Still working on that! Is there a cutoff point for tickets/confirmation?

I think we can hold it open for you mate ?

 

Drove it to work! ?

Looks fantastic as usual Joel. Not taking any chances with your choice of parking spot I see!

Still the best red z in the club/country JP.?

LOL - I reckon most of us do that.... I know I do!

Sadly, even though I parked like that, on an end bay, in Sainsburys car park yesterday, some idiot still managed to scuff my Zed's rear bumper.??

Luckily I was able to polish the worst of it out, but there still remains some light crazing in the lacquer; albeit not so visible unless you look hard enough. 

....And as for what I did to my Zed yesterday - I took mine our nice and early, did the supermarket shop at 7am and then took the scenic route home. And then gave it a nice wash before the sun got too hot....

Then following the little mis-hap in my post above, I got the dual action polisher out and buffed the rear bumper to polish out the scuff. Although I didn't stop there... I was enjoying myself so much, that I went over the whole car. Firstly with Meguair's Ultimate Compound, and then with Autoglym SRP. I then gave it two coats of Chemical Guy's Jet Seal - which came recommended by Peach - I love that stuff!

My Zed is now sitting in the garage with a very nice shine. I'll leave the Jet Seal a few days, and then add a nice layer of wax - probably Purple Haze. to bring out the blue-ness ? All ready for Sandringham on the 5th!!

Took the Z out of the garage to do some detailing on the BMW and Lee took this picture. On the 1st of June it will be taxed and back on the road ?

Taxed it yesterday 1st of June so now its out out. Took it to the garage to check tyre pressures and get some premium petrol and a young guy came over to ask if he could take a picture. Never got this attention driving the BMW ?

I love it when people want to come over and chat or take photos. I have a family who walk past the car to and from school, I see them every so often when Im out cleaning it. The young kids always makes a comment to his dad, so last time they walked past, I asked if he wanted to sit in it....made his day!

Paid a visit to infinity today to finally get my horrendously loud exhaust sorted, much quieter drive home, I was going to pop in and see Jimmer but had to get back for a delivery 

What did that exhaust set you back if you don't mind me asking?

£750 all in, that was for a 2.5” system 

Nice one mate...!

I'm off to Infinity on the 25th - I'll share the pics once done ?

Took them around 2.5 hours to do mine, plus on the x-pipe they have left decent length straight pipes, so I can add middle boxes to tweak the sound

They said about 2 to 2.5 hours, so that's good to know.... I'm not going for the X-pipe though, basically I'm just having my Mongoose copied - same 2.5 tubing as you - and I'll reveal my choice of tails once done ?

Methinks, they charge £750, no matter what full system you choose ?.

Did they fit cut outs?

That would tweak the sound . . .(off road use only of course)

No, I didn’t want anything too loud, my previous zorst could be heard half a mile away and droned at 2k revs, new one is far quieter 

MOT passed.

Are we going to see you at Simply Japanese this year then? ?

Another MOT pass today.? I have owned this Z for 12 years and it has passed first time every year plus all first time passes in England also. So pleased with my Fairlady and the MOT tester plus his fellow workers loved it. Did 685 miles since last MOT so need to drive it more.

Nice one gaz ? she is a stunning zed and yes i agree we don’t drive them enough although i have used mine more since the new build than i have ever used it
