So its a std ecu thats been flashed mapped by Knightsports, it is a good outfit but wont be tunable over here, so yes would still get an Apexi, fully mappable and very well known and cheap too and often come up 2nd hand.
Get yourself over the mazdarotaryclub forum, personally i wouldnt bother with fduk forum.

Thanks guys, its still running standard turbos and not sure what ecu yet the guy i brought it from did say it was running over standard power but how much i dont know ,
Just put a new fuel pump on it as that was seized and might drop it at a rotary specialist soon so i can have it checked over properly.
We got no power to the fuel pump either so got alot of fun times ahead trying to get this sorted.
Run a new supply buddy, its pretty easy and safer as the original looms are now old and tired and have been known not to be able supply a constant voltage, thus resulting in running lean.
Ecu is in the passenger left footwell behind the plastic kick panel, very easy to access to see what you have.
I am not sure if Ross at Dragon Performance is still operating, i know he moved onto gtr's, but if he is still in business and will take a look, he really knows his stuff, or a little further is Tim at Rx Motors, again very very good, if a little odd, think the professor out of Back to the Future

So if Labour crash and loose more seats, what then, another leadership battle with JC standing "again" and being voted in "again"?

I guess we will soon find out as if any of the other parties feel they can grab some remainers, they will be making promises about a Brexit deal, although as said with the whole Brexit thing, who knows what deal we can strike, no matter what party is at the table.

Can we even stop A50 now? What if the EU say nope, sorry but you've triggered it now, you're leaving one way or another?
One thing is sure, if we do go back cap in hand to the EU, we are going to bent over and not even greased up......

Doesnt allow many to "prepare" but in reality, Labour isnt going to turn anything round in a couple of months with a leader the party dont even have confidence in, Lib Dems burned their bridges with their coalition, so as per Ekona, the only thing likely is a bigger Tory majority (imho).
However, 2 things i am curious about.
How will Ukip now fair seeing as in reality they have achieved their goal
How will the Snp fair with NS still banging her war drums and not much more it seems
You can be sure there is a spin here and ultimately within the Tories best interest, sadly i am just not that into politics to make an assumption to what and after the last "who/which way you voting", i will be keeping that to myself

Well that would be my first step, disconnect and see if your speedo works.

Try Wasso, he had an Emerald Ecu for his Ls swap, they made a loom (car on site) and pretty sure he has retained all the functionality (maybe not the tcs)

There is a waiting list for the Nsx, order book is closed and a premium if you want one now, how is that not selling?
Interesting thread though, being there are two dudes on the forum who have recently bought 370z Nismo's and one sharing his purchase price, £37k, I dont think anyone can assume, people will be rushing to a different dealer to buy the "better" car, whatever that might be, its just opinion and choice.
I do appreciate manufacturers will want to hit certain sales targets though, so a good example of that and discussed is the Gt86, I guess we will never know what their target numbers were but if you believe the motoring press and the purists, thats what everyone wanted, a lightweight dynamic rwd chassis with a manual box, well I am with the fox, I dont want that and I cant see the sales figures suggested that either.
Give five members on here 37k and they probably spend it on 5 different cars.
Ekona would buy a Porsche
Gman would buy a Mustang
Mike would buy a 370z
Someone would buy a Gtr
Someone would buy a Merc amg whatever/Audi Rs or R8/Bmw M something
I do hope the Japanese start giving us some alternatives soon as we all wouldnt be on here if they didnt.
new supra will be in the region of 50k easy and like the NSX it wont sell as everyone looking for a car in the relevant price brackets will turn to a premium german brand

So its going to take a proper mentalist to push the button, not sure any civilised leader is that fortunately.

Apologies, i would just presume that if you were increasing downforce on the rear it would be logical the front would become lighter so just asking of your intention regarding the front, it kind of goes hand in hand

100 miles is nothing buddy, get some heat cycles through them and see what you think then.

A mate was there in his Atom, he tells me a Vx220 caught fire?

Lets put it like this, "if" it does work, how are you planning to balance out the front?
The weight of the engine does that and the air hitting the front of the car. The bumper does create a bit of downforce and the engine weight helps. The back however just lets air flow off it. The BGW is a precaution to lessen the chance of spinning out. I've been watching many videos and it happens a lot.
But "if" your wing works, you are pushing the back of the car down, so unloading the front, so how do you intend to get that balance out that effect?

Unnecessary tyre paranoia is a recurring issue too often on this forum IMO.

I also like the idea of living on a tanker...but i image stealing one would be like stealing am aeroplane. Even if I snuck on I doubt I could pilot one. But you could grow food with some top soil on the deck. Have a small holding like in the good life but out at sea.
Now theres the winner, but imagining something more like the film Waterworld.

The biggest difference you will notice is sharper throttle response as the std response is restricted in the first few gear as Zee says, will it be noticeable faster, no, sorry to say.

Unless you are absolutely dead keen on the idea of doing it yourself so to speak, i would just buy one done although you may struggle to find a turbo'd one.
I also came from a turbo background and had a great two years in a zed then just decided i fancied going fi'd, i had never tried a supercharger so being as they were a lot more available on 350's i bought one done and i dont regret the fact it wasnt a turbo one bit. I would recommend trying to get a willing member to take you for a spin in one as i think you will be pleasantly surprised.
Curious you want a Mustang being na, you might find yourself in the same boat.

The dash cam isnt a fail safe, a guy on the vx forum had one and showed the other driver in the wrong, the two insurance companies are still "debating" who was at fault, the other driver gave a completely different chain of events in their statement, they obviously didnt know the owner had a dash cam.
