heater matrix pipes ordered
jack the front up as high as high as possible set the heater on max, and slowly top up the rad as it drains away burping out the fluid with the vent on the left and the rad cap open. or you can do the other method (that I haven't tried, but have been told by a very reliable source) to get a rag and some compressed air to push the fluid round the system via the rad cap then top up.

get yourself some 12" long nose pliers, makes life easier and its getting the old hard brittle ones off that's the hard bit. the silicone ones pop on so much easier because they flex. even new rubber ones are better.

yeah I generally get bits of mike because he's not only cheaper but he also doesn't try to sell me new wheels as well as single park plug.(you all know what I mean)

auto to manual wireing

that does look cheaper but still if they were in the uk the postage would be no where near that, I dunno what nissans price is but zcentre charge....£10+vat plus his extortionate delivery charge.

the above isn't a bad suggestion, why not try moving away from a shop premises and doing mostly mail-order and selling a few bits from your shed, cuts down on overheards and gives you more free time to do other projects.

everytime you go looking for something good you find tahts its available in the us or oz but here forget it, or you've gotta pay obscene postage. take these coil pack connectors for example. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-Skyline-rb20-rb20det-rb25-rb26-rb25det-coil-pack-connectors-plugs-/300848288668?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item460bf4939c why the hell can you not get them at this sort of price in the uk there only plugs at the end of the day.
