Yeah the screens seem like an after thought but even new BMWs similar jus pokin out the top of the dash..

Love the S probably why I like the new c it's a compressed version almost and the headlights / taillights big step up to me

yeah when i was at the Mercedes dealership the screens were the thing which made me question the interior..

if it had been integrated into the dash more, even have it slide up or something it would be perfect!

That's the new trend with screens not sure why.. Integrated is way nicer although perhaps a benefit is if they stuff up replacement / repair would have to be significantly less.

I don't like it but can't say it bothered me when I was in the a45 amg

I would think that an integrated screen which is well designed could be replaced cheaper...

If the screen, or the control unit, stuffs up... Remove the dash surround (2 mins), unscrew screen, remove plug from back of it and put in new screen (or control unit)

An external screen is more complicated / expensive to make, as it's got its own facia/bezel/surround/mounts... Might be able to be swapped over a few minutes faster, but you'd have to replace the whole unit instead of just the screen itself.

Looks much better in the dash tbh... And I'd imagine up where it is in that pic it would get a lot of sun glare.

I am glad car companies are going for higher mounted displays though, looking away from the road is never a good thing.

does car even need a screen?

Sat Nav, Reverse Parking Camera, etc, etc... They're all "must have" features these days. In the performance models, I'd hope that there would be other cool things shown like on a GTR, temperatures, warnings etc. But that said... looks like in the pic shown there's another LCD display between the gauges in the cluster anyway.

Don't know if it's already been mentioned but you can all permanently remove your rego stickers from today :)

Wooooooooot!!! No more hideous colours making things look blergh :D

forgot about this, yay

still struggling to get my windscreen free from massive streaks at sunset, anyone recommend a good window cleaner? the stuff I have at home is awesome for bathroom mirror, but just does not like the car.

    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
