  1. I wouldn't swap mine, not even with cash my way. There are lots of nice (and expensive) exhausts out there, but I don't think there is anything close to the Nismo for sound. It is incredible when paired with some sports cats. Plus you can't get them anymore which rightly or wrongly will inflate the price and desirability. I'll probably sell mine if I ever get rid of the Zed (As it wasn't factory fitted), but no plans to at the moment.
  2. WTF... driving without insurance and dangerous driving... and all he gets is a 14 day ban, 6 points and a £320 fine... seriously?
  3. If only there was some kind of thing that helped you look for things online? I wish someone would invent something? In the meantime, a Dan will do!
  4. Why do they need to replace him? Chris Harris and Rory are the 2 who actually know about cars. Once their profile has increased a bit, there should be no reason why they can't be part of the main show. Hopefully the videos starting on the TG website will help with this.
  5. It's a bit tinfoil hat, but I also think that younger people should boycott having black boxes... or face the consequences in the long run. They are fundamentally flawed anyway as accelerating hard and braking hard would be picked up as bad driving, but they can't do anything about people drink/drug driving, on the phone, texting or running red lights, which are obviously far more dangerous.
  6. Shame you've got to get rid and GLWTS. Are you really sure you want a diesel rep mobile? A 320d is a lovely car... it doesn't exactly get the blood pumping though.
  7. Depends if you want to do it yourself? Not everyone has the inclination to break out the spanners when something is wrong.
  8. If you don't want to do a bit of DIY... Wheel off > remove brake pads > Break cleaner > copper grease > refit... then I guess you need to pay the money. If you try this first yourself, then at least you can see if this fixes the problem and it will take under an hour to do. It could be that your pads are nearly worn? When were they last changed?
  9. Are you sure it's cats and not foxes (Or a dog)? Cats generally prefer flower beds or sand as they naturally want to cover up their peeps and poops... Just a thought?
  10. Congratulations! Need another Tuscan update please!
  11. I don't understand what the £300 is for? If the plate is going to auction, then isn't it a DVLA auction, which you can register on and bid yourself. I got mine from a DVLA one.
  12. £50!!! I'd also try Clark Motorsport as they usually have a few parts like that in stock.
  13. Defo a Stillen by the ebay pcis - plus there's no other reason on earth that you'd fit that bonnet. Good spot about the missing side indicator... strange...
  14. Because I'm getting married in 3 weeks, that's why!
  15. I can only assume that Nissan maps them to run on 95 before selling them in Ireland then?
  16. Republic of Ireland. My apologies, I didn't notice the Dublin in your Sig until now.
  17. I'm guessing it's the NI equivalent of what we all call you here.
  18. Not to be the voice of doom and gloom, and I'm sure one tank won't hurt, but there are a number of incidents on here regarding running the incorrect fuel (And hundreds of threads). Mark from Abbey Motor Sport had a thread a few years back where they were rebuilding an engine which had very serious knock issues due to running lower octane fuel. Long term it will cause issues with premature engine wear or failure. It says 98 RON on the filler cap for a reason, Nissan know what they are talking about. Not sure why there aren't issues in NI? Maybe the cars are mapped for lower octane or maybe your octane ratings are different to the GB (Like the US)?
  19. Sounds like sour grapes to me Mr 1.3%!
  20. 28.6% - Not looking good for you mate! Mercy Likes all round.
  21. If you're worried about asking for cash, then you can setup a gift website where people can pay amounts of money for imaginary experiences that you can have on your holiday. You can then chose to do those things or just lop a lump sum off the total cost of the honeymoon. The people we booked with have this as an option and I think it's fairly common nowadays.
  22. No. Gone are the days when people need toasters and tea sets. We have asked for contributions to our honeymoon for our wedding in less than 3 weeks! We have been together 10 years and living together 8, so we already have all the house stuff well and truly covered.
  23. +1 for these guys. Did a fantastic job of my wheels for about £280 ish.
  24. Admittedly I could have add a "some" before "people" in my previous post, but I didn't say "all" people who voted remain either. Sorry to quote you again Paddy, but as an example my FB feed is covered with stuff like this right now: To be fair, I blame the Leave campaigners and the press. When the main argument you see on repeat from them is "migration, migration, migration" I guess you can't help but feel as if anyone voting leave is agreeing with that point. I couldn't give a stuff about migration (considering my wife is from Paris quite the opposite), however I still want to know where the corruption (Statue of Mars penis anybody?), failing EU economy (50% unemployment in places, reduction in GDP as % of world GDP) type arguments were... Those arguments weren't mentioned because that's not how you hook in the main Brexit demographic (If the stats are to be believed).
  25. I refuse to accept that I backed the wrong side. I think leaving the EU is on par as an idea with America building a wall across the Mexican border. Xenophobia and ignorance have won the day... So basically you read the media's coverage on Brexit and decided you should remain based on that right? And anyone that voted leave is a racist? Quite frankly if you think that voting leave is equivalent to building a wall between the states and mexico then your vote shouldn't be counted! Don't get upset with me because you're now forever associated with the same demographic that read the sun, like Britain First and vote BNP. There were some interesting economic questions tabled by the Brexit campaign, but I personally couldn't get behind some of the worst detritus our political system can generate, who were so bitterly focused on stirring up intolerance and hatred that they failed to deliver any substantial plans for a Leave vote. Your leader has even come out this morning on TV and basically said that your main promise was complete horse sh!t... and I'm the one who shouldn't have been allowed to vote?
