    GT Edition

    GT Edition

    Your reasoning is precisely why I opted for the Stillen -it dosen't upset the neighbours or the ear drums when you don't want it to. Having just had the use of a 370 with the standard system, even my wife said how poor it sounded after mine
  4. Very sad news
  5. Ebized

    New tyres

    Typical. Ever since I had the Vreds and having now put on a few hundred miles on them it hasn't rained to see what they are like in the wet. And the car is in this week for some cosmetic work so updates on both to follow
  6. Hi Stan - good to hear all is well with the family and fleet Stanski sensible when it comes to cars - pull the other one
  7. Tell them you can He will have them and if gets the order early enough a good chance the garage will have them the next day
  8. I hope not, knowing where the car is supposed to be Quite amusing really - first time I have seen another white 370 coupe on the road and there I am in another 370
  9. Not a nice experience to be stopped but at least they were reasonable and sent you on your way But a bit anoying if the system doesnn't get updated: As the next time it might be case of "OK so clear on that - lets see what else we can find", if they are on number crunching targets
  10. Welcome to the forum and a nice ZED you have there
  11. Parked here - co-incidence: Pic taken May 2011 of convoy to Wales. Passed you in a black 370 and hooted

    Amuse Skirts

    They look good and should certainly help to address the stone chip issue the 370 has with OEM skirts.
  13. Yes - some cosmetic treatment - to be revealed. Not as such. I had been asked by Motorline to try their GT Edition demonstrator and let them know how I feel it compares to GUNs, so having dropped mine off today for its little treat at a bodyshop near to Motorline TW, and with the Kent/Sussex drive that starts relatively near my neck of the woods and finishes at Motorline, it all fell into place very nicely First impressions: Get to know how the auto works best. Adjust to the quietness, although I have to say on the motorway the Bridgestones are certainly more noisy than the Sessantas I have had fitted to GUNs The GT Edition (1500 miles) certainly feels taughter compared to GUNs, as expected. Especially with 13k miles on the clock and a fair amount of that being done in Wales and Scotland. Learn how the connect premium works - love the rear camera - a little test, only using the screen: Rear view some 3 feet away from the kerb: As close as I dared to the kerb: The actual distance away:
  14. Now you see it was that red mist that caused the shunt I'm a bit particular about whose rear end I get up close and personal with
  15. Hadn't seen that before - brilliant
  16. Whats the paint code on the label in the door shut
  17. Nice to see how this compares to GUNs Oh and, must be getting old
  18. Make the most of the dream being in front Dave
  19. I take the opportunity after washing/drying the car to take it for the spin to clear the excess water and discs and usually that will be via the nearest Tesco garage to top up with monmentum. Only use the 95 when locations (Scotland mainly) mean no higher rating is available - done that with all 3 ZEDs Graham - the Horsham Tesco's does not have that lip bashing issue, and at least its a decent part of the A24 from you to
  20. I want to say, why not have him on your office desk, but guess I better give me a for having such a thought
  21. airless, hairless, whatever But I note the comments come from short arses
  22. that would be nearly 18" then ..... but there's still nothing to see out of the back window from this low down - whats the weather like up there ?? airless
  23. Handbook says: FUEL RECOMMENDATION Use unleaded premium gasoline with an octane rating of at least 91 AKI (Anti-Knock Index) number (Research octane number 96). If premium gasoline is not available, unleaded regular gasoline with an octane rating of 87 AKI number (Research octane number 91) may be temporarily used, but only under the following precautions: Have the fuel tank filled only partially with unleaded regular gasoline, and fill up with unleaded premium gasoline as soon as possible. Avoid full throttle driving and abrupt acceleration. However, for maximum vehicle performance, the use of unleaded premium gasoline is recommended. CAUTION Using a fuel other than that specified could adversely affect the emission control system, and may also affect the warranty coverage and Octane rating tips Using unleaded gasoline with an octane rating lower than recommended can cause persistent, heavy spark knock. (Spark knock is a metallic rapping noise.) If severe, this can lead to engine damage. If you detect a persistent heavy spark knock even when using gasoline of the above stated octane rating, or if you hear steady spark knock while holding a steady speed on level roads, have your dealer correct the condition. Failure to correct the condition is misuse of the vehicle, for which NISSAN is not responsible. Incorrect ignition timing will result in knocking, after-run or overheating. This in turn may cause excessive fuel consumption or damage to the engine. If any of the above symptoms are encountered, have your vehicle checked at a NISSAN dealer or other competent service facility. However, now and then you may notice light spark knock for a short time while accelerating or driving up hills. This is no cause for concern, because you get the greatest fuel benefit when there is light spark knock for a short time under heavy engine load. So using 95 regularly is not recommended but whether 1 octane lower than recommended is responsible for blown engines ............ That said, we are certainly hearing about more engine failures as mileages creep up
  24. Its a better investment than a wedding and will cost you a lot less in the long run... Cant argue with that So when you breaking the news to Amanda
  25. A clear sticky roundel on the dial in your line of sight to diffuse the light intensity...... Or grow a bit as at 6' 2" I don't have that problem but I could do with your height to see out the rear window properly
