Ho Ho Ho - Christmas Stocking Stuffer Ideas


Recommended Posts

Ok - it's been a bit hostile and overall very boring here in forum land for a while.

So before we pull out the big guns and get Troy and I drunk for another Playboy Mansion midnight eFight, let's look at this holiday season as a fun time and try to bring some community merryment back in the picture...

It's fair to say we have all dealt with the Christmas quote 'but you are so difficult to buy for'. As car people, I say there's no-one easier than us. Accessories and trinkets are MADE for us this time of year!

So...

What could the fat man fill your stocking with this Christmas?

I'm not talking gift-wrapped Ferarris here - these are real, tangible gift ideas that may give others some inspiration of what to get their friends and loved ones.

Some ideas to start:

Scale model of their car

There are plenty of 1:43 and 1:18 diecast models available these days. eBay Santa is already bringing me one of these...

Earth wire grounding kit

These are the coolest looking useless mod ever (except for vortex generators). What says 'happy birthday Jesus' more than a well grounded spark and purple cables.

GT-R Badge

Perfect for everything from the lawnmower to the fridge. Adds 10Kw to anything.

What are some more ideas?

Your head aint screwed on right :wave:

All the things to wish for xmas you want a toy of the toy you have parked in the garage ? And a wiring kit that will short out the car so it catches on fire??? Actually thats a great idea as your car parked next to mine just reminds me how much weight i have put on as i cant swing my door out enough for easy egress from the vehicle. :wave:

So this Xmas Im hoping a chance meeting will net me one of these.

...and when is our Xmas tree going up? I need to put your Streets and Modonna CDs there...and puppy Cujo that is going to eat your cat!

Hey remember he's leaving you for Xmas and moving into Palace De Patterson Lakes (well at least I hope he still is!)

Nah - you can borrow mine :O

Actually. I think the eye liner would really bring out my eyes, taking the attention away from my balding head.

And the jacket, well they did have a few good songs....but my god the 80s were horrible to everyone but John Secada and Fergal Sharkey. Actually, they should release a Christmas album together.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
