  1. Just spottedthis on US ebay ..interesting ? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... Track=true
  2. cant do that ,she,s the only one with a proper job!
  3. Thanks for thinking about me Val , but spent up at present ..
  4. no difference in running costs whatsoever,probably cheaper as you wont feel obligated to keep running back to a main dealer for overpriced lack lustre service either All parts are the same.(except brakes if you get a non brembo model )., my advice with having a JDM myself is to buy one that is actually in the country that you can view, or even better one that someone has used in the country a while and it will probably have some nice bits on !!
  5. oooo look @ him, all flashy! nice one! wish ours did that You have to buy one of these "cheap" imports to get all these features LOL
  6. Oh yes forgot to mention that mine was Yellow to start off with , just watch the strength of that TRF
  7. get some traffic film remover (TRF ) from a car valet supplier and make a weak solution spray it all over the engine a blast it off with a pressure cleaner , will come up like a new pin, try and avoid electrical connections etc., and if you have an aftermarket air filter cover it with a plastic bag.. results here http://photobucket.com/albums/y119/lomo ... 010007.jpg
  8. Mine folds in automatically when locking the doors with remote fob., but mines a JDM.., also dips down automatically to view rear wheels when reverse is engaged
  9. I saw this and thought the same? only thing I can think of is if you have a blank cut to your key form then reprogramme this fob to your car.and glue it to fresh cut key .. Best just to get a spare from a dealer
  10. yes I,m going to make it. just pm,d Chesterfield to see if he wants to meet up somewhere... ps whats been going on with website again ?
  11. Yes quite agree , but if they were all efficient it wouldnt make good TV, I like car crash TV like ever one else , the bigger the **** ups the more I like it
  12. Hmm, interesting idea - I'll give it a go What I,d do ;now I know how easy it is to remove speedo ,is to whip the bulb out and put a dash of black paint on it to tone it down slightly
  13. Thanks again , job for the weekend I think !
  14. Thanks for all the info teddyonholiday , Just been browsing an American 350Z site and the list of problems that people are having with these electric windows is outstandingly bad ! I,d have thought with how long electric windows have been around a Major manufacturer could get the basic design correct on such a simple feature... One Yank went into his dealer and virtually every Z in stock had a problem with the window drop feature on new and used vehicles ! Amazing Most people posting on this site had had a couple of window motors fitted.. Their not cheap either ..but looks if the reset feature doesnt cure mine., a new motor is the only option
  15. Got everything OK except last sentece " do not operate door switch turning on "
  16. Just realised today that my passenger side window doesnt drop down as much as the drivers side it misses the door frame, but only by a couple of mm,s..The drivers side seems to have approx double the clearance.. Anyone know a cure for this ? before I start ripping the door cards of to have a look If a apply just slight pressure with one finger to top of the passenger window when door is open it will drop down to the correct height,but its a bit of a pain to keep doing this.. Given the window plenty of exercise and silicone sray to rubbers and seals all to no avail..
  17. And dont forget the tyre noise from them as well
  18. mine with the Bridges on just let go all the time in the DRY . I would class them as a very dangerous tyre ,I,m suprised Nissan has not had a few claims against them ,especially in the States
  19. Finally got round to putting the other set of wheels on with my new Falkens I cant believe its the same car , all that horrible tyre noise gone and after just a short blast I can tell they grip much better than the Bridgestones (yes even though their new and not scrubbed )
  20. Here a photo of it installed ,nothing to do at work today ,so got this fitted along with the other wheels with new Falken tyres on..I dont recommend fitting a different gear knob unless you have access to some good quality mole grips and a pipe spanner, its really tight to get the original item off !! Took it for a quick spin and I must say it feels really nice change. with the shorter throw,and feels better for me with the lower position of the knob...may not suit everyone but I,m pleased..it will stop on
