my mate had his 318ti chipped years ago on an e36 coupe and it made a suprising difference. He had the ac schnitzer backbox which i am guessing is expensive but did sound lovely.
I am abit confused as to whether i need to order a seperate fascia panel in order to make this head unit fit neatly?? Danyboyj, did you try using the one that came with the pioneer?
that looks brilliant, what part did you use for the surround of the pioneer head unit? Looks very neat, was this included in the box or is it a different surround you had to source?
Cheers,
Hi mate,
I'm having one of these fitted on friday, can you post some pics when its done as i'm keen to see what they look like.
Can you list the bits i'll need to make it use the steering wheel controls? and how much they cost!
Cheers
the nismo's will look 100 times better!! i prefer the rays to the gt4's...abit boring for me.
Can't believe you have a set of lm gt4s and you are thinking of leaving the std gt4 wheels on it!!
that is correct and to be honest clarkson drives a slk 55 amg and a gallardo spyder which although lovely cars if you saw him driving them with the roof down there is only one word which would come into my mind....****!!!
Really????????

I beg to differ.......

Never heard of that awards but in the press its engines like the audi rs4 and bmw m3 lumps that are kings. I'm not saying its not a great engine i just mean its nothing that revolutionary. In terms of the best v6 sound, i think you may have overlooked the alfa 3.2 v6...now thats a soundtrack!
I got 27k out of a set of 19" goodyear eagle f1's rears...i couldn't believe how long they lasted and the fronts and still on with lots of tread. I drive the car hard and have never ever seen tyre wear like it. My type r used to have new shoes every 9k!!!
the power delivery is very linear and as such its deceptively fast. I agree its not going to win any awards for the engine but in terms of the torque it delivers and the great soundtrack its perfectly suited to the car.
I certainly wouldn't class the elise 111s in the same bracket as the Zed though!
I would be very suprised if you sign on tomorrow being dissapointed with your test drive
wow that is black!!! Looking good, i think they'll suit the GM well. Personally i think a matt finish would look better but be good to see it when they are all done!
