game consoles
Sorry but I don't rate them at all, everybody I know who has one (apart from Pete :p) has all boken down, amongst a fair few,my mate in work is on his 5th, my brother is now on his 3rd as of last week. The lad I work with his 360 broke, I fixed the 3 red lights for him, fine then about a month later 3 red lights again, so I looked at it again and re-did (did'nt want to strip the threads on the heatsink the first time around its only ally). Anyway alls fine then about 3 weeks after its on 1 red light now, my advise.........throw it in the bin and get a PS3. Also If your intending to get one to get 'flashed' you can't as of yet flash the new drives as they have a read only firmware on them, you can swap drives about but thats a different route, microsoft can tell, then you get banned from xbox live and the console can't connect anymore............360=vicious circle.....

My ZX is running well.........
powertrix adjustable tension rods............. I know, I don't drive hard though :wack: Just think the new rods are a bit stiffer than the old car expected. With new uprated parts weak spots will become apparent more sooner than later :)

game consoles
I have both (xbox360 soon to be sold when I get round to it) I'd have to say PS3 for the more futureproof machine. The 360 is just a games console where you pay for online play, the ps3 (expandable 500gb+ hard drive ect)could be a full blown media center, search 'play tv' also the ps3 can read off usb sticks ect, you can stream from pc on both but PS3 overall has more to look forward to in the future, 360 owners have to settle for Gears of war 2.................and no I don't want a console war, lol just my 2ps worth :D but am open to be corrected If I have been mistaken.

My ZX is running well.........
Been driving mine daily for the last 12months+ mot next month will fail as there is a slight crack near my 12month old rose mounted tention rods (probally a bit firmer than stock, lol) thats all that I know. Only off the road as insurance ran out yesterday, tax is also out end of the month. Just had to spend £250 on my vans mot and tax (2nd car not used for work hardly driven about 800 miles last year) and with a redundancy letter from work last week could'nt justify the zed to be used for the foreseable future although I have had my insurance give me a quote for the next 30 days :)

Car sitting for 20 months
When I put the fuel lines on correctly :eek: Mine started up as soon as I turned the key, mine was sat for about a year and drove to and back from a bodyshop twice which is less than a mile away from my house, I would'nt worry about it.

Clutch problems
I fitted a stiffer than stock clutch, had problems with it ,so bought a brand new slave cylinder, which solved it.........but when driving for quite a while the clutch started to slip so I replaced the seals in the master cylinder. Problem is now solved the seal kit was about £30ish and the cylinder was about £30ish, IIRC. I don't really know about the stiffness of a RPS Clutch though.
