  1. had my body kit sprayed the paint code on my car has 4 different shades. all look the same but slight variant of the same colour. my bodyshop had test cards of each paint code options and we spent an hour trying to work out which one was the closest to the original colour. its about 99% perfect there is a faint difference in colour but its not easy to tell. did your bodyshop check testers against the car. mine sprayed twice as the first time the colour came out diffenret to the tester, but it didn't cost me as it was their problem not mine. if they sprayed it wrong its their problem to fix. don't pay for it if it isn't right
  2. search will be your friend, loads on here. but to point you in the right direction CS a trader on here sells EBC yellow stuff pads and for all 4 sides i think its about £100 or up a bit more and there is the ferodo ds2500's also another good pad. as for discs, speak to CS again.
  3. i was just interested to see what peoples opinions on it would be, seeing as its a car forum i thought a discussion on a car part might have been apt. stupid me; should have posted something useful about pants as for engineering degree mine was engineering design and Technology specialising in a wide variety of engineering including Fluid dynamics solid mechanics electronics Materials science and research Manufacturing techniques CAD Design (specifically AutoCAD, Catia V4 and V5) Design TQM project management manufactuing management did lots of other things but can't remember them off hand covered lots of engineering principles but the majority of what i know about cars is self taught and through expereince, reading and being part of forums. anyway back on topic, i can see the point of the ones with the vac lines, and i read the speal on what the science behind them was, but wanted to hear from people who run them to see if there was any real world info behind them.
  4. surprised at that one, your normally full of opinions, just got off a long shift? and actually i'm the teacher with an engineering degree
  5. Ok this is something i've heard mentioned in passing by 3fiddyZ and this is the only one i can find at the moment http://www.car-stuff.com/mmparts/nissan ... pacer.html interested to know how many people are running these, and what peoples thoughts are? i'm struggling to see how increasing the distance the air has to travel will increase poerformance
  6. to be honest i have no idea how it affects the engine, never heard of one before fiddy mentioned it.
  7. I'd be happy for you to take my plenum off when i'm there and you can put it on a stock car and dyno that if it helps would give you and the rest of the forum some comaprisons. is that useful? also any thoughts on the throttle body spacer?
  8. price seems fine to me guys, going to try and fit the HFC's and the new plenum myself. and then get you guys to tune it all together it has curently fitted -Invidia True Dual exhaust -K&N Typhoon Induction kit and will soon have fitted -Kinetix high Flow Cats -Carbonised Carbon Plenum and built in spacer. was thinking about a set of manifolds but its a lot of cost for a good noise.(so these won'y be going on) don't think i've missed anything to put on before the tune up. only thing i can think of is Fiddy mentioned a TB spacer, is this worth it does it make any difference to the cars performance? is it worth fitting at the same time i put the plenum on?
  9. whats an IHOP
  10. got a few bits to fit, just not got round to it.
  11. yep i'm still on here talking to you ugly feckers
  12. o dear lord
  13. noddy car
  14. think all you like; i take it as a complement, that my wife is very attractive at the end of the day, i'm the one who gets to sleep with her
  15. hey thats my privilege
  16. my garage is littered with bits
  17. got no extension bars got some axle stands and some ramps and the scissor jack, got tools but not the extension bars
  18. +2 Happens all the time +3 I used to buy zed stuff all the time when I was bored (and usually pi**ed ) and then sell them on here when I couldn't be arsed to fit them! +4 just bought some HFC's and am easily being persauded into a re map doesn't take much to twist my arm
  19. Probably.... If your paying!! hopefully do it myself before hand, but if i haven't got that far may need to get them to do it first. aiming to do my carbon plenum myself, just got myself some HFC's just not sure i have the tools to undo the bolts from the top.
  20. Why? I would never ever do that to a private seller but a main dealer is a different kettle of fish IMHO. agreed
  21. do you reckon they'd fit a couple of mods for me before hand.
  22. Agreed, and knickers go on last so you can rip them off and still have the awesomeness that is the stockings + belt left on for sneakytimes. ohhhh so agree + a millionty
  23. i like both was just trying to be fair and leave an option for the ladies. you can't say i'm unreasonable then
  24. that tricks easier than shooting fish in a barrel or should that be eyes in a socket?
