  1. Famous last words, and of course we're not a bad influence. Yup, my mate and I were washing our Zeds when I caught him saying "I need a new front bumper..."
  2. Hehe, yeah, it's like bragging rights in the US if you can say "I can drive stick..."
  3. Yeah, nice, keep us posted about what Hangar 111 have to say.
  4. So basically, it's a load of cobblers then, thanks martin
  5. May have been me rtbiscuit, if you can confirm a chinese with a big grin behind the wheel, lol My mate is gonna give Nissan in Bury St.Edmunds a try. He too lives in Ipswich and has the dreaded axle clicking prob. After calling Glyn Hopkins Ipswich, they gave him the "Oh, really....never heard of that....lemme check..." bullshit. He then phoned up Nissan Bury St.Edmunds (he works in Bury) and they said "Yeah, we've had one in before and we know what to do" and seemed more helpful in general. I'll see how he gets on with them and might even consider using them myself for servicing if all goes well.
  6. It seems quite believable, especially when people were watching "Gone In Sixty Seconds", (the Nicholas Cage version) But I'm sure that since then, technology has advanced quite abit. I have a Clifford CAT1 alarm on my Honda that was installed 7 years ago, and with every press of the button it changes the frequency it transmits (Clifford called "Anti-Grabbing Technology). I'm pretty sure that nowadays, this sort of tech should be the norm, but of course I can be wrong.
  7. Well, if Nissan fit it, it would be better for re-sale rather than having a non Nissan garage install an engine of unknown origin, whether low mileage or not
  8. I resign myself to praying alot....
  9. I think Jay should redo the whole lot in House Of Kolor Brandy Red...
  10. Well, I had your best interests in mind....hehe
  11. Just done the counterweight removal thing and it's deffo made a difference, my car has ceased to try and eat me. But I'll keep my interest for those replacement struts in the future, possibly get a set after the summer.
  12. If your really bored Jay, smooth the covers over nd then paint them with a carbon fibre effect, lol
  13. Pity you cannot modify the voice itself, imagine the possibilities. Mr.T voice "Who you wanna call, fool?"
  14. From what I know, the lights are like that so you don't shine your light into oncoming drivers faces and blind them.
  15. ...and nobody mentions the great ass @ 47secs?
  16. Sadly it doesn't have any effect on me, because I'm actually fluent in german (grew up over there) and can actually understand why Hitler is loosing his rag (something about the eastern front, wishing death to Stalin and wanting his enemies to die chocking on their own blood and such)
  17. Just had a nice phoneconvo with Lee. Thanks all involved, I can see being a Zed driver definately has it's benefits. I'm loving these forums and the community even more now.
  18. Thanks. I still got a machine with a AthlonXP 3200+ Barton core, mostly for archiving tho. For anybody that's interested, my buildlog for my watercooled system can be found here: http://www.watercoolinguk.co.uk/forums/ ... php?t=3697
  19. Thanks Stew, just fired off a PM to R35LEE, see what happens, if non fruitful, I'll try ZMANALEX *edit* Damn, gotta get used to people posting as fast as they drive their Zeds..... Cheers for the reply ZMANALEX
  20. rtbiscuit...I'm from Ipswich too, lol I was gonna use Lorven Performance Services in Martlesham, but it seems they closed shop and moved, but I dunno if they ceased altogether or not. They were good imo, cos they did do the Tein Suspension on my Honda Prelude. They used to share the workshop with Hangar 11, the Lotus Specialist.
  21. wow, that's like the fastest reply ever!!! I take it they are forum members. So do I just PM them or wait for them to see the thread?
  22. I done a window reset on my Zed, but since it was my first time taking anything off the car, I had a little accident. I managed to snap off a little bit from the door trim that holds the little speaker (see red circle in below pic, snapped off the bit that goes into the rubber bit). Does anybody have a second hand one? Or know where to get a new one from? Thanks
  23. You'll just have to learn how to park like this then....lol http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=WuYov0ghyMQ
  24. I use Meguiars Gold Class Rich Leather Cleaner/Conditioner on all leather surfaces in my Zed
  25. too true, it pisses me off tho that people try this kinda stuff over and over again.
