ok now your in here, basically, my car when its been turned on and just starting to go, the temp is down, which is ok, but the car seems to be missing a bit, the plugs...

now, is it because there old and need replacing? or is it because there gapped too big? or just coz there cold? now when the engine gets to normal temperature, they run fine...

ok second question, took brake pads out today coz they make a bit of noise, and i want to know what they are, a mate who helped me get them out, said that he thinks there not stock, but isnt 100%.. can anyone tell me, they dont have there name printed right on them so yeh.. dont ask haha.. the pic is attached

What heat range you running? eg BCPR 5 ES ("5" is the heat range)

Don't think you wil ever tell who made the pads, or what grade they are. They look a bit "Bendix Ultimate", but you're not going to be able to get a definitive answer, I don't think.

cant see how a reset would stuff the aftermarket chip.. if its still based on the factory ecu it will still have all the self learing as factory and would benfit from a reset but theres no way it could stuff it, what happens if u had a flat battery.. start at the plugs and see...

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
