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

    • Haha thanks everyone, I'll take everyone's suggestions into consideration. If I do eventually choose a car ill post it here update on the mods I do.
    • I found the ingredients at larger amounts from a Coffee Shop. 1kg Citric Acid for €8.50 500g Baking Soda for €2.50 I tried it out tonight distilled water (I got from my ACs) and dish soap. It does get bubbly with dish soap. In just two hours the hanger has improved significantly and rubbing against any remaining rust seems to flake it off. I'm going to leave it a little bit longer and see how it goes. I have read that someone even used this solution in an ultrasonic cleaner to clean a seized water pump which brought it back to life.
    • If you like more modern stuff than the R series, you should check out a V37 400R, they are pretty mod friendly
    • Haha luckily we don't have emissions, inspections, or any laws against power adders here. They only thing they somewhat keep an eye out for are ridiculously loud exhausts. 
    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild.
