  1. Just to add what has been said before. I contacted Chris Knott insurance yesterday to get quotes for 3 vehicles. 10 years NCD on each vehicle: No convictions: No Claims in the past 33 years: Decent post code with zero crime rate. Spoke to a polite, informed female member of staff. Comments: We do not offer multi car insurance but we offer a discount on additional vehicles. Took all the details, and then asked, what have you been quoted else where? I said I have not got my renewals in as yet, but I can quote you last years premiums, which I did. She said that she could not get close to those premiums and preferred not to quote.and best to stay with my existing insurer. After a bit of assertiveness I managed to squeeze an indication of the premiums which were double what I am paying at present. Can't say it was a total wasted exercise as I discovered that my existing insurer is either very competitive or Chris Knott are very expensive. Jury is still out, however I am leaning towards the latter. Just my experience with Chris Knott Insurers which may help others.
  2. Also with the uprev you have the option to switch off the rear sensors.
  3. Best with genuine Nissan oem chain, tensioner and slipper stuff for this job. Most of the online stuff is made of chocolate.
  4. Gabor, PM received and replied to. The tubes are fairly easy to remove, however you will damage them in the process. They are a tight fit in the head and also will have had a coat of locking sealant on assembly. They are only pressed into the head by 20mm. Grab the tube with a set of mole grips and move it in a circular motion to break the seal. It does not matter if you butcher the old tube as it will compress with the use of the grips. Just keep turning the tube back and forth whilst working it upwards. Make sure that you keep it square and a slight tap on the mole grips with a small hammer will help it on its way. Once you have done the first one, you will wonder what all the fuss was about and the remaining 5 will be child's play. Alex.
  5. Depending on the brand of spacer you are fitting you may find that you will have to remove the wheel to recheck the torque of the spacer nuts. Torque settings will also depend on what brand of spacer you are fitting, so best talk to your supplier, however your numbers will not be far off.
  6. Cart before the horse springs to mind. What are the suppliers saying ? It is bad enough that you are having to wait, however it may be a far bigger issue when you find that it is a poor fit. May sound a bit cynical and harsh, however all very true.
  7. No damage, Pictures below It is metallic Ebisu black £50.00 is the price of the part. Sorry, no packaging for this item, so collection only.
  8. Preowned and £50.00 collected.
  9. These are your inlet and exhaust cam position sensors. 2 x inlet and 2 x exhaust.
  10. 350Z HR black boot lid (complete) in stock, however, collection only I am afraid from PH2 6EZ Or arrange your own Courier. Alex.
  11. Providing there was not any interference and the hose was not rubbing then they are talking bull sh#t.
  12. Changed hundreds of those over the years and when a removal tool was not to hand I used thick water pump grease which works a treat.
  13. I have 8 pin connectors in stock if required. Just drop me a pm if I can help you further. Alex.
  14. http://www.torquebrakefluid.com/compare_torque_rt700_to_other_brake_fluids.html http://www.ferodoracing.com/products/car-racing/racing-brake-pads/ds3000/
  15. Only if an HR. Thought an 07 would have to be, please do correct me if I'm wrong! Could be a DE rev up or an HR. .
  16. Castrol SRF is the choice of the informed, but as Snjur says, expensive, however less fluid changes, so cost effective and it does what it says on the tin.
