    lol!! Good strategy mate
  2. I didn't say it was interesting....just clever
  3. Just in case anyone has ever been conned by this here lady http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=432_1204271749 A bit long winded but impressive nevertheless!
  4. Avoid macs IMO Remove Vista, add another 512mb memory and install XP Pro. and it should be usable then...or send it back..

    Sanity prevails

    The law has changed very recently...to allow 'reasonable defensive force' to be used against an attacker or robber. As mentioned, reasonable is classed as if he comes at you with a knife, you can disarm him and stab him with it Sounds fair to me...
  6. Except TT Vipers which are IRS and very potent indeed when done right....
  7. Not with IRS though and pound to a penny most 6 or 7 second cars are not a street car in any sense of the word. Fastest 'street' legal car I have seen was a TT mustang in the low 7's at 180mph ish....however it would overheat if it got stuck in a traffic jam Let's be honest, although I'm slightly bias there's very very few (if any) cars that can touch a monster Supra that can also go round a corner pretty well and then still make the drive home from the races Like these guys...
  8. Just goes to show, the ability to rev to high RPM and 3 litres displacement have triumphed over a 3.4s low end torque in this instance at least
  9. I was awake and working on my pc. There was a massive deep groaning from the bowels of the earth and then my house wall started literally shaking (brick wall) Some free standing shelves fell over in the same room....and 20 seconds or less later it was all over. Not good
  10. Theres no way they could implement it. it would literally cause the economy to grind to a stop. All those people who couldnt get to work and couldnt afford a new car either.... No old coaches or buses allowed in towns? I cant see even these tw*ts in power trying to bring that in If they do though..Im going to drive my car anyway
  11. What V8 engine are you fitting ?
  12. Most certainly for 4th gear traction issues in the dry and with a PROPERLY built engine But it TOTALLY depends on what you are using the car for.... if it is a daily driver then no way in hell would I use it. if it is for the occasional street run and mainly for drag strip, I would consider it. If it is for purely drag strap then I would go bigger and use N2O for spool.... But that turbo will have a LOT of lag on a 3 litre motor (no matter how well flowing) and you wont see full boost till at least 5k rpm + is my guess It all depends on your desires. But if you dont have a fully built motor and you like to drive your car rather than trailer it...then for me it would be a big no no. PT 67 would be spot on for the street from what I have been told
  13. The problem I have found with smaller compressors using impact wrench and the like is that they very quickly run out of puff as others on here have alluded to. This one is definately a bargain for smaller hobby use though and hopefully some of you will post back your experiences of it
  14. A real downer this is Tom but well done for holding on to your car.. Only a shame the scumbag got away and the plice didnt get him (for this offence at least) I would advise this anti theft device as the best in the business Im trying to get one myself but there are supplier problems currently...
  15. Faulty speed convertor or delimiter is my guess
  16. Bugger Sorry to hear that m8. Is it 'definately' over? or is there some talking to be done.....? If it is, then as you say, sh*t happens and everything happens for a reason so they say. im still trying to work out a lot of them though.....(reasons that is!) Good luck mate
  17. You dont want to try to make it yourself. Not when you can buy a perfect fit for £30 but this is what you need I believe PN 58804-14040 Upper Console - Panel Sub Assembly

    rear end noise

    What model is your car?? Could possibly be your diff. Check the Diff mounts
  19. As above guys and gals Ive just bought this complete overhaul kit for a 2jz gte motor Im rebuilding, however the box just comes with a HUGE bag of completely mixed bits (eg/valve stem seals and tonnes of other bits) Does anyone know what 'SHOULD' be in this overhaul kit please? (eg/ a parts list ) as I am staggered that there is no parts drilldown list inside it or seperately bagged and grouped items...but instead just one massive vac sealed bag full:taped: Thanks
  20. Gutted. he looks a bit like the guy out of the Hamlet adverts one other thing.....he was actually insured, yes?
  21. YES!! Sadly, it sounds like your engine is fubarred The only plus point is that 2JZ GE engines are cheap as chips I know this might not be much consolation but its better than nothing! £100-£250 ...and a few good forum guys...and your back on the road
  22. What model is it? Followed closely by video would be useful!
  23. Who cares whats 'allowed' if your cars or propertly is being needlessly vandalised or stolen.... I have installed cameras on my property overlooking onto the pavement.... The police couldnt even be RSed to come out when thieves tried to steal my supra and wrecked the door lock and window They certainly wont chase you up for a camera there mate especially if theres no ***** neighbours and they all agree. Sorry to see the damage to the car....that sucks big time Scumbags are everywhere....just more in some places than others You can also get cameras for inside your car but they wont be cheap!
