  1. Looks gorgeous!! Well done mate, you must be very proud! Welcome to the forum! Whats the mod list then??
  2. My car, for some strange reason, has got 235/45/17 Avon ZZ1s fitted on the back so, even though they are brand new, I'm having them replaced as I want the right stuff on that back axle!! So, when the correct size get fitted on Thursday I'll have 2 brand new Avon ZZ1s (235/45/17) to get rid of. They look to be about £115 each new (from a quick search on Google) so am open to reasonable offers. I can drive the tyres within a 40 - 50 mile radius otherwise I'd suggest pickup or I can organise post somehow!!

    Tyre choice

    Tyre choice

    They're on offer on http://www.blackcircles.com at the moment - thought I'd get a pair whilst they're cheap. Anybody want 2 x 235/45/17 Avon ZZ1s? They look brand new but I'm taking them off because they are wrong!!!!
  5. Will need to put new tyres on the car as its currently got 235/45/17s on the back (god knows why - I didn't put them on!!) and have got a price of £230 for 2 tyres, supplied and fitted (inclusive of VAT) from local supplier for 2 x Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 255/40 R17 Y. Good price? Good tyre? It seems from doing a search that this does seem to be the tyre of choice on here!!
  6. Not trying to do the site out of cash - just that when you've got contacts it seems daft not to use them. Not on offer for sale - sorry!!
  7. Post links/info when you get some!!
  8. Got a mate with a company who can produce T-Shirts cheap for me so thought I'd knock up a T-Shirt for me and my lad to come down to Santa Pod in - what do you guys think?! http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/9695/design7vb.jpg
  9. That sounds about right - £60+ with Optimax/Ultimate. Range - well I got through a tank in a little over 130 miles yesterday but I was approaching take-off speed most of the time - just testing whether that limiter comes in when they say it will!! Average I reckon about 230 - 260 miles on a tank but it depends on your driving style/type (town/motorway/country roads etc). I try not to look at the gauge anymore!
  10. Matt - you need help, expensive and lengthy help!
  11. How much we looking at now then? Total price incl. postage please!!
  12. T-Cut and a good buff and you'll hardly notice!
  13. Good luck with the search - some people swear by auto, some by manual - I would suggest drive both and make your own mind up. I was always a manual man but when I bought my first Supe I went for an auto. I've now got a UK TT and stayed with the auto. Its a great gearbox for the car and well suited. Its a personal thing. Mileage is not an issue as long as there's a comprehensive service history with it. And UK vs JDM is not an issue - both are superb cars and you will not be disappointed with any combination of UK, JDM, auto or manual - just save some money for the petrol!! Mine drinks it like George Best in a desert! Oh, and welcome!

  17. For a 13 year old I'd say its somewhere between very good and worrying!!
  18. Indeed he is, a chip off the old block! He knows I want to anyway, just fun to keep him on his toes!!
  19. OK - I'll get me coat!!
  20. Cracked me up!! Get with it lad!!
  21. He's known as "you're the kid who's dad's got that wicked Supra" at school!! I might be cooler than him!!
  22. His is 1:24!! (actually its mine but I'm lending it to him!!) He's Supra mad - half the reason I bought one in the first place! Keeps pestering me to lower mine, slam some 19s on, decat it, make it like Mr Whiffins car . . . I've created a monster!!!
