  1. That's the Market they are going for though. It's a good investment. You sped 7k on royale you can bow charge whatever you want for a detail. You will most likely only do cars worth more than £100k. So you know the people have the money if you use supernatural your not going to get the ballers knocking on your door though are you. You are passing the charge on and people always think you get what you pay for. Davekg did a test showing your vert expensive waxes no better than collonite. But on his jobs he still uses a more expensive wax. Why because collinate is cheap so people think it's rubbish. Also you use a higher wax you can charge more. It's also a boasting thing.

    Don't think he has been back on.
  3. Because you can usually get free refills and your passing this expense onto the customer. It also gives you an air of prestige.
  4. Dont know why autos get hate. I will probably never buy a manual car again ever.
  5. I'd email them to double check the flexi's ate covered in the warranty. If not I'd go for the stillen.
  6. Surely if you needed to use that you would get a faster lens or a FF camera.
  7. 1000d or old 400d or 40d with kit lens and a niddy fiddy. Im not sure on Nikon numbers and lenses. If she isnt getting good low light performance a Dslr with a cropped sensor will be much better than a bridge and with a lens like the 50mm @f1.8 you will get decent low light shots.
  8. The one with the bearded ninja
  9. all that for about £3500
  10. Congrats
  11. Means buy a pc
  12. Well really you need to do alot more than 10 journeys. How long is the trip? wind speed has alot to do with it, other cars and so on. Also you should try trips where acceleration is required e.g. town driving or stop start. Im not sure about everyone else's car but if im tootling around the zed seems to get slower. When I floor it take a a few runs for it gain power. Im sure Abbey and Rstuning find the same on the dyno.

    Well atleast you have had the decency to not say anything. If I slag your car and you mine it's ok I don't really mind but it's no way of welcoming someone especially when you have put time and money in. If they like it you can IMO politely say you don't like it. What's the need in coming across like a prat? IMO one of the best things about the 350 is the usually freindly forum. Shame there is so many sheep on here.

    If it's not your cup of tea why bother insulting this guy? You wouldn't do it to his face as he would probably kick you teeth in. Get a grip of yourself thinking your god gifts to modders in your old nissans. If it's not the way that you want it, it's horrible and because your behind a keyboard it makes you hard? If this was someone who has been around for a while fine it's banter but this guy is new so potentially you've made him think we are all a set of prats. After your comments you really think he is going to want to come to meets? You might feel the big man now but your just a tw *t.

    ouch :(

    Doesn't seem like much damage for 160mph?

    If it's coming out in the US it will be a hit there 100%.
  18. Can you not just drain it from the drain plug and refil it with a pump that fits on the bottle and a plastic tube.
  19. Yeah no problem Il do it when I'm on the pc
  20. Ok so lets say the under strut box gives you 0.7cuft before displacemnt Id go for a 10" sub if I was you. Id try car audio direct or the classifieds on TA.
  21. Space isnt really an issue , still not convinced by those flat subs after looking up the specs and prices even the cheapest on those choices looks like it outperforms it, space isnt really an issue id rather have a bit more power Space isnt too big of a deal since i dont ever need to put shopping ect in there just the odd jacket lol , Id like to keep it hidden to people looking in , i.e behind the rear strut unless u can get a cover or something. Budget is £300 including Amp , Iv already got a Fli Loaded 1000M amp here i can use though depends on size of sub if it will fit in the car as its rather large. Id like it to go either side of the strut , preferable behind it so not visible to thief's , I listen mainly to HipHop and Grime and like my deep low bass Well I have the understrut sub box and empty its 0.7cuft. Ive seen bigger ones that you can get 2cuft. So its 500wrms @ 2ohm your amp that is. So You have the choice of a small under strut box being sealed as it will drop low with a 10" sub. Because you havent got that much power a more effcient sub like a Id Max would be good for you IMO. You could get something like what ive got a Fi Q but that can take 1000wrms but Im giving it 1200wrms @ 1ohm. Or you could get a big box made that would fit under the strut but would take more of the boot up and have it port tuned to about 33hz. My last sub was a RE XXX v3 15" in a 4cuft box port tuned to 32hz and it was awesome with the lows. It was very clear to but I was running 1600wrms. So you could maybe get sub that needs about 2cuft ported and that could work for you. Do you perfer vented or ported?
  22. budget, what amp, what size, where you putting it, what music do you listen to?
  23. What year is your car?

    I've just personally found when they try to make the diesels to powerful most of the economy is lost and they seem to chew through expensive parts. They don't happen to everyone though. You have to be doing a lot of miles to make a diesel make sense. So even with a car that *might* cost you good money to fix as long as your doing enough miles to offset that cost your ok. Yeah definately. I do about 25k a year atm (down from 40k a year a few years back), so for me last time I worked the numbers out diesel would save me a good few quid. Last 2 diesels ive had i did 80k on each of them with no major problems at all save normal wear / tear. The engines still ran perfect, one of them was at 165k miles on the original clutch / turbo etc.
