see much of the swimming pool area, the Ras Cas and the back of the Pits, and you also get a big TV screen infront of you. However it's just a grassy hill and you have to be there hours before the race and then not move for fear of losing your spot. I dont know if you can take fold up chairs but i would do. EDIT: I just looked on youtube and you seem to have a choice of view points from Rocher...

It's hardly a scam though is it?? A mistake has been made... if the seller mis-represented the item and told you something which turned out to not be true then he should offer you a refund. But if he doesnt it's not the end of the world... just put it back up for sale! You shouldnt lose much, if any money on it.

Cheers Ian.

Picked up my cooling panel from Chris at Japfest and finally fitted it this weekend. Got to say i'm very happy with it - it's a great bit of kit. I needed to adjust the bonnet latch as per Chris' guide, but other than that it was a very easy fit. Also fitted my Rare JDM engine cover too before Japfest... although - is it supposed to have an extra piece which covers the front of the engine slightly?

Very cool mate.

Great, glad it was of use to you. Now get a video of it up!

Been busy with my new Range Rover!

Picked mine up from Chris at Japfest. I've not fitted it yet but it's definitely a quality bit of kit and im very happy with it. Much appreciated Chris! The pics dont show the colour at all, but it's a really nice shade of blue.

That's totally badass man! Loving the rims on the Range. Not sure what to do with mine yet... will probably keep them standard for the time being. Not arranged the cars in anyway at all, just plonked on my drive, but here's some (filthy) pics.

Have you still got your Zed too? Awesome. Im looking forward to taking a pic of mine on the drive actually.... with the Range behind and the Zed infront. Might be a bit hard to setup though, as we can only drive 1 car at a time :lol:

Cheers Jim.

Just picked the Range up tonight... what a car! Even for the 2.7 diesel it feels pretty rapid. Plenty of power yet a near silent drive from within the cabin. I got 29mpg on the way home too. Lots of extras on it... voice control sat-nav is a nice touch, and it's even got a fridge! It's really easy to drive too and incredibly comfortable. I'll see if i can take some pics tomorrow. I now own my 2 of my 3 all time dream cars (Zed and RRS) ... the only other car i've had on my dream list is an F40, but i don't think i'll be getting one of those any time soon.

Sweet vid...! Good to see you there Tim!

Yesterday was the first race i have not fully watched in about 5 years - simply due to this appaling tyre saving farce that it seems to have become. Im not interested in it at all.... Why cant a driver drive to the best of his ability, pushing the envelope every single lap anymore? That's what motorsport is about, not the tacticians working out how slowly you need to drive to in order to save yourself a pitstop. Load of rubbish. last year was okay but the 3 or 4 seasons prior to that were perfect.

My god, that stuff was dreadful!! I dont know if it reacted with the wax that was already on the car or what, but my clean zed turned into a hideous, smudged dull mess when i applied it! I then went round the car with a bottle of water trying to get it off, but only some propper polish shorted it in the end.... cheers for the help guys! What was it you gave me? Be good to know what was on the car already so members can avoid the combo. I use Megs Last Touch as my QD, as yet never had any probs on my or other people's cars I'd used Dodo Juice Purple Haze wax a couple of weeks ago, and most recently a layer of Simoniz Detailer Wax the day before. Both products work fantastically but the Megs Quick Detailer was shocking. Running around like a madman at Japfest! I didn't even get to see half of it - too little time! Wish I spoke to some more Z members, but I was rushing around cleaning the car, swapping to my track wheels, re-arranging track time because I didn't have long sleeve top on! Anyway - regards to the Megs detailer - it worked perfectly for me too, it definitely does look like some sort of reaction mate. Mine was gleaming! I'm guessing AmyZed had the same result?? Is anyone uploading Japfest photos to a central location? That way we can all see the photos together? Maybe a good idea! Pics are here mate. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/71099-the-zeds-of-japfest-2013/

Here's my track video from the GoPro. You can just about see BBK on the grass at 1.38. I also had a bit of a wobble on entry to the track, and i exited the session about a couple of laps early as i had a bad vibration on my front left tyre, so got a few of you flying past whilst i was going slow. Quality looks a bit crap on youtube for some reason (you can up it to 720p) but my video file is great quality.
