Any sensible price gate installers in Derbyshire?
Ebized replied to Chesterfield's topic in Off Topic Discussion
Just get your butler to open and close the gates and save all the hassle -
I've asked the service manager at Motorline Nissan Tunbridge Wells if it is a know issue with the 370's. The answer is no but hey have had a couple on the GTR's which were resolved by changing the tilt sensors. Not sure where you are but I'm sure Ian Fraser at Motorline would help confirm and resolve the issue if you can get there. Mention the forum and my name - hopefully a free check might be be on offer

You sure this is not cold related before the tyres have warmed up? Something that surprised me during the first winter with the 370 after the previous 350's that were 'tyre noise-free' in the cold. Yes, as others have said the suspension set-up at the front of the 370 does seem to provoke what I would describe as the tyres scrubbing on full lock when cold. This seems to be a feature related to the 'summer tyres' (RE050A's) fitted, but I have to say that since I have had the Sessantas fitted (also described as summer tyres) they seem to have eliminated that scrubbing type noise. If you still get the noise in warmer weather or when the tyres have warmed up, then clearly something else is going on, that personally I have not experienced. Oh, I should add I have an extre degree of toe-in front and rear that has certainly improved the turn-in over standard and I had that done before the tyres were changed

Only one key? Should have two. Maybe the battery in the key has died?

Welcome to the forum and a really great introduction Now given your location......guess you might know what I am going to say (my sig gives the game away ) Oh, and watch out for your nearby neighbour as he does have a soft spot for Sunset 350's

Given the recent hype about Nismo involvement, why oh why no Nismo model here. I like the new wheels and looks as though red calipers being adopted - they look very nice. Front end though is far too 'tame' - again the Nismo treatment (or similar ) is needed. And no mention of any exhaust changes: NISSAN - IT IS A SPORTS CAR - MAKE IT SOUND LIKE ONE Hope the message gets through

Just shows what winter tyres can do, but a bit sad they give the impression at the beginning and the end that the car would be on inters Good sideways fun though

DE engine (in my 2006 'facelift' ZED) HR engine - as fitted to my 370 but externally looks the same as fitted to 2007+ ZEDS
-
Presume you mean a DE engined 'facelift' as opposed to an HR engined ZED, given the change over in 2007? For example, a DE engined car bonnet will not fit a HR engined version

new guy saying hello and looking for help

You ought to get an independent ZED specialist to check out just what it is first. If you post up the area where are based (most put it their avatars) we can point you in the right direction and may well save you money on buying what turns out to be un-needed parts -
One to remember for te next tyre thread

You should have got some of those ying yang "£100 a set" specials, rather than those RE070s..... Cor, you like to live dangerously saying that to Ekona - careful rabbit, or you could well end up in the pot.

The pics would be good though

She was just mesmerized by your rear end But best action on your part to avoid her getting too close and personal

If you really have to......... lots of weight in the boot, winter tyres (or snow socks if you don't mind the hassle of putting them on/off as they will disintegrate quickly when not on snow). Pull away in 2nd gear stay off the foot brake and always use the gears to slow you. Use the handbrake (quickly on and off) going downhill on ice which should be as slow as possible, so you can still steer the car. Aim for fresh snow if you do start to slide (if you can) to increase grip/traction which is usually better than staying on compacted snow/ice which is more likely to increase the car's momentum downhill. But best of all don't use it 'cos if you are fortunate enough to get away without an incident, chances are some other idiot out there will end up using your motor as a buffer

Puts Keyser to shame, even if it took a lot more time That is seriously impressive and even down to manfacturing his own wheels What a talented guy

A man goes into the doctors feeling a little ill The doctor checks him over and says, 'Sorry, I have some bad news, you have "Yellow 24", a really nasty virus. It's called Yellow 24 because it turns your blood yellow and you usually only have 24 hours to live. There's no known cure so just go home and enjoy your final precious moments on earth.' So he trudges home to his wife and breaks the news. Distraught, she asks him to go to the bingo with her that evening as he's never been there with her before. They arrive at the bingo and with his first card he gets four corners and wins $35. Then, with the same card, he gets a line and wins $320 Then he gets the full house and wins $1000. Then the National Game comes up and he wins that too getting $380,000. The bingo caller gets him up on stage and says, 'Son, I've been here 20 years and I've never seen anyone win four corners, a line, the full-house and the national game on the same card. You must be the luckiest man on Earth!' 'Lucky?' he screamed. 'Lucky? I'll have you know I've got Yellow 24.' 'F*** me,' says the bingo caller. 'You've won the meat raffle as well!!
