Just stumbled across this, Made me laugh thought i would share.

It plugs into your cigarette lighter and instanlty save you 20% of you fuel. And saves the earth ahah,

Do people actually buy this shit?

anyone else think it works by lighting a light whenever it gets a certain amount of supply voltage due to increased revs, or by the same technologly as iphones and sensing how hard you accerate, therefore making you more aware of your driving style?

thats the only logical way i think it could help with economy.

nope, totally wrong. i found some stuff on the net about them. have a read/laugh for yourself

NEOSOCKET REVIEW

After scouring the internet for fuel saving products and researching them, I finally found the product that lived up to all I was looking for. All I needed to do was simply plug-in the Neosocket into my car's 12 volt lighter/accessory adapter and I immediately began to save money on gas and improved my fuel economy.

Since very few people have the financial resources to convert their cars to natural gas or fuel cell technology, Neosocket has developed a simple and inexpensive way to improve the cars we already drive. The cost of hybrid cars is not at a level we can all benefit from yet, so clever devices like this will definitely make an impact for the millions of cars already on the road today.

You won't need to go under you hood to install anything or disassemble your interior which is always a plus. It has also been proven safe for use in any car that uses a 12 volt system and will not damage your onboard computer.

HOW DOES NEOSOCKET WORK ?

The Neosocket is a new application of an old technology. Basically, it acts like a small battery that helps your car's electrical system perform better. The small device is fitted with a

capacitor that once plugged in to your 12v adapter is instantly connected to the car's main electrical system. (capacitors are also commonly used to power the electronic flash in cameras)

The capacitor first charges and then discharges the stored electricity (voltage) when there is a heavy energy demand from the alternator. Heavy energy demand (reduced voltage) is caused by using any electrical accessory in your car including lights, windshield wipers, air conditioning, stereo or any combination of them.

Instead of the alternator and battery having to work overtime, Neosocket supplements the required voltage to reduce the load on the electrical system from any accessory that is being used. The reduced electrical demand frees up energy that can be better used to deliver a more constant and steady supply of electricity to the spark plugs and ignition system.

The result is a more efficient and complete combustion of the gasoline which will improve you gas mileage and produce cleaner emissions. You will also get better horse power, acceleration, and a smoother running engine despite daily driving conditions.

The fact is that fuel mileage will fluctuate in any car due to driving habits, lack of maintenance, traffic conditions and many other factors. All these factors will rob the fuel efficiency your car was meant to achieve. The main purpose of Neosocket is to help your engine consistently maintain its designed fuel efficiency despite of all these unpredictable situations.

basically they say it's a capacitor that supplies extra charge to the electrical system, taking strain off the alternator. unless you have a dynamo off a pushbike in the place of your alternator, and a few AA batteries in the place of your car battery, i doubt you will see any difference in fuel economy.

You will also get better horse power, acceleration

seems legit :ninja: , also all p plater should get this if that claim is true.

so whos stepping up and testing this for sau?

surely there has to be some law against shit like this???

i honestly cant believe that 7 people were dumb enough to buy this magical fuel saving dildo

There is a law against it. A law that has very severe consequences...

I believe it is called natural selection.

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.     
    • 5th November if you want to come out for a spin wakfield
