  1. Glad you got sorted it mate. Hope you get many more years service out of it.
  2. Always liked the Nismo graphic too. A nice subtle touch
  3. I'm done now last day was today. Back on Jan the 2nd! Awesome!
  4. Lol awesome!
  5. Meh, not a fan of Porsches either. 1) everyone has one. 2) they all look incredibly similar. 3) they just look too 'normal' If I could afford one I'd buy lots of other things before a Porsche. I do think the 911 sounds great though.
  6. Just goes to show though the zed isn't bad on juice on a run. My GF's 1.2 106 would only manage 45 mpg on the motorway. So not bad at all. I'd rather take the zed lol.
  7. SteveW

    W brace

    Some of mine were seized last time it came off and snap so be careful
  8. Lol, not long now
  9. For them to work the bottle needs to be above the level required and the lights need to be on dipped or main beam. They won't work if only on sidelights. Then you either press the button or pull the stalk so the washer jets spray. Either method should activate the headlight washers.
  10. It's worth noting they only work when there is enough fluid in the washer bottle. They stop working before the windscreen washer jets do I think it's about 1/3rd full. Make sure you fill it right up to test them. The button will only work when your headlights are on dipped on main beam. It's not a toggle button either it's a press one.
  11. Mine is the same gone from average of 21mpg per tank to about 18 mpg. Mostly caused by waiting for the car to defrost in the morning. I've also noticed my car is idling a bit higher when the engines warm circa 1000rpm instead of usual 750rpm.
  12. Gutted! I saw one mega cheap a few weeks back and thought the Weldina was a cheap 'Nismo' copy. I've been a member long enough to know better.
  13. Had a bike in the back there is a pic floating round in another thread somewhere. Also had 4 wheels with tyres, a tool box, Jack, jack stands and helmet.
  14. Lol
  15. Bit of an odd one this but recently the front end has developed a single clunk noise when sometimes turning full lock and close to full lock at slow speeds. For example pulling out of a parking space or when I get to work I'll drive into one space then reverse back into the one opposite. As you straighten the wheels to reverse the clunk occasionally rears its head. It can be felt through the steering wheel. Any thoughts? Also the rear passenger side has developed a hollow sounding clunk on rough surfaces. I'm guessing a bush? Which would be the prime candidates? Thanks Steve
  16. Not sure mate but I wouldn't have thought much. It's only 6 nuts to undo. Labour maybe £30 plus new gaskets.
  17. If the bolts come undone yes. If not prepare for lots of anger, swearing and ultimately taking an angle grinder to it all. Make sure you use decent six sided sockets on the nuts to prevent rounding.
  18. Look great. I'd get some Nismo style N1 spats for the rear bumper and colour code them and the steps. Just my opinion.
  19. No mate it cleared the diff cooling fins no problem but I had to remove the plastic cover sadly. I'll knock something up if I need to or trim the plastic to fit. Well happy with it its so quiet compared to the k1 can have a conversation now without shouting lol. Just miss the K1's growl when the right foot gets heavy.
  20. Yes it should be fairly straight forward. Just take your time to get it spot on. As said either body tape or tiger seal on the centre section and then wheel arch bolts on ends. Get some big washers to spread the bolt load and don't over tighten them so the lip doesn't crack.
  21. Yes it's a custom one. It's Evilscorp's old one before he got the DC Sports system. I've been considering changing the K1 for ages but couldn't decide if I wanted a quieter exhaust and also didn't want to spend £400+to find out. However this came up a few months back at a price I was willing to take a punt on just needed some welding. One thing I have noticed is how much quieter I can have the stereo now and still be able to here it! Lol
  22. ^^^ lol
  23. Agree SMD the rear plate border is too short and looks a tit! New one required.
  24. Thanks folks! No mate it's not a genuine CS rear, it's the RT-P copy but looks just the same and the fit is spot on. It was a PITA to fit , trying to slide the back box into two pipes and the rubber hangers simultaneously nearly pushed me over the edge lol. Yeah will get a vid up as soon as I get chance. It's so quiet compared to the k1 but then anything would be lol.
  25. Well a day spent on my back with lots of cursing in the cold has yielded the following: Before: After: Dirty!!! Beers, pizza and cookies tonight....think I've earned it. Hate playing with exhausts! Wish I had a pit or two post lift it would be ten times easier! It's definitely quieter than the K1 but I do miss the growl. Give it a few more weeks to see if I like it.
