SkylineV35

Oh go on then, cos you you winked at me http://www.350z-tech...ey_Installation Haha iv still got it! Thank you!

Yeah i thought the zed engine fuel consumption would be an issue due to the bad press and was actually considering a new 3series coupe because of the comparison to fuel consumption and power... but i now average 32mpg on motorways at 70+ mph, and city rural 22mpg. Which all in all isnt too bad compared to my past cars like the Mister2 and the Soarer 2.5tt..

Good luck im nearing that stage soon!

Water and coolant levels seem to be fine. Hmmm... il try get her up to temperature later and listen for the fans. Do you think one of those low temperature thermostats would help?

Pressure wash it to death if you want. The vinyl wont lift unless its not stuck down properly. I.e if its starting to peel, the hose wont help. But if its flush and stuck down, it wont lift You need to leave it outside for roughly 5days for it to set in place before power hosing. Mostly labour cost. The vinyl itself is 40 for gloss, at a guess probably 70-80 for carbon. 300 for roof is quite expensive, but again a good garage with reputation will put prices up. Most will wrap a gloss black roof for 90ish. Carbon is a bit harder to work with to not stretch. They said 240 for gloss black on roof and quoted 2hours work.I did see some samples but i dont know if it was me being a perfectionist but i noticed overlaps on the window a pillars is that normal? or is it practically impossible to wrap a full car without lines? Thanks Saskhi

Thanks Ian, I just gave him a call he sounds very knowledgable and good guy to work with thanks! Plus a good oportunity to test out the Welsh A-roads incomparison to the Scottish!

Usually my temp reading sits a little below the halfway line on the temp reading, but the other day i was parked with the engine idling waiting for a friend, was getting hot so rolled up the windows and turned on the A/C and maxed it out to coldest possible setting, 15mins later i noticed the temperature had climbed close to the H on the temp reading and then i quickly looked at the outside temp reading and it read 32degrees!! So in a panic i switched off the car. When my friend finally came down, i got in the car and decided to turn off aircon, turn on the heating to max and gave it a quick blast to force some air into the engine bay, a few minutes later the temperature finally went down to half way but not as low as it usually sits. That was 3days ago and the temperature has been fine ever since but is there anything i should actually check to prevent this from happening? Or does idling with aircon on have this effect? Any ideas? Eg thermostat or fan etc... Thanks Saskhi

Thanks Chris they have arrived! Very speedy delivery was stalking the dhl tracking and literally got to the door before the guy could ring the bell lol! Now to find someone in Cardiff to fit them! Saskhi

You dont happen to have a guide for fitting pulleys do you?

Just got quoted an hours labour 106pounds from Nissan. Help Please!! lol

Just got quoted 1600 to wrap the whole car!?!? Then i asked how about just the roof in carbon fibre style , 300!? Surely 3M vinyl doesnt cost that much..

Recently relocated to Cardiff area, struggling to find any garages around here. Looking for a garage to fit pulleys and belts any recommendations? Thanks Saskhi

Yeh was about to say once the coolant tank was out the way it was like a blessing! Also relocating the earthing cable, i had to bend the clip with some grips so that the wire casing didnt touch the radiator pipe.

Yeah i said it was ok! I didnt mind! Finally after a few scrapped knuckles.. its there! Stupid multi hex swiss army knife thing is not ideal for the job! I was swearing like a trooper lol Thanks for fixing the pic.

Yeah i hate how they do customer service these days, i remember waiting weeks upon weeks and when i finally got a letter from dvla they had sent me the whole shibang back and put in a polite little letter saying i forgot to cross something?! Sorry just having a lil rant

Can i just ask, what modifications have you done? As your name suggests chinese, Yeung no offense lol but i remember buying a voltage stabaliser when i was in hongkong and it was still on even when car was off...leading to drain. Also iv also had drain when i wired a soundsystem in the wrong way lol
