  1. They managed to get 40,000bhp out the zed and timewarped into the past where there is no internet
  2. hahaha that is wicked. My dog is too cocky for that. It knows as soon as you get a dog treat it has to sit, and just drags its bum accross the floor following you, ignoring you telling it to get up i blame the dog its probably just me

    Roof wrap

    just a thought, have you seen a 350z with carbon or matt roof? Im not a big fan of it, i like the panoramic roof look, but its worth trying to see one before you do it.

    pm rtbiscuit, i just go via him
  5. The one in the middle has the legs of a bloke
  6. Answer is, broken exhaust does rffect mpg. Changed exhaust and getting better mpg. The trip computer was lying when it said 26mpg, as now it says 26 and actually lasts. New exhaust (2nd hand oem) sounds more of muscle car engine but getting my bhp back so im happy
  7. +1 incase ur lazy like me and forget to put anti freeze in the window washer fluid. Bottle of water over the windscreen and clears the journey up. Otherwise youll be sticking behind a lorry letting slush wash ur windows.
  8. Glad it all got sorted mate
  9. Where u from amt?
  10. Cheers guys, gonna give it a go after work tomorrow, see if i can get it done
  11. Anyone know how the vredersteins hold up in the snow? I can imagine them turning into sledges when they fill up
  12. The amount of stuff ive fit in my zed that im impressed with. The zed is more convenient than most cars haha. Fit back box and mid pipe with a passenger the other week A v2 bumper at an awkward angle 6 boxes of vinyl (just awkward due to being 1.5m long) But.... You cant fit a storage box in the car if you have a passenger.... Due to the rear strut.... Lol
  13. Tried to find a thread i read a while ago but had no luck. The bolt where the mid pipe meets the y shaped pipe, does anyone know the bolt size for that? I tried 10-15mm but either too big or too small, but sure if its rusted into a hexagon shape lol Cheers
  14. I was told to remove the weight in the boot which would fix it, but instead of double tapping 100% of the time, just made it 50%, putting a rubber piece (or penny) over the circular area where the rubber spring touches should fix it 100%
  15. I wanted tan leather but i think it only goes well with black or silver. It is nice colour in real life
  16. The damaged part is seen below, the circular connector has snapped away. This is the only problem The damaged area is where the back box meets the mid pipe, the little circular ring that goes around the end has corroded off. i presume its weldable im not sure. Location is Ruislip, West London (Ha46ng) For free whoever wants to take it, i will be throwing it out in a few days so just drop a PM or reply to this thread Cheers Dean
  17. Its easy to do most stuff yourself, yeah u snap a clip or lose a bolt but id rather do everything myself. Especially since theres too many cowboys out there who wont admit when they cant do a job and would rather hide the bad work, atleast if i break something, i learn from it and know exactly whats been done
  18. Ive tried doing it, but doesnt make a difference, obviously doing it wrong. Are you guys wetting the headlight, wetting cloth, then tcut for 15mins then rinse off? Or meguirs
  19. I dont understand why the yellow interior guy hasnt put some new seats in, would be my first mod lol
  20. That must have been so awkward tryna get that done with a tiny gap to squeeze under lol
  21. +1 Give him an email that hes broke bits, and your wanting it put correctly. Let him know you want to go to nissan dealer and get his response.
  22. Im going through the same situation with another company atm. You need to try to settle the situation as much as possible, i.e. find common agreement, keep all contact on email for proof. If he says he will give u a fiver and damage is worth 500, obviously thats not agreeable. Have you spoke to him about it? Or just realised all is broken and not spoke to him about it?
  23. Hey mate, ur carbon fibre piece that goes around the bonnet locking mechanism, does that cover the top bit of ur bumper? Where the bumper meets the bonnet lock?
  24. The re040's are actually a fantastic tyre for track use in the dry. They're hard wearing and grip very well once warmed up correctly. Taking a 90degree corner at 60 Quick way to learn you can't drive I wasnt a big fan of them, just seemed to wheelspin alot. Dry was okay, rain was shocking. And corner wasnt my fault lol, but still stuck although i doubt my vreds are gna be much use in scotland when it snows
  25. Bridgestone potenza 040 : absolute pants, good if u wanna drift or burn out. Vrederstein ultrac sessentas : not tested to the full yet, but took a 90degree corner at 60 and gripped.
