I wouldn't want to go much over 150k tops without doing the chain, but if the deflection on it is still okay then I guess I wouldn't bother. No idea on cost of doing it though.

No probs

OP, when you say you want performance, do you want straight line speed or handling as well? As nice as the RS4 is, a Zed or the obvious M3 (46 or 90) handles better, so would be quicker round a circuit, for example. Regardless, £16K gets you into an M6. That'll demolish a 400bhp Zed or an RS4 without breaking sweat, and plus you have one of the last great V10 road engines in there too.

And V8 noises!

None of them state that at all: They're all WiFi dongles, which is what iOS needs to communicate with. Apple do not allow the use of BT for anything other than a few obvious uses (music streaming, phone calls etc). Android allows the use of bluetooth dongles with OBD2, but iOS requires WiFi. Hence the reason we all linked to WiFi ones All OBD2 apps just let you monitor things, they do not let you change anything. You'd need model-specific software to do that, and I'm not aware of anything like that available for mobile devices.

Bluetooth will not work with iOS and OBDII, you have to use a WiFi dongle. Any old thing will do, I use this one with DashCommand. That'll definitely work on your 370Z, but the others mentioned above will do also. Mine's just cheaper!

That's my one for the year then. Damn, peaked early as usual.

Or leave for work 10mins earlier and take the long route.

Coaster, maybe

Absolutely, I'd rather fight 'right' than fight like they do. Trouble is, that's another reason why they're such a pesky menace.

Don't be daft, that's far too much like common sense for the DVLA!

Thread of the year. Done.

I like that.

They're not bad at all, but compared to an ally 4-pot they're about double the weight.

Ah, if only it would fit! And y'know, not double the weight of the car!

Car is now back from the garage. Handbrake works (hurrah!), both rear calipers replaced again, brake pedal still rubbish. They've now fitted a restrictor into the servo pipe to try and give some feel back, but it's not really done the job. I mean, it's better, but it's not like it should be. Emissions still miles out, so need to get that sorted before I can MOT again. Seriously fed up with this car now.

Is that not the same thing?

But they are fighting until their last breath, that's why the Taliban still exist. They use human shields not because they're cowards, but because it's a legitimate way of defending yourself against a superior enemy. They cannot go toe to toe with the likes of the coalition forces, so instead they have to resort to guerilla warfare. It's the smart thing to do, else you'll get slaughtered. Morally human shields are wrong of course, but what else do you do when your enemy has laser guided missiles?

No, YOU must tax it before you drive home. VED is not transferable between owners. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/vehicle-tax-changes is pretty clear. As soon as you pay for the vehicle, you own it. Odds of you getting caught are tiny, but what if you have an accident and police start investigating? Not worth the risk, imho.

That is a good deal Bloody 340 with a 3L though, unacceptable!

Yeah, I guess Chris & Bob are pretty much a walking encyclopaedia I was just randomly thinking about possible car projects, stumbled across this book, and thought it might come in handy for anything in the future I mght attempt.

Same cable? Tried a different USB port? Try deleting the Sony software (and anything else related to the phone), then just plugging the phone in and seeing what happens. Does it/did it try and install drivers?

On a random note, I bought one of these today. Y'know, just in case. No idea if it's any good or not, but I figured it would be vaguely informative if not entertaining. Don't suppose you've seen the same book matey?

Quite. One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter and all that.

Well, I'd never have picked that as your next motor Colin! Fair play sir, be very interested to see how you get on with this.
