  1. i like the titanium one, not the gt titanium, but the standard titanium, like said above it is nearly £100, but its the only one that i can tell that still has a shift pattern on the top of it.
  2. walk in to a biker bar, stand in the entrance and loudly proclaim that they are all red necks, that you have slept with all their girlfriends and they were all rubbish. then proceed to off them all out for a fight. if that doesn't work, run round and slap them all in the face. now run like hell and hope they don't catch you. alternatively isn't there that elevator ride on top of a very tall tower that shoots you into the air.
  3. i always think that when i reverse park i'm really close to the wall, but when i get out i've got about 2 feet of space. the reason is that the rear view mirror and wing mirrors are marginally magnified. (well the rear is but i think the sides are. also the sides have a 2 part lens on the drivers side to aid in seeing in the blind spot, which also distorts perception. i have very good spacial awareness, i can reverse park a 15 ton trailer and tractor unit round a corner into a grain drop with only half a foot either side. and i find that i park straight but can never judge the front and rear distance.
  4. just like what?
  5. just like what?
  6. i use poor boys leather care
  7. thats a good idea, might get some quotes done locally see what i can find out.
  8. if you get it powder coated would be interested to see what it looks like finished. i fancy having my plenum powder coated red. to go with the grounding kit i have. in the long run i would also look at getting a mandrel bent air intake tube and have that powder coated as well. but not found any mandrel bent intake pipes yet
  9. i like the idea of powder coating, is it possible just to do the plenum or is it permanently attatched to the throttle body.
  10. there always on ebay as well, different finishes, i think there even supplied by envy, but you'd have to check
  11. i can't see it being a major issue, one thing sites like this are good for is showing up major problems with a car, as people only tend to log on with a problem. and with several people on high milage, and the number of memebers on here; a pattern would normally be visible now. this forum seems to know the main issues this car suffers with and most are pretty minor. myself and ekona both used to be on the mr2roc forum where we started to see a mojor pattern of engines blowing due to a dodgy valve seal (there was large debate over the cause, but many believed the pre-cats to be responsible) this is something that toyota have only recently agreed is an issue, before that they denied it. and it was only because of the forums bringing it to the attention of toyota GB. i would think it is nissan doing a live engine check, looking at one that has been used in normal conditions and not just sat on a bench tester.

    before i fully commit to the buy, could you tell me the diameter of the gap where the badge was as i think i might have something to go in the hole. cheers Rich
  13. VBH testdrives the new one and refers to the old one. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=56o9Z7LcieY
  14. i know what you mean about the seat, took a little while for me to adjust mine, still not perfect. i suffer at my hips, and i think it is due to the bolsters, and me having a wider backside. as it pushes my legs in a way that makes my hip ache. although now it is not really noticable. i found i had to raise the seat between the bolsters, not all the way up, but higher. and that helped alot.

    have you got a pic of the oil filler cap, the one with no logo on it. or is it on ebay now. if its the one i think it is i'll take it off your hands.
  16. i must admit i'm in my own little world when i drive, if some one waves at me when they are driving the other way, i somethimes don't notice till the last minute.
  17. cheers fiddy, thats the big thing, i could really do with one to work on, without taking the original out of the car. and then just transplant it in when i'm ready. once i remove mine i'll know what i'm dealing with and then should be able to take appropriate action. just got to get off my arse in order to do it. might have a go this weekend.
  18. +1 on some close up pics, i keep looking at my door handles and think about doing them because they are scratched to buggery.
  19. Is this the replacement for the single mums on the school run. how to guarentee that last parking space outside the school gates
  20. found one looks like the buttons and side come as an all in one unit with the nav
  21. any one got a picture of an 06 nav with no cubby door
  22. if it is one of the ones where they come out all in one, does that mean nissan didn't have a second facia to fit in for the nav. and that the facia was built into the nav unit and just bolted in.
  23. makes perfect sense, the only way to find out is to take it out and see what happens. just not got round to doing it, can't be arsed to dismantle the interior at the mo. just been so cold. i'm guessing its about a 10 min job to take it out.
  24. the box in mine is removable, but i think i will loose the lid if i take it off, as it looks like the lid is attatched to the box, or is this wrong?
  25. right been doing some serching as it seems no one has any answers to my first questions. i remember there being talk that the old 03 cubby only fitted in cars up to 04-05. and that they did not fit in an 2006. mine is an 06, but does not have all the face lift parts in the dash, would it be the same as an 05 but registered later. and when they talk about the 06 cars are they referring to all 06 cars or just those that got the facelift interior. secondly if the 03 cubby doesn't fit then the 06 satnav cubby was one with no lid on it. is it possible to order this part seperatly so i can use that adapter to fit my nav into. my car reg seems to have put me in Zed Limbo, im bot sure if i'm classed as an 06, or a late plated 05, i'm definatly not a facelift car, and now i'm confused what to get. gaurenteed if i order an 03 cubby with retractable lid it won't fit my car, but if i order the other one i bet that won't fit. i don't know which way to go with this especially as no one seems to remember how they fitted there screens into there cubbies.
