off my brother it got one of them "flash" car wash things... i'll be polite and try it for the spot free finish thing, has a gaurantee with it, so if it don't work, full refund! lol

but, my car's gotta wait till new year before it gets anything! ...... the full respray that's needed!

got a full tank of tesco 99, to flush out the BP ultimate that it didn't seem to like! ran like a complete bag of nails on it!

Now, you see, if I've got that much time that I can appreciate something like this, I prefer to just get out of the car, go into the house and watch/listen to it in comfort and with a beer in my hand.... :p

SatNav is on my iPaq, so I can use it for other things out of the car. Camera is out of the car, so I can take it on holiday and attach it to a headrest mount for track days, DVD is in laptop, which I can use outside of car, do work on, and also do full ECU diagnostics on. I just have a DAB/MP3 head unit on a set of slightly uprated speakers. Sorted. :D :p :wave:

SatNav on a 7" screen is SOOOOooo much better!! :p Trust me....i used to have a Navman and also a pda phone with sat nav......

Camera was just a lil gadget which has proved quite useful as its also infra-red and therefore night vision-ish. Saved me from reversing into a fence once! :rolleyes: Plus i got the guy who fitted it to put a switch in so i can turn it on when on the move too!

And lastly, freeview/dvd/music videos are the ideal way to pass time whilst stuck in traffic / waiting to pick up girlfriend / just general waiting in the car to pick people up!! ;) :cool:

But saying that, i also have all of the above too just in case!! :D

I suppose its a bit like all singing and dancing mobiles. I use mine to make phone calls and text. I use a car to get from point A to point B, with the odd track session.

My PDA has a 4 inch screen :)

I got my car back from the workshop just a few days before xmas with a rebuilt gearbox, and Nismo 1.5way diff installed.

For xmas, my girlfriend got me a pair of Sunline Racing Toe Control Arms :D

Hmm, where do i start. I suppose i took off all the mods and put all standard parts back on :)

Well, there is a whine from the rear diff and i think it grabs a little in cornering. Doesn't sound like a standard diff. Need someone to come out in it who knows about diffs.

Hopefully i'll have a road worthy s15 for a new year present :)

For Christmas the car got it's 100,000km service, some new buffing pads and poishing cloths and a new bov, hoping to fit tomorrow. Hopefully it will give me abot 170kw at the wheels. Last bov is leaking.

My diff does that too.
When turning the car 180 degrees I can hear one wheel skip on the tarmac.
