  1. So far I've had nothing but a great experience dealing with people off these forums.

     

    That sounds a bit ominous :lol:

     

    Have you been talking to my friend from Sweden ? :lol:

     

    Well, you know...Sweden...it gets cold up there.....brainfreezes are likely to happen....

     

    No harm intended with that comment btw...

  2. Great thanks goes out to ZMANALEX, he's orted me out with the spare part I need and it should (fingers crossed) arrive tomorrow.

    Thanks to all :thumbs:

  3. I undid all the clips anf bolts that hold the original airstuff down, then didn't realize that there are two prongs on the bottom of the original airbox.

    I pulled it up and saw there was only a tiny tiny bit and it would be free, so I pulled it a little higher to clear and that's when I heard the "snap"....

  4. I did notice on my routine drive from work home, that a particular straight section was covered in a much shorter time than usual.

    This was at 4am with no other traffic and when I noticed that the straight section was ending sooner than usual I glanced at my speedo, only to find that it was showing 150!!!

  5. Received the InvoAuto induction kit sold to me by sunset350z on Saturday.

    Got carded by Royal Mail and picked it up on Monday, but due to adverse weather I only got around to fitting it now (after a 12 hour night shift no less :D )

    But I made a little ****-up while removing the original airbox and damaged the tubing that holds the mass air sensor...

    Does anybody know whether Nissan charge a small fortune for this part or can either ZMANALEX or R35LEE help me out?

     

    Thanks,

  6. I reckon that's nurrish's secret batcave....

     

    Make sure you end up painting the whole wheel rather than just the faces, and I do mean taking off the tyres and spraying them complete.

    Reason is that it makes a complete coat and reduces the chances of peeling, flaking or bubbeling, because there is no edge for for anything to get under.

     

    My bro has a set of PVM wheels for his CBR600, which are powdercoated black, but on one of the edges (the surface that faces the hub when mounting) had chipped a little, but the knock on effect was that the powder coat damage got more and more. Harris UK thankfully replaced the wheels with a new set free of charge, because the manager took a look at them and instantly said that the powdercoat looked off. PVMs are made to order and hence the £1000 pricetag per pair.

     

    But other than that, it's looking good.

  7. also remember that a 5 day transfer means working days only, so can actually take longer if weekends are involved.

     

    In the end, just keep a cool head, unfortunately the whole world ain't a Burger King and we won't always have it our way...
