  2. I think Darren was spot on about the nism in silver and o in red..... totally lost now
  3. Says the man with black wheels in his avatar...... Kettle??? Anyone??? Good numbers Ady, but you've still got that girls gearbox Ian meet sarcasm, sarcasm meet Ian.... not too sure you will get along Sent from the golf club... I can't work you out sometimes...... Cancel that, ALL the time I'm an acquired taste
  4. Nothing like working your way up Sent from the golf club...
  5. Missed you too! No ones missing me Coldel - my theory is you will be back in Zedland at some point The thing about the Vx/Lotus go-karts is that they really grab you in a fanatical way for a certain period of time. With my S1, I was totally obsessed for about 2 years and then it all vanished at a stroke - but I'm still really glad I did it. Having said that, the first person I met at near Backontrack in Guildford had owned his S1 from new and had done 145,000 miles in it....it's the exception that proves the rule. SMD - Winter tyres? Maybe winters next year, I should have pulled my finger out and flogged my spare 20's with tyres, they are on ebay now Sent from the golf club...
  6. Great, thanks guys. Just drawing it all out now I have this input. I am not going to be gaming online so will use HDMI to cat5 connectors for the video/audio. Would it be possible to use a switch to feed multiple devices to multiple tv's. For example, if I have a video/Audio image for PC and Xbox converted to run over cat5 pluged Into a switch. Which then goes off to the lounge and bedroom, can I see my pcscreen in both the bedroom and lounge once I convert the image back to HDMI from cat 5 and into the tv. Not sure if I switch can be used for audio/video over cat5 in the same way it can for Internet CAT5 Won't act as Monitor cable. It's just a network lead that spreads your internet around your house. For example, you if you play the movie on your PC it wont just appear on your TV. http://xbmc.org/ That there is the client you install on your PC, acts as a server, you point it to your files (Movies etc /my documents / movies ) The best way to describe it is to say my setup. -I Have my BT Homebub that connects to my PC. -I then have a Little Android Media Centre next to my downstairs TV. (I don't have a DLNA TV) This is plugged into the TV with a HDMI lead. -The box can run off WIFI or CAT5 (Ethernet) -I downloaded that software onto the PC, pointed to the direction of my movies. -Then on the Media Box, I downloaded the same client. Then with a little setting up, I can point it to my network (Anything on the CAT5) and allow access to my PC's folders (The the client on the PC is pointing to) -Then on my TV I can choose through a list of movies to play. Now essentially, If I was to setup that box to each TV in the house, I'd be able to choose from a different film on each TV at the same time. (I've not done it, but there is no reason why not) With the DLNA Supported TV's i'm afraid I've not played with one, so I can't tell you how to get them pointing to your PC's folders. Hope this helps. DNLA or SMART TVs run exactly the same way except no need for the extra box obviously. My Samsung is easy, as long as it is connected to the same network the network is visible on the TV ie pictures, music or video. Although I have an Apple TV anyway Sent from the golf club...
  7. My place is all wired up and although wireless is fine for most purposes a wired connection is far more stable and capable of much higher speed Sent from the golf club...

  9. Super thanks to Darren for being such a great sport. A big thank you from one foreigner to another, together we are going to take over the world of FI. Darren is an excellent project manager we would have shaved another hour or more in the build if Adrian didn't keep dropping bolts down the engine bay. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk You were lucky, last time he left me down there holding a "live" fuel line. When you said "pass me a bucket quick!" I thought it was just old age

  14. Iv'e got a Meg's G220 only used it once, would be expensive to post though I reckon....
  15. One time when I still had my Zed I filled her up to the brim, drove very carefully all the way from London to Newcastle... I used the cruise control quite a bit and there were several stretches of roadworks, taking all that into account when I got to my sisters in Newcastle and brimmed the tank again. I then kept the receipt and working out that it was roughly 296 miles I then carefully worked out the mileage divided by the number of litres that I needed to fill the tank. I then used the fact that 4.54 litres is roughly a gallon (near enough) and I realised the following....
  16. Yeah I still have respect for the Zed I loved mine and anyone that knows me knows that, I didn't get bored with it either it just got too much to drive day in /day out... Tyres are not much dearer than for the Zed, the MPPS for example are not much more for my 20's than for 350/370z with 19's...
  17. Apart from the tyres I have had it remapped l think it is the 500+lbs/ft of torque that make it a little lively Anyway a barge on rollerskates is fun Sent from the golf club...
