It also sounds absolutely shite. You lose all the sound quality from the music, which is why the only decent solution is to replace the head unit with something decent. I tried the tape adaptor, I tried the transmitter, and the only decent solution is the expensive one unfortunately.

You can get TomTom, Nav-wotsit and all the others on the JesusPhone, but they're all very poor due to the lack of battery life and quite crummy GPS used in the phone, and even the most basic TT One would do the job far better. At least, that's what I do having read numerous reviews on them all.

Zoom isn't worth it as it's all done digitally AFAIK: Just do it on your PC/Mac when you get home. For satnav you're probably best off buying a dedicated unit right now as none of the current gen really does it all well. For finding stuff nearby just use the Maps app and search via the in-built function. Power/file management I haven't a clue, sorry! There's probably a ton of websites out there that will have the mosquito noise as a free MP3/WAV/whatever, download it from there and add via iTunes.

While you're they're you might as well do the lot, certainly no harm in it.

Umm, isn't no.6 actually a VX220 Turbo due to the dark inside of the cluster as opposed to the grey of the NA ones? /geek

If it's a scarcely used fix in cars then it really won't make a difference if it disappears.

I bet they all would've loved a piece of it, as it probably would've been a decent game as the Ukraine are pretty strong at home.

That's for the HD stream, the SD one is free. If you want the HD stream then you're probably better off just paying for the official one. Personally I'm hoping as many people boycott it as possible, if for nothing else to try and make it very unprofitable for anyone to try again in the future.

It'll be free on there, all games are.

How would you know?!

Cosworth filters are quite highly regarded on here, but I wouldn't bother with any additional intake pipes as you won't get anything extra out of them: The stock setup really is that good.

I quite like the AIT Racing one, but the other's just have too many blank spaces in the front for my taste. Ironically the AM one actually looks very nice and suits the lines of the Zed very well, but there's no way I'd ever have something that blatant on my car.

AutobulbsDirect are as good as any, and have a decent selection too. Purchased stuff from them before with no hassle whatsoever.

Horrible, vile, ugly, despicable things. If you want different shape headlights then make them, don't stick crappy bits of plastic over the top of the stock ones and ruin the lines. IMHO, obviously.

Even if it's £26 it's hardly expensive.

It's all relative though: If it costs £100 but keeps the value of the car up by £500 then it's a bargain.

Don't know, have you asked them? The actual service book itself should be relative peanuts, and they should stamp it back up to date for free seeing as how all the records are on computer these days.

Slagathor has now returned from the garage, and I hate it. It's miles too quiet now: How on earth do normal folk put up with a sports GT that sounds so dull? I'm going to have to paint it fluorescent yellow or something just to satisfy the attention-whore in me.

You're better off running with no plate at all, as that carries far less a penalty than defacing a standard one in any way. Run without it for as long as you can, and then when/if you ever get stopped and given a ticking off by the police you just feign innocence and then suck it up and put a proper one on there. Fannying around with smaller size plates just seems a waste of time to me, it's not like it's actually any more legal than not having one at all. *EDIT for terrible your/you're grammar error

It's the only thing keeping me going! Maybe not, I've decided to play with the audio system a bit in the new year, see if I can't coax a bit more noise out of it

Jap release date is 31st of March 2010 confirmed, I'd guess we can expect it here about July time (maybe).

You don't know how right you are, will certainly stop the missus from complaining now

But how much is the turbo kit for that engine going to cost? A good few £K to do it properly, and that's even if the engine and gearbox are built for that sort of power.

For about half of the UK circuits it'll be fine with the bungs in, but it'll fail Bedford on the drive-by and that's one circuit that's close to me that I have always enjoyed driving in the past and want to go back there. 'Tis a shame, but that's the sacrifice I need to make unfortunately. I've thought about getting another exhaust, but then I'll always be chasing the sound that the K1 made and the louder I go the less places I can drive, so I'll just concede defeat on this one.

I'm sure it'll drive well, as Toyota certainly know what they're doing mostly when it comes to designing a decent chassis and Suburu have proved that they're not exactly novices, I just can't see why you'd buy it over anything else. If you want a RWD coupe then you'd buy a BMW/Lexus, if you want a cheap sports car you'd buy pretty much anything else that was actually sporty.
