  1. Just out of interest, Why's a bankers draft more 'fakeable' than cash? Either way I'd expect to visit a bank before tossing them the keys.
  2. I picked and chose various bits from this extremely good guide. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/56481-kenwood-ddx-4028bt-rear-cam-install-–-superguide/ It's a piece of p*** really, it must be, I did it. Only thing I'd add is to be careful if you have any aftermarket stereo cabling running alongside you two cam leads. I disturbed mine and caused a bit of alternator whine on the rear passenger speaker, drove me nuts trying to solve it. Good luck.
  3. Do banker's drafts still exist? Like a cheque, but can't bounce. Easier to securely carry on your person than cash, just remember to wash your hands.
  4. Only because you don't have a choice in a kart, left foot brake or crash...!!! :scare: I hear you, I love to kart, but as soon as I get in a car my left foot only does up and down, no finesse. In a kart it just feels right. I guess for me it's like footy, left foot for standing on, right for skillz. Given some private road and someone else's car, I'm sure it's learnable.
  5. LFB is so natural in a kart, feels so weird in a car
  6. I like to blip the throttle on downshift when approaching junctions and roundabout. Only point is it sounds cool as
  7. I'd love to see some video of your little tips and tricks, but I guess it's need to know Great job!
  8. Love a bit of detail action, nice skills.
  9. You'll have to check the EULA, it may not be transferable. If it's come from a decent size company won't MS products in particular have been covered by a Volume License? I'd assume these are invalid for individual machines once they come out of the company. I bet you could extract the licence key with some freeware off the web and then reinstall post wipe. However, they may be encrypted in the registry. I'm sure I found an old windows product key from a Win XP install, but technology has moved on.
  10. Glad it's not just me who got it from the garage with fumes in the tank, was lucky it was only 5 mins to a Tesco. Just this morning ,my lights lit up like Homer Simpson's workstation, then by the time I cruised to work the crisis had been avoided.
  11. Very nice write up and even handed. Plenty of love on there in the comments as well as the dross. I love how many people view it as a GT car or a muscle car. The way I see it, I'm either James Bond (GT) or Steve McQueen (Muscle) when I'm commuting That's Connery or Dalton, not Moore, Craig or Lazenby BTW.
  12. If you could get someone in the boot, they'd have to be dismembered, so the boot release would be of little use! Edit: Could be a midget I suppose. Nik Nak might fit.
  13. when we think we need another team member then we will have a look around to see who we think would be good and fit the bill. Salary is nothing as with all team members, Sometimes a lot of work and with little recognition. Its all on a voluntary basis and for the enjoyment of being part of the best 350z & 370z forum. Well FWIW I think the team does a very fine job indeed. This is one of the best places on the web to spend your time, which speaks volumes for the work you all do, as does the number of members who are still around after de-zedding.
  14. Just out of interest. How do you get to be a mod? Is there a test? What's the starting salary?
  15. Got my SAMCO hoses (not the air intake mind) from Cougar Store, top service. I think there's a lead time for fancy colours but always worth a PM!
  16. I tried the mega kit with minimal improvement, was a bit tentative TBH, it felt scary.
  17. When my techs bled my clutch after a slave cylinder change, initially they couldn't get the clutch pedal back. I'm not sure what the "normal" process is for most cars, but once I found this from the workshop manual and showed them, they changed technique slightly and my pedal came back shortly after. Sorry to be a bit vague, but this content did make a difference. I seem to remember when I bought it from Zmanaalex he said there was a "knack to it".
  18. along, loads of stuff on here about making them faster and louder. Enjoy!
  19. I don't like to go too high on the prices, it's taking advantage of addicts. I know, I'm one of them
  20. I'm sure there's somewhere in the UK you can get them but I went for these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/121127941745?item=121127941745&viewitem=&sspagename=ADME:L:OU:GB:3160&vxp=mtr
  21. Funds landed - thanks for quick work. Mods please lock down.
