  1. Keep sight, get rid of Smell.
  2. After deliberating a few times over getting a bodykit (was looking for a very subtle look) i decided that the stock look is so much better (but it’s all personal taste). Perhaps having the front stock rubber lip colour coded and maybe the rear stock arch trim coded too but apart from that i don’t think i would do anything else to the body. It’s just that (again personal opinion) that most kits don't follow the normal lines of the car and it’s that which makes these aftermarket bodykits look fugly. I must admit the ones that do follow the lines of the car look great but its just not for me.
  3. It used to be my daily driver but now i got a Ford focus for getting to work i have it as a weekend or mid week treat
  4. We need some caricature's done of our technical team (me included) where i work for a website refresh, and wanted to know if anyone on here can do them? If so can you pm me some of your work if you have any We will reimburse you for your time
  5. Lots of media reporting he is dead although looks like CNN are being really careful as they still have not confirmed it. If he has passed then its a shame and RIP just as if anyone dies, i didnt approve of his lifestyle and strange actions but was a good musican
  6. In a word, no, unless your SMIC is turning to powder. Remember the Stock SMIC has proper ducting going to it, which brings its efficiency up dramatically,. I would say 90% of the FMIC's fitted to Supra's are not ducted properly or even at all therefore they perform worse than a Stock Good condition SMIC.
  7. You have to ask whats more important to you.... a house or a car? I personally would say house, you can always get another supe later in life and it will probably be cheaper in fact most definatly. But at the end of the day it depends on what your personal circumstances are.
  8. I run 8 the only issue i have with it is the address bar when you click on it to look at a previous site your mouse usually hovers over the new "x" to delete the entry, and then when you think you are clicking the link you end up deleting it.
  9. Odd question but.... I am wearing a dressing gown (just got out of the shower)
  10. I use this place only uk weather but its never been wrong. http://www.netweather.tv/index.cgi?action=uk7dayx2;sess=
  11. Anyone that has installed this kit knows that the kit comes with 4 replacement hex screws which replace the manual adjusters so you can fit the EDFC motor on top of the strut. However in a moment of madness i cannot for my life find where i put these and need to order some more so i can fit this to my suspension.... i spoke to Tein uk and they said i have to order them through a Tein approved dealer and that they are about £1 each. Can anyone help?
  12. 10 psi or .7bar is right for the 1st turbo. The 2nd one is way OTT for the stock turbo to handle (if its Jspec), you need to have a restrictor ring installed in the Downpipe or a boost controller plumbed in. As above have you got Cats? What other mods have you done ?? BPU ?? If you dont have the supporting mods when boosting more than .9bar then you will have problems with fueling and combustion chambers being too hot. These need to be looked at otherwise say bye bye to your turbos (As that pressure wont let them last long) and possibly worst case engine (due to detonation - Cylinders too hot)
  13. Anyone who has played the current version knows it has been long due an upgrade on its Physics and graphics. This one now uses the Unreal 3 engine and has MUCH improved graphics.... and its still free. Due to be released today... Should be worth a download http://www.americasarmy.com/intel/aa3media.php
  14. Had mine for 4 years now - the longest i have ever owned a car.... time flys when your having fun.
  15. No one.. yet No one has given me reason to.
  16. Whilst you are right, it wasn’t always like that, i too like the banter and the races etc, i just wish it was a bit more focused like it used to be about 3 series back where it was a bit more balanced. I found last year to be a bit of a disappointment however that’s a matter of opinion, i dont expect others to share my view.
  17. Im happy that Sundays are not going to be boring but i think they are losing the idea of the show, i thought it was about reviews of fun/sports/supercars etc etc, not motorbikes and trains.... i hope this series is not as disappointing as the last one.
  18. Would be good project for a stripdown and rebuild. How much you looking for? if its got a noise at the bottom it will need some work doing.
  19. I may come along after work (I work in theale) but cant stay too long 1. JamieP 2. Ricky49 3. The Punisher 4. Kayla 5. Homer 6. Richardstock1 - maybe 7. 8. 9. 10.
  20. These have only recently been fitted onto my car, however the front feels a bit too spongy even with the adjuster set fully hard, Feels like the front is a little floppy, and when your driving and go over bumps it bounces ever so slightly....but enough to make you concerned about it. When you drive slowly and go down a bump you can feel the car bounce a couple of times.
