That's right, procky strikes first!! Muhahahaha Awesome day (worth the 1000km and 2 tanks fuel) Reasonable weather yet due to getting split up didn't get half as many photos / video as I wanted!! Majorly upsetting. Rob ended up with one group and I collected the others , Mandy grabbed one of our newer members cruising along on L plates!! Good looking car. Great turn out but!! Was awesome. NSW pulled a 20 car cruise together !! That's only about 14 short of what we had at zedfest 2012 Dubbo I think. Uploading pictures now will post within next 30 minutes. Zed ran terrifically , didn't miss a beat. Now she's earned a oil change Really hope someone got a film of me opening up the octane pedal down that straight lol. Thanks to rob for organising the day. Ran relatively smoothe.
Great It was really fun meeting everyone. It was a well planned event Rob. The road was insane!! Hope everyone got home safe. Will post a link to uploaded pictures soon.:zlove:
Pictures as promised (more to come) An old friend poked in for a visit Zeddy making us all look like wankers "quote anti" ;p The group chilling out, was nice to see some other Z family cars!! Obligatory arse shot Swap meet time, ft. Arthur Uber tough!! Emiles thing blocking my shot, lol >.<! Arthur tailing me (trying anyway ) Ben and his amazingly sexy NA!! Love what his done!! Obligatory lunch group shots! Broke a few necks I think ;p Jamie? Why you photo bomb me all da time? Just some night pickies cruising on home! Have some video, and more pics, and more video on my action cam (fingers crossed it is good footage) and ill chuck some up later, also ill steal anything anyone else has and chuck a small music video together
Great day and great pics so far guys. It was good to get out again after a bit of an absence. Some faces i new and it was great to meet new people too. My Zed (Ellie) behaved well all day and we are both keen for another outing! Keep the pics and even the vids rolling
When you got it flaunt it, don't worry when you've removed that EGR your bay will be sexy enough to show off too
what you talkn' bout? a brand new EGR went in a few weeks ago, its shinny....which would attract you?
What a blast today was. What an awesome day!!! Great to be out and about with wonderful Zedders / enthusiasts. For everyone asking about the leather seats and details of where they were done, please refer to link here: http://www.aus300zx.com/forum/showthread.php?t=310512&highlight=leather+seats I hope everyone had a great time and a safe trip home tonight. Missed seeing some faces though. Chilly, DinoZ, Zoe, Ian ZX299. Mikey555. What happened to you guys? Peter
Great Day Out Great day out and a big thanks to all that came. Thanks to Ben and Mandy for scouting out lunch venues and organising our reservation at Goldfish (even though we did turn up an hour and a half late...). All in all I think it was a successful day although there are a few improvements we could make for any future cruises this size. Anyway a couple of pics from the meetup at maccas at Windsor. Prockyz bling Ben's immaculate NA -this really did look like a 2013 zed... One of the 370's that joined us Group shot at Tempus Two And very happy to have my car run flawlessly for the 400km round trip. I'm really hoping that the most recent tweaks are going to be it for a little while...
The steering wheel was... submitted to the local car upholstery trimmer who sent it to Adelaide to be done. This was about 5yrs ago and it cost $250. BUT.... I believe Manny might be able to do this also. Best to contact him because I am not 100% on this. My friend who owns a pristine Magna has a MOMO OEM Leather steering wheel. In sections it is RED but he wanted it all in BLACK. So gave it to Manny who said it was a piece of cake to do and will not fade back to red. It was died in black and when I saw it, it was absolutely perfect. I then wondered for anyone that retrims the steering wheel, myself included, will notice the leather is off-black. This is normal. I believe this can be stained to absolute black to match the centre of the steering wheel with the Z logo. Personally, will leave it as is because it matches the matt of my seats. But if it is an issue, then it can be stained. I reckon that's how the original Z steering wheel is done anyway. Because after 20yrs with wear and tear the die starts to come off or is scratched off accidently to expose the leather underneath. Manny is a perfectionist, I must say. Personally, I wouldn't go anywhere else. Oh, he also does roof liners if interested. And I don't work for Manny:zlove::zlove::br: Peter
Ha yeah I actually called him about getting some bucket seats done recently -didn't seem too keen on the work? Exact words "I don't have staff any more so because I have to do it myself it's going to cost more"... that said his pricing was still lineball with other quotes, but it sounds you may have gotten a rather exceptional deal with your interior...

Bugger Rob The GFC has impacted a lot of businesses and looks like Many has put off stuff. if you have the time go with Many. At least you know what you will get. Our seats area PITA to do compared to others. Due to their design. Also we did two cars in one go. Got a good deal. Peter
