  1. I fitted a TRD strut brace and I'd say yes it does sort out quite a bit of flex. Felt more +ve. Greg may not notice much because he already had one fitted.
  2. It's totally stock with the exception of HIDs and TRD front strut brace. I bought her about 5 years ago off the MD of a local building firm for £!##!**@@?!! and now she's only worth a few bob. LOL! As a weekend toy it's only clocked up 54k which aint too bad for a 12 year old filly. Gold Cup is a larf but hell on wallet and liver!! Chelt is back to normal service now.

    Smart cars

    My mate saw a Smart parked up like this. Being bit of a c*nt he drove right up to door by a few inches so the driver would have to climb in through the boot or passenger door.
  4. I only use it as a weekend toy and give it a good blast when I can. Most of the week it hibernates in the garage. I've seen a JDM gun metal Supe alot but I've never seen a silver. There seems to be quite a healthy Supe population here in Chelt. Some kiddie is arranging a meet in Malvern soon.
  5. Bugger! Somebody's pinched all the numbers off me reg plate. I was coming back from a nice burn up in the Malverns. Yes I saw that flash Audi but didn't realise it was an RS6. See yah around.
  6. FLIPPIN' 'ECK THE BARSTEWARDS HAVE BEEN THRASHING MY BATMOBILE ALL OF 25 MILES!!! It was the speed activation they wanted to check. And they were courteous enough to ring that they were taking the Supe for a jolly good thrash.
  7. I'm doing place spots on all 6 races. Kachit Chief Dan George Kauto Star Carryonharry Pablo du Chamil Fair Along Then later head off into to Chelt town centre for a good old plastic Paddy kness up. Don't listen to Pot. This is one of the best weeks of the year here in Chelt. You just needs loadsamoney!!!! [GRIN][/GRIN]
  8. I say virtually whatever I like to my bosses. They're closing us down and all I want is my £15K redundancy package so that I can supe up the Supe and buy a new bike.
  9. I think you're being a tad paranoid. Last year mine was being repaired for front end damage. They put 25 miles on the clock. Initially I was quite annoyed. They explained to check the front spoiler would drop, the safest place was on the M5 only a few miles away. A quick sprint from Cheltenham to Tewkesbury and back. 25 miles. I'd rather they found any vibes, steering issues than me. Plus who's going to be giving the Supe more stick in it's lifetime? They even had another car got out infront to check incase the spoiler light was faulty.
  10. He came in second on 12:1. [/sAD] Should've gone each way. [sAD] /vbb/images/smilies/bbcode_sad.gif Did you stake your Supe on Burntoakboy?
  11. 4:00 Coral Cup Powerstation to win. It's manic here in Chelt at the moment.
  12. You'll get more on eGay. I had to stump up £120 for mine.
  13. BUMP. eGay the tickets. Don't forget to charge £5 booking fee and £10 P&P. [GRIN][/GRIN]
  14. I've often thought about buildng a track day car. You turn up on a trailer. Totally gutted, just two seats, perspex windows, no trim. No tax, no insurance, etc. Something that's going to be cheap, easy to repair cos you're not going to afraid of scraping a wing. Saw something at Japfest a few years ago and the guy was using NOS and left alot of other cars behind. Blew the engine but didn't care cos he had fun and it was cheap. |It was ancient. Haven't a clue except it wasn't a Supe, Skyline, Scooby, Evo, etc

    What the hell!

    Back in the old days, people broke into your car, broke the steering lock and hot wired it. Whoosh. Now with sophisticated immobilisers your determined car thief is now a burglar resorting to breaking in and searching for your keys. Problem then is when they don't find the keys they resort to extreme violence. Sign of the times. [sAD][/sAD]
  16. I love TE37s but don't disregard Volks CE28Ns. Superlight. Gotta justify £2000 on wheels.
  17. A mate got hit yesterday while riding his 850 Commando. A woman driver pulled out from a side road just as he was passing her. She clipped his exhaust and broke his leg. It's only a matter of time so maybe I'll sell up too
  18. Oh so because we all own Supras means we have a licence to speed. Excuse me anybody there? It was a Prius. By your logic a guy with a shotgun can go and shoot people. You know the law. Speed, get caught, take the punishment. Some of us are just lucky.
  19. Yeah cos I didn't get caught.
  20. Last week I've been in contact with Chris Wilson on exactly this subject. With the exception of the pump this is more or less what he recommends. As somebody has already said the restrictor ring will limit boost to 1.2 bar. He recommend HKS Hyper Silencer or Trust Power Extreme 2 exhaust. Also check out your intercooler condition.
  21. And why were you doing 60 in a 40 zone?
  22. The solution is very straight forward and simple. What you do is absolutely NOTHING. You don't bitch, you don't let it get to you. What you do is stay cool. It's only a big deal if you make it a big deal. You survived before you met him and you will survive without him. You stay in contact with the other guys. Eventually they will see him for the vindictive spoilt brat that you say he is. (Only have you word though.) and eventually he'll be the one left out. But if you go around slagging him off it'll only show you up.
