  1. Awesome car mate That plate is the nuts too
  2. The Bluetooth adaptor should sit in the cradle you have already installed.
  3. I would imagine they are quite expensive and loud! Lovely looking exhaust though.
  4. Looks the same as the HKS but is a replica version http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/STAINLESS-STI ... _938wt_689
  5. Looks like a HKS................
  6. Tarmac sells the nismo for £1350 I believe! The Invidia Gemini true dual sounds very similar to the nismo. Tarmac also sells these, they are much cheaper than the nismo, nearer £900 i think. to confirm though. Do a search on YouTube for the invidia, I think it sounds nice but I'm a bit of a brand whore so I'm looking at getting the nismo!
  7. Steve, what prep would you recommend for painting the metal of the actual car, for example around where the strut brace fixes to the car? Its the same process really, metal primer (will prevent rust), base coat, top coat, laquer. Ensure that the primer and base coat are a similar colour to the finished colour so that you dont have to apply lots of coats to block out the primer. For example when having black as the finished colour, use a grey primer and base coat and not white otherwise it will take more coats to cover. Clean the area before hand with some wire wool and methylated spirits or brake cleaner and a cloth. Wire wool will help to etch the surface slightly. Use plenty of masking tape and paper to cover the areas you dont want to paint, a low tack clean edge tape will help give a good finish. Also worth buying some tack cloths to wipe over the area to be painted after sanding to pick up any tiny particles of dust. (the cloths have a small amount of a sticky wax on them which pulls the dust off, whilst not interfering with the surface) Sand down inbetween coats apart from when you come to apply the laquer.
  8. The key to getting a good finish is the prep work, do this right and you should be able to get a brilliant finish. No need to sand plastic just use a good primer, sand inbetween coats to provide to make the surface smooth and remove any contaminants (specs of dust etc) and provide it with a good key for the next coat.
  9. I'm after one of those too, no such luck as yet!
  10. Th looks what headunit is that, it looks the nuts?
  11. I would be interested for the right price.
  12. VERY COOL If there was a like button i'd be pressing it right now!
  13. I had a power steering fluid leak coming from the rubber pipes going into the cooler, had to take the bumper off and just replaced the pipe which was leaking I think it was where the rubber goes onto the thinner cooler pipe, mine had just split slightly. Enough to cause a constant leak and make a mess under the car with the wind blowing it back.
  14. Welcome along bud! As long as you look after the car and regular services etc it should be fine. I think it was maybe a coincidence that two engines went at the same time.
  15. Yeah he is! I don't get to watch it very often but I've seen it at the o2 twice now. Great atmosphere!
  16. The iphone 4s does indeed take a micro sim so i think you will need to get a new sim for him.
  17. Was it a roadster because I also saw a gun metal in Woking today but it was a roadster. Didn't catch the plate, was at about 4.30 ish

    Minor mod....

    Yeah mine was factory fitted and the Zed I had previously was the same aswell. It's just the weight of the boot and the spoiler really. An oversight on Nissans part I think.
