Ekona

Indeed, I'm using the IDA-X305i head unit along with their data cable

It should do. Certainly I can leave my 3GS connected to the car and use the iPod functionality to get the music through the speakers whilst using another app (not when driving, obviously!) so I see no reason why the TT app on an iPhone4 should be any different.

To add on to this, upon my travels round yonder interwebs I came across these little beauties... When I get some spare cash I may treat myself and give this a go I think. It's not going to work out any cheaper than the Stillen kit if I use proper Samco single-ply ducting hose (which I intend to) I think, but I'll get a decent bit of satisfaction out of doing it my way I hope.

So would it make you feel bad if I told you that we've had loads of sunshine down here this year (this week excluded it seems!) and we've got no chance of a hosepipe ban as our reservoir is almost completely full? I'd have told the council bloke to get lost, but probably in slightly less nice terms

Can I be cheeky and get two places? Will of course pay for both 1) Envy Valeting (Tim) 2) SpursMadDave 3) glrnet 4) Ekona 5) Ekona +1

Slightly related, in this month's Total 911 magazine they've done the first ever (to theirs and my knowledge) pro car photoshoot in a magazine using only an iPhone4 and some app or other. Still looks fantastic, and right up with their usual quality shots.

Ooh, might pick that up, cheers mate.

Not good mate, will keep my fingers crossed for a good result for you.

I'll have a read of that thread now, cheers Stu

Anyone put any ducting to the front brakes on their Zed and would like to share some tips for doing so? I fancy putting some on mine for track work as it's a cheap 'n' easy mod (I hope!) but was wondering if there's any specific details to take note of, like size of ducting used or a particular route it should or shouldn't go? No worries if not as I'll have a go anyway and take pics or something for a guide, just be good if I can pinch the knowledge of someone who's been there and done it! As always, any notes/comments appreciated chaps.

If they give the 'Yota version a decent non-turbo engine, or give it enough room to put something interesting in there (2GR-FE would be my choice, should be a piece of cake to do) then it could well be my next car.

Not likely, you'll fail the noise tests. I kept them out for the road but they had to go in for track. It was still very loud, hence why I changed back to the stock exhaust as I love my trackdays too much.

Yeah, because we don't have that already. /thread drift

You really don't want to be getting brake fluid on ANYTHING. Paint and skin are possibly the worst two. As long as you were quick you'll probably be fine.

www.carlimits.com Go see Walshy on a 4-person day, worth every penny and I promise you'll come away a better driver as well having a huge giggle whilst doing it.

I'm a plumber too, and even I can use a space bar 252 at the fly can't be right, surely you mean at the wheels?

You can book an MOT whenever you want, you just can't have it until a month before

Worth doing if you know you've got something that will fail, otherwise it's a lovely clever piece of marketing to get you to pay over £85 just for an MOT. Bear in mind if they find anything wrong you're only going to get the crap as a replacement, not OEM (i.e. tyres, brakes etc).

DING That's only an Autocar knock up, which are almost always miles off target. Whatever they do with it in the end, it'll look miles more interesting than the Toyota version going on recent performance.

Some of the specialists might, try CCI or REIS. Personally I'd try them (and others) anyway to get your premium down, and I certainly wouldn't pay it monthly as they rape you like that. Even chucking it on a credit card and paying it off over a couple of months will see you better off.

Left foot braking is very hard to do in a normal car with just seatbelts, but try it in one with harnesses: You're held back and don't put more pressure on the pedal as momentum takes over, and you can have full control over the pedal.

You would hope so with a more modern chassis, better tyres and more power.

Pretty sure the 350Z in Forza is the 276 model. I had to give it a bit more power in-game to emulate my own car

Your so grumpy what?

Maser 4200. The 3200 is hideous in terms of both keeping the thing on the road and how often it breaks, but the 4200 has the very few of these issues. If you're considering the 3200, then you have to consider the 4200. That said, a decent 996 C2S is going to be the best drive.
