  1. Don't forget a big spot lamp and a gun rack, also a CB radio. You know the steering wheel is on the wrong side yeah? I know it's not built for speed and cornering, but is there any 'sport' there (except the badge)?
  2. The thing that gets me about some, not all, bikes (pedal and power) is that I was told to treat them in the same way as a car, in terms of space and accommodation on the road. I totally get this, but you can't have it both ways. If you want to be treated like a car, behave like one, no nipping in-between, no undertaking and no sitting in blind spots.
  3. Glad you've solved it, but I was just the messenger. NEO is The One.
  4. I've found it can be intermittent too, not sure how much tempreture is a factor and also length of time the boot has been unopened. These do seem to have an impact in my experience. It clears 99 times out of a hundred now, and so far I have: Replaced pop springs with genuine Zmanalex/Nissan pop springs Replaced boot struts (this was to stop tailgate falling on my head when open, not to assist boot pop!) Removed rear wiper (this was for cosmetic purposes, but there is a not insignificant weight reduction too) Removed boot weight Added rubber "bumper" feet (approx 1cm in height) to the pop springs The last two on the list had the most noticeable effect, but were also the last steps I took - so not exactly scientific proof I don't experience any drafts or any increase in noise since these have been done, there's no water ingress (which would suggest the seal is still tight). Anyway, that's all the steps I could find on here and it's now sorted, fingers crossed. Glad you seem to have it fixed too bud, hopefully it won't come back.

    Which lip?

    Can you not move it somewhere else? So the Nismo kit feels comfortable in the living room.

    Nice Zed Coldel. The stillen splitter was right up on my list, but I didn't fancy the little "braces" on my GM. Looks sweet against black though.
  8. If you're in it for the challenge and satisfaction, maybe http://nofilmschool.com/build-a-hackintosh/ I quite like the idea of having a crack at this! Worse case scenario, you end up with a decent PC/Ubuntu machine.
  9. I'm northern so I'm all over chips and gravy, but with cheese curd? You guys are crazy!
  10. Can you just rock up with no tickets and pay on the door?
  11. Interesting one, thinking of doing the same thing for my old man.
  12. Yes, that comes from there own stats I get you, it'll be 25% of the world's prisoner population I suspect. It's a scary stat though.
  13. They have 25% of the world population in their jails? That's circa 1.25 billion people.
  14. I found a BATTERY15 but it expired. You may find another, or have a few guesses at ones taking a similar form.
  15. Wow. I hope they're that well put together.
  16. Here you go bud, from page 1. http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Nissan_350Z_3.5_2003/p/car-parts/car-electrics-and-car-lighting/electrical/car-battery/?444770057&1&74abf2b8ffbb747d626b1423951b60679aa5be26&000020 I hope it's the right one, it's sitting in my lounge waiting to go in!
  17. Needs a winch and stubby, but otherwise... it's as cool as. Is there a small arch gap there too ? Seriously though, congrats. Hope you enjoy it and get her properly muddy! PS - is it true you guys only eat French fries and gravy?
  18. Stop flirting and get it on. I declined my usual Kelly Brook calendar for this!
  19. I'll let you know when I've unpacked it, should take about a week!
  20. I was chatting to a knowledgable fella at work today and he said he though there was a similar attempt with solenoids back in the day, possibly lotus.
  21. True story. Has the RX8 come up? I was a hair's breadth from one before I was seduced by a Zed.
