    Altezza?

    Nah they are very different from an IS200 the japs always want something faster then the rest of the world... the Altezza goes as an RS200 also. Engine spec is 100% different since they use 4 cyl and 200/210 hp versus 150 (I think) for the IS200 (and 6cyl) so it's a bit sportier then an IS200 overall. Not had a single problem with her and even had it running E85 at one stage Inside the RS200 doesnt come with leather in the early version and think its an optional extra for the later ones. Not sure you guys bothered getting them in as grey imports over there. Here is some 'blunt' info: http://eng.motorsporlari.net/car/tech_s ... ake=Toyota I have the paddle shifter version one so lost 10hp straight off but in traffic its a dream Imported it myself from Japan (first of many)
  4. I here you have been a good boy too
  5. not when you got over 40gb of work stuff on it Should have had seperate partitions to save stuff to, then you can just format the Windows drive and start again I have never been able to upgrade sucessfully to a new version of Windows, something always goes wrong or doesnt quite work right meaning the shiney new version doesnt run as quick as its meant to. Always meaning I end up doing a clean install again mmm kinda bit more then that using some encryption stuff mounted onto a different drive. That worked too actually. 1 and only upgrade I've done that worked and rather do a clean install but this one was so 'young' I didnt feel the need to. A
  6. love it never tried in vista...
  7. is the WIN+TAB a new feature? Love it! I'm going to be so much less productive now! A;
  8. got my free dell upgrade from vista to win7 from ups today, took me 2hours to upgrade not joking. Some ammount of pretesting and uninstalling of software I had to do! Prefer fresh install but wasnt an option for two reasones. one its an upgrade and two I had to much work stuff to be moved. So far its looking pretty sweet.

  10. Just got my free upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 kindly handed over from UPS some two hours ago... it states it takes about two hours to run the upgrade. KID YOU NOT its still sitting there ticking over Any good or bad things about Win7? What I've used it (beta) it looks WAY better then Vista woulndt have bought the laptop if I didnt get a free upgrade! A.

    Altezza?

    Anyone out there had one? Have one? I got one and since I'm working less and less I've been 'caught' (litterly too) in it more then once and let the Z sit (used to be a daily driver) it's cheaper to drive and nippy enough around town. Have been trying to sell her for the last year now, not pushed to give her away to silly owner or for silly money. Might just hold on to her
  12. whats the wheel's like? Bonnet looks good... hmm its close to crimbo too...
  13. welcome....
  14. Great stuff! Congrats! (abit soon to be looking for the cruise control settings though?) Wish I had cruise on mine actually... WAY to easy to push the pedal down and woosh ur over the speed limit.
  15. looking forward hearing the results of this one.
  16. 20quid? just kidding glws and free bump.
  17. If I wouldnt have to pay VRT for it I'd get it! gwls, pain in arse loosing the job... at least its looking like you lads over there are picking up? A/
  18. like the comments mark, now tell us how we go down the E85 route
  19. just got 4 points more on my license so maybe its a bad idea... Just kidding re bad idea let me know how you get on! A.
  20. +1 on the sound on clips, before I changed exhaust (rear pipes) It was a mad sound at 2k rpm but on clips with different camera setups it doesnt come through! Think it's to low Hz for it to be picked up or my laptop didnt understand what to do with it! (might try that again actually) love the sound as much as I can hear and perfect delight noise from the driver at the end 10hours... some cost though, might go down that route next year if I'm bored!
  21. I thought group buy ment the 'trader/seller' needed say 10 people on a list from 1-10 (no specific order) and once the 10 was in the 'trader/seller' will actually PLACE the order for the units for the agreed group price... didnt think sellers keep stock that would be mental way of trying to get prices down. my 2 cent, also if you're not happy what did the japspeed lads tell you? Just get a full custom one Think Magnatec do a 'full' single (4") for 1200$ A.
  22. Do you get tickets if on the phone in the UK? Got my 4th ticket in the post the other day for talking on the mobile while sitting blank still in traffic so 8 points ticking... 6 for speeding (3 stops)... neither of them in the Z anyway... dont mind the speeding ones but sickened about the phone one! A.
