  1. PM sent, but in a nutshell. I'm coming to Leeds today and I can let you plug your laptop in to my UpRev cable and laptop and let you read any codes and log some data if it will help?
  2. I think it's hertz prestige where they guarantee you the model (not the colour though), you do pay a bit extra but you get what was promised or a genuine upgrade.
  3. 10 years ago it was the Poles, coming over here, doing plumbing, fixing up buildings, all in a second language. 40 years ago it was the Indians & Pakistanis, coming over here, inventing a national cuisine, all in a second language. 400 years ago it was the Huguenots, coming over here, criticising Catholicism, all in a second language. 1000 years ago it was the Anglo Saxons, coming over here, inventing the language and laying down the basis for our culture. At least post Brexit, this sort of thing will stop and there'll be no more terror due to the Border Controls and that. Yeah?
  4. agreed, but what about the 1000's of jobs already lost to immigrants, and the 1000's of uk nationals that cant get a house, doc's appointment, wages being driven down especially in the construction industry and farming etc etc etc because of all the migrants coming to the UK and god help us if the Turks get a free ride to the UK. Our health and welfare systems are drowning in overload from these people and the infrastructure isn't in place to cope. My daughter is a nurse and she tells me insane stories of her working day, like the nhs having to supply hundreds of interpreters because they cant speak a sentence of english !!!!!!!!!!! Cant see how suddenly all the UK nationals working abroad will be made redundant, they will just need a working visa or have to apply to immigrate to the country they are working in. I'm not against immigration, as long as its not a free for all. How the hell is Europe's rich (of which there is only a few) countries supposed to employ and house all these people and more important, how / whos paying for it.........ummm let me guess.... yes the UK tax payer gets shafted again :-(. All this political crap about immigrants putting more into the pot than they take out............yeah right, just political spin. When the poles first started coming over it was for sure, working Poles, with a decent attitude to UK life, now its all the lazy gits coming over Bulgaria and Rumania for free this and free that. Personally I'm sick to the teeth of paying for them and their families, whilst I have to watch my community go down the pan because there's no money left. So what you're saying is that the economic "crap" about migrants generating more than they cost is just "political spin" but the anecdotal "lazy gits coming over Bulgaria and Rumania" is evidence based fact? And the people who "cant speak a sentence of english" are: 1 - not only taking the jobs 2 - but then not paying any tax in these jobs they've taken 3 - and also not spending any of the money they earn from these tax free jobs in the economy 4 - then after the tax free job, where they don't spend any earnings, they then get "free this and that" (whatever that even is?). Which is it? It can't be all of them as they are directly contradictory!
  5. If you're doing springs and ARBs, it'd be rude not to do the Bilstein dampers whilst it's up in the air. Car looks
  6. It might have changed, but having browsed them before it was hard to gauge the letter heigh in comparison to the height of the tyre wall, be useful if you could get some shots from them of various sizes letters on a known tyre wall size. I think Grundy has 1 inch size letters on a 35/40 profile tyre for his TT ones. Useful, but what's the width Grundy?

  8. Whatever the little voice inside says, it's usually right and your OP reads like you know the answer but would like some confirmation. If you genuinely dread going home, it's time to move on. You wouldn't put up with it in a job and that's not really that important in the grand scheme of things. Assuming you're not talking about her asking you to do the bins, leave the bog seat down, put your pants in the laundry bin, etc.
  9. It's not difficult it's just delicate, my tech used a quick blast of electrical contact cleaner.
  10. The MAF is delicate, be careful removing and installing and clean using the appropriate process. I'm sure there's a guide on here. FWIW I don't think it will solve the smell of I burnt fuel but it won't hurt, if done correctly.
  11. When you plugged in the OBD2 scanner, what was the code for the CEL?
  12. Part 2 of my series, Birmingham City Centre hotel tonight for work tomorrow. The car park is mid-renovation so mainly coned off, however this only helps with the reverb. No ears were damaged, apart from my own.
  13. along! Feel free to pop something in the Guides http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/35-guides/
  14. Very tasteful The extra girth is a nice touch, that I didn't think I'd really notice until I gripped mine. PS - Clarkson needs his denim back for the Autumn and the filming of Not Top Gear.
  15. Switzerland is so good I'm trying to talk my mates into going there this summer and do this lot all over again. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/76678-switzerland-road-trip-with-audi-a3-cabrio-tfsi/
  16. I'd be interested, price dependent, in some yellow Michelins (as per the blue Zed). For the "grammar nazi's" there's no apostrophe required in Nazis
  17. dishing it out on the way to loser cruiser ^^^
  18. I looked into this a little while ago, to get a vq in an mx5 you would need to make some extensive modifications to the height of the engine by either dry-sumping or re-designing the plenum. Seems high tech. What about sawing a big hole in the bonnet?
