  1. Check that the metal dust cover/shield is not interfering with the rotor and that no foreign debris has got into the brake pads.
  2. For this exercise just make sure that all 40 nuts are tight.
  3. It should last many years mate. Just make sure that the surface is dry, and is flake and grease free. I have some other stuff in the shop that we use on smaller items which might be more suitable for your cause, it is in aerosol format so no compressor or gun required, so produces a much finer spray. Let me check out the branding when I am next over at the shop and I will grab an image for you.
  4. Remember the spacer nuts as well. I am assuming that you have fitted this type of spacer:
  5. These sort of spray on rust proofing products work well: https://www.zoro.co.uk/shop/automotive/cleaners-and-polish/tsh010-black-tetrosyl-tetraschutz-shutz-body-rust-protector-1ltr/p/ZT1036141X?utm_campaign=pla-Automotive+-+&utm_source=google&utm_medium=shopping-pla&utm_keyword=ZT1036141X&istCompanyId=6aa6787b-063e-4414-802d-129f235df603&istItemId=wtqilpqpap&istBid=tztx&gclid=Cj0KCQjwn-bWBRDGARIsAPS1svuqXSHs3uJl9nPocmHPTBjAHydxGRsXuaupGFm6ucIgMxocsqHP_ikaAsB9EALw_wcB
  6. From Autocodes: This code is usually triggered when a not registered or damaged key is used to start the engine. When the starting operation is carried out five or more times consecutively with the same unregistered key, the system will lock. If the problem occurs try disconnecting the car battery for about 30 minutes and then try starting the engine with a known registered key. If the problem persists you have to have the dealer erase the code and reprogram the keys again.
  7. The input shaft front bearings tend to be noisy, and unless excessively worn I would leave well alone.
  8. Nah, A large potato works best.
  9. to the forum. I was up in Aberdeen today. In before the lock down.
  10. You never rammed the wet wipes up their exhaust, did you? Or wrapped them round there door handles.
  11. The early ones required wiring, however, the later ones which I hope you have bought will be plug and play.
  12. The full story is now beginning to emerge. Still the same suggestions as before, however in a different order: (1)Driving tuition may be a very good plan. These guys are good: http://catdrivertraining.co.uk/ (2)Carry out a full 4 wheel geometry check and adjust to suit your needs. (3)Replace your budget tyres with a premium brand if you are still having issues.
  13. Looks like you are sorted Kieran:

    B17 Bonnet

    B17 for DE and HR are in stock but unfortunately collection only I am afraid.
  15. Plenty pre owned Brembo rotors are in stock. Just drop me a pm if I can help further.
  16. Nissan CS in the UK can sometimes find it very difficult to control their dealerships. They certainly do not have any control over what prices they charge. I have an ongoing issue with a NHPC (Macklins Glasgow) regarding issues with an R35 GT-R where the dealership will not take my calls or answer my emails. I opened a case with CS and they have had the same issues with the dealership where they are not taking the calls or replying to there emails. and the CS team are visiting the dealership this week unannounced. That should be fun.
  17. Doesn't even need to be Nissan parts as long as they are oem quality or better, however for peace of mind remember and keep all receipts.
  18. You have PM I will take them. 1st dibs please. Alex.
  19. Plenty in stock, just drop me a PM with your year and model if you want me to help further. Alex.
  20. All in stock at the moment, Just drop me a PM if I can help further. Alex.
  21. No point in splashing the cash on proposed suspension upgrades until you get rid of the ditch finders. Perhaps you may find that the handling characteristics of the car will become acceptable to you once you have done this without any unnecessary expense. Also driving tuition may be a very good plan. These guys are good: http://catdrivertraining.co.uk/ If after that and you are still looking for improvement then the items listed below would help. The list is not exhaustive, but it is a starting point after you have addressed the tyre issue. Reduce the weight of car: Reduce the unsprung weight. Fit fully adjustable coilovers: Fit adjustable geometry arms: Fit suitable adjustable sway bars: Fit adjustable drop links: Replace bushings as required: Carry out a full 4 wheel geometry check and adjust to suit your needs.
