  1. I've got an Orange SPV E650 which is effectively an HTC and that works fine.
  2. Digsy

    MY08

    No more upgrades for this model IMHO - too close to the all new one at this stage.
  3. http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... ht=dension This may be of some interest to you.
  4. No need for a new cradle. The Nokia bit comes off and the bluetooth bit goes on.
  5. Thanks for your input, Dan. Much appreciated.
  6. How do you know when everyones birthday is? OC
  7. This is a bit poor considering the Londoners outvoted the Mancs. Now you know which one you should have gone for....
  8. I'd still go for the thirsty whore if you could A couple of years ago a previous gf also bought a Cooper S after we test drove both back to back. There did seem a big difference in performance. Plus the works kit on an S gives you a much bigger increase than on the cooper if you ever think of getting it. Spot on - loved my thirsty whore and tons faster than a Cooper. Also agree with the comment that in urban situations an MCS is loads more fun than a Zed. I'd have one of each if I could - oh, and the Works kit of course!
  9. Envy seem to do them for the GTR so should be able to source. http://www.envyperformance.com/index.cf ... N=44236691 Or you could contact this guy, ZBUZZ (scroll down) who seems to have them on his Zed. http://www.zcar.com/forums/read/4/1886708/1887647
  10. I've seen it elsewhere - not good for NA applications. 6 bhp at the wheels, 8 at the fly. Shame its not been posted up here. was that with a modified ecu to suit or using the OEM ecu? OEM I think.

  12. Agreed. I can easily get more than 400 miles during a motorway cruise, in fact I got nearer five on the way back from the Ring last year. (seriously effective aeroynamics on the Zed) If I have a 'poor mpg month' and spend lots of time queueing, and driving around towns and cities, I usually get sub 350. In the summer (and hence usually more enthusiastic, a bit less!) I find the Zed to be hugely economical for what it is, however, you need to be driving to it's eco strengths (i.e. the motorway) to realise the economy. I guess that's why I am asking - I never queue, I live in the middle of nowhere. Even if I'm stuck behind someone, I'm doing 40. There are maybe 5 junctions between home and work (15 mile drive) where I have to come to a complete stop, just before pulling out. There's a big difference between a constant speed with no gearchanges on the motorway and your B-road commute where you've indicated that there are plenty of gear changes, plus you're covering the miles slower. That's why you won't get motorway MPG.
  13. I'm afraid that if you think you will get 400 miles from a tank you have made a horrible mistake. What you were in fact looking for is something called a "diesel". Seriously, though this is a 3.5 litre V6 sports car weighing more than one and half tonnes. What did you expect? On regular B road driving (without hooning around) I get 23-24 mpg on a good day. If I'm doing a steady speed on the motorway I might get late twenties pushing thirty. What does the consumption say on your computer? Also, how low did you let it get before filling up? The other night I drove with ----- on the dte for about 3 miles and still couldn't fit more than 72 litres in the tank - I think it takes 80 IIRC - so its got a mighty reserve when that orange light comes on. Oh, and you can run it on 95 RON - it won't do any harm but you will lose power and blunt performance. Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings....
  14. They've even stuck a B pillar in the production car when the concept didn't have one.
  15. Of course it does it's a retro 70's influenced car.... I get where he's coming from. The Camaro looks like a modern car with some retro styling themes. The Challenger just looks old and out of date.
  16. Typical Nissan. F@ck the punter who's just paid £28k.....
  17. Digsy

    short shifter

    Might be worth getting it checked before you go the shortshifter route. I'm happy to have a go and let you know if its any different to mine.
  18. I've got a Draytek Vigor 2800VG. I'm not technical but it seems to work well.
