  1. Thanks for that... Looks like i'll be watching 'The Hole' before bed tonight then ........ for those that don't know, it's the film where Keira Knightley gets em out.. while dressed as a school girl! oh yes! P.s.... please don't ask what my job is....
  2. I’d have any of the above But… If I had to pick 1 girl it would be ‘Holly Valance’… Apparently I’ve been infatuated with her for years, since she was in neighbours (ask my mates!). I know there’s a lot fitter birds out there but I guess she just “Does it” for me! … I’ve still got my Holly Valance calendar up from 3 years ago … you never know, maybe she’ll read this!
  3. I’ve had a good search on here but I can’t make head nor tail of it and I’m starting to fall asleep. I’m trying to find a diff for my 1996 NA Manual but having problems What would happen if I fitted an NA Auto diff? I’m guessing that ‘NA Auto’ and ‘TT Auto’ diffs are different right? Thanks, Rob
  4. I'm stuck at home seeing as though my car is screwed I live in the middle of nowhere, no buses & the nearest pub is about 4miles away!....
  5. That's well funny! .... Isn't it the same guy who does 'Salad Fingers' ?...
  6. I bought the diff from a member on here and went to pick it up. I'm convinced that he genuinely believed it was a good one so I'm probably just unlucky. I've posted in the wanted section so i'm hoping something turns up
  7. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=97254 Have a read!
  8. Has anyone got a diff that will fit a 1996 Manual NA Supra? Thanks, Rob.
  9. For f***’s sake! First I nearly die swerving to miss a tree (final destination style) http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=96484 Then the teeth snap off my rear diff! http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=96691 So I had a new (2nd hand) diff fitted yesterday afternoon. Tonight on my way home, about 1 mile from my house the car starts making a chattering noise coming from the back . Thought I’d better get home and check it, but less than 100 yards from my house, BOOM!.. The back wheels lock up and the car slides to a halt! Lucky it was on a straight or it could of been nasty!.. I put the car in gear & tried to drive off but nothing. Didn't stall, but wouldn't move anywhere.. Got out to have a look and there was diff oil all over the road!..B*llox! It’s only been on 24hrs! A guy stopped in his car to help give me a push but the rear wheels were totally locked up & it was in the middle of the road! A guy came out from down the road to help and after 15mins of rocking it we managed to get 2 wheels up onto the kerb. I'm in the RAC but i think you're supposed to be at least 1 mile from home before they will help. I phoned them anyway and luckily they came out. Took 90mins to turn up, in a transit van god damn it!... The guy took a look and confirmed what i'd already told them hours ago over the phone & then sent for a low loader! He recons the Diff pinion bearing had collapsed & this locked up the wheels. After another 90 mins sat in his transit van the low loader turned up and dragged it on backwards (wasn't easy i can tell you).. I've now had the car dropped off at my local garage to await repairs! Now I really need some help here... what are my options? Has anyone got a Diff that will fit an 1996 NA 5spd Manual? Open or LSD (I’ll post in the wanted section too) Do i buy a new one? If so where from? How much? and how long would it take to turn up? The diff was an open one so would an LSD diff from a manual TT fit or are they only designed for 6spd? If so, what LSD diff is fitted to facelift NA supras? If i fit an LSD diff (which would make the best of a bad situation) are there any extra parts i need? Any help will be much appreciated as my Supra is my only car and i'm now stuck getting to work etc.. Whichever way gets it fixed the quickest will probably be best! Oh.. and did I mention that it was absolutely freezing tonight and I’ve only just got home and it’s now 1am !!!
  10. nah, there's no way i'll be paying nearly £500 to play a computer game .. Think i'll wait for a bit & just play on my mates. One of them is bound to get one
  11. An Englishman, Irishman,& Scotsman all walk into a pub...................... Barman say's "What's this, some sort of f**king joke!"
  12. You're thinking of the clangers mate, The transformers always talked! ... Had some cool voices as well.. Remember Starscream! haha!
  13. That must of been in his skyline then cus you've got no chance in a supra... Even if you managed it it i couldn't see it being 'fantastic' unless you enjoy having your face bashed against the rear window ... It's hard enough in the passenger seat You get my vote!
  14. oh dear!.. I feel abused after having watched that!
  15. mx-8 & that looks cool fella! Good work!
  16. Glad i'm not the only one who thought it was rubbish. I like all the others apart from 5 but thought this was terrible! The story line was a total cop out. No action at all until the last fight (which is pretty good tbf) but no knock outs & he looses on points... great! ... oh but that's not the point of the film (so people keep telling me!), yeah whatever... I was dissapointed ... I'm probably gonna watch it again because people keep raving about it, i dunno, maybe i just wasn't in the mood for it at the time..
  17. Unlucky mate .. I think the heater matrix is near the top of every supra owners most feared list! .. Think I’d probably have a go at it myself if it ever went, considering the repair bill costs! The worst part is supposed to be pulling the dashboard out & I’m pretty good at dismantling things
  18. nah, looks like i'd snapped some teeth off the rear diff... oops
  19. Just got home from the garage after having it fitted! everything seems ok touch wood!.. Thanks a lot for sorting me out mate, you're a star
  20. I'll be coming as long as my cars back on the road!... fingers crossed i'm hoping it won't be long!
  21. No way!.. I didn't realise they were making a 'Back to the future 4'!

    Mexico - Cancun

    I met some american cheerleader birds while i was in cancun! .. my god were they fit, got them to do some cheerleading amongst other stuff The best part is that they'd never heard of Canada, & didn't know where it was!.. they really are as stupid as they look on the tv ... not complaining though... America's now on my 'to visit' list!
