  1. Going to the NH Krystal Resort.... yeah i wanna do that speedboat thing how much was that?
  2. Yay got my holliday booked Off for two weeks all inclusive in the sun, will get lots of pics and then post them up. Cant wait....
  3. Moving 47kg to the rear would be difficult but not impossible i reckon. I would imagine a good start would be moving the battery to the rear perhaps an aluminium rad, carbon fibre bonnet - actualy thinking about this it poses a new question would you loose this weight if you went with a single tub? This could be turning into an expensive project lol,
  4. So what would be the optimum distribution of weight?
  5. Thats a nice car... So its 341bhp per tonne... not bad
  6. What is the standard weight ratio then?
  7. Yeah i also want to make the weight distribution as best as i can for the supe is 50/50 the best or is it better having say 55% Rear 45% front?
  8. http://www.seiboncarbon.com/pdut_detail2.asp How much of a weight advantage over stock parts would replacing the following be... Front Wings Doors Bonnet Rear Hatch Just wondered if its a good idea, thinking about putting the car on a diet (yes the interior as well, Carbon fibre seats etc... me going on a diet as well).

  16. Wow small world - didnt realise you worked at midland computers. I was helping Anna this morning on a HP server solution. I work at Westcoast as HP Technical server Presales. Sorry for the Hijack.
  17. have you done it yet? good feeling you know.
  18. Sounds like you have some sort of boost leak have you had your FMIC pressure tested? Have you checked your boost hoses for cracks at all?
  19. If it is white steam it could be one of two things, 1. Already mentioned here just condensation inside the exhsaust evaporating and turning to steam - which its more likely to be tbh. 2. Engine coolent getting into the cylinders, Engine coolent makes a very very white dense cloud of smoke when it burns off - to eliminate this check your oil cap and see if there is any white sludge there, also check the expansion bottle and rad cap for signs of water mixing with oil, this will suggest that the head gasket has gone. I honestly think its just condensation evaporating into the cold air. A cataltic converter turns the Hydrocarbons into harmless gases of which some of the result is Carbon Dioxide and Water ! Warm dense moist air coming out of an exhaust in the cold weather means steam.... Thats why when you have stopped normal driving the exhaust gases start to cool down (water stops atomising through higher temps whilst driving) as it makes its way down the exhaust pipe it then starts to condense when it hits the cold air therefore you get steam after a few mins.
  20. Further to the posts on inheritance tax You only get taxed if you get more than £300,000 passed on. After £300,000 you get taxed 40% on what is over £300k
