damn.. cant find a blutooth adaptop anywhere for obd1

would this work to relay the signals to the android app?

OBD connector to usb - usb to usb adapter - then your usb data cable to phone

or something like this: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/High-Quality-micro-USB-USB-Female-Cable-USB-OTG-N900-/190507971718?pt=AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item2c5b28f486

not sure you can but why do you want to? you can get it to delete the email but not mark as read

personally myself i use windows live mail for hotmail and sort emails by conversation to all duplicate subject email get put into a bank then i can select the last email from that conversation and visit thread the right click and select all press delete and then its all good

Haven't justified buying a SSD yet given the amount I don't use the computer.

So I picked up a $100 Seagate Momentus XT 500gb. Damn its made an impressive difference to how windows boots, shuts down and generally runs. Noticeably smoother.

Recommended for those who'd rather sink $$ in to something else than a computer but want a smoother running less crunching/clunky computer. :) All though an extra $100 will grab an SSD these days. :P

Yeah I am going to pick up a couple of Momentus soon too .... I currently have 2 x 64Gb SSDs as my Windows and Program files drives (non-RAIDed), and whilst the speed is great, every time I need to load a file off one of my storage drives the pause is unbearable. It is not a huge pause, but with a hybrid drive I would buy 2 and mirror raid them - that way I could fit my Win7 install, program files and current Torrent data on the 'one' drive, which I think would be significantly faster than my setup is now.

Have you done any read/write tests Joel?

I'm not sure benchmarks are going to show how these drives perform. They only have 4G SSD which the drive stores regularly accessed data. From what I have read all writes go to the mechanical side. So things like random reads etc may not be that great unless they are run several times over. I'll see if I can find the article where I read this.

EDIT: here it is

^^ yeah i half did that upgrade i have a Gigabyte GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3 $139 and a i7 2600k $330 and 8gb of gskill sniper ram 1333 $69

it is a lot more faster to boot into windows now and i only have blue and green WD drives both 7200rpm

i will look into SSD one day just not really sure what route i should take

    • Sadly we have something in common, our Skyline's like blowing up electrically 馃槩
    • So, no videos, but, the FAB9 Elite manifold and 68mm Bosch throttle bodies are in stock, but, not the rear part of the air box The FAB9 rear airbox thingie is made with a 3" intake pipe, to suit the 3" intake pipe size of a 68mm throttle body  When they get some more in stock is currently unknown as I'm waiting for FAB9 to reply with a ETA on resupply, my assumption is they outsource their plastic printing stuff to "china", and with the current "tariff war" going on in 'Merica it could be on hold for an undisclosed time Should I pull the pin on the Intake and throttle body, and wait for the airbox?????, that's what I'm thinking... 1. Would the standard 2.75" OEM intake on the air box really be that much of a restriction compared to the 3" naturally aspirated?????? 2. If I don't get the 3" FAB9 airbox fitted at the same time as the intake and throttle body will it need a retune, when/if it eventually turns up?????? As I'm impulsive, to a fault, decisions will be made within....."what's the time now"???....let's say 12 hours......LOL
    • yeah its just so expensive nowadays and its easy to lose motivation very quickly when you start adding up the costs. I acquired the car from a collector in Melbourne and was lucky to get the opportunity to buy something already completed.  I looked at a proper resto and your paying over 300-400K for a proper one (nut and bolt) so this one to me seemed like a much better option! Car is in private storage and for serious buyers, welcome to come see it/drive it in person (photos don't do it justice). 
    • nice to see a proper resto, instead of the usual half arsed attempts where the owners wont even replace crappy floor mats
