  1. My rear one has stopped working, just as the lovely British weather appears
  2. It was 294bhp prior to the 06 Airbox Mod and Berk HFCs. So they added just under 8bhp but cost a fair whack for bhp/£! Also gained 17lb/ft throughout with those mods as well, much flatter torque curve after the second remap at RS Tuning.
  3. I'm running a 2004 (276bhp) zed and I've just broken 300bhp, now running 301.6bhp to be precise but to get to that the car has had: Up-Rev Plenum Spacer Japspeed K2 Exhaust Japspeed Y-Pipe Berk High Flow Cats 2006 Airbox Mod A couple of them were on the car before I bought it but I'm sure you can look around at prices to see how much plus labour that will have cost to get just a smidge over 300bhp! Probably £1500+ in total. Think it was 270 or 274bhp stock, so 27-30bhp increase overall
  4. Confusing at first but a huge step forward for them. There's so much depth to it it will take weeks to figure it all out! Scary from the point of view it has everything you've ever put on there but good to have it all on one central point.
  5. They're there in mine so it can't be from a previous ICE install.
  6. All you need is to plug in the 3 white cables and the antenna. Very easy to do!
  7. I've just sold my Bose headunit on here and I was told by the buyer that he will be sending it to these guys to get divorced for £35+VAT - http://www.mapleaudio.co.uk/

    Ford Fiesta

    Just advertised on Pistonheads - http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3105335.htm Ford Fiesta Zetec 1.25 (1997) Good condition 5 door manual petrol Fiesta. Under 63000 miles on the clock. All the usual power steering, heated front and rear windows, electric windows, electric side mirrors, sunroof and alloys. MOT and Tax until end of November. £700
  9. Considered the JVC 740 or 840? Just installed an 840 and it's been perfect so far. Car Audio Centre price matched it on Amazon so it was only £330 + £8 delivery.
  10. Got the exhaust alignment issue sorted. They charged me £33 and said it was down to the poor fitment of the K2. Which is fair enough as I know it isn't the best fitting but just irritating that it was perfect when it went in and if it had to be pulled back a 1/4" then it would still be perfect, just a 1/4" further back! Installed my new head unit at the weekend as well, JVC AVX-840 and installed my custom made iPhone 4 mount in the cubby. Will put some photo's of it up later this evening, looks bloody good if I do say so myself! Also took the car to RS Tuning to get it remapped after the Berks + '06 airbox mod, gained 17lb/ft and went from 294bhp to 301.6bhp. Will post photos of that up in the thread later as well. He said it was running very lean with the Berks so good job I got it done! Only cost £100+VAT for an hour on the RR plus petrol to Leeds and back.
  11. Out of stock! The internet nerds must have gotten hold of them all!
  12. Bought the 840! Managed to get it for £331 and then £8 postage. Will be installing it this weekend. Any tips on installing a headunit? I remember reading somewhere there's a certain way of doing it? ie remove new headunit cage and use existing one, or something along those lines?
  13. I just bought their other game, Game Dev Story. Remember hearing about it ages ago so thought I'd grab it. Good so far but after playing the demo for an hour it says "buy the full version now", which you do, but then you have to start again Will definitely be getting this in a few days, had £50 of Apple vouchers given to me when I left my job a few weeks ago, time put them to good use!
  14. How are the Hanook's rated? Just been reading reviews on http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Article/2010-Auto-Express-Winter-Tyre-Test.htm but no mention of the Hanooks.
  15. What are these like in terms of lasting when you're driving between snowy/wet/icey/dry roads? My commute is 9 miles each way and the route I take would probably be a mixture of ice/slush/dry patches.
  16. I was about to say, since when did British Gas engineers turn up on the job in zeds
  17. Check with that, when we moved to our new house we got the landlord to terminate everything. Changing the phoneline to Sky saved us money on the line rental and unlimited downloads was win win. Depends what you're after though! I wouldn't get Sky internet if I didn't have Sky TV.
  18. If you want cable go for Virgin. If you want ADSL then go O2 or Sky. Sky doesn't require you to be on their phone line, I'm sure of it. If you download a lot, then Virgin/Sky are the best as O2 has a cap and restrictions on whenyou can download. Sky is unlimited 24/7. Virgin is capped unless you get the top package I think. Also, checkout topcashback/quidco for Virgin/Sky/O2, they normally have HUGE cashback on them making it very cheap internet for the year!
  19. This might be a stupid question, and I'm sure it's answered in the OP but I wanted to check before ordering the cables. To fit a JVC I need the ICT 29-645 or ICT 29-674? The descriptions of both products say for use with an aftermarket head unit but is the 674 for an aftermarket Bose headunit where as the 645 will work with any other make?

    Bose head unit

    How much have these gone for in the past? I was going to get a new headunit in a month or so but with being able to sell the bluetooth adaptor and the Bose headunit I might do it sooner if they're worth anything half decent! My Bose is in perfect working order, no skipping tracks or scratches/marks on it that I've noticed.
  21. I'm off there Saturday 17th for a remap. Fitted HFC's and the 06 airbox mod, was 294bhp before so hoping it breaks 300!
  22. Good to see that offers back! Stuck £75 in a few days ago but should be going shopping again next week. I might put the shopping through as 2 separate payments as we normally spend over £120, get a cheeky extra voucher

    My new car

    Looks Pretty sure I could stick my head up that tailpipe!
  24. Been waiting months for BF3, hopefully all the kiddies and chumps stick to running around MW3 trying to find exploits!
