if i could run at 27mph i'd be the fastest fat man on the planet

told you marshalls were good

looks very good in the second vid, lets just hope it comes in under 40k

avoid japspeed like the plague; cheap sh1t that breaks

come on stew you should know this by now, big engines are on the way out, especially in cheaper cars. the zed Vq engine is soon to be a relic. small and turbo's what this will get. especially if they want to keep the weight to 1000kg thats elise fighting country that is.

but you hav to take into account the cars fastest section is the 2nd 100 metres. at that point its rate of acceleration is exponential. first 50 metres is where it counts and it depends on acceleration.

over 100m i think bolt would have it. yes his top speed is 23 mph but he's nearly at top speed from the start, car is heavier takes longer to reach same speed. i reckon it would be close. bolt vs a cheetah ronaldo vs veyron http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vv2dkd1ZiO0

i believe they are a nod to the original which had 2 extra lights.

my first car was a rover 214, i bought the front and rear bumper and alloys from the tomcat but i didn't badge it such, it still said 214si on the back

audi running lights not on an audi

large exhausts or multiple large exhausts on a car with a 1 litre engine. why bother with anything larger than 2.5" anything larger is like farting down a canyon.

have a look at my exhaust post for the jag, that was custom built using longlife stuff, from my research its one of the best multinationals etc. but the skill comes down to the garage installing it, so who ever you use try and find some feedback for them etc.

you don't have to disclose it unless its a Cat C or D etc. lots of cars on the forum have had knocks etc but its very rare to see an advert saying, pristine car, been crashed 3 times. who's going to buy that?

i twas my dealings with head office that put the final nail in the coffin for me. marshalls are very good regardless of what manufacturer they are selling for, and were very helpful with a warranty issue. agreed with all was said, passed it on to NissanHQ got told no. spoke to them lots and lots oand lots, they couldn't give a monkies. put me off them for life. can happen with all kinds of manufactures, chesterfield has a pretty identical opinion of jaguar. where as i've found them to be excellent.

i was waiting for the tears...how the new shed was never the same...then i scrolled down and saw the last pic nicely done; i hope you get many years of enjoyment out of the blue zed.

you can get BC coilovers for about half that new i think about £600 maybe less. you might be able to get some part worns R888's if it was me i'd take a trip down to these guys http://www.centergravity.co.uk they are based in warwicksire so not to far to go but well worth it. they do alot for the S2000 boys

i've been hoping we bring it to the yanks as well

i always use HPI as it comes with the gaurentee that it if it turns out to be stolen etc, they pay out for you.

the instructions are pictorial and in german, and some bits are clear others are not. my basic translation of them (after using google translate ) 1. turn blowers on to full, turn heat up to max, set to air recycle, aim at the footwell leave for 10 min 2. put can in the supplied box, put in footwell aiming up the pedal vent, put A/C on, make sure its on recycle, i turned the temp down to min. set can off, shut door, leave for 10. i left it on the foor well setting but i think it showed to put it on windscreen, but don;t do it if it turns recycle off. 3. once can has expired leave engine to run for further 10 min with doors shut and previous settings. 4. open all doors turn engine off and leave for 10 min 5. job done

my experience with nissan has meant i never would or never will give them repeat business again. when i owned the car i made sure all parts and servicing was all done by independents. and after my previous experiences with nissan they'd have to get megan fox to come butter my balls before i ever decide to step back in a nissan dealership.

its common in alot of nissan dealerships, they seem to have an attitude of not actually wanting to sell any cars. glynn hopkins were just as crap in ipswich;

where in the UK are you; if your down in suffolk i'd send you to Team AFM they build and set up race cars if your near london depends where i'd say DMS don't know if abbey to geo. price near me is about £70 price i paid at DMS was £120

if your getting smells try something like liquimoly klima fresh instructions aren't great but the product works well. just did mine and the wifes car with it. my car only had a slight odour on switching off of A/C but the wifes new car was bad. now tons better.

got the silver for the pumle horse as well
