  1. FWIW back in 2014 when I bought my 2012 '12 plate GT Edition auto from a Nissan dealer i paid £21k and it had 26,000 miles on it I've always found WBAC to be a pretty good starting point for cars valuations
  2. I've got a few options But do tell Sent on your facebook
  3. I know someone who can make stuff like that not far from you
  4. That depends entirely on the foam and how you're using it. Granted, it's unlikely remove all of the dirt, but you can actually lift a lot of dirt off well protected paint with nothing more than a good foam and the right technique. ohh yes its all down to the technique You cant just soak a car in snow foam and rinse it off whatever the technique , it will still leave random areas
  5. If you dont trust the garage you shouldn't take your car there , if you do trust them you shouldn't care whether they unplug your dashcam or not
  6. i always use these guys https://www.tayna.co.uk/
  7. Nissan dont care about this issue , if they did it wouldn't keep coming up time and time again.
  8. Snow foam wont remove all the dirt in fact hardly removes any it just loosens it What about something like Optimum no rinse ? One bucket of water and a handful of microfibres and jobs a good un My technique is to use a clean microfibre for each panel , never put a dirty one in the water and a separate microfibre to dry
  9. You can be compensated for a loss but looks like this chap got free spacers so he is already up on the deal
  10. I dont believe so only the front
  11. Not at a dealer i hope , a proper geo setup is specialist work
  12. Anti-lag ?? Lag is a big issue with these cars , seems to take forever to build boost Guessing you want pops and bangs, launch control and the ability to limit the rpm ie valet mode ? You could achieve this with a Bee R limiter , by far the cheapest option , not that I am recommending using you car like this or using either launch control or the rpm limit on a regular basis http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BEE-R-REV-LIMITER-TYPE-B-SUBARU-FOR-NISSAN-TOYOTA-LEXUS-LAUNCH-CONTROL-/290842127668?hash=item43b78aad34:g:LVgAAOSw-FZXj0Cs
  13. Think its 35psi if memory serves, I wasnt a fan of the Bridgestones but they never felt floaty they just lacked grip, I would get the car checked for the transit blocks its alarmingly common for them to be left in. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/112979-oh-dear-aldershot/ So my course of action would be Pressures Transit blocks Full geometry check/set up
  14. I've sold my last few cars through ebay and the dealer I bought my Jag from had ads on ebay, AT and PH

    New Car Time

    Got this on my '12 XFR as well , not tried it yet though
  16. Do you have decats or sports cats ? I'm not sure but looking here it looks like they may be the downstream sensors which can be turned off with UPREV P1147 Heated O2 Sensor 2 P1167 Heated O2 Sensor 2 Nissan sensors are really pricey generally
  17. Too expensive nowadays I reckon but it depends very much on the car
  18. Penn Autos in Wolverhampton is probably the best transmission guy I know , he does rear axle sets ups http://www.redvictor1racing.co.uk/index.php/penn-autos-mainmenu-34
  19. You shouldn't need a transmission specialist for that, I know H-Dev did a few , you need to order the required shims from Nissan
  20. With banana arms i would suggest replacing both sides at the same time , at the end of the day they are both the same age and will have covered the same miles most likely , do both and dont forget to get the tracking checked afterwards

    AFR widband kit

    Dont know anything about Stack ones but I've used the innovate ones , always buy mine from Grant at GBE, top fella http://gb-ent.com/innovate-motorsports
  22. Yeah, I'm keeping it stock... I still haven't used 100% throttle in first or second gear yet - it's just too fast for my brain... that and it's been permanently cold and wet since I got it. I had a big moment in mine before Xmas so havent driven it much since then
  23. A remap will get them to 570hp or so , drop a smaller pulley on and you can get 585-590 with over 525ft lbs . but to be fair even stock I dont feel that mine lacks power
  24. Kyanite blue is a special colour imo , looks fab in the sun , my XFR is the same colour along with ivory leather also . Enjoy
