Chris`I Posted June 16, 2010 Author Posted June 16, 2010 Dont use the main dealer Give Jim a shout at SJB if you need any work, unless it needs Nissan's Consult Diagnostics, he should be able to sort it Quote
BigDaveZed Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 So just for basic servicing etc, SJB are ok? It might sound nieve but I have never used another garage except a main dealer on any of my cars Quote
Chris`I Posted June 16, 2010 Author Posted June 16, 2010 They are fine for anything that doesnt require specialist Nissan knowledge which is basically anything that doesnt need the Nissan Diagnostic equipment. Servicing, brakes, clutches, aux belts. Its pretty much all the same on any car. Better off with a good inderpendant who knows how to do these things than some spotty oik that claims to be a Nissan specialist, when all they service is Micras day in day out! As I say, SJB are VAG (VW, Audi, SEAT, Skoda) specialists, so they have the computer for that stuff, and are highly regarded on the respective message boards for those makes. Just as TGM Sport in Fleet are Honda specialists but know a lot about the Zed too Quote
BigDaveZed Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 Good to know man Sorry to hijack the thread! Quote

Chris`I Posted June 16, 2010 Author Posted June 16, 2010 Space for 2 more mods on the first page Lowering & spacers hopefully I can combine multiple mods into one post, just keeping them seperate until they fill up. Go faster stripes and Carbon will be making an appearance at some point, both exterior and engine bay Quote

andlid Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 why is it called black edition when it's grey? any vids??? looks sweet... Quote
Chris`I Posted April 22, 2011 Author Posted April 22, 2011 is the reversing cam a "mod"? how did you link it up to the screen? Until MY2011 cars, the back up cam was not an option. A clever chap in the States made a harness to allow you to connect an aftermarket Kenwood camera and get the lines etc working like this: Quote
mpkayeuk Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 Chris, I fitted my backup camera yesterday. Whenever I try and use the guidelines, it freezes the Nav unit. It doesn't do it if I remain stationary, it seems to be related to steering input. At the moment I have the turning guides off and it works okay. Did you get this (looking above it seems not). Quote
mpkayeuk Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 Sorted it. I was entering the negative number in the config incorrectly... well I say incorrectly, it is totally unintuitive if you are trying to follow Brian's instructions precisely. Ahh well, live and learn All's well now. EDIT: Actually, I lied. I had entered the number correctly the first time, but without the - (I hit it first rather than last). The nav unit then filled a trailing zero and I didn't refer to the instructions again, so I was trying to enter the - without a position available for it in the interface. Arrrghhh. lol. I didn't want to give the impression that Brian's instructions are anything other than easy to follow... Quote
Chris`I Posted April 23, 2011 Author Posted April 23, 2011 Glad to hear you got it all sorted. Instructions made perfect sense to me. If you think they should be clearer, let Brian know, hes a sound guy and looking to make things as easy as possible Quote
gooner360 Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 Chris have you got a link for the reversing camera please , thats one thing i was going to miss from my previous car . Seen a few on the net but that looks the best i've seen . Quote
