    Phone Cradles

  2. Oooh I want one! But how does it attach to the dash?

    Phone Cradles

    Sorry to be the bringer of bad news, but by default you will not get a cradle in the car already. You just get the system and the input for the cradle in the transmission tunnel glove box. You would have to specify the cradle you wanted and they ain't cheap (about £100)...... there is meant to be a new bluetooth one coming out soon though. Which will give you access to more phones.....
  4. Well I asked him if it was official as was looking at it myself..... And he responded yes, in fact put the question and answer up on the page. But I missed it anyway.....

    Wheel Brands.....

    Thanks chaps, I'll let you know how I get on.......
  6. I'll let you know if I can get around to fitting it this weekend! They still only fit with cable ties though, so interesting to see what the fit will be like. If it seems like its going to break then I'll just stick some more cable ties on...... I'll post some pics when done.

    Wheel Brands.....

    Thanks Val, Thats good, I've now gone up in my narrowing down to about 7 different sets! Going to have to investigate sizes and fitments now and whether they are forged. Another question, should I be going for 1 or 2 piece wheels?
  8. I know Tim, I really, really apologise for my slacking modding behaviour! It took me weeks to get around to the back badge and I've still gotta finish the front one this weekend! I did see whether I could fit it without taking off the numberplate holder but looks like I'm gunna have to. Never mind, will try this weekend!

    Wheel Brands.....

    Thanks Val, Yeah I think the Momo ones that I like, are their top of the range models.... so looked pricey on first look. Don't suppose you know a place that stocks them or Oz do you ?
  10. Great, thought so.... That means I gotta get hold of some super sticky stuff to reattach the numberplate with after! (Ps, now answer my wheel question )
  11. Guys, I'm getting slowly taken over by the idea of modding my car. As much as I love the Rays alloys, I'm thinking about changing them for some 19"ers... But I don't want some that are going to be a lot heavier than the Rays as then I'm just going to increase the unsprung weight and potentially affect the handling. Not bothered about the odd Kg etc..... but nothing really heavy. Now I've started to have a look around and seen some that I really like the look over but the problem is that I don't really know what are reputable quality good brands and what are crap, So far, I've seen wheels that I really like in 19" by both Momo and Oz Racing. Does anyone have any comments on those brands and anywhere good that stocks them as I'd like to get a ballpark figure? I love the look of these certain momo ones but worried about them seeming a bit "chavvy" as Momo seem to be one of those brands that anyone trying to soup up their 1.1L Corsa use..... Can Funkystyling get Momos? Awaiting the valuable input .......
  12. Guys, I realise that this may be a stupid question (yes another one ), but how easy is it to remove the whole black front numberplate holder? I need to remove it as going to be fitting a grilltech front (that I bought off Tim). Looks like to get it right against the grill fins, I have to take off the black plastic holder for the number plate. On my car, the no plate is stuck onto the black plastic.... So is the black plastic thing stuck to the bumper or screwed on? I've not had chance to have a proper look myself yet, but just thought that someone on here will have already done it? Cheers, Mark
  13. Richie! Always good to have another techie around!
  14. Can you post a pic of the silver ones? Would like to see how they look? Might have a set as sick of the light scratches on the plastic.....
  15. They are lovely, ..... How much does one of them weigh? Just wondering in comparison to a Rays, I keep thinking about changing mine..... but not putting anything heavier on. Anyone know how much the Rays weigh?
  16. Blue Azure Coupe, spotted at the roundabout in Walkden..... about 5ish yesterday Couple in the car, spotted each other That was me waiting to go across. Looked lovely and shiny whereas mine was filthy! And I wasn't in the best of moods considering that the A580 was closed completely and took me 2 hours for a 45mins journey! Anyway we exchanged a nice wave .... Anyone on here?
  17. So why not join the group buy thats going on at the mo potentially for the Nismo cat back? Doesn't seem offensively loud to me listening to the sound clips that all supplied?
  18. Ok here you go..... http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/fastfleet/52293/nissan_350z.html But just found out, that this sounds like the full system, not just the cat back...... (read the article). Hope it helps....
  19. Pretty sure that this was the system that ABP Motorsport fitted for the long termer that Evo magazine had (prior to the GT4 they just shipped out). They used to rave over the sound and said it felt better etc, but whether the ECU compensated back, god knows...... If you really want, PM me and I can try to dig out the Evo mags in question and find out. Won't be straight away though as mad busy..... Otherwise go to the Evo website. You will be able to search through and find the articles through "Long Termers"...
  20. Yeah I knew it was you who had mentioned this before, just couldn't remember who the company was...... ta
  21. Sarnie, Did you find out whether this was the original manufacturer of Nismo equipment before it went to Nismo (as they don't make them allegedly) or whether a similar design from another 3rd party etc? Surely gotta be worth looking into for that difference in price...... ? And Blacky, still defo interested in this group buy....

    Z side emblem

    Oi Mike, You said that was mine at Wales as want one for my partition I''m going to make!
  24. Yep, sounds pretty good to me...... I'll be in barring any unforseen details etc...
  25. Ok Blacky... I might be interested in one of these......(if the price ends up right).... 2 daft questions first..... 1) what does "cat back" actually mean? Is it that you are actually getting an exhaust system from the catalyst back to the pipe exits? 2) are these road legal or "off road use only" etc?
