    whats the difference between test pipes and decat pipes or are they the same ? why are they called test pipes ?
  8. £3.13 from nissan, took my reg to get the correct batch no halfords didnt list gunmental
  9. mine catches on the joint/bracket on the Y pipe
  10. mine does this, if you drive in but turn in really late you alter the length of the car so its lowest point is higher, same when reversing dont drive straight, turn as you are exiting works for me, otherwise the exhaust scrapes everytime (not a nice sound) hth
  11. temper orange is a new 07 colour
  12. congrats on the new motor the lowest part of the car is the exhaust, mine catches if i dont get the angle just right going on to my driveway
  13. http://www.elitecarcare.co.uk/ sell it and its readily available on ebay, you can also buy super snow foam but i suggest you read up about it before you buy it as its useless without the right equipment oh yeah shampoo wise i rate Poorboys Super Slick & Suds, leaves a nice shine
  14. Nothing was said about it being a replacement for shampoo I only said I like to be able to see each panel, and my only other comments were about pressure washers and that it's a good start to strip everything off the paintwork. Snowfoam itself won't remove stuck on dirt, mitt work and rinsing will so you have used snowfoam ? and as i said you dont use snowfoam on its own, you use it with shampoo, this allows the shampoo to dwell on the dirt helping it dissolve so it can be washed off, its very simple the only thing it gets off the paintwork is dirt, you make it sound like paint stripper its used as pre wash really - snowfoam - mitt 2 bucket wash
  15. he speaks the truth !

    had a supersprint decat on my previous car, sounded much nicer and with the xxl throttle body it felt quicker but it was a pia swopping every mot

  18. hate to say it but i totally agree, my bro had a tt supra
  19. if they wont replace it and fob you off i would get some gliptone on them to feed them before the cracks become splits
  20. very very tempted by this, think i'll wait til the wales run and hopefully someone going will have one i can hear properly, bloody useless youtube moan slow server moan takes a week to load moan
  21. i would clay bar, tfr on the front , clearkote vanilla moose glaze and a decent wax like collonite, dodo juice, swissol love the wheels and the spoiler
  22. hmm this all seems slightly misleading to me snowfoam is not a replacement for shampoo, snowfoam can be used on its own but i dont know anyone who does use it that way it is made to work in conjunction with the shampoo allowing the shampoo to sit on the car and give better cleaning capabilities - it breaks down the dirt and allows it to slide off the car rather than be dragged around with a sponge yes it can be applied with a pressure washer but it can also be applied with a gilmour, it comes out like shaving foam so it wont cause any damage to the paint work, the pressure is used to agitate the snowfoam and create the foam effect, yes you can remove it with a pressure washer but you can just as easily use a garden hose the snowfoam is mixed with shampoo and warm water in the container it wont strip wax ! if you want to do that use fairy liquid to wash your car (seriously) the snowfoam method is very handy during winter with the amount of grime that sticks to your car, its much better to remove it without touching it and creating swirls and scratches like i said do a search on detailing world - these guys know their stuff !
  23. i use snowfoam with an AB lance and then pressure wash for a touchless wash when i'm stuck for time, otherwise i follow the foam with Poorboy's Super Slick and Wax
  24. Who me???? Gixxer: Pretty sure the zorsts from adam are $1365 including shipping and then plus whatever tax your stung for and at the current dollar exchange rate thats like ... ehm ... virtually for free i wish ! oddly enough i think it works out as £666
