A wet start ! But the presence of a club teeshirt sends the clouds away! What a neat line up!

Hello all,picked up a lovely 14 plate gt86 in metallic black yesterday. I traded in a 05 350z for it and while i miss the sheer torque and noise of the z i just love the handling,comfort and pure joy of driving this, especially in all the rain and thunderstorms this afternoon......Z wot Z?!?Great forum by the way,been reading all week while waiting to get car. Cheers Pete

Loads I could upload but here are a few that caught my eye!

I tend to watch this Tyre Reviews channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEvB1bmKjPWZ3V1wSdBnXPQ Does real world tests for various tyres and gives honest opinions. Quite often the tests are done on RWD cars and not FWD hot hatches, this does make a difference.

Crisis over! I’ve manage to figure this out myself. FYI for anyone else doing a reversing cam install: 1. The Reverse trigger is not required to be tapped on UK cars. All the US FRS guides tend to tell you to run a cable down to tap into the pink reverse trigger cable in the footwell, but on the UK cars its already connected via an existing pin on the 28pin harness. 2. Some online guides tell you to go into the ‘hidden menu’ on the TAS300 to enable the ‘camera’ option. But this hidden menu doesnt appear to be available on the models without nav. So i didnt do this, 3. If you buy the Genuine Toyota ‘Fit’ kit off ebay, try and confirm beforehand that the version they are going to send you has the 16 pin connector and not the 24-pin connector like I was sent. The 24-pin connector only fits to the SatNav port and looking at the wiring diagram there doesn’t appear to be any pins on this connector that support video input. I can only assume this version of the cable they sent me is for the facelift 2017+ cars with the TAS400. So i had to dismantle the 24-pin harness they sent me and transfer across the two pins into the existing 16-pin connector I had in the back of the headunit already. Now its all up and running beautifully.
