Whats your MPG!!
oh... It's a TT...

Whats your MPG!!
MPG is a good indication of the engine health as well... If you don't go stupid with it, it shouldn't be far off the average! And I'm scared to death of fuel leaks, so variations in mpg without a plausible reason should be investigated... I get a steady 20mpg with some spirit driving now and then... It's hard to resist boost! :D

Carmad 89 or 99 spec????
spoilerless... And use up the money for a 99 front! ;)

Massive difference tyres make.
I guess my slicks are grabbing a little bit better... My problems are more aquaplanning related... It doesn't take much to have the rear floating about... Other than that, I just a matter of having some sense with the right foot... But yes, dangerous never the less and I bet your thinking: "Yeah, I thought the same and ended going backwards anyway!"

Goodyear F1 at the front and Toyos at the rear. Thing is the rears are now pretty much slicks... And on the wet... Well... I can have wheel spin in 4th doing 80mph as soon as boost kicks in... But it feels completely dangerous... I don't go over 100mph on a wet road (on a straight line) and if there is any standing water, I don't go over 50... So I might give those Falken a try! :)

Conzult and windows 7
Guys, the issue here might be 32bit or 64bit version. No so much a problem if it is Vista or 7. To be on the safer side, go for 32bit. 64bit version (has someone pointed out) can run 32bit applications in compatibility mode but it is not granted that it will run without issues. Best of luck.

We're all scr***d in the UK!
Humm... That's rather nice... :) Maybe I should move in as well! The houses the government arranges usually have garages? :D Please, read it ironically. I do feel your pain... Lots of similar stuff around here... Like wealthy company owners having scholarship support for their kids because they only declare minimum waige... And the likes...

Hi a Z virgin

I'm not a registered member so I can't do too many things around here... Which is a pain, but I also cannot pay registration on every damn forum that wants one... I understand, everyone has bills to pay... Enough rant... Left you a email about the exhaust... And interested in the carbin structs... If they are still available... Anyway, sorry to hear you're leaving the z32 behind... Have fun with the NSX... It is a icon!

New Propshaft and Gearbox Mount
Just to let you guys interested in having new drive shafts that I ordered mine from Shaftmasters. It is a aluminum unit for a 2+2 that came for $369 with no core charge. They are highly regarded as a quality product. To me, it just sounds as a better deal than Z1... Here is the link for the 2+2 TT manual: http://www.shaftmasters.com/30twtuma2219.html If you're curious, shipping to Portugal (UK would be roughly the same I guess) was $79 including insurance.
