I personally think it makes the sound worse, simply because it is a crappy speaker, probably bust and without a special filter (like you have at home with a centre channel for a home cinema) it'll just confuse the sound quality. Unless you have a 'Dolby' set up it's going to confuse the issue.

Listen to with out. If you think it sounds better with, then upgrade it and it'll sound even better. Worse case scenario, you've blown £20 which you'll get back anyway

Hi,
It's a pity that the self cranking thing is not on the Monaro,is it usual for the engine to become very difficult to start if your fingers slip off during starting.

Normal for all cars as you've just squirted a dod of unburnt of fuel into the cylinders.

Driving home tonight accidentally caught the 'mode' button on the steering wheel, flicks between AM/FM and CD. 2 Monaros and nearly 4 years of ownership and ive never pressed that button once, oops!

Hi all while we are on Tec stuff I want to do the big smoky burn outs but I have 2 traction controls on the Ro L s1 s/c. A race logic and the standard one if I turn the factory one off the race one seems to take over if I then turn the race one to 2 on the scale ( 1 says "wet" ) it still seems to have some sort of limit kicking in any ideas ? Is it that I need to turn the race scale the other way ?

Tried the engineers mode. Was fun for 5 secs. battery charge is useful though

Did read for the first time the other day about camel mode on the 'R8 but can't find anymore info about how it does it other than its a 'limp home' mode. Anyone know more?
