  1. I have a set of steel wheel nuts that are unwanted and have never been fitted or used, wrong colour for me. They were bought from drift works and you can view their advert for these. There are 20 nuts M12x1.25 thread and overall length of 35mm it comes with its own socket because they are, spline drive. these were for my rotas. The colour from the photo is deceptive I would describe the blue as electric blue in the flesh not what I wanted. They cost me £38.48. including postage I am selling these for £26 including postage, 33% off what I paid.Happy with paypal (gift etc ) or bank transfer. :thumbs: Pm please if you want these.

  2. I went through 4 different suppliers and varieties over the past few years that all split even though they were advertised as large. I tried these guys in Nottingham a few months ago and at last I am very happy with mine for the driver side, if you are after one that fits neat and tight to the shape of your seat you will not find one any where. These are perfect for every day driving to protect your original seat and being a poser I remove mine for meetings showing the car off etc etc.

  3. Hi, as said above very soft paint, had my old Das 6 for over 4 years now, works as well as anything I've seen. The hardest bit is to get mops and pads with a compound you like, every one has their own preference. Detailing world have this guide still in use today if your new to the game well worth the read. One simple tip is to place a black mark on the top of your backing plate to see the pads movement. you'll see what I mean.

  4. VHB double sided or grip fill or other strong alternative! I have attached mine with VHB Velcro that way I can remove depending on circumstances initial test fit I used some 3m VHB doubled side tape and really struggled to get them back off!

     

    Here's your answer, as it says use VHB tape. Still stuck and hasn't moved for me. Just take your time getting them aligned correctly before the final push on. Very simple.

  5. If headlight washers are present then they must function to pass an MOT. If there are no headlight washers present to be tested, they cannot fail. They dont record which cars should/shouldnt have them :)

     

    Spot on :thumbs: Myheadlight washer was removed to fit a Vortech S/C no problems with the Mot last week.

  6. Had my extreme clutch and flywheel fitted yesterday, absolutely first class even my mechanic commented on the quality and ease of fitting, after his test drive he was talking about fitting one on his own scooby. I had a nice test drive over to S****horpe (dont know why its blocked out the towns name? LOL and back this morning and its clean and smooth with no gremlins, noise when changing gear etc under 1500 rpm is negligible and no where near as bad as you have been led to believe. As an interest to others who are asking about fitting costs mine came to £340 including new slave cylinder braided line etc. Not bad from an ex Nissan trained man.

    Grateful thanks to all at Clark Motorsports who yet again came up trumps with this kit. :thumbs:

  7. Hi guys, did mine last weekend with my boy and found with the previous very welcomed info from Chris it was fairly easy. It was a nice clear view when the inner wheel liner was removed so the drain pipe and dipstick were exposed and with a little negotiation with the dipstick i.e. if you don't struggle and fight too much I wont break and bend you too much it came out with a little wiggle and witchcraft.The only difference I did was to use a small funnel that allowed me to pour the full amount in one go from the bottle into the dipstick opening that took a few minutes to fill up. No problems at all, like most jobs like my boy said the next time probably 30 mins with us both working together. Cheers Chris

  8. Just spoke to my garage who have fitted the extreme clutch and light weight flywheel today and he is very impressed with this set up, however mine is for the 350z. Picking it up tomorrow for its first run but from previous conversations on here they are very favourable with this Australian kit. My mechanic, a Nissan trained man was very pleasantly surprised with this set up and the ease that it was to fit it.

  9. The way to do it is described by GIXXERUK above. I always carry a microfibre cloth in the boot with a bottle of detailing spray if I leave the car for only a short time, If its dry you need to soak the crap later, sometimes I put warm wet kitchen paper on it it to soften it before washing it off. All sounds a bit surreal really but you can see the top lacquer being degraded in a day or two if you do not take action.
