  1. As far as I know the only one - hope you like it if not Mrs Keyser does
  2. It's about a rizzla paper . . Believe me I have sen it He has lowered it since then mate
  3. I have a pair of hammered wheels - no tyres but they are from a Zed - what size do you need?
  4. Will do mate Did someone accuse you of being fussy - don't belive that
  5. I'll have a look I defo have 1 VVT not sure if I have both - would you like them powder coated in Candy Purple? I also have a timing cover - will need to check its condition though - also could be candy purple as could the plenum
  6. You can't post that in public - you have to pay tax on fuel you know
  7. So been trying a few more things with the P C Buster had a go ] His Chipped NISMO gear knob re done looks good I tried some more colours Lovely candy purple that someone may like Pile is getting bigger I have a spare one of these so I had a practice Sand blasted but sanded out some of the the casting marks Masked up Unfortunately I B****d up the clear coat - not happy with the finish - but that's why we practice So while I was cleaning that back to off again hard to get back off I can tell ya! I put some more through the process Think this is going to be LOUD underneath as well More to come
  8. Do you use a lot of oil and lubricant at night Ian? I am definitely getting back in my cupboard.... Ian can measure his oil consuption in MPG's
  9. Yes as long as its a small something
  10. As rodgeevans said In theory yes any colour - but some colours are more expensive, you can get any colour on the RAL chart - but again its finding a supplier a lot do a minimum order of 50KG and at £10 - £25 a KG that's expensive. You can also have a colour match service in 5 days but it's actually cheaper to re-spray the car to match the powder coat But for engine Bling and stuff like that its fine and a lot of off the shelf colours like blue, green, red etc along with additives like metal fleck and laquer. Experiments will be conducted shortly.
  11. That would be if we got any weather when I could actually drive them instead of just look at them
  12. Lime Green or Gloss Black or I agree with glrnet Blue would work
  13. You get to do your Nismo gear knob mate Sorry couldn't wait any longer
  14. Here ya go http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/69036-keyser-tries-powder-coating-pic-heavy/
  15. Hi all and welcome along - Today we are going to try DIY Powder Coating I'm sure you have seen the thread on the refurb of ZeeAnnex http://www.350z-uk.c...hed-15th-march/ Well now that is complete I have the space to have a go. I have become an "internet expert" by watching the videos, reading up on the different forums and talking to anyone that has had experience with powder coating and of course it doesn't mean that much until you have a go. The basics you need are a Powder Coating system, a good way to clean the items and something to heat and cure the coating. So I got the system Then after much scanning of the free adds, gumtree etc I got an oven But you know me - Think Bigger Me and Buster are busy on the Mk 2 homemade oven big enough to take a 20" wheel Then I built a booth made a swivel hook at the top that connects to the negative side of the powder coater I then picked a few parts to "practice" on, first stop the "Blast Chamber" (which is awesome well lit and plenty of space) Had some gunk left to clean off After blasting Bottom bar has been wire wheeled as well Next as they were in poor condition I pre heated everything which allows for out gassing, then I turned on the machine and powder coated them all - stuck them in the oven and watched very carefully When they gloss over I left them in a further 10 minutes to cure (as per coating instructions) then out they came and onto the cooling rack The finish - not bad for a first attempt :~) A Mini brake drum backing plate A bracket Suspension parts in ORANGE And the booth after its first run Hope to get quite good at this while I do all the suspension for the Mini All comments welcome.
  16. Sorry guys - it always takes longer than you think to get some stuff sorted - and I wanted to do it before I told anyone what it was! One correct guess Well done that man Thread as soon as I type it up
  17. He's back and his Zeditis is still playing up! So in the ZedShed today - That's the 5th time I've sprayed that V2 for him
