Yep, I believe the genuine Nismo kits are fibreglass.

I'm amazed he got straight up after that (albeit with a limp!), looked pretty nasty.

I'm pretty sure genuine ones have a Nismo sticker somewhere on the inside. Not sure if this is still visible once it's been fitted though?

Fresh pairs of pants all round I think! It looked for all the world like that truck was going to take the front of his car off!

Xbox 360 & Kinect for me, new toys to play with!

I never really got on too well with fluid dynamics at uni, which is strange considering I now work in the water industry

Yeah repetition was always my thing too! For wordy stuff I'd write out concise notes as has been suggested and then keep going over them, covering them up and reciting all the key points and then glancing down to see if there was anything I'd forgotten. Read again, recite again and keep going until it's all in there! For anything technical I'd just keep doing as many examples from text books, past exam papers, etc. until I was happy I'd got it nailed. I don't envy you though, I loved my time at uni but I'm not sure I'd fancy doing it all again with all the coursework and exams!

He's probably contemplating having the crotch gold plated on those shorts.

How can he seriously look out the window at that and think to himself "looking pretty sweet"?

I hope you're going to do it properly and wear a helmet when playing too?

It's not uncommon to find mixed tyres front and rear, they're going to wear at different rates so plenty people end up just shopping for the best bang for the buck tyres for either the front or rear axle, not expecting it to make too much difference. I know before I joined this forum I'd not really though about it being a problem. On a slightly related note, I hear from people at work all the time "oh they're only tyres, I'll just get the cheapest ones around, it doesn't really matter". Those four bits of rubber are the only thing connecting you to the road though. Maybe it depends what you're driving, but I think it's worth paying a little more for some that will actually keep you there rather than in the nearest tree!

I've always had a bit of a soft spot for the Z4, and as mentioned above, the Z4M Coupe is a gorgeous looking car!

Maybe it's just because I've been doing my shopping and it's on my mind, but surely I can't be the only one who thought he was after someone to wrap his Christmas presents for him can I?

Yeah I remember watching this, as you say that guy was definitely the best bit, though I also liked the sideways lying down scenes they did at the end if that makes any sense? At least the first couple were funny anyway, they got a bit samey after that.

I've browsed to other forums before where it's asked if I want to view or learn more about Tapatalk and I always just cancel it and view it in normal mode. Maybe I should actually give it a try though if people think it's a good system. I think I've just got used to cancelling and ignoring anything that pops up in my browser and asks if I want to install something!

I'm kind of the same, I very rarely sit through ad breaks. I either go off and get a drink, go to the loo, etc. or else I start channel hopping! The missus adores the Coca Cola Christmas ad though with the truck, she still gets excited now every time it comes on!

I heard people saying there were going to be strong winds, but I didn't really think too much of it until I saw some clips on the news!

Unless its a performance centre. Alex f noble engineers seem very clued up True, I'm being unfair really, you get good and bad dealerships with any manufacturer and Nissan are no different.

Judging by some of the Nissan dealerships I've dealt with I wouldn't be surprised if they genuinely did try and fit a cambelt! If it's not a Micra they're stumped!

If Nissan did the replacement then I'd agree with Lexx, they should have a way of moving it onto what it should be. Sounds like they did half a job to me!

I've seen some pretty badly decked out cars in my time, including a 1.2 Corsa with 4, count 'em, 4 exhausts on the back that I kid you not literally filled the entire width of the car, they must have been 6" diameter each at least, but even so, I'd consider that tasteful in comparison to that monstrosity of a 350!

I always try and park as far away from anyone else as I can, though it's not always possible. I'll draw the line at taking up two bays though, I think you do just make yourself a bit of a target, particularly if it's a reasonably busy car park.

The pictures of it in the original AutoExpress link look fantastic, seriously good looking car.

It's about time, always thought Toyota were missing something recently, compared to cars of old the current MR2 and Celica just don't do it for me.

Wow, that's some serious damage, lucky nobody got more than minor injuries.
