  1. I would reject the car now. You will find that the oil level with be at the bottom of the dip stick and the damage will have been done, although perhaps not evident at the moment. Shame on any garage who turns out a car without sufficient oil in it. I would not add any oil as you then may have a problem proving your claim. Do not drive the car. Reject it NOW by phone and email and then in writing.
  2. I run Ecutek on my GT-R. and have 4 maps. Remote tuning is a God send. Speak to the guys you have mentioned in your post. Alex.
  3. As what Dan and Darren has said above. Never quite understood why peeps polish these plenums as they are a mare to keep cosmetically pleasing to the eye..
  4. You have to replace the complete tensioner pulley. Fully working low mileage, noise free pre-owned are in stock and good to go same/next day. Just drop me a PM if I can help further. Alex.
  5. If you reverse the wiring the fans will work in the opposite direction, you will soon know as you will get blown over as you walk past the front of the car. Don't know what you have done wrong. Check that you are getting feed to both by using a meter. Also go back to your supplier and ask for a wiring diagram, however the one provided in this thread is correct providing you understand that it is for a USA LHD. Alex.
  6. Oh Yesssss, providing it is at the right price. Keep in mind that it is an 11 year old car and the guy appears to have spent a fortune putting/keeping it right. Still plenty more to go wrong with it though, but still worth a punt.
  7. Thanks Alex, what would i expect to get from those, 12500 miles Yes, if you are not tracking it. I have done 3000 miles in 18 months with a new R35 and 2000 will have been track miles. I am just about to put on my 5th set of tyres. On my 6th set of pads and 2nd set of rotors. Done 10 engine oil and filter changes and 5 tranny fluid changes and 2 diff. Alex. So a set of tyres and pads is effectively returning 500 miles give or take with track use, thats obscene! Any reason why, weight? Weight obviously does not help, however 500 miles can equate to circa 400 laps depending on the circuit, so do the maths. Yes FUN can be extremely expensive. I was at Knockhill today and completed 140 laps, regularly turning in sub 57 second laps and used 150 litres of fuel in the process. First job tomorrow is car on ramp and a complete after track strip down of the brakes for inspection and replace as required. Also a fluid change for brakes, engine, gearbox and diff.

  9. Tyres: £1200.00 Pads: £700.00 Rotors: £1500.00
  10. As what Dan has said, Fluid has probably boiled or degenerated. New upgraded fluid and a good bleed to get ALL the air out. will fix your issues. Alex.
  11. Indeed it does: I am running AP Racing J Hook 2 piece rotors and the best pad for the job is Carbotech XP12 The tyres to go for are MPSS with Extra Load Walls (Non Run Flat) Plus usual upgrade to lines and fluid. More info on sizes etc on request. Alex.
  12. You will not get a storm white touch up from a NIssan UK dealer. The reason Nissan wont ever be supplying you with a touch up pen is the fact it will never ever match the colour of the car. You get the final colour/effect by applying the correct amount of separate pearl coat over the solid white. Not enough = to light. To much pearl = to dark /creamy. So really you will need 3 pots of paint. solid white, semi transparent pearl, then your clear. This is the route that I went with the R35, however it is difficult to get the match spot on. Alex. .
  13. Lots of options, are you planning to track the car or just road use ?
  14. In stock and good to go same/next day. Just drop me a PM if I can help further. Alex.
  15. Just so that you do not miss the semis, the dates are 31st Jan and 1st Feb 2015. And remember that you may also be drawn together in the next round of the Scottish. Not a good time to be a Rangers fan. C'mon the sheep.
  16. Any Nismo ordered today will be delivered within 4 - 10 weeks depending on colour. I have a 48 hour demo arranged for next week courtesy of Nobles, Edinburgh. Nissan would not give them a showroom car, only a demo which has already been registered by Nobles. This Nismo 370 in silver is available to buy now at £37500.00. Perhaps the guys that have already got there cars have purchased demo/pre-registered cars. Alex:

    Ouch

    All parts are in stock at the moment and panels are all finished in Silver. Alex.
  18. Best to replace the stat. housing gasket every time. Part number: 13050 31U00
  19. Both fans should come on together if you have fitted the complete Mishimoto fan shroud. Check your wiring.
  20. Gearbox drain and level plugs will not work loose if tightened to the correct torque.
