Dean's Zed =]

Recommended Posts

Hiya everyone, I have been on here a while now and introduced myself but haven't got round to doing this yet so here it is.

My name is Dean I'm 25 and live in a town called Irthlingborough in Northants.

I have owned my zed for nearly 2 months now and am loving it, I thought about getting one for a long time and kept looking and when this one came up for sale on here I arranged with phil to go down to Taunton too have a look. It was just what I was looking for =]

This was phil's (Broomers-zed) and he had already done some modifications which include:

Tinted windows

Rear wiper removed

Miltek exhaust system

Decat pipes

Removed rear badges

She is a gt model and has done just over 62000 miles and is in very good condition.

Here she is after a wash.

I have done a few jobs so far to tidy her up which included spraying the wiper arms as one was badly corroded, new sidelight bulbs, my favourite so far is removing the front plate holder I think it gives a much tidier finish.

After

I have started to use the clay bar as the paint was a bit rough to touch and that has made a massive difference. It's a long job but definitely worth the effort.

Also I brought a set of rays the other week with tyres but just need to get them refurbished before putting them on. And will be sorting out a stubby aerial soon of course =]

I hope I will be able to get to some meetings with the car and meet some of you

Thanks for looking

Dean

That's cool Dean and good to see Phils old Zed in good hands by the sounds of it.

 

Chatted with him a fair bit in his build thread and he was a sound guy. Link here in case you hadn't read it yet; http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/73426-broomers-zoe-the-zed/

 

Hope you enjoy the Zed and have fun making it your own. :thumbs:

Done a couple of things to the zed this weekend, fitted a pioneer avh-x3500dab head unit with help from my brother and the super guide on this forum very helpful. Looks a lot better than the standard and now can play CDs without it skipping hah

And also thanks to tarmac sportz for supplying and quick delivery. fitted the new stubby aerial also much better I think =]

Still lots to be done especially after having a look on the tarmac sportz website haha.

Here's some pics.
