  1. lol - Why would anyone need a 3.5L engines car just to go from A-B Many many useful apps out there i.e. SatNav - why have to carry round a bulky thing when you have one on your phone (or spend Stuuupid money on poor implementations from manufacturers) Keep shooting still not convinced Cant you get OBD for the iPhone? Sure I saw that, or some other 3rd party app for piggy back ECU readouts. Now thats cool
  2. Is there any way to tell up front if you would be able to map a certain car? Say if we emailed you our VIN number, could UpRev look it up somehow and decide if its mapable or not without sending it away? Otherwise people like me risk quite a long journey to have our ECU read, then have to do it all over again to have the mapping done
  3. +1! Nightmare trying to get parked in some places and agree that they are only there to generate revenue in a lot of cases Dawn: You need to find yourself some friendly pikies. Tell them there is a car for the taking and they can make a few hundred quid in scrap metal and they'll be round quick sharp!
  4. I like it, mine had it, just a shame Nissan leather is crap! Doesnt take much abuse for it to crack and be ruined, so whichever colour you decide to go for, make sure its in top condition and make sure you feed it regularly and dont clean it with anything other than top non abrasive leather cleaner
  5. Thats pretty much how it will play out, the cost of the upgrade is dictated pretty much by Apple themselves as originally O2 werent allowed to subsidise them. They can now but not sure they will with a brand new model, so a lot of it will likely be down to your monthly spend as to how much the upgrade costs, but it wont be cheap
  6. Sure we can squeeze another in, so PM H5 as M350ZB says
  7. Nice one chap! Just hope the car was level when you made the plates level
  8. 3mm is loads of tread! If you shred that up just on the Wales run, your driving will likely get you a Honestly do not worry, just get them changed when you get home. 3mm should be good for at least a couple of thousand miles in my experience.
  9. +1 - will take you ages to find out where though Numberplate is straight this time though
  10. It will only effect the premium you are on. I.e. if you add your brother to your car and you crash your car, his premium is unaffected (on his car). If you add him and he crashes your car, your premium will go up if you chose to keep him on your premium. If you chose to drop him from the premium the following year, it has no effect. Hope that makes sense. It only effects the premium they are on.
  11. +1 - the slot will be for the tolls is my guess too Need pics to confirm
  12. Make sure when you break them in you do it properly. They should really stink and might even smoke. I did mine half heartedly first of all and they really squeaked, but now done right they are fine
  13. I like a mixture of proper twisties and more open bends and some nice strights thrown in. I think they call it a race track What are you asking though, whats more fun or whats best to test a car? As Jay seems to be talking about testing a car but the original post is about whats more fun. Twisties are the most fun bit, but you need a mix to keep it interesting
  14. Might have been asked before, but how does it cope with stone chips? I'd quite fancy getting mine done as I commute so much and fancy a nice colour like red or white, but my car is chipped to buggery! Wouldnt want dimples all over the place but equally dont want to have to respray those bits just to cover it up
  15. By yours I assume you mean your bosses? Otherwise you really should have a better car than a Zed! Thats more than mine and the missus insurance for the year! Almost enough to be my insurance for 2yrs!
  16. Cute little dog Wont stay like that long I wouldnt expect! Dont show Amanda, she might try and steal it
  17. Would get your suspension checked out quick smart mate, you dont know what damage that has done to other bits
  18. Was it a carrot? Nah, a carrot only gets you 2BHP
  19. +1 He has a very intersting and individual style, mostly trials but some flatland and BMX thrown in the mix too, makes for some awesome moves!

    Glen Fruin Road

    Fortunately, I dont get sound at work, so I think I've saved on your passenger and his "extravagence"! Lovely scenery, but I wouldnt rate that as a driving road, just too open and straight for me. Weather and views looked cracking though! And some of those bikers need to learn road handling skills, they were far too close to the white lines!
  21. Did you purchase from Nissan? I had a Nissan extended warrenty and it was covered. They had to get an assessor out though as it was more than £500. Any hassle off Nissan and I'm more than happy for you to use my car as an example of getting the BCM replaced. Not the same circumstances, but still, it shows its covered
  22. I have 4 mods going on today - new tyres And full geometry setup too. Also added a little mod that Martin gave me at PH Sunday Service, will post pics later, should add atleast 10BHP
  23. Depends if you can make it up the bridge over the circuit to get in-field
