Might just buy the 60mm and use some blu-tac So shit that I can't find an IAT gauge in 60mm
-
Interesting idea, although I'd have no idea how to design that or who would be able to produce it?
-
Both the v1 and v2 have the same style for the arches don't they? v1 v2
-
My gripe about all the wide kits is that they are simply "stick on" arches that only covers half the wheel Not only does it look shit with the rivets in place, you see half the tyre tread where the wide arch just...stops?! Looks crap and will chuck stones down the side of your car which will ruin it even further £5k to make my car look like a 911? No thanks

Unexpected things you Disike about the GT86
smudge replied to remal's topic in GT86/BRZ General Chat
Jesus H Christ If you seriously have to moan about not being able to see our the rear windows for 1% of the time that you actually drive the car then you have far too much time on your hands. Here are some tips... 1. Reverse into your driveway so you can drive out forwards. No need a for rear window 2. Use the rear screen heater. It will clear any moisture within a few minutes. If you don't have a few minutes for whatever reason, leave earlier... 3. There are magical products out there that have hydrophobic properties. This helps shift water 4. Drive the bloody car...water has a tenancy to move when you're at speed... 5. Find something else to do with your time rather than trying to justify the need for a rear wiper by saying it's a safety hazard without one. It's not. Get over it. The shape of the car means that it's not like hatchbacks with a flat rear end where water and crap from the road will stick to the back window. I have never ever needed a rear wiper on this car and even if I can't see out the back, I use my side mirrors. It's what they're there for. The law states you only need 2 rear facing mirrors for a reason... Monday morning rant over -

That's been programmed in as it's not a standard feature to lock once you're on the move Ask @Gringosteve if he can help with changing this, he seems to have a bit of luck with programming the car for little tricks recently -
That's a cracking deal!

Not to 1/100th of a degree like a Hunter system can though...

OK well I'm talking about one that you used to have in your pencil case at school

@Mark@Abbey M/S was trying out a few headers but I'm not sure how far he got with that project

If you can accurately get within 1 degree using a protractor then you have better vision than Superman after a trip to Specsavers

I was thinking a protractor and a piece of paper lol

Yeah I already told Rob and he's aware of it

It doesn't need a rear wiper! Stick the rear windscreen heater on for 2mins and it's clear or here's a novel idea - reverse into your driveway when you get home so you can drive forwards out in the morning like I do? -

Why would it have been cut? -
"Have a go at working it out"? How exactly would you do that?

If you go for the handle and pull it straight away, the car won't unlock You almost need to "hover" your hand in the gap between the handle and the door for a split second to allow the sensor to trigger and unlock the door before pulling the handle Have 0,5 seconds of patience and it will work. If not, take it to the dealer as Rob says -

How is that a problem? -
Seeing the kit up close, it's a HORRIBLE fit. Gaps in the rear diffuser, arches not aligned properly And the paint job was just laughable. Overspray everywhere and looked like it had been touched up with emulsion paint and a brush!
-
He tells me he bought it without HPI checking it and it had outstanding finance. So it was taken off him by the police, the finance company had their asset (albeit a little "different") and then sold it on Whoever is stupid enough to buy a car without checking it first gets what they deserve in my opinion. Not to mention the fact he completely ruined this car. The paint job is even worse up close, looks like a 3 year old finger-painted the rear end
