It depends, of course there are "no name" brands that are $200-300, but alot of the more expensive gear (than the no-name stuff) isn`t sold in Australia so it`s hard to guage if it`s a bargain.

I`m not full bottle on Car Audio, so in the next few weeks (if you guys are keen for Jap audio gear) it`ll be a very steep learning curve!!! But it`s all good... I enjoy it.

By "mob" do you mean mobile phone, Soulja?

Well, basically I`ll get anything, you name it. But bear in mind, there`ll be Japanese instructions, Japanese script on the controls (alot like your car really!) and no warranty.

yeah i ment mobile phone. i want to buy 2 mobile phones (one for me and one for my gf so we can sent each other pics ect). The one i was looking at is the Panasonic Gd-88, there r some more but i can't remember the names now.

Umm and for the mp3 player i was thinking something like an I-Pod or something that can stored alot of songs (somthing around 1gig or music) and for the mini-disc the sony netmd

Sounds badass. Rezz, can give us an example of what kind of price point comparison we'll be looking at for the non-mainstream japanese go fast bits?

I don`t really want to give too much away, but seeing as you asked, how does:

3-inch Cat-back stainless steel "Apex" style exhaust from Bori`s Factory for $550 plus freight sound? (R32/33/34)

Japanese phones don`t work on the Aussie network, Soulja. Believe me, I`ve tried!

About the MP3 player and the MD, I`ll have to look into it. I`ll keep you posted...

The Panasonic Gd-88 has

Network bands supported EGSM 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz (tri-band) . Which means it works in all countrys.

Most of the new phone have "Tir-band" so they work in most countries :) :) ,

Rezz if u could get me that phone i would give u a big kiss, as i dont see my gf that much on weekdays and getting photos of her would be sooo nice!:) :)

Thats all good, but someone has to setup the phone. Like key in all the local area network stuff etc. As it`s all in Kanji I doubt many people in Oz could do it?

If it was easy, EVERYBODY would have this...

Real-time video link phone calls, with picture in picture, so you can see who your talking to and they can see you.

    • I find I am using the MX5 for everything except long overnight cruises with Jackie, or, if picking up the kids to go somewhere, the SS has so much more room inside, and is much more comfortable if your going to be doing Hwy driving for 6-8 hours And the MX5 isn't bad in stop go traffic for a manual transmission car, whilst the clutch kit has been upgraded from stock, it is still light, and also not having a stupidly light flywheel in it helps as well, I've spent alot of time sitting on the M5, M4 and M7 stuck in traffic when plodding around the Greater Sydney Region in it Another benefit is MX5's are not really a car that gets stolen, you can pretty much park it anywhere, and it will still be there when you return
    • I can totally get why you like it for that sort of commute. I was thinking BoganDore because it's such a lazy drive, for things like stop start traffic.   I used to do over an hour in stop start shit from one side of Bris to the next, twice a day. My choice of car was larger displacement, with an auto. Basically for torque in low rpm/very low speed, and no clutch pedal. But loved a fun manual for the weekends, which the partner has (plus had the LandCruiser too for other fun drives). I now have an EV as a work car, and I tell ya what, ultimate daily driver, especially if youre out of energy, like I often am after work. I don't even need to touch the brake pedal   That said, I'm presently rebuilding the Liberty GTB to get it setup for weekend drives and track abuse! So small high revving turbo engine with 6 speed cog swapper!   But for your style of commute, I'd probably take the MX5 too!   For those choices, I'm ignoring fuel economy. Because I know how atrocious V8 daily life is for fuel from when I used to daily a manual SS, ha ha. Hence why I know I love the daily rumble of a V8
    • II know what u are saying after 9 years of hibernating my stock engined  110,00km gtt I got it registered 2 weeks ago. Took it for a drive a couple of days ago and some fresh bp fuel, I just couldn’t stop grinning and dreaming of when I will start my build thread. its just such a primal man feeling many forget to enjoy I wish u so much enjoyment with your little racer mate
    • People just don't understand how good MX5's actually are and how fun they are to drive, park, manuever. You feel like you have got some fun cheat code, while everyone else is sitting in their luxobargeSUV like normies who missed the point of living. It really is that noticable. As long as you/your stuff fit, and you're comfortable (they are), a MX5 is the best car on earth to daily around.
    • Before and after, headlight's done along with bumper.
