Reading on here, the throttle body clean on the DE is no big drama but the HR has the potential to make the ECU go bananas. MAF is delicate, copy what someone else on here has done before without breaking it . I'd personally disconnect the battery and pump the brakes a few times before touching any of it, but some people like to live more dangerously. There's a load of threads on this, copy this into google and fill your boots - site:350z-uk.com clean throttle body DISCLAIMER - you breaking anything is nothing to do with me, for info only here!

Just been to Durham and back, 280 miles. 160m cross country A-roads and 120m legal motorway speeds - 28mpg according to the machine. More than enough, given the fun that was had on the A road sections. Worth 13 fewer MPG any day

In theory you've got about a 1.2 seconds less 0-62 (5.9 on a DE v 7.1 in a scirocco - both alleged on autotrader). You've got an extra 76 bhp (assuming an 11 year old Zed hasn't lost any over the years, which it will) and you're also lugging circa 200kg more about. The mods won't count for anything unless it's been UpRev'd. On top of that he's got a modern auto, which probably shifts faster than a manual Zed (anyone?) and may even get off the line better (inertia?), unless you're dumping the clutch with the TCS off and keep wheel spin to a minimum. Sounds about right to me If you could find somewhere legal and safe, you might have more luck from 60-122, than 0-62.

Tremenous amount of work your putting into this show

TBF it's not my first time, I got started in 1994 with a Classic II

Superior choice there Stu. The best thing about Cipher is that UpRev claim it uses Nissan proprietary protocols - meaning faster logging rates and higher res data over generic OBD gadgets. My guess is probably half the reason for it's high cost is royalties to Nissan for access to their protocols. That's cheap, you should see the bill for the MBP you just made me order I hope you're pleased with yourself Chris

Don't about the roadster but in my coupe it's windscreen wash or window down, never both!

Seen ones in Brazil and Colombia, not Japan. I just hope they have really thorough cleaning staff, unlike the peep shows in Amsterdam which I've been told smell awful. I understand some love hotels have a glass toilet door so the Mrs can watch you on the bog. Way to get her in the mood

I did some quick maths, and that means you were 2000 miles away

Some of those steam punk girls

Looks good, I need something for my wrapped roof. Maybe one for my thread http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/100787-one-stop-guide-for-a-proper-wash/

O darn, maybe I should think bigger Isn't there a v8 lying around somewhere?

This popped up on my faceballz. Looks proppa sick

Oooooh, always fancied one but too scared of the engine bills...

In for the build, this should be ace!

Close. I rang the concierge and asked for an extra pillow I only moved it enough for the photo and to put a tiny pin hole in each of the nodders

Working away for a few days, just checked in to the hotel in Durham, checked out the mini bar. Have mini bars change a lot in the last few years? Vodka ✔️ Whisky ✔️ Gin ✔️ Mixers ✔️ Nuts ✔️ Sex lube??? Err. ✔️ Ever found anything unexpected in a hotel room? PS - can anyone recommend a budget escort service round here

If I knew how to use spanners I might be the same, but I can do way less damage with a lambswool mitt

How dare you! Everyone knows silver is simply a vegetarian GM

Well, clearly I couldn't agree with me more In the spirit of sharing a few of my favourite goodies:

+1 '04 GM owner with a Silver logbook

+1 for podcasts, Football Weekly (for footy fans) Smoking Tire for gearheads (it's in yankee) AMMO NYC (for detailing). I also carry two tubs of octane booster in case of going off the reservation.

FTFY. If they need a fridge or a dog eating, they'll maybe give Samsung a call.

Glad they sorted out that giant aerial at the same time Looks stunning mate, beautiful Z.

If I was a betting man, I'd guess they'll be teaming up with someone else who already makes cars and then bolting stuff on for autonomy. Merits of EVs aside (I think there's a thread somewhere on it ) these things are the future and apple makes a fortune marking up on quality hardware as it is, so it's a natural progression for an outfit with more cash reserves than, well, anyone!
