  1. Every now and then! They may not do it directly, but they will have someone to sub it out to. Just let them handle it all, I would.
  2. Tbh I'd just let a NIssan dealership sort it out: If anything goes wrong, they're the biggest organisation you can go to to make a fuss and get it sorted. The insurance companies really don't expect crap from main dealers either, so are less likely to take it IIRC 370Z doors are standard across the range.
  3. Will they fit? Yes, they will. Will they fit without a massive amount of modification to the vehicle and/or the suspension components? No, they will not.
  4. Well yeah, now you say it! I've never seen it used as a term of force though, ever.
  5. "Max Torque: 78kg/m @ 4,500rpm" What kind of crazy-ass way of spelling out the torque figure is that?! It's actually 564 lb/ft, if the website I used is correct. Why not just say that though? No-one has ever used kg/m to refer to torque in cars that I've seen.* Some epic engineering there though, and I love how short the piping to the IC and back is. *Cue people posting up lots of examples...
  6. If you have a smartphone, then for the sake of £5 go and buy an OBDII dongle and a free app and read it properly.
  7. I know, it made me cry just typing it
  8. I did the same, I swapped the OEM for a genuine Nismo one, made a world of difference
  9. Actually, that's a very good question, and it's one I don't have the answer too. What I would say is that I'd be looking at brass or steel over aluminium or plastic, as like for like the former will always be heavier. I have a custom shift knob in the MR2, weighs about 3/4 of a kilo but it's bloody awesome Custom knobs are cheaper than you think, mine was only £35 IIRC from some bloke on eBay.
  10. Word of advice: Buy the heaviest gear knob you can. It's the only place on the car you actively want to add weight, makes the shift so much more positive
  11. Is the answer here not just to buy two homes? One main residence, then one smaller getaway place? Or two identical but very different properties? Or just sod off for a whole year on a round the world cruise, and then worry about it when you get back? That's what I'd do.
  12. Renovo is the best stuff you'll get your hands on, and it's now cheaper than the AG stuff too so a no-brainer.
  13. Let me have a chat with the missus tonight, this might actually be worth looking into for us.
  14. STOP IT I DON'T HAVE ROOM FOR ANY MORE CARS FFS
  15. Fanks!
  16. Exactly why she needs to show us some flange But yeah, I'm just glad Jo has zero interest in watching this so I don't need to come up with a rubbish excuse.
  17. I want famous person lady garden guaranteed if I'm going to be made to sit through a girly film though
  18. That's great, but unless you're a dealer too then it was NOT a trade sale, regardless of what they say. Your rights under the SOGA are unaffected by their 'trade sale' shenanigans. Y'know, just in case you do need to go back to them for anything. Welcome along
  19. But does it show lady garden?
  20. It's an Americanism, so barely acceptable. Referring to gotten, sorry. Hugh has kindly pointed it out to me via PM, but I've left it up to see how quickly someone else finds it.
  21. That sounds as obnoxious as the 'music' used in the video.
  22. Is it forgetting a question mark at the end of a question?
  23. It's a fair price I think, I just don't have use for them right now. DT are good, just as long as you remember to use your club discount.
  24. I like to think of it as a talent.
