Car 'Black Box' FYI

Subaru is considering to add them, so I heard.
Seems that a lot of car manufacturers, who put out high performance cars, worry about warranty work and suspect abuse / aftermarket parts to be the cause, hence the installation of the boxes. I heard the STI and EVO are the biggest worries.

I think its ridiculous to do that and not tell the owner that they're being watched. Either way I don't think it will really work because someone will figure out a way to take them out or erase their data. The worst I ever heard was a type of box that would keep track of your speed and automatically issue you tickets.

a friend of mine got locked up because of that. he has a mercedes 600
and went to go visit this girl a couple of times. next thing you know the cops come and lock him up. he later found out the girls brother was a
car thief and had stolen cars in the garage. the police tracked my friends onstar showing him close to the stolen cars. after the smoke cleared they realized it was a big misunderstanding and let him go.
these devices allow them to track your every movement which is scarey.

I agree with Kevlo, at the time that most 4th gens were built Nissan was on its last legs. FYI, check this out. Anyone else notice that Nissan is always extremely slow. Maybe they changed this by now(Doubtful seeing as the 02 spec is 6/sec). Actually, hopefully they changed this by now. I don't want the $30K Z's reading slow as dinosaurs when I get one in several years.
