    Can get some of the Autoglym polishes from Repco etc. Or paint places such as Anchor who sell the full range (cutting compounds, polishes, etc). :)

    If anyone needs anything for their Zed, goto Auto One Kwinana on a Mon, Tues, Thurs or Fri.

    Ask for Crystal and say you are from Aus300zx... Or you know Jamie from the 300zx club... Either way entitles you to a discount :)

    Okay, figured this needs some update pics. Ignore the crappy iPhone quality. ;)

    very nice ;D

    re-rubberised underbody looks cleaner in the pics, maybe it was the fumes and im tripping balls.

    I think it just looks better in the dark.

    To top it off, it's still sticky. Has been on there for about 2 weeks and still isn't completely dry.

    Okay, she's a manual! Finally! Gearbox is really smooth and the clutch is quite light. Spending the extra money to get a great cond. gearbox, rebuild the clutch system and do the job properly is definitely worth it. :)

    Managed to finish the car the night before the WA cruise, and she survived the trek, albeit on low boost. :p

    I even managed to drive the zed to work today!

    Yay! :) F1 stage 3 clutch is fine without the clutch booster. Not heavy at all, but it is a bit on/off. Will bed it in properly and then report back.


    Painted it on with a brush using the 3M stuff then sprayed over it with a rattle can of a funny brand name. Will have to check when I get home. All rubberised compounds - no bitumen.

    Has remarkably reduced road and exhaust noise in the car. I was a bit surprised at just how well it worked. :eek:
