  1. Not wishing to be rude about your product but the cut out for the bonnet latch looks a bit rough. Looks a bit like it was cut by hand with a stanley knife. Same with the little cut out notch for the bonnet arm clip thingy. It could just be the photo's or it could even just be me, not sure . Other than that they look great and a really good price too
  2. Exhaust and JWT won't give you any extra power without an ECU tune but the spacer should give you some extra mid range torque without a tune. Abbey or RS Tuning in Leeds are your best bet for ecu tuning. Not sure on abbey prices but I think RS are doing it for £400 +VAT
  3. Thats why i am keeping the rays m8...for 888s!! these ones were ordered with ps2s...should have them fitted by the end of the week! Don't think you can get the 888's in the correct size for the Rays.
  4. Can I have first dibs on the MREV2 and the spacer please?
  5. It doesn't have an 'esp on' light, so if there's no light, it's on so it sounds like yours is working correctly.
  6. Wow, quite a transformation. Love the rear bumper with the diffuser . Those arches look MASSIVE! The standard arches aren't exactly small, but those are beasts
  7. To be fair, I don't think the Bridgestone are actually a bad tyre, they are just not suited to every day driving in this climate. They are probably much better for track days in dry conditions as they perform much better with some heat in them. I have T1R's on they are much more suitable for everyday road driving, especially in the wet. The back end used to be much more twitchy in the wet with the Bridgestones. So I think it's a case of horses for courses. Slicks give the best grip but would be horrendous on the road and in the wet, doesn't mean they are a bad tyre, just that they need the right conditions to perform.
  8. As much as I love Jap cars, £125k for a Nissan is crazy talk. You'd have to be a serious window licker to get one of these
  9. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/EDITORIAL/CARS/news/nissan_gtr_specv_for_sale_at_125k.html Coming to showroom near you! Not exactly a bargain
  10. Like the sound of the cooling panel. Any idea on cost?

    PLETHORE

    That air intake on the side is enormous! Looks like a supercar mongrel. Lots of different cars melded together
  12. Sounds like a good idea! Where's the best place to get some?
  13. You could always fit mirrors to the other side of your car so people see the reflection of the wheels and they look the right way round!
  14. How the hell do some of those cars get round corners? Some of them look so low that I don't see how the wheels can turn under the arches . Really don't like the stretched tyre look, just looks like they've fitted the wrong sized tyres Love the beetle though
  15. Yeah, thought I might as well get them done while under warranty. Just hope these don't start bubbling
  16. I thought about it but noone can see all 4 wheels at the same time!!!! Fair enough, they're not to my taste but as long as you're happy with them
  17. Went to Westway Nissan Stockport a few months ago to make a warranty claim for two alloys which had the dreaded bubbling (only very small amount but it was there). Took a longer than I expected and had to chase them up a few times (so nothing unusual there) but I ended up getting all 4 alloys replaced! I have noticed that they don't have the blue dots on them so I assume they must be refurbs. This doesn't really bother me as two of the wheels they replaced didn't have any corrosion and I had kerbed them a bit, so can't really complain. Overall a bit of a result!
  18. I don't think they swap the direction of the blades for the opposite side of the car so the left side will point in a different direction to the right side of the car. Not necessarily a problem, just need to be aware of it.
  19. I suppose it was only a matter of time http://www.autotrader.co.uk/EDITORIAL/CARS/news/NISSAN/OTHER/nissan_gtr_is_a_wrap_star.html WARNING: This may hurt your eyes and make you feel wrong.
  20. It will be interesting to see what happens to residuals after a year or so when people start seeing stories like this. I think the cost of maintaining and repairing one of these far outweighs the relatively cheap price tag of the car itself.
  21. Think I'm gonna have to start hanging around in car parks more often
  22. Good luck selling an '03 for £20k Does have nice seats though
  23. Got my pedal today and just fitted it. A great little mod, highly recommended. Thanks for organising this
