Mazda MX-5 Road Test

November 30th, 2006 by Sze | No Comments | Filed in Transportation, Video

mazda_mx5.jpg

Fifth Gear’s Tom Ford takes out the all-new Mazda MX5 for a road test. The Mazda MX5 has a 2L DOHC inline-4 engine which produces 170hp @ 6700rpm and 140 lb-ft torque @ 5000rpm.
Tom Ford drives the Mazda MX-5 Roadster Coupe. Gone are the days of storing your roof in your garden shed – the brand new MX-5 now comes with a folding hard top. Cars with this type of roof offer more security and comfort when up, but seem to swallow all the boot space when down.

The new mechanism adds only 37kgs to the kerb weight of the car, and the 2.0 litre sport still has a top speed of 131mph and can hit 62mph in 7.9secs. Have Mazda found the perfect solution?

Upgrades-PS3-Hard-Drive.jpg

T3 shows you how to upgrade PS3 hard drive in less than 2 minutes. Watch the video after the break.
See, the PS3’s storage is hidden just under a flimsy plastic flap on its side, secured in a cradle by just five screws. One to hold the cradle in place, and another four to affix the hard disk to the cradle itself.

Whipping it out took our crack team of gadget experts a little under two minutes, while returning the bracket with a larger disk in place was even quicker.
