  1. I always modify my cars too much! When I bought it I said I wasnt going to! Now look where I am! Ive always wanted a set to be fair, i do personally feel the light output of the prefacelift version is poor for HID equipped headlights I personally wouldnt, not something Id feel comfortable with. Bodyshops only normally charge between £50-100 to do the work
  2. I removed them from the car and took them down to the bodyshop, and they then went on to rub the lenses down the same way you would with the various kits online. However, the only difference is they then clear coated the headlights like they would be from factory Personally I much prefer facelift headlights, they also have a much greater light output So with that being said, along came a purchase... The car hasnt changed a great deal, but that wont stay like that haha! Got a few plans in the pipework. Had to do some maintenance as it blew a couple coilpacks so bought 6 secod hand off here. It had a wash and full wax last Sunday ready for a few local shows And put away ready More to come soon, including new bonnet, exhaust rework and fitting of the headlights

  4. Id rather put the money towards a trader or anyone selling one Nissan have done well enough out of me lately! I know, its such a hard job showing them the error of their ways on a daily basis! But the first project was a Type R so
  5. I was going to give them a shout tomorrow, just thought Id ask here as its better to fund the community rather then stealerships! Trust me, I work for Honda
  6. As above, after a HR facelift bonnet. Can any of the traders on here source one and are happy to deliver?
  7. Bump. Having been let down Im still looking for a set of the above.
  8. Yep, unfortunately diagnosed it today as a blown coilpack on cylinder 1 Martin! Lucky its not drastic but what @*!# timing! We were all really looking forward to that drive tomorrow
  9. Sorry Martin, going to have to cancel. Should've known things were going too well! The Z has thrown a wobbly, first time driving it in two weeks and its developed a horrible shudder, mis-firing and wont gain any sort of revs. Joy
  10. Ok we're planning our route now, out of interest why avoid Copthrone ? Google maps and travel isn't showing any problems? If there are we're a little stuffed as its our main route in and out!
  11. With regard to lunch, is it alright if he orders from the menu instead as hes not overly keen on the "carvery" side of food. Sorry to be difficult Also, which way are you heading up the A24? As we'll be heading up that way too
  12. Bummmmmmmp. Come on someone! @ZMANALEX do you still have any?

  16. To be honest my Zs so low that not even low trolly jacks fit under it without the need for planks of wood, so if they manage to get my wheels off then they're welcome to them Agreed on mixing OE and aftermarket lugs, it would bug the hell out of me! Thanks bud! I love the nismos but they probably will go in the latter end of this year, I get bored fairly quickly and fancy a change. Something dishy and lower her right down, perhaps even air...
  17. So little uodate to kick 2018 off! Mighty depressing looking at the old pictures and seeing how clean it was, damn you winter! So I got the new nuts fitted, thanks to Chris again It then sat for a bit, while I started the new job at Honda which Im really enjoying! Steep learning curve but its worth it. Its come out recently in the worst weather as they said I could take the car in on a Saturday and do some work. So naturally, snuck it into the Honda workshop... They were exceptionally kind and even re-gassed my aircon system for me free of charge! Ive never had aircon done before but bloody hell! What a difference! So Im still waiting on my first pay check which is burning a monumental hole in my pocketss you can imagine haha! But the plan for January goes like this 1. HR headlights 2. HR / aftermarket bonnet 3. Fix OEM locking. Im excited for a switch up in 2018!
  18. So an update to this which has left me further confused Ive not driven it in about two weeks after that code kept repeatedly coming on. Did the pedal dance today, have taken it out with half a tank of fresh Vpower, given it a skinful in places and absolutely nothing. No code and didnt miss a beat! Whats going on!
  19. Not been able to swap them over just yet due to my MOT ramp failing, just checking it'll be ok to drive the car with this code on? Or will it be running super lean?
  20. Ok Ill let you know in January and hopefully we can discuss further, waiting on my first pay check coming through from the new job
  21. So swap the post cat lamda sensors round with the pre cat senors? Or swap them left to right? If its the former then your saying I should then see the secondary bank come on if its a duff sensor? Even though I had them switched off withthe remap?
  22. Condition Alex? Is that a posted price
  23. Evening everyone, after a bit of advice. Had the car remapped in September by Abbey Motorsport due to numerous modifcations including full exhaust and sports cats, and its been fine until last week in which the familar ECU light has come back. When it was remapped it had the secondary Lamda's switched off, so when it came back I was curious. As it turned out it was code P1273 - Air / fuel sensor 1 Bank 1 lean condition. I spoke to Mark and he advised to switch it off, and see if it came back. Well, its coming back nearly daily now, the same code every single time. Mark advised that I should try rotating the sensors round, and see if that cures it before splashing out on two new sensors which is a valid idea, but how likely is this going to be a fix? Or is it a dead sensor? Is there any other sensor that could cause this code? Its been perfect since the remapping until this where Ive also noticed its drinking fuel like no tomorrow. Any input happily recieved, just want the light out now!
  24. As per the title, come January Im going to be after a set of facelift HR headlights. Must be in as good as condition as possible, hazing or fading is ok as I plan on getting a bodyshop to refurbish them. But please no scratches or multiple broken clips. With ballests and bulbs, complete plug and play Thanks everyone
