  1. Going to be intresting to see how far mclaren honda will be behind in china... it being a power track and having a number of mid to high speed corners. Supposed to be more than 30kph slower on the striaghts then any other team.
  2. Not sure what OEM models would work but how about the Momo GT-50
  3. I did my race licence there, shame their noise limits are so low... would love to unleash the Supra there, plus its my closest track..
  4. Keron, I sent you a message but you have not responded. Can you get me a price on a driver and passenger door please. Bare doors, no glass, handles, locks etc. Must be in good condition, colour not an issue.
  5. I am still on the lookout everyone so if you have a pair of good condition doors for sale please let me know.
  6. Bump - If you have a spare pair of doors in good condition in the surrounding areas then please let me know as well. Need these soon now.
  7. Small Bump - Still interested if anyone has any in Hampshire.
  8. I remember my first car had no power steering... good old 1989 Ford XR2 MK2
  9. Cool, If you can whack up some pics or send them to me on email that would be grand.
  10. Cool, Some pics would be great cheers. Are you happy for me to get them collected?
  11. That is fine, just out of interest what is the condition like - any pics? Shipping may be awkward as they will most likely get some light damage however I can take responsability for that if they are packaged well. I can arrange pickup if thats easier for you?
  12. Hi all, Need replacement driver and passenger doors for the Supra please. Does not matter what colour. Just the bare doors, no windows, motors, switches or panels They need to be good condition though, no dents etc. I am looking for some in the hampshire area **EDIT** UK wide now.
  13. I have never been that blown away from stock footage taken from a Go Pro... colors and exposure have always needed balancing in Adobe to make the colors pop and to correct the exposure to give you that more "professional" look, however there is a reason for that... It is better to have it that way then over saturated stock footage. Therefore the Go Pro is better for a professional environment, you have near to no pre processed colors from the CCD which makes it easier to work with in post production and maximizes the detail (and it is the DETAIL that you want) and with the new Hero 5 you have control over the exposure as well with some degree of image stabilization too. If you want good usable footage without too much or Zero post editing work.. then probably the cheaper ones will do, they always whack the saturation up to compensate for the lack in quality/sensitivity of the CCD which also on the face of it makes the straight up non edited footage much brighter in a back to back comparison and therefore "better". However in the real world a camera with a cheaper CCD and running a higher saturation also provides massive losses in detail, Which in turn makes it a nightmare for working on it in post production in a pro enviroment. If you are doing footage professionally then I would say the GoPro is still the one to have due to its non processed footage. You can also make the quality/detail of the Go pro footage even higher by switching on GoPro's Pro Tune feature (which some of the cameras have) which increases the data rate of the footage etc, that said the stock footage of a Go Pro will actually look better than when its on Pro Tune mode but the Pro Tune DATA will be much better for post editing, which in turn makes the Pro Tune footage amazing once post edited (which is what you end up seeing in all the Go Pro adverts which is post edited pro tune work). I would say if you are going to be filimg a track day, going on holiday, diving, using it for fun stuff then get a cheap one. If you plan to work with it professionally then get a Go Pro as there is much more to it...
  14. To be fair mate, you are pretty much there if you sell both for descent money.
  15. Hi all, We are looking to repair/refurbish our workshop floor but am having issues choosing what we should go for. At the moment its a bare concrete slab (not powerflaoted) and painted with poly paint. Our plan is to grind the floor back level with a floor grinder and fill in the gaps, use a levelling compound to make the whole thing smooth (and level) and then either paint or cover in a resin type coat. I want to do this correctly first time and as it is a workshop it needs to be tough. Any suggestions on what I should be looking at? Would like it to have this sort of finish.
  16. I'm happy its gone to a safe place
  17. I should have kept my V160 instead of selling it a couple of years ago for next to nothing... £1800 I think it was. Damn....
  18. Its about what you like... If you like one brand and blend of tea then you stick with it despite other people saying there are "better" brands/blends on the market, yeah you may dabble from time to time but at the end of the day you end up going to the same brand you started with. Same thing with cars... If you like a particular blend of features (looks, power, blah, blah) then you will stick with it. Just because there are "better" cars on the market does not mean someone or you will like that "blend" of car for long or ever. I personally think the GTR is soulless, heavy and boring to drive, the power is fun but then it gets old real quick. I like raw fast cars. The Supra is older and therefore more raw and hard to drive quickly and gives you much better sense of achievement when driving quickly. My Track Supra is the rawest car I have ever driven and I love it, hell it does not even have a brake servo... (that's lots of fun on circuits with cold brakes).
  19. I really dont know to be honest mate, I see smaller ones on ebay go for around £300 odd but I wouldnt want that much for it.
