  1. Mine is a JDM so I need one but usually the cheap obd-2 readers are quite vague. I personally find ones that connect to the laptop like cipher, STAR, durametric and RStuner are usually way way way better.
  2. its only 1 or 2 times on the diagnostics machine at Nissan. I need to scrape some pennies to buy it though.
  3. I saw you across the road from the Medical training thing in Aberdeen. Ashgrove road I think?

    TVR Chimaera

    love it
  5. Yes but then he has to log into ebay, bid, wait, log into paypal, pay, arrange a courier, wait on it being delivered. All sounds like hassle to me
  6. How long until the new ones are sold though. T1-r's,MPS2's and gsd3's where still available for a year and a bit later and the new ones where pretty hard to find at the time. I think tyre companies wanted rid of the older stuff first.
  7. It's normal.
  8. You just said apart from handling it's better and then you list handling in why it's better
  9. You do realise that their sponsorship just ran out/expired. Also google thorney and vx220 or Vxr
  10. Are you sure you want to finance a 3.5 v6 for 3 years? 1 if your going to finance something get something proper like a z4m or a cayman. Secondly what do you think the zed will be worth in 3 years? It's your money and it's 100% up to you how to spend it but if you think having a zed isn't going to be a hassle I think you will be shocked. Nissan don't know what it is half the time and if your paying Nissan part prices id get a Maserati.
  11. At least he has one You brake the other rule. Not having one
  12. Id get a newer one with 70-80k miles on it personally. And 3 hours is nothing tbh. Id get a 3l z4 tbh
  13. I haven't But seriously, that's not the point. Do what you do in your own time but saying it on a public forum is another thing. I think as car clubs go they try to give themselves a good name and distance themselves from behaviour like that. You can see why. The club wont condone the actions of the op. in other forums saying you was racing or bragging about speeding on a "private" road will get you infraction points or banned. Racing ain't cool kids, your not even allowed to do it on track.
  14. Raa i never thought about the cons, i made a research and there are lot of cons such as engine damage, what i will do; drain the oil inside the engine get a normal crap oil, use it for a week and then drain it again and put the good oil.. Good idea mate, thats my idea of flushing too.
  15. Forte or Wynns amongs other people do them. Apparently diesel works too. I personally wouldnt bother as there is cons to flushing too.
  16. Thankyou Daood - but I've got zero intention of a BMW now - straight away the insurance group is back up at at least 15+. I know how good the grunt is in the 3L diesels though - my Dad's currently in a 535d and I've driven a few over the years I drove another SAAB 9-3 diesel today - identical to yesterdays but much better response and handling which confirms yesterday's was a bit of a turkey... but todays was minging inside - I mean stinking no worries Why do people sell dirty cars its not a good omen is it.
  17. Ive got a 330d touring if you want a shot?
  18. More likely than not. Im still convinced its something electrical because of the speed it goes from fine to broken Il see if I can find anything.
  19. What is wrong with the box? Is it not the TC that needs changing rather than the box?
  20. Its not just the cost. Cams dont work or add any power unless your raising compression and adding head work.

    MREV2???

    As wasso said its a DE collector but its been shaved and polished. In the US you can send your lower plenum to them and they will give you $100 back as the mrev2 is made from the oem plenum. So gains can be had but you have to be careful. Maybe its different as your boosted but its all a trade off. Top end versus low end torque.
  22. I told you The C class has awesome balance and really lets you get away with murder. Id love a c63
  23. those 7 series are apparently plagued with problems. do your research and double check them. if you want german V8 i would possibly be looking at the Audi A8 4.2 Quattro. kit level is insane. 4wd for thr snow in winter. and audi build quality. if i needed more back seat space over the jag, this is what i;d be checking out. Audi suck. They cant do better than 3series a4 level. Which 7series an e60 or e38? The 4.4 v8 is a great engine. Whats wrong with it this time? Exact same thing or something else?
  24. you be careful I might take you up on that - dealerships do not take you seriously when you rock up in a beat up eight year old Astra I need something to do the rounds in... Mr T offered me the R35 for the purpose though funnily enough I think he was only joking If you dont mine being seen in it, its yours
  25. Thats knee jerk? Its a massive problem up here TBH. Yes the problem was the trouble maker but asbos and anything else didnt work and they would reoffend. When you look at a bottle of frosty jacks or big beastie, mad dog 50/50, white lightning and the likes its to hammer these drinks. Alot of time and effort is taking to police the streets at this time of night. A&E is full at weekends. 90% of people I have called the police on where drunk. It costs Scotland millions and its a problem that needs to be tackled. Pricing it higher wont do much but the social attitude to drinking needs to change hence why they did it.
