  1. Sorry to rub lemon juice into your paper cut, but didn't you check the insurance before you bought it?? It is a powerful sports GT afterall. It is a shame, but insurance is high for a reason sometimes. You sound like a young guy, your time will come. Build that no claims and driving skills first, then you'll enjoy these cars all the more. There are alot of cars out there with low insurance that are alot of fun too. Bradders.
  2. Update -Popped a set of 452s on all-round. Very pleased with price. They were a bit slipping to start with. Release stuff I assume. Think they are going to be great. Much less jarring than Bridgestones over bumps and more feel back through wheel. Going back next week for a full laser alignment. Missus would't let me do doughnuts to finish off the Bridgestones Bradders.
  3. Great read Very useful to read to opinion of a person who clearly knows their onions Bradders.
  4. I was a bit more interested in the Pole Dancing fail next to it Bradders
  5. PM R35LEE he may able to advise. He's a busy chap though so may take a while to get back to you. He did a very good install for me into my tape circuit, and have never had any probs. Bradders.
  6. A 313?? Since when did the Rev Up have no bonnet bulge? The engines were 276 on an 52 no? Surely a Nismo has a bodykit?? This is a clearly is Nismo Special Edition. If Nismo Special Edition means ripping the Fairlady badge off a JDM and slapping a Nismo badge on. I have a collander in the kitchen with less holes Bradders.
  7. Thanks guys for responding so quickly, much appreciated. What a forum!! I've told my tyre guy to get me a price for the 452 instead now. If he can't do 'em I'll get Camskill to deliver 'em. Wanted him to do them as he was gonna do me a good price on a laser alignment. Anyway just got the missus a new Blackberry, so maybe I'll have accrued enough brownie points to get some Vreds Sessantas Cheers, Bradders.
  8. Very quick answer needed guys as i have to order today for the weekend. My tyre guy can only get me Falken ZE 912 and not Falken FK 452s. Are these going to be ok for the Z? Thanks Braddfers
  9. Try Camskill. Vreds might be outside your budget, but you might scrape £400 for Falken or Toyos. Bradders.
  10. I'm coming away from Chris Knott now I'm afraid. They had to give me a hefty jump, even though I have had no change to circumstance ie no shunts, no tickets etc. I've went through confused.com and got a quote with Admiral for less tham I'm paying currently. Would recommend the multi-car as that has dropped both mine and the missus Suzuki Sport considerably. Confused.com is always good for a laugh too. Guess what my highest quote was?? Bradders.
  11. First time I've heard a negative on a snow foam. What was the matter with it?? If it really is that poor I won't bother. Sorry for highjack. Bradders.
  12. Let me think.. 2 bucket with grit guard Meg Synthetic shammy Meg Lamb's wool mitt Zymol shampoo Meg Clay bars Dodo Juice Prime Lime Dodo Supernatural Dodo Tropical Mist Envy brushes Meg Hot wheels Autoglym Interior cleaner stuff(quite good on engine bay too) Autosol for exhaust. Be getting a Snow foam lance, once I do some work on the kitchen I promised the missus Think that's it. Bradders
  13. Rich Where are the pics mate?? Being a techie chap, you must have the alignment specs for the Z?? Searched all night on forum , no luck Ace sig btw! Bradders
  14. Everyone has the blue Seamaster Well everyone who has an Omega it seems. I'd go with the Ocean if you want to be a little different. The Speedmaster is nice too, but the glass is very soft and can't take knocks too well. Get the black and don't go for the quartz. The Automatics aren't much more and you don't have to crack them open, only when they are serviced. Omegas much nicer than a Breitling too; they are a bit showy IMHO. Bradders.
  15. Think that has made my mind up then I've been quoted mate's rates for £60 for a laser one, which seems good. Thanks guys Bradders.
  16. Gonna get a new set of Falken 452 fitted in a week or so. Worth getting an alignment done at the same time? I'm a bit of a newb to this sort of thing as you know, so just want a gentle, Husky, opinion I'm assuming there is a recommended setup here. Saw one recently so I'll have a search, if you guys reckon its worth it. Bradders
  17. GT comes with cruise control, leather seat, brembos and uprated BOSE. All UK cars have brembo's, its not part of the GT pack. I would get a P3 done even if they dont do it. All they'll do is change the oil. pfft Beat me too it on the Brembos. Non-GT is not to be underrated. Cloth don't throw you about in the corners like skidding leather And Cruise Control. Please! Don't get me started. If you want a motorway car, buy a Merc Bradders.
  18. Fairly straightforward a premicell connection. I'm assuming you are going to run a switch off the back of it. Might be best looking at a Lake Versatilty(nice and cheap those). Versatility uses 2 wire voice and analogue handsets, which would be suitable for that kind of environment. Comes with Voicemail module too if you want to use it locally on the switch, so the Message waiting light can be lit etc. I'm off from work next week but if you PM I can have a chat with a supplier and see if they can help, as I use them for bespoke stuff like this. I did one on a engineering train, for a BCM50, a few years back. Bradders
  19. This is terrible news, I'm truly shocked by this. Be careful out there guys, I never want to hear news similar here again . My sincere condolences to Ian's family and friends at this awful time. Bradders
  20. How often do you "laugh out loud" when you are posting on a thread. All the time when Husky is involved
  21. Totally agree with Husky on this. I've been in Sales 15 years now, 7 in a technical consultative role. Car Sales is generally acknowledged as very high pressure from the Sales Managers, though that may depend on the sales unit. I considered it at one point. What I might suggest is approach a garage for weekend work to give you a flavour of it and keep your current job. They generally need more guys over the weekends. Even for only a month. Then you can always drop it if you hate it. Always the danger of hating cars as well on the back on it. I know I hate what I sell ;-) Sales is a rollercoaster. I'll make you feel like a your on top of the world and then make you wanna jack it in and become a road sweeper. No middle ground. PM me if you want and I'll happy have a chat with you on it if that helps any. Bradders.
  22. Not for the Sat nav, as non Sat nav cars have them. Generally thoughts are that its the microphone for phone or the aerial for it. I'm thinking most likely microphone. Mine has fallen off windscreen and swings free. Had the car 9 months and not fixed it. I'm so lazy Bradders.
