Personally, I don't think your girlfriend was trying hard enough , but if she'd opened the doors from the inside or released the bonnet catch, that should've done it; according to the manual anyway.

Just what I thought when I read the first post - reason being I did exactly this when I brought my car home for the first time! Spent ages out on my driveway trying to work out why the hell it was beeping at me; finally realised the spare key was in my bag on the passenger seat....

GO PRO time lapse? Head cam? I dyslexically misread that as "Go prolapse time". Hopefully not a bad omen....

Good show; hope that does the trick!

As flyboy said above, and from the manual for my 2011 reg: "The rain sensor sensitivity level can be adjusted by turning the knob toward the front (High) or toward the rear (Low)." Also says the intermittent wipe speed for the rear wiper is not adjustable. It does sound like yours is just goosed mate!

Yep, 2 minute job - both of mine went at the same time, about a week after I got the car.... I got the replacements off Amazon; http://www.amazon.co.uk/CR2032-Battery-pack-Panasonic-Lithium/dp/B002TZTSUM/ref=sr_1_3?s=drugstore&ie=UTF8&qid=1413148687&sr=1-3&keywords=cr2032+battery

It would be more exciting if, instead of changing cars during the pitstop, they had to change a pair of novelty oversized Duracell batteries. "Rookie mistake there from the team, got the + and - round the wrong way...."

I tend to go for anything rock/metal; AC/DC, Metallica, Iron Maiden. The Prodigy are freakin' awesome to work out to as well. But if I ever want to get reeeeaaaallly pumped up I go for Rage Against The Machine. Killing In The Name, turned up as loud as you dare, is just about the angriest song I've ever heard but it does the trick every time. Don't abstain from Eye Of The Tiger for too long though....

^ Maybe, but you'd have to be careful with the hand gestures....

It's a spring located on an assembly attached to the clutch pedal (see the eBay link above for pictures). Its job is to make the clutch pedal easier to depress - especially in the first couple of inches of travel, which is where the bite-point is - and damp its return; but it masks feel through the pedal. Removing/replacing it is just personal preference, though I'm happy I did. It's a bit like the silly boot weight really; I'm not sure what kind of noodle-armed choirboys (thank you, The Simpsons) they thought were going to be driving these cars....

Do you get much free play in the pedal at the top of its travel with the spring removed? On the US forums that seemed to be one of the main reasons cited for fitting the softer replacement.

Protein actually makes you feel fuller for longer than either carbs or fat, so increasing that, combined with higher fibre intake from green veggies, is the best way of satiating hunger. I wouldn't bother too much about the absolute amount of calories the app is telling you you've burnt; as long as you try to push yourself a little more each time you go out you'll make progress.

Don't know if you're still looking into this or not mate (I know it was a while ago), but I've just replaced mine with this one from the States; http://www.ebay.com/itm/FITS-INFINITI-G37-G37S-G35-NISSAN-370Z-370-Z-6MT-CLUTCH-PEDAL-ASSIST-SPRING-/201111152023?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2ed328a597&vxp=mtr Cost less than £20 delivered and arrived within 7 days of despatch. First impressions; clutch feels a bit less assisted, less springy (no sh! t, right? ) and there's definitely a wee bit more feel at the biting point - to me, any improvement over stock, however small, is worth it. I should've tried it with the spring out for comparison's sake, but it was raining and I was already fed-up lying upside down and half in the car!

Good decision mate. I wonder if the seller has had lots of knock-backs following test drives and that's why he's willing to take such low offers.

I wonder how much that seat went for on eBay....

^ Or maybe a fog horn.... Seriously good idea though.

As above, your diet should be able to provide all the nutrition you require without the need for supplements, particularly for your stated goals and current type of training. That said, I'd highly recommend you do some kind of resistance training; nothing will re-shape your body faster. There's absolutely no chance you'll gain too much muscle by accident; it's hard enough for guys to do, and damn near impossible for women. Protein is the thing that builds and repairs muscle, and it's a good idea to ingest some along with some carbs immediately after training - by the way, chocolate milk (or whatever flavour you prefer!) is ideal for this, removing the need for expensive protein supplements. Aim for something like 1 to 1.5g per kg of bodyweight per day - that should probably be enough for your goals - and try to get it from lean meat, fish, eggs, nuts and seeds etc. If you rely on protein supplementation you miss out on the additional nutrients gained from eating whole foods. Creatine has many potential benefits for those undertaking heavy resistance training, but you definitely don't need it for what you're doing. As for the muscle soreness you're experiencing, nothing in your diet or any supplements you take will prevent this. You might find warming up before/cooling down after exercise, light stretching, foam rolling, hot/cold baths, active recovery sessions and various other stuff may help alleviate it, but it's just your body reacting to the stress you're putting it under. It should get less severe over time as your body adapts. Keep up the good work!

And that, right there, was where I went wrong!

Cars and property are apparently the only two items where winning bids on ebay are non-binding.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2012-NISSAN-370Z-GT-V6-BLUE-/121393666942?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item1c43a05b7e&nma=true&si=mzh8zDkq2B4nNYQcuXVehhlRIZo%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

It was actually up for £17k, so it's a 5 grand hit!

I think I'd be phoning JFE Nissan to see if they'd give a more thorough account of the extent of the damage. Plus, the guy's ebay feedback doesn't inspire confidence (yes, I've been cyber-stalking ).

From the photos it looks like there are at least four panels damaged, and given the position of the damage maybe the alloys on that side too. Still doesn't seem like enough to write off a ~£20k car though. Did he say how it happened, or give an idea of the level of the impact?

I've also now got a set going if anyone wants them (Set 4, going from the above posts).
