  1. Braun Cruzer 4. It's like a regular electric shaver but it has a slidy thing on top that you can use for non-babyface smooth. Only one length but it works for me. Not too scruffy for the squares in the office, but deep down, people know you're the kind of maverick who doesn't always play by the rules but does always get the job done. I think Jack Bauer would have one. Allegedly it goes in the shower but with no shower mirror, I tend use it old skool, over a sink.
  2. Simple but effective. Nice work. You've rekindled my interest in this...
  3. Of course. Naturally I searched before posting didn't find many actual resolutions.
  4. Cheers fellas. I've got a friendly tech next door who'll hook it up to his super computer if it comes back on tomorrow. Hopefully that'll at least give me a connector, or area, to check once more. She was in for a lip respray today, you don't think some overspray could've snuck into one of the front impact sensors? I know it's a long shot but...
  5. Checked them more closely now, all look and feel secure (who knew there were so many?). Disconnected battery. Left her five. Still there. I've reset again and gone, very short drive, not appeared again, left her to think about what she's done overnight. Just out of interest. When the light is on does that mean the system is disarmed? Or likely to explode in my face any second?
  6. On the way home from work the air bag warning light popped up. I had a quick rustle under the seats, checked everything looked secure, nothing loose, did the reset from here http://www.350z-uk.com/index.php?showtopic=3047 and it went away. However, 5 minutes later it's back on. Grrrrrrr. Any suggestions from here for further fiddling or do I have an actual genuine light I need to go and get looked at? Going to have a proper ratch around after tea, once I've kicked off the suit. What colour leads should I be examining down there? Is it yellow? Thanks anyone.
  7. Back to St Anne's Bodywork for the minor lip incident to be erased from history, all good now. Thanks to John and his fine work there, highly recommended and competitively priced It seemed rude not to get my strut brace painted too, hiding the scratches from countless golf bag ingresses and egresses. Really quite pleased with this.
  8. Love it. Next project? Sledgehammer for walnut?
  9. After a few Colombo style emails (thanks Jez @ Horsham, TDI, RS and Scott @ Abbey for quick responses all round) turns out she was remapped at Horsham last year. Well deduced JJT. Not sure why the previous owner omitted the receipts for that and the plenum spacer, but hey ho. So, what do I do next? It's kid of scuppered my plans for faster. Not sure it's worth doing again just for the Berks? Maybe cornering next? Eibach ARB kit front and rear? Open to suggestions...
  10. +1 on camera if you have a headunit to match. I think mine cost about £25 all in, plus some free advice off here. I'm a non-mechanical type and got the fear on bumper removal, but it was actually relatively straight forward in the end. I've found sensors (admittedly on other cars) a bit paranoid, prefer being able to see than pestered by beeps. Boot loads of detail here. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/56481-kenwood-ddx-4028bt-rear-cam-install-–-superguide/
  11. Mine was noisy and stiff, until I gave the spring a liberal spray of white lithium grease. Took two applications a week apart, then nice and smooth. http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_213859_langId_-1_categoryId_165705 The tricky bit is getting in the footwell upside down and not getting the grease everywhere or having a back spasm.
  12. This looks perfect for a Super Bowl party in Feb.
  13. It's disgusting. I love it. I want one. What's with the chicken soup? A tasty beverage to wash down a Big Ekona Burger? 5 dollar shake for dessert?
  14. Just a short clip of the new sound, not full beans only about 5k. I'm sure it'll settle down after a few hundred miles, but I hope not
  15. That's going to upset someone, but it's an absolute beauty of a motor. Good on you for breaking the mould and trying something a bit out there. Some of the snaps on here might make a man reconsider his views on Porsche...
  16. Can't you wait until your husband gets home?
  17. I was trying this earlier, youtube links just seem to magic straight in, but not PB. Might it be how the host handles the request from the URL possibly?
  18. Just tried a few different ones, not made a difference. Hmmmm, fine on my iPad.
  19. Backing board is a good idea. Like it.
  20. I'm a waver, up until today I've always got one back - clearly 370 drivers round here won't salute lowly 350s.
  21. Have you checked the content filter ticks on the left when the page displays?
