  1. I have pix but don't seem to be able to post them on here the resolution is too big!! I will try to put them on Skydrive and put up a link. Humm I will try something else
  2. Editing doesn't seem to be working. Anyway.... these seem to be pretty good quality to me they will last for yonks and if it's sunny this year maybe they will tone down a little
  3. I have these, they sure brighten the interior up, the orange is extremely orange, nothing like my orange leather seats, but they are pretty cheap and the delivery is quick. I am hoping they fade in the sun eventually tho.
  4. As you requested looks a decent choice, the reviews here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Panasonic-Lumix-14-1MP-Digital-Camera/dp/B003WOKU4W/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1388768544&sr=1-1&keywords=fz45+panasonic+camera read OK
  5. I had one of these http://www.amazon.co.uk/Fujifilm-FinePix-SL1000-Digital-Camera/dp/B00AX12ZMC/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pd_S_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=32B70XP4Z9FZG&coliid=I1BGDXJA4808L4 Which I found to be better than I am at photography, ie it had more to it than I would ever use - a fantastic bit of kit for the price. I upgraded to a Nikon http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nikon-Coolpix-P520-Camera-42xZoom/dp/B00B7YFZU8/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1388759448&sr=8-8&keywords=nikon+coolpix - bad move the Fuji was a better camera by far for me.
  6. Good work, thanks for the heads up, site bookmarked for when mine eventually needs recovering.
  7. Liking those braces a lot, they look similar to the Cusco ones, do you know if the bar is honeycomb, solid, hollow or baffled and how much does it weigh? ..... please and yeah, will it fit over the DE with a plenum spacer without the spacers?
  8. http://venataur.com/MrDimma2/DimmaHome.html Not completely sure they do but if not I'm sure they will have contacts.
  9. Errr thanks Arran, sadly I expect it's just use, I didn't check the level since May, the previous owner telling me it didn't use oil between services. Idiot me, then reading the recent engine dying threads here prompted me to check, it was pretty low, a tad under the bottom marker. I wondered why it was tapping a little at the top when idling when hot!! Seems ok now, no unusual noises at all, I WAS worried I might have left it a bit late tho!!
  10. I didn't read all the Pistonheads thread but there are some pretty knowledgeable people on there who seem to think it is a decent quality product and at that price it's useful for topping up, especially if like mine yours burns a fair bit, I had to put over 2 litres in it yesterday to get it back up to level!!!
  11. http://www.halfords....tegoryId_165581 Heads up!! - Shamelessly stolen from Pistonheads http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductMobileDisplay?zygonManPartNum=H+5W30+FORD+FL+SYN&zygonId=13669029&zygonArticleNum=640775&zygonGenericCode=000000&catalogId=10151&storeId=10001&productId=1009580&categoryId=165581&langId=-1 Although the site recommends this one for my car

    OEM Wheel Nut

    I only know because I recently had an OEM locking nut break on me so I decided to get rid of them altogether. They were £3.02 ex VAT and come next day if they don't have in stock already.

    OEM Wheel Nut

    You can buy them singly from main dealers, they will need your VIN to get the correct ones.
  14. Sounds like a good idea to me - especially if there turns out a common theme!! Maybe you need to PM the guys who have had their engines let go, or post a link to this thread on their sad demise threads!
  15. Spotted last night in the Cross Keys car park Knutsford black Coupe, then near Row Of Trees (Knutsford Rd/Brook Lane) Gunmetal Roadster -snap I guess outside your home.
  16. IMO hitting the limiter regularly will not harm the engine if it is well maintained. Nissan set it there for obvious reasons, it is possible to remove the limiter and get a few more revs out of the engine probably without doing any damage (again - if the engine is well maintained).
  17. Pretty sure there was a recent post from someone in that area giving a local place good reviews - have you tried a search on here?
  18. Your do get what you pay for and it is probably a good thing to support the traders on the site who do a really good job with price, supply and communication etc. but if you are on a budget then all you really need is: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/160416907623?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2648 and http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Aluminium-Alloy-HeatShield-Heat-Shield-Air-Filter-Protect-Protection-Universal-/190885992029?pt=UK_DIY_Materials_Plumbing_MJ&var=&hash=item2c71b1165d they work as well as any and unless you are going for big power upgrades then with a decent remap you wont notice the difference.
  19. Cough cough ........... Manchester Airport ........cough (Two tunnels roundabout at both ends).
  20. It's most likely as said - the belts. It's something to do with the increased use of the electrics such as demisters, heaters, lights etc, as the nights are longer and the weather is colder, I find a squirt of WD40 onto/into the alternator usually fixes it. But it IS also a good idea to check that the condition and tightness of your belts is ok too.

  22. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/77581-berk-hfc-group-buy-from-tarmac/ Just a heads-up for you, saves a few squid.
