Going to start this thread for members to post up what they did each day to there zed. I will start with getting my MOT this morning. So what did you do today on your 300?:cool3:

Didn't cost me $45 for shipping. I'll see if I can sort a group buy

 

Perfect! If you can, I'm in! :)

Does anyone know if jap spec headlights are a problem for UK mot's? My lights beam points to the right and it's got me thinking my Mot people may have an issue with that as they failed my Mot on another car cos I had an air freshener hanging from the interior mirror once!

The car has passed all mot's since 1994 in the UK but just wondering if I'm looking at a headlight change at some point?

No, you won't have any problems unless your adjusters are broken, that's the only issue you'll likely to expect and Z32 headlights are broken for adjuster breakage.

Fitted my new shags and gave her a wash :D

Thank you :) They've certainly grown on me. Was unsure at first but now really like them myself.

Checked all the fluid levels & filled up with petrol for Saturday. Saw John Barnes in the petrol station, he was having a good look at my zed.

Spent literally ALL DAY washing and polishing zebedee. Snow foam, wash, restore cut polish, pre glaze polish and finally a super resin top coat polish. I'm knackered but the car looks sweet.

Cant wail to see it again Ian :yes:

What time you leaving for jae on Friday Chris? You're coming from Basildon so I'm assuming you'll take the m1 north yea? I can't leave as early as hoped cos the damn dog wont have a babysitter early enough! So if you're passing me at the right time, maybe we can convoy?

 

Should be setting off around 4pm, taking the M11 then up the A1.

Thats a nice Z you should show more pics of it.

 

Cheers Gaz, will start a thread of my own soon then. Share some pics and updates as I go :)

When I took my prop shaft off the centre bearing was completely shot so a couple of years ago I took it to a driveshaft refurbishers and had them cut the ends off and make it a 1-piece, for the fantastic price of about £130 delivered back to me. Anyway, I pulled it out and fitted it this evening

 

That lost about 6kg off the drivetrain

Well, midnight came and I realised it was time to stop.. Got up at 2:30 (I work nights) washed, polished, swirl remover Polish, pre wax glaze and then finally a coat of mcguires gold class carnauba wax.. Realised after that image infact got stainless back boxes so polished those to a fantastic shine.. Finished and fitted the body coloured door plastics although not 100% happy with the finish, but all except the drivers window control panel done. Just got to hoover the inside and give the dash a once over with the dash shine and she's ready for the jae.. Really disappointed that the wheels haven't arrived on time. I ordered them in June and still threy haven't arrived at the shop.. Gutted as I've just finished the gold pinstripe ready for the gold wheels..

Almost disappointed enough to cancel the order..

But, at least my Z is looking fairly Good on the rims it's got..

Just missing the front centre caps which really bugs me..

Well, hope to catch up with as many of you guys as possible tomorrow cos I haven't found a hotel yet and my tent is unobtainable.. Might be a one day thing for me by the looks of things.. See you all tomorrow guys..

[fastshow]Today I'll be mostly cleaning the Zed thoroughly, inside and out, ready to hit JAE tomorrow morning![/fastshow]

 

At the minute, she's pretty filthy, but it shouldn't take too long to have her gleaming again :biggrin:

Pics please

 

 

 

 

Very nice!

Pics please
