dmstewart Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 Hi all, Posted on here a few weeks saying that I'm looking to buy, and on Tuesday I picked up my wonderful Zed. The weather has detracted a little from being able to test it out thoroughly but I've managed to give it a good go (almost straight into a bush coming out of a slippery corner...). This is my first RWD, having owned type-r's etc previously. The car sounds absolutely fantastic (the induction kit adds a little as well) and even though a lot of people complain about the cabin build quality, I have been pleasantly surprised - had a 300 mile journey home in it and found a very comfortable, driver focused place to be. Particuarly impressed with the seats and driving position. The view out the rear is about as useful as the FA. Whilst the BOSE system is much better than the stock system I have had on previous cars, I think I'll be looking to replace in time, especially as I want to gt the iPod connected. I'll get some pictures up shortly and will be interested in joining in with a meet at some point this year. Cheers, D. Quote
cmck13 Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 Welcome and watch that rear end in this weather. Quote

Search on here for the BOSE hack which will allow you plug in an iPod. And Quote

Welcome along Build quality of the cabin isn't that great really, but as you've said its a very comfortable car to drive, I don't think I've ever heard a single complaint about it and we have some very tall and large guys here!

EH 370z Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 Congrats on the new car I would think you could get an interface for the Ipod failry cheaply to get you up and running BTW Quote
M13KYF Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 there is a guide/mod in the guides section to connect a ipod to the bose, requires a bit of soldering Quote
spursmaddave Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Lots on here about Bose replacement but you can do the iPod hack for starters Quote
