looks great! :tup: hey you prima huh? cool. :tup: about the pressure washer.... it can wash off your wax/sealant. i dont use high pressure when washing my cars. just a fireman's nozzle and use water hose pressure.

when i rinse i dont spray and use the gushing mode to let the water sheet off. :)

GL with your basement drywalling. :tup:

Thank you guys!!! I just took a glance and a pic to show you guys cos I had to run more errands.

I am very happy on both. The spacers are nicely fitted, could do 15 if really want to push it but I think 10 is my liking.

The spoiler is another nice piece. The bodyshop tech was amazed by its color-match because of the PW layers paint.

Overall…… :tup: :tup: :tup:

Now………… mmm……… what's next on the list………… :roflpuke2:

Yeah, I just used the pressure washer and some Adams soap in the foamer. The coat of Power Lock was still sheeting/beading like crazy. I applied it during my winter storage prep. After I foamed it I let it sit, then did a quick 2 bucket wash. Finally I rinsed everything using my hose with fireman nozzle attachment. Just like you said, gushing. Worked like a charm :tup:

As for the drywall. I have it all put up, the spare bedroom is just about ready for primer and paint, then I still have to tape and mud the entertainment room. I'm almost done :icon14:

mr.alcheng - yah take more picts. :D the 10mm looks perfect. it's a clean fit. :tup: yah, that paint match does loook great! :tup:

mr.gale- sounds like you knowz wat you're doing so that's :tup:

so for priming your drywall are you going to use a sprayer or roller? :)

Hey guys. Hows it going? Kenman know all about getting upset with others. I was pi$$ed this morning. Mine is at bosses that don't support their employees. After putting in back to back 14 hour nights all I hear is how we can do more faster. $crew them eh? Sorry like I said I was upset. :shakes head: Decided this morning to step back and just be a worker drone and let somebody else take my spot as charge.

Got a package from Z1 waiting for me at home :)

Thanks! :tiphat:

I would love to spray the primer but I have all the equipment for rolling, so rolling wins. Plus I'm not taking any money away from the mod fund by buying a sprayer... Although I could really use one to stain the fence.... Hmmm.

Yes, the angry boss routine doesn't always get the desired results, hence rapid turnover where I was working. All the talented people say "screw this" and move on to better jobs. Hope things calm down for you Mr.Fire. :hello:

Mr.kenchan, I will try to do a brief photo shoot on Fri morning… looks like the weather is going to be nice for the weekend. :tup:

Mr.Fire, sounds like you had a rough shift at work. :icon14: Sometimes we gotta stand back a bit otherwise we all become knob&nuts!! LOL :icon17:

Fire- sorry to hear. :( i hate managers like that... they need to show appreciation and compassion...that is motivation. money will make people happier, but then people get use to having money so without appreciation they still quit.

think of all the people and property you saved, fire! :tup:

niceee~! wat did you order this time? :yum:

does your hardware store loan out sprayers? might want to look into that. :D i suppose it might be better to use rollers from ventilation perspective.. not sure how many windows you have. my house has an english basement so it's like half-arsed :icon17: (windows above ground).


looking forward to your picts, mr.alcheng! your car's looking great. :tup:

so tonight i found out my wife's not using the Fit tomorrow (and i need to run 2 errands) so going to use that to go to work. that means my G's off until next Monday so i cleaned her up real nice. speedshine, window cleaner, slicked the wheels, and dressed the tires, leather care'ed the seats, etc. :yum:

so while i was cleaning the G and using the Fit tomorrow got me thinking... uh oh.. nono. :icon17: i should maybe get a AT beater(?)... this way my wife can also use it if something happens to the Fit. smart move, ey? :confused:

GaleForce: Nice! :tup:

Mr.kenchan, maybe you could teach Mrs MT??? ;)

Hey that looks great man! :tup:What kind of washer/foam gun did you get?

Hey Alcheng! Your cars looking hot! Love the spoiler and what the spacers did for the wheels! :tup:

mr.alcheng - about 10yrs ago i tried.... she tried too. we practiced on my dd civic at the time over and over. she was getting the hang of it. actually that protege5 i spoke about earlier... i bought it for her. it was a 5MT brand new all paid for. but she just could not wing it. lol :icon17: it's because she wears a lot of different shoes with all sorts of heels and too lazy to change shoes each time she drove.

so after about 2months she gave up.. so i gave her my then 3yr old modded G20 which was AT. and i sold the protege5 for the MINI cause it was too damn slow :icon17:

she is absolutely no longer interested in driving MT. hahahahaha.

Red z1 silicon hoses (PCV and Brake Booster) to add a personal touch to the engine bay. Also got some Redline Differential oil.

Exhaust update got a few more bolts/knuts off, just one left! I think this knut is stripped though. I'll try a 12 point socket tomorrow. hosed it down with pb blaster and will see what happens.

Thanks! :tiphat:

Thanks Happy!

I bought this pressure washer Simoniz 2000 PSI Electric Pressure Washer | Canadian Tire ignore the price, I bought it at 50% off, you never buy anything from Canadian Tire at full price, it will be heavily discounted in the future, just need to watch the sales.

I bought a cheap foamer from Home Depot. It worked really well, but I could use a slightly bigger reservoir. Homelite | G-Clean Detergent Foamer | Home Depot Canada it's worth the $20.

:tup:

Once you get that thing off, you should crank it and go for a spin without the CBE and see what you think! :tup:

I had to log some more data for Sam @ GTM so he can dial in my car's tune.:happydance:

I bought a new laptop this weekend so I could data log more easily. Dell XPS 14z. :tup:

Mr.kenchan, sometimes I am a little :confused: too when I see women driving with their heels on... some of them wears like 3-4 inches heel and shuttle through traffic... LOL

Mr.GaleForce, congrats on the PressureWasher :tup: :tup:

Mr.ZMan8, Good Luck!! ;)


I have done so far what I want to be done to my Z, ClearBra, CAI, Tires/Rims, Spacers, Spoiler and HU. Maybe some redline products later on and I am thinking about going to upgrade the brakes when the OEM is done... ;)

Famous last words! :icon18:

Fixed

Dang..... late night gramma..... :icon18:

:tup: I heard its crazy loud (but raspy)

:tup: very nice. That is just for data logging??

Give us your reviews of it. I think the Z series are the thin ones right?

Data logging... and porn. :bowrofl:

It's really for everything. For me, I really only need it for data logging and maybe some work if I don't feel like sitting at my desk. I'll also use it for viewing GoPro footage and doing some light editing (like when I'm at ZDayZ this May). My girlfriend uses it for work and school as well.

The 14z is the thin and light one. Not as thin as the XPS 13 ultrabook (which I want) but more powerful and practical. I didn't get the souped up one. The specs are:

Core i5-2450M - 2.5/3.1 Ghz, 3MB cache
8GB DDR3
750GB 7500RPM HDD
Intel HD 3000 onboard gfx

Its pretty quick and does everything I need it to do. Looks real nice too. Compact and fairly light (under 5lbs). Got it for $899.

P.S. -- Good Morning, Misters

P.S.S. -- Fantastic tire! :p

Good morning all. Hope you have a great Thursday... Long weekend! Woohoo!

Hi guys. Sorry for the rant yesterday. Appreciate the words of encouragement :ugh2: Kenman the issues are at the hospital not with the fire department. We have a great chief at the fire department and it is very easy being an assistant chief with him. As for my Z I have an appointment at 1030 am today. Just regular service have just under 4000 miles on the car. :eekdance:

Congrats to everybody with new parts and mods. :ughdance: On my ZL1 front there may actually be light at the end of the tunnel. A guy posted that he is receiving his ZL1 today. He is the first to post that he is receiving his. So things are looking up and I expect to get news on where I stand in the next week. :ugh2:

Hopefully you get yours sooner than you expect! :tup:

Oh man m4 looks like you put your finger where it shouldn't be LOL. I'm thinking at least 6 weeks from order acceptance to receiving it. NO chance for ZDayZ. :shakes head:

:(

Good monring, everyone.

P.S.S. ?!?!?!?!? Uh oh. I feel something coming over me.

Is it notebook envy onze?:confused:

:icon17:

I need to hurry up and get them on the S2000, but I'm in the process of having a ring made so the bank account is a little shocked. ;)

Who's the lucky guy m4? LOL j/k I'm off to get my car seviced will be on later. :icon18:
