Welcome mate.

viewforum.php?f=106

Dont worry about that, Im going to be getting a garage built and 2 poster is at the top of the list but for now its outside where its cold Marzman do you have some normal plastic ones? The shape of them looks like the front bumper will scrape? No mate i've got some old school iron ramps but my Nismo kit scrapes them. WTF is that!! I've never seen anything like that before?!

Fair one. Makes a huge difference working under ramps too - so much better than stands. I'll keep my eye on this thread as my zed wont go on the ramps i have...

That thing is ace!!!!

Just drive onto a piece of wood - that allows me to get my jack under

Was it a ticket only event or a freebee? Freebie

Great pics buddy... Correct - he was driving the MP4-23 from 2008. I spent the day there today - i had a great time (Thanks Mike for making me aware of this!) I was stood waiting at the trackside on deansgate for 2.5 hours before there was any action but it was worth the wait... The MP4-12C looked good (although quiet), but the F1 car was incredible! As mentioned, the noise is just unreal.. it just screams it's so high pitched! Absolutely brilliant. The smell - just brilliant I was also impressed by the crowd... the announcer reckoned there were 20k people there today and i can believe it - and the reception Jenson got was excellent... i didnt think people would think Jensen was that much of a star, but he was getting huge support. It was a good atmosphere. Lastly, i made it into the Vodafone VIP zone (anyone could go in there), and i had a go on the Pit-Stop challange. Me and 2 strangers had to change a wheel... you had a few practices and then they timed you. I was with 2 strangers (a chinese guy and a spaniard who looked like Alonso) and i had the best job of operating the wheel gun. Until we went on the fastest time of the day had been 2.63 seconds, and then they timed us and we got 2.18!! The announcer who was commentating on Jenson all day said we were the fastest time of the weekend so far, so if no one beat our time i think we'll be winning some merchandise... so will be watching the phone this week... Here's a compilation of clips i took (really good at 2:25) and some pics. Video quality seems shite though, but youtube is still processing it so it may improve.

Good man

CS in Leicester arent too far from you... they are a trader on here and are very highly recommended (i.e. worth the trip).

News to me... i didnt know US zeds could do this...!

Here's mine...

Mine was factory fitted and there is about an inch between the tips and the boot! Must be the difference between model years and possibly JDM vs UK.

My Nismo spoiler was factory fitted and has foam under the tips...

Feel any gains from the plenum spacer buster?

Couldnt tell you im afraid... if you search for Nurrish Sat Nav on here - thats what i have. It was already in my car when i bought it, i just ended up removing/refitting it as i broke it - and i never measured it...

You'll need to remove the PCB and screen from the housing it comes in. Then put double sided tape around the inside of the cubby, and attach the screen to that. Then mount the PCB onto the back of that screen, or make a bracket for it etc... However please be aware - the device in the ebay link i provided - i dont know if thats the right one to use... you should measure the cubby size to see what screen size you need...

Never mind, just googled it: http://www.mclaren.com/page/vodafone-vi ... son-button

bump, this weekend Anymore info on this??? Sounds very interesting

It would be a case of completely dismantling it and sticking the screen behind the cubby, and mounting the circuit board behind that. Then you'd need to butcher the power lead and wire that into the +/- of the stereo. 3 hours work if you know what you're doing... (and a roll of double sided tape!) Mine looked like this:

You're the man Never pressed that button before - i must have knocked it whilst fitting the sat nav today...

Have you thought about something like this? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-7-Car-GPS ... 2eb583839f This is basically what a Nurrish sat-nav is... buy it, dismantle it, and fit it into your cubby. Looks a bit scary when you see it mounted behnd your dash with exposed circuitboards etc, but it looks OEM.

So my JDM has the tilting mirrors option where you put it into reverse and the mirrors tint downwards so you can see your wheels (very useful for my Volks ) About 3 months ago they stopped auto-tilting and i had no idea why. However today i re-fitted my Nurrish Sat-Nav which i removed (probably 3 months ago!) as i thought i'd broken it. But after refiitting it today they suddently started auto-tilting again!! So it would appear that they are linked to the Sat-Nav which obviously isnt the case... i must have disturbed a connection somewhere... i was just wondering what that connection was

This Apple fanboy / anti-Apple shite really gets on my nerves (not this thread, i mean it's everywhere). I HATE apple products... i hate style over substance, i detest iTunes (worst application on the planet), and i never owned an apple product UNTIL i got an iPhone 3GS. 2 years on and i've still got it. I still hate apple, i still hate iTunes, but it is the best gadget/phone/device i've ever owned. The user interface is so slick and easy to use... i even enjoy adding contacts to my phone is so easy and intuitive. From day 1 you know how to do everything on the phone, it's been designed so well. Now compare that to the Android phones that my work mates / fiance have and the UI is so clunky and cumbersome, and un-intuitive, and these are brand new Everyone keeps saying they're better because they have more features and they're not made by apple - but i just dont agree.
