  3. Big welcome I think i spotted this one in the Stockwood area ?
  4. I have had another amazing day. So many cars and the laps were I will let Captain write about his drive today but every lap was fantastic, so many super cars around and had many people to talk to. I climbed into a lotus exige R(think that is what it was), seriously nearly got stuck inside, really small but great on the twist's and turns. Really nice to meet Chris and his daughter, his S/C sounded Off to work now until midnight so pictures will follow in the morning.

    Help Please!

    What size wheels are these ? yes the rear/car needs to be a little lower imo. Mine has been lowered 30mm to get look you maybe after. As Ian has mentioned his coilovers will do a perfect job for you
  7. Looking fantastic, what a superb project
  8. To be fair i would forget a oem one and upgrade the y pipe.
  9. A big stinky smell is good, just the new exhaust bedding in, this will happen with any new part fitted. It will soon dissappear
  10. You can have my oem for £29.99 + post,
  11. I had this in mind when i purchased a y pipe/cat back exhaust. I have most tools ect but the bolts did not want to move. I took it down the garage while i waited and done in no time at all. Some times you just have to give in and let the pro's do it.
  12. Problem with main dealer is that if it does not fit first time as it should then you are knackered, most local exhaust places will go a little further and venture into any problems that may arise. My scorpion touches a heat sheild when its cold but within 5 mins it warms up and no more noise the sheild can be removed and mine is a 04 plate
  13. You could of came out as a passenger, August is the next track day
  14. I had amazing day around that track this was my first time and what fun driving the car to its max. I have owned my car for over 3 years and never gone around corners in it so hard until today, the grip was something else. I did drive with the traction on but this only cut in on 3 sharp corners so i was able to plant the pedal hard whilst turning and then the car pulled hard as it straightend out, it was that or spin the back out. I will next time go and drive with the TC off but needed a day with it on to gain my experience. There was this long right hand corner, super fast but by the end of the day i was able to go around without lifting off but whilst doing this a huge noise was coming from my mouth through the helmet aaaaarrrrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhhhh I had only managed to do this twice as the entry was so important, huge amounts of grip from my car. As Captain mentioned lifting off everytime yes I agree but it can be done flat out. I will be doing another day in August if other members are intersted, well worth the experience.
  15. I have 2 and they are perfect for me
  16. Go for it Mike A car on my list but never got around to owning one, looks a bit imo but these cars are all about speed do it and have fun.
  17. Would love to attend this but on holiday that week. Best of luck Captain
  18. I took my wheel off today and the bolts were stiff/a little rusty. Should you put any copper grease or tiny bit of oil on them ?
  19. ok the washer bottle is totaly free of any blue jelly stuff, i have always used the pink stuff and that seems all fine. It is strange that they both stop working at the same time. I have soaked the conectors in petrol very quickly to remove some of the greese, cleaned them and reconnected. I park my car in the garage every time, do you think that the car getting hot can make the greese warm and shield any connection between the wiring block and terminals ?
  20. I am really stuck with this. I purchased new a front and rear motor washer April last year, put them in and they working fine. Never used the washers much as my car is always super clean and it never goes anywhere in the winter. The last 4 months both of them stopped working. I tested the wiring and there is a permanent live to each one and when you pull the stick to activate them they are then earthed so there is not a wiring fault. The only way I can get these to work is to tap the motors and then they start working again i put everything back and for a couple of days all is good. I will not use the car for a week and they stop working again, how annoying is this Double checked all power to the motors and all is good, tap both motors and they start working again. There is alot of that white greese inside the little connectors, can this prevent contection or do i have nackered motors ? I phone Nissan and they said this is very strange, not heard of this before. This really is doing my head in. HELP please.................
