Why do you need another set of lights? I assume Paul is doing them,he sent me a loan set while he did mine.

I am starting mine Thurs afternoon through till Sat when there is no more light.

I think you would be better going to a meet and hearing different ones in the flesh. Get yourself to Chester services next Sunday morn were there will be every make of exhaust you could think of.

Azure Blue is the best for reflections.

HKS do an interface CAMP2 which plugs into OBD2 port which Nissan use for diagnostics,this will display revs,mph,mpg etc once connected to a screen. Do a search for Camp2 and it should throw something up,I know 3fiddy has one fitted.

So will we be seeing more posts from you. It's a shame you didn't finish the challenge with Rob(H5) on the engine bling. A lot more of us have gone this route.

Welcome back. I have read a lot of your old posts but not seen much of you since I joined last year.

You have to join in Martin,give the others some help.

Sounds cool bud, what colour you going with ? Ummm... Azure blue! I wasn't entirely sure on the colour at first, but it's really grown on me and I'd just like to get it perfect as it should be, and the only realistic way of doing that is a respray as the car is stonechipped to buggery I'd like to try something different, but unless I strip the car right back to a bare shell there'll always be a remnant of the old colour there, and as much as that shouldn't hurt the resale value I know it will, so I'm trying to be a little sensible as well. Totally agree with staying with Azure.Just make sure it's not as thin or ripply as how Nissan applied it.

Great work Tim. I hope he is going to keep it like that from now on.

Congratulations.

They look great Paul. Pity i have just bought the RSW kit.

Stew,do you not think the metal polish will strip the laquer off the polished rim?

You should be able to get that lot here. http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/ You also get points to redeem on future purchases. As for getting a cheaper brush,you could but it will fall to bits after a few washes.I have had mine over 12 months and its as good as the day i bought it.

Trust me mate,you would be better using them as summer wheels only.I have a set on mine,they are just over 12 months old and one of the front wheels is marked were water has got under the laquer. What have you done with your original wheels? As people have said put a good sealant on them before fitting them.Buy yoursef a good wheel brush,I have the EZ Detail brush it will clean to the back of the rim.As for tyre dressing Blackfire is good but not cheap,it lasts ages.Also you need a good no acidic wheel cleaner like Billberry. Do all that and you should be fine,having said that I have and still have a marked alloy.

Good luck Mark. Keep us posted.

Congrats mate,let the grinning begin.

Funny you should say that Nixy,the missus said to me are you sure you did not take out yourself.To which I replied I think I would bloody remember doing that.

Thanks anyway Rob,won't make that mistake again.

I did mine on my own and i am not the biggest of blokes. Set of mole grips on the shaft under the gear surround and a set of grips on the gear knob.Put a towel between both sets of grips stop them marking. It does take quite a few turns to get it off though.

Where did you find the info Rob,cant find anything on the website?

Nice one,will do.

Why Rob can they lock it somehow?

I think it was just an opportunist thief trying car doors and he got lucky with mine.

Had a bit of a DOH moment thurs night. Forgot to lock my car,i had been cleaning the engine bay and forgot all about it. Anyway Friday unlocked the car,well at least i thought i had got in and everthing seemed normal started it up and my headunit went to radio which is unusual as the ipod should play.Looked in the cubby only to find my ipod missing,now this is the strange thing my Tomtom was in there aswell and thats still there.They have took my satnav out removed the ipod and put the satnav back and closed the cubby then closed the door. Cheeky little feckers. Upside no damage was done,but now i double check i have locked it and removed my new ipod.
