  1. dclass has to be one of the fav's?
  2. welcome but .....
  3. What a shame .... so sorry to see this. Want to personally thank Phil and Andrew for putting up with my daft questions and providing a brilliant service. Many thanks guys and good luck in the future. Dan
  4. Both sides, the approx 4" long hard pipe that sits between the caliper and the flexi hose. Cheers Dan
  5. First thing to identify .... If its a JDM they have a very small battery which are prone to drain, especially if its a few years old and getting punished in the cold weather. Removing the battery is very easy.... few trim panels held in with plastic clips. Once off, two battery clamps on each terminal and then two bolts on the battery clamp. Best thing to do it identify if the battery is at fault, if so replace the battery. (Places like halfords can perform a battery check Free of Charge) If the battery is good... you need to source the drain - easier said than done
  6. Brilliant ..... Bouncing off the limiter is their favourite game
  7. Slightly off topic, but can anyone recommend a track day ... not interested in those ones where you you do about 4 laps then ride shotgun with someone.

    Mag Photoshoot!

    I got from from America, believe its from a lexus, fits a treat and Im convince it works better than OEM i'll try and dig the link out.
  9. Yeah i know the feeling think we have got a car that looks like something out of fast and the furious, Im sure some people think they are vin diesel ........ Oh wait
  10. needs spacers and lowering - sorry before every else did .... stubby not required though
  11. There should be a boot realise on the underside of the rear strutbrace
  12. UK or JDM?
  13. Location: Tokyo, Japan & Norfolk ,United Kingdom The second location somewhat takes the exotic-ness off the car!
  14. try putting a gearbox additive in, molyslip or the like. Changing th box woul be about same price as replacing the clutch, just buying a box would be fairly expensive
  15. You got the simple things like oil coolers, on previous cars they made a huge difference
  16. Yup you will need .... 4 Brembo Calipers 4 Brembo specific Hoses Full set of brembo pads Full set of discs rear Caliper Bolts. I am currently in the process of doing this

    I was gonna say ur petrol cap is on the wrong side on 2nd pic from the end!
  18. Its those 32gb SD cards that are crazy!
  19. 25 for bonnet struts I believe
  20. A touch different
  21. Right ... This is a veilside V3 spoiler that was fitted to my car. (RRP 330 w/O POSTAGE and this is in the Nemisis Sale) It has been removed by my bodyshop in a very sympathic manor so it in good condition. It is currently sprayed in Azure Blue with the true carbon fibre blade (not a wrap) Even comes with the metal Veilside badge, (i believe these are about 80 quid new on there own) Im not out to make any profit just really to create a bit of space so I am very much open to what some would call silly offers. Failing money I am after a few parts so we can also work on exchange. Dont have pictures of the specific spoiler but no doubt someone could provide. Many Thanks Dan
  22. Will work but only certain units work. I know xtrail ones work, I believe Navera and Patrol ones have been seen to work. I tried a primera one to no avail so its a bit hit and miss really. Check the guides second as there is a piece about this in there.
  23. What are the results of the sway bars? I.e what affect does it have on the car?
  24. Wen I worked at halfords we used to supply the bulbs etc for the police. A t5 turned up for a new headlight bulb. Once they popped the bonnet we all went for a nose ... this thing was braced up to the heavens dread to think what else was done. Isnt there a specific v5 classification for ex police vehicles that have been tuned up? We used to have a focus RS round our way that had been significantly fettled with.
  25. I wouldnt bother going to a dealer to buy a battery, most automotive dealers will be able to provide you with one. You will have to change both battery clamps as the terminals are much bigger which is a very easy job. It may be worthwhile getting a nice set of OEM clamps and picking up a battery from your local parts centre. Bearing in mind if there is a drain on the battery present this will not cure it. I would start by performing some battery checks to check the condition of the battery, Halfords etc and they can also perform an alternator check.
