    Text Speak

    I hate text-speak with a passion - but I'm not sure LOL fits in that bracket. That's more internet speak. I think using text speak in anything other than texts signifies everything that's wrong with this country and it makes me want to resort to terrorism.
  2. Consider this: there is an electric car called the Lightning that was presented at the London Motorshow. It had electric motors, one in each wheel and does 60mph in 4 seconds. I'd have thought with a little more R&D and it will be available to retro-fit to cars. The Supra could become a timeless shape yet
  3. Absolutely, it's very refreshing to see that there are people out there who are trying to make a difference to the situation we're all in right now, rather than just blindly trying to save the "environment" by hiking up taxes like money grows on trees. The cars being suggested are 0% emmisions. The Danish system suggested using wind power means that ultimately the carbon footprint for cars could be reduced to zero. As the writer suggests, the concept sells itself. I wonder what this will mean for the oil producing nations that are currently hugely wealthy and to some extent invincible? If nations don't need oil any more, where will all that money go? Food and aid for less developed nations?
  4. This is one of the more interesting articles I've read about electricity being the replacement for oil. Mr Agassi seems to have his model so well organised, funded and underway that it's almost silly to ignore this radical shift towards electricity. Combined with reading more and more recently about Telsa, the American electic car firm who are currently building a new factory to builld the worlds first profit-making electric cars and a picture of the future is being drawn. Soon enough our internal combustion engines will belong in a museum and will be a rare sight on the road.
  5. So is she getting toe implants? What is the benefit of modifying the foot configuration? I guess she'll be a faster swimmer as water won't be able to slip through the toes? Or is it to improve her ability to walk over sand/snow?
  6. I think hiten_55 was looking for one of these matey
  7. An octopus has 2 arms and 6 legs.
  8. Very helpful site that is, I'd not used it like that before. I can overlay my run at 1.1 bar on there as well to get more perspective.
  9. I'm only reving to OEM limit at 1.4 bar on a bone stock engine though, with a T61. My car is a road car so I wanted the fast spool but have been told that cams would be a good addition. I'm not so sure now.
  10. I've been under the impression stock cams are a restriction... I'm glad to see that's not the case with my turbo.
  11. wow - I should have known that really lol I was looking at his specs the other day. I've had problems with mine tailing off but I suspect there is more to it than cam choice. When does the Do Luck come onto full boost?
  12. Since when did this government give a sh1t about human rights? They've been watching us via CCTV and on the 'net for years. It's not such a huge leap between now and a future where all traffic is monitored via satalite. Then how long until cars drive themselves? The pink squashy bit behind the wheel won't be necessary soon.

    Steep steps

    http://andyfarrell.blogspot.com/2008/08/steep-steps.html Good luck with that one
  14. I'm sure it's different for different people though fella, depends on how much you smoke and how long you smoke for. After 2 weeks the cravings really did slow down considerably as well.
  15. Are you going to assassinate her?
  16. I found it lasted 2 weeks mate. I gave up cigarettes at 23:59 on New Years Eve 2006, it's been 18 months for me and I honestly now feel sick whenever I smell tobacco smoke. I couldn't imagine starting again
  17. New fuel pump would be a good idea, maybe 2 of them for 600bhp. What boost are you running?
  18. Polish only or are you OK with any Eastern European nationalities?

    hi

    If you were enthusiastic about Supras but had 2 parents who were banned from the site wouldn't you join up and not introduce yourself so as to save all the hassle you're bound to get?? Or head on over to the "other" UK Supra club...
