    Cayenne GT3 RS

    Is that not the Transiberia rally edition one?
  2. Topic locked, as we're not daft enough to not realise what is being asked/suggested here. Just to be absolutely clear, there can be no sharing of copyrighted material via this forum. Ta EDIT: Thread unlocked as Tarmac has now made it clear he wants an original legit copy only. I've left the thread as-was though for clarity.
  3. Looks like it wants to be a C63 AMG, which I don't particularly like either.

    decat info

    Does it just disable the light for when the code would be for a faulty cat/s, or does it disable it full stop?

    decat info

    You need something to lift the O2 sensors out of the gas flow partially, whether that's something that comes built in with the decats or something you add yourself is up to you. You will definitely need to replace them for the MOT unless you know a friendly tester. AFAIK there is nothing Uprev can do about this.
  6. Out of interest what have you been offered then?
  7. DVDs aren't invincible, some of my early ones have pitted and rotted away I had to buy a brand new copy of Terminator 2 but it wasn't in the swanky metal case
  8. DVDs? What is this, the 90's? Go and get a couple of cheap HDs, I got both of mine for £80.
  9. I have a 2TB drive which backs up all my stuff nightly, and then a further 2TB drive which backs up the back up weekly. Lost a HD full of music once due to mechanical failure, and although I managed to get 95% of the stuff back by re-ripping off an iPod, I'm not making the same mistake twice.
  10. If you're after a new filter I think I've got a spare one in the garage, you're welcome to it for nowt if you want. It's not OEM but it is a quality one, I used to use them on my old car before I sold it and bought a batch of them.
  11. The second she mentions you flashing I suspect you're screwed, as because it can be misconstrued that's why it's not recommended. Don't get me wrong, I do it too and I'd be just as mad as you are, but sadly that still doesn't make much difference.
  12. I was going to recommend Camskill anyway if it wasn't
  13. The first thing I did to my Zed was to install a Popcharger. Is the grammar in the thread title annoying the bejesus out of anyone else or is it just me??!!
  14. Japspeed have no idea what they're talking about. It'll fit all Zeds, I had one on my old car. Well, I say fit, given their horrendous variations in build quality it might fit.
  15. Sounds fair to me. Where's that from?
  16. I hope you had a witness else I can see this going down as 50/50 when she starts claiming that you flashed her across.
  17. Yellowstuff, no question. Incredible pads for the money.
  18. Tyres then brakes. You'll go quicker having spent £1K on either of those than spending £1K on anything else, maybe excepting driver training.
  19. 30mph in 6th is pushing it, any acceleration and the engine labours like buggery which isn't good. It will take it though. I used to stick to the old 'one gear for every 10mph' rule and it never saw me wrong. It's one thing to potter around in 6th at 30mph for fuel consumption purposes, but it's bad driving practice as you can then leave yourself in a situation when you really need a quick blast of acceleration to get yourself out of a pickle.
  20. Yup, or 15 kg or nearly two and a half stone in other money. It's also unsprung weight, which makes far more difference to the handling than sprung weight

    What RPM?

    600rpm seems a tad low but I don't think it's anything to worry about really. Anywhere between 600-800rpm is fine.
  22. Gloves? When working on a car? - 10 manliness - 5 testosterone level + 5 big girly woofter

    Stability

    Unless you have access to a wind tunnel or some serious track time and datalogging equipment, you'll never really know exactly what wing size you need for high-speed. Also worth bearing in mind that they're needed to generate downforce through a high-speed corner, not just a straight line: Look at the Veyron when it goes into it's max speed mode, all spoilers stay firmly down and it drops itself to the floor. That's what you're after for high speed stability in a straight line.

    Stability

    Road surface, tyre pressures, tyre tread, crosswinds etc. Loads of variables really.
