  1. I think its sh*t, Sky 301/302 dont come on till 4/5pm, so your basically paying the same money for less movie channels during the day. They should have left it how it was....w*ankers.
  2. Really good animation: :: http://weebls-stuff.com/toons/Animator+vs+Animation+2/
  3. Bear in mind that whilst a cheque may look 'cleared' in your account after 4 days, it can still be cancelled within 10 days of your putting it in (I think its 10 days, best check with your bank). I've heard of numerous tales of people who have sent an item once the cheque 'cleared' in their account, only to discover that the cheque was later cancelled shortly after that and ended up out of pocket.
  4. Some people believe everything that their media tell them. Can only imagine what the Iranian tv coverage has been regarding the matter...anything to give them a reason to make a purchase at http://www.effigy.com and burn it in the streets No doubt Bush will claim on US TV that Iran has kidnapped God to justify the yanks getting involved on a military basis....afterall he loads his speeches with numerous religious words to whip they yanks up into a fury.
  5. I'd say NFS:MW and GTR2 on the PC, depends if you want arcade (NFS:MW) or simulation (GTR2). Does anyone with Test Drive Unlimited on the PC know if a Supra is one of the cars?
  6. I've had thumbs up from schoolkids on their push bikes....not in the same league lol, but there arent that many nice Jap cars around my way
  7. Didnt CW have a close shave on someones car who skimped on Injector O rings - where the car burst into flames in his workshop?
  8. As mentioned, 'link popularity' is only going to benefit your website ranking if: :: (a) the websites linking to you are in the search engines index in the first place :: (b) the linking websites are related to your industry. Both web design and search engine optimisation industries are cottage industries, anyone can claim to be a web designer / search engine optimisation specialist, but it doesnt gaurantee they are any good. Most use crude spamming techniques, which often work against you on 'intelligent' search engines like Google. Also stay away from 'doorway pages'. Having a link in your sig on here wont hurt, infact it may increase the frequency your website gets crawled by search engines, but its questionable if it would boost your ranking unless your website is about supras
  9. I used FRAPS to record my lap. You have 2 ways of recording: :: Record it live as you do it, though it reduces your FPS (thats what I did in my vid) :: Do the lap, then record the GTR recording of your lap The latter would let you make it more 'hollywood', with more angles, with zooming, panning angles, etc. I then used Sony Vegas (30 day trial) to 'bling it up' (saving it as an AVI file) and converted to DivX with DivX Converter (http://www.divx.com), though Sony Vegas will let you save the movie in various formats. I found DivX gave me the best detail for the size of the video.
  10. Not-so-fascinating-fact-of-the-day: Mongoose exhausts are rebranded BlueFlame ones. I had one on my Corolla GTI and the build quality was brilliant - in stainless steel.
  11. Feed it through the drivers wing into the drivers footwell - you'll have to take out the plastic inner arch liner to do it.
  12. Just seen cool clip of a bipedal robot "Asimo", Im sure some of you have seen this robot before, but not sure if youve seen this demonstration of it before: :: http://stage6.divx.com/Lab_Rats_TV/show_video/1101039 (DivX) Skip to 1:50 in the video.
  13. Wonder if they'd object to sherbet? (dont look at me like that - its a powder )
  14. I used my drying towel supplied by Peter today for the first time, very impressive....though the neighbours gave me some funny looks, obviously thought I was drying my car with a novelty oversized teatowel
  15. Thanks for the link mate, but my plumbing is still different from the setup you have linked to. I've attached some pics, hopefully I've named everything correctly (my knowledge is limited): http://mooch.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/supra/plumbing/supra_plumbing_1.jpg I can confirm that this is my boost gauge pressor sensor. http://mooch.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/supra/plumbing/supra_plumbing_2.jpg If anyone would take the time to explain to me how that works I'd be very grateful. My main concern is that its safe and not shocking my #2 turbo (it doesnt feel like it). If the installation instructions for the boost controller are required to work out why its plumbed like that, I have uploaded a copy here (PDF File). Also, sorry for hijacking the thread Guru....but it got me thinking Cheers Simon
  16. Aha - here it is: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/6390657.stm The Euro spec PS3 will not be able to play as many older games as Jap/US ones.
  17. Well, Originally I was told that the Jap ones had a lesser spec (no blue ray) and therefore it would be sillly to import one, but someone on here with a contact @ sony (i think) said they did. However, Im pretty sure it was on a news channel recently that the UK one would be a lesser spec than others. Taking the mickey really since UK customers will no doubt be paying more for less.
  18. Not trying to dampen the mood, but isnt the UK spec one a lesser spec than the US/Jap ones....sure I heard that on the news within the last month. I have a mate who tests games for a living (jammy sod) and he said the PS3 is the best thing since sliced bread and hookers...but you must play it on a HDTV to get the most from it (as mentioned earlier).
  19. Interesting, my plumbing looks nothing like that, presumably due to my boost controller (which came with the car)....Im running in sequential mode.
  20. Religious buildings should be self funded, so if public money is spent on any religious building (regardless of religion) Id be miffed to say the least. Im also an athiest, with a little Jedi thrown in for good measure. The only religious thing I do is wash the Supe on the weekend.
  21. Glad to hear you got it working What car are you doing Monza in?
  22. Suppose its down to the underwriter they use when quoting for your policy. My underwriter changed, and my insurance went UP by £80 even though I'd gained 1 more years NCB.
