  1. Just installed a mishimoto oil cooler today. Took 5 hours and a bit of cutting plastic arch/ under trims to feed pipes through but all sorted and no leaks. Run for 5 mins to check system and i was amazed how hot the braided lines and rad was after so little time. Got a great deal on it from torqen in the august sale. No pics of it installed but this is the kit
  2. Lets have a boots 3 for 2 offer I think that would work great for everyone
  3. G1en

    2 radiators?

    Cheers. Must be in decent shape because the air con is ice cold. So do the fans behind the rad blow or suck? Insert inuendo. They must suck as if they blow its counter productive to the natural airflow from driving
  4. Might look ridiculous but he wont be scraping his y pipe on speed bumps like the rest of us
  5. So a few months back cougar store fitted me a mishimoto rad and samco hoses Then in the August Torqen sale i bought a mishimoto oil cooler kit So i thought id give it go fitting myself but the 2 hrs i put aside after work were vastly optomistic. Anyway after taking bumper off. Disconecting washers and emptying the screenwash all over drive. Finding out that the holes where the oil cooler bracket fixes were already used by clips so i ripped those off to worry about tying everything up later i thought to myself. The rad looks older than me. On closer inspection i noticed it actually sits in front of the new mishi rad. You can just make out the bottom of the mishi rad in the pic. Its the thin silver line. So what rad is this? I think the small one at front left is the power steering rad? The oil cooler rad goes front right when i get round to it. Please proceed to make me feel a muppet😂
  6. I work in Knaresborough and have seen a couple of gunmetal zeds recently on A59. We should organise something. Everthing seems to be midlands and southern
  7. Think your speedo is out also because surely you mean when travelling at 70mph but your speedo is falsly reading 80 👌ðŸ»
  8. You cant transfer or carry on tax now. Dont want you to get caught cold but every new owner must tax the car in their name from when they purchase. I am sure your sorted but just reads above as though you have bought the car with 7 months tax still on it
  9. Great to meet you guys for the first time. Was some cracking cars there. Just needed some more trade stands. Cant remember any names apart from Ian for giving me a fiver, Dave for filling his 500GB SD card with photos and (shezza) cant remember proper name for letting me know my car is allowed to be less shiny than his because its ibisu black not kuro black. ðŸ‘ðŸ»
  10. http://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/GB/Aerokit_350Z_SPEC_R-1_Vented_Wings/350ZR1FW_.aspx What about these? £240 for the pair Just found a few small rust spots on my front arch so considering getting these. Will save a bit of weight as well
  11. Same here. Aiming to get there for 8:30. Spent 6hrs today using my new da polisher and only managed to do half the car. 2hrs on motorway tomorrow morning will probably render that pointless as well. And spotted a couple of rust spots on front arch lip so will be asking for some advice tomorrow please. See you all in the morning
  12. The main message is shop around. State that you are office based as this should be low risk and state the best estimate milage as this can make 100/200 quid difference from say 6000 to 12000. Try adding your mum/gran/neighbour to see if it reduces. Issurance companies without doubt have an encyclopedia full of excuses why your premium is high or has gone up. The things like you have a south facing drive so it gets more sun so engine could overheat and you live in a LS postcode and mi5 have informed them its an ISIS target etc.... Just try to be savvy
  13. I will be heading down from Yorkshire so wrong side for me also. First car show ive been to. I need to get this new da polisher in action this weekend to get rid of as many marks as poss so as not to show myself up too much. May need to park behind someone and just poke one of my new SSR wheels out ðŸ‘ðŸ»
  14. Got mine on email. Anyone traveling from north? (Yorkshire)
  15. 201513762569 Above item on ebay at present 19" wheels with pictures of them on a 350z Seem a bargain to me if anyone is after a cheap set of 19" rims with great offset to fill arches
  16. If you have no spare wheel do you have to have the sealant to pass an mot? Because to be honest i would prob never use either so may well take the spare out
  17. Whats with the 16" rear wheel and 18" front wheel Not to mention the foot of suspension travel at the front end. French border police will have to check the arches for immigrants
  18. I have done this one for several years. Can you PM me the pin to join. Cheers
  19. Love the plethora of colours thats bounce out as the light hits the paintwork £300 not gonna get much else. Scrap value will be £150 surely so no brainer
  20. Good spot man. At £165 seems great value for money.
  21. Cheers Dan. Will prob go for that then. Any idea what paint/laquer is like on a BMW E90 ? I can use that as the tryout as its my daily and has a fair few marks on.
