What have you bought for your Zed this week?

[Stevo7682]

I got this to apply to my new wheels on the insides of the barrels when I get them.

I have a bottle of this Tony works well on paintwork.
Only thing is make sure whatever you are using it on is cold leaves streaks on warm panels

New thermostat last week, new thermostat housing this week. Seems the housing was the issue. Oh well hopefully back on the road tomorrow.

A dash mat, to save the leather from brutal Australian sun. It fits quite well...

Nissens radiator, RDS Radio Cassette, Beige Tonneau Cover + exhaust rubber bracket for the back box

Puncture repair at local Kwik Fit. Fortunately it was a slow leak and I noticed it before it was totally flat. Good news is that the jack works and I still have my old nearly worthless alloys with tyres still on so no need to leave the car jacked up while I got it sorted. Very lucky, as my car had the spare wheel bits ripped off at some point in the past.

Had Bilstein B12 suspension kit (Bilstein B8 shocks) fitted to my car last year; very good!

 

[elky]

New tires for some style 68 rims that I found and bought in the summer. Had to carry two wheels myself from the post office as they couldn't find me at home... barely fitted Also a few random stuff, i.e. a sport antenna and new grommet, some STP injector refresh and a plug for my manifold

 

[Palmetto]

New Mintex coated discs and pads, plus oil and filters. Service time.

 

[Jack Ratt]

Bought a set of 2 x power steering hose/lines from Martin @ZEDonist UK for my silver zed

 

[david.rice]

This weeks purchase:
Rear caliper overhaul kit
Pair of handbrake cables
Pair of rear beam bushes

All going towards the rear suspension overhaul... not fun working outside at this time of year! Wish I lived nearer the zshed!!!

 

[IanA]

Front shocks, which I've fitted and shortened the springs.
Front suspension kit- wishbones, wishbone support bushes in mountings, drop links and track rod ends - to be fitted by my MOT garage along with the new rear tyres that have been dark stored for a few months.

Not really gizmos or blink but...Inlet cam sensor, fitted it this morning, only had to remove the solenoid off the vanos to get at it, managed without removing anything else...and what a difference it makes...

Bought a Coupé so the Roadster has some company:

There's some work to do but I'm looking forward to it.

Are there any known suppliers for side skirts or will I have to order directly from BMW?

I splashed out the huge sum of £2.25, but only half of it was for my Z. The other half will go in the oil burner.
This was for 2 stick on clear plastic clips to put on the edge of you windscreen to hold parking tickets.

Some cars used to have these fitted but I can't remember the last one I had.

The last thing I bought for my Z this week was a set of gloss black valve caps. Hoping they would have arrived yesterday as they should. Anyway I'll fit them next Friday when we get home. Not chrome anymore but still shiny @andyglym so shouldn't lose any speed.
