  1. TS are all traffic signal ones, so failure to obey a traffic signal, which is in with not stopping at Stop signs and jumping lights. Yeah meant to say its in the same group as traffic signal ones, not that it in itself was for a traffic signal. So will incur the same wrath of premium jacking as jumping a red light or not stopping for the police
  2. Well when running power cables and other assorted cables, its always safer to have the battery disconnected anyway, so no chance of damaging it as we say
  3. Although if you sit within 5ft of the router, dont require QoS or VPN, then most are about the same
  4. TS are all traffic signal ones, so failure to obey a traffic signal, which is in with not stopping at Stop signs and jumping lights. I'd imagine that will incur more than a light bit of speeding, but shouldnt be too bad? No idea really, do as Sarnie says and go do a new quote online
  5. Dont worry, you wont accidentially damage it, its quite out of the way when you remove the trim pieces I think its the one in the bottom right of this pic:
  6. Yup, power down the passenger side, and audio/VGA/power to montor/etc all down the centre console. I think that site I linked has more guides for doing that too. Honestly, pop the panels, it makes it all so much easier. You can run all the cables at once and make them nice and tidy. The bit to feed it from the centre armrest to the rear cubby is tight and much easier to do with the panels off. Its really easy to run the power down the passenger side, I'd recommend it over trying to get it to the centre console and running it down the middle
  7. If you do a search you should find posts that I've made before WRT running power to the rear glovebox (the one behind the passenger seat). Basically: 1. Remove trip around battery. This will reveal a big grommet to poke the cable through. Make a hole in it and poke cable through 2. Collect cable from passenger footwell. Remove the lower kick panel (footwell) and lower door trim. Pull up carpet, this will reveal some trunking to run cable down. 3. Pull back trim around seatbelt from floor, this will give you acces to poke cable from trunking to rear glove box (where the magic box is) 4. Find suitable screw to earth to. You now have power No idea what the box is, but it can be disconnected and reconnected without effecting anything. Dont think its airbag related, think its to do with the blutooth, but not the one Mike has posted up there. Does that help? EDIT: with piccies - http://liljerk.morpheus.net/350Z/rear_speakers/
  8. Power claims are usually only matched once you have the car mapped properly, but in the 370z case, if it has a less restrictive system it should hit that. I would suggest you will be very happy with that, a filter and remap. Well worth the money, it frees up more ponies and will make the AFR spot on so engine runs as best it can EDIT: Mark beat me
  9. Great stuff. Also can you map 2 cars in a single Saturday? We might be having a *ahem* "team meeting" at Abbey With a certain yellow car Sure we can find some cake and biscuits to keep Mark happy

  11. Roll on April (next time I get some dosh) - then I will definately be paying a visit, all in time for the Wales run How much notice do you need Mark to book in for a Saturday in April?
  12. +1 - any VAG or BMW Diesel are pretty good choices. All can be remapped to give better MPG and power/torque. Just remember you're not in the Zed when you get to the corners
  13. Yeah dont pay dealer prices for this kind of work. DIY or get an inderpendant to do it, at least its then ~£50/hr labour and not nearer £100/hr!
  14. I think a lot of peoples problems come down to heat managment/airflow. My old Netgear used to lock up a bit and it was horizontal on a shelf. Since moving house, we have it attached to the wall vertically and never had a problem with it. Runs much cooler now.
  15. Looks like a hyped up 370z. The problem with it is, although 150miles is a reasonable day to day range, I couldnt make it to the Wales run in one go, nor could we get around the route in a day as you'd have to recharge at lunch
  16. No there is some logic in there. Basically when running the engine in the last thing you want to do it nanny it and keep it at low load and low revs. You want to work it through a range of loads and revs working up to high load at high revs. Depending on which school of though you sign up dictates when you should do this. As engines are bench tested from the factory, I see no problem in taking a car up to redline almost straight away as long as the engine oil is nice and warm (90C)
  17. Netgear have never failed me, but some people hate them. We currently have their Wireless-N to go along with our 40mbs connection and it holds up just fine Have you got your ISP to do a line check Stew? Are you sure its the router? Most good ISPs will send you out a loan router to check the problem.
  18. No no no, theres a new queen in town - Stormhorse
  19. Couple of pics in different light for ya to see the colour
  20. The red looks stunning in real life. I have dibs on AK's when he sells it
  21. Have you tried ringing Moreton to see what is avaiable still? Yes please ring them, dont trust status on here or their website, we have reserved rooms that dont show other places. If it is full there are other places you can stay but Moreton is the best place to be
  22. Good work Jez. I noticed fitting a kit to my old MY03 Zed that it did make a noticable difference when pulling away and idling, but no real difference other than that. We did notice a few years back that some cars had good grounding and some were pants. Its pot luck what you get. Some see no difference from grounding kits and some see good differences. You just dont know til you fit one Nice to see some science applied to it though, when I got mine it was a case of just listening to the car and seeing what happened on the butt dyno. Good to see it proved that when it does work, it makes a measurable difference.
  23. 370z Anyway you're not allowed to sell your 350z, its too nice. Sell it to me when you're ready, I'll take it and the plate for the right price
  24. Did look very nice at Autosport
  25. The only one I can see listed is over £1k For £300 though, go treat yourself. Will transfer nicely when you get a 370z too
