  1. KILL IT WITH FIRE!!........oh.
  2. Hmmm, not sure it's a good idea for me to go then
  3. I don't think they're trading anymore though mate. Nic always recommended them too, but he's not back trading yet. Looks like I'm going to have to fork out for a new kit
  4. Well done mate, I said earlier that it would sell when the right buyer came up.
  5. You're right. To pull black wheels off, the wheel design needs to be simple, so you can make out the details easily. For example, the black finichi Firenzes in Black look stunning. Or the Advans on JP's car (though they have a tint of colour in them)
  6. Its where his lead guitarist and him stand on either end of the stage, then the guitarist spits a loogey the whole length of the stage and he catches it in his mouth
  7. Check out the ultralite range as alreay mentioned. The nurburgrings are lovely looking in the flesh.
  8. Did he do his spit trick?
  9. I need a replacement element for the one fitted to mine. I can't find anyone that sells them. I've seen that the fitment at the back of the element is a 4 bolt arrangement, and not a jubilee clip jobby. I'm also aware that the Apexi elements use a 4 bolt fitment and wondered if I can just wack one of these on. Anyone know if they'll fit?
  10. I'd show my face, providing its not a chav fest. Is it just a japanese meet, or does every car type show up?
  11. Well I say you were the lucky one there. Burglary doesn't just entail stealing stuff from your house, it includes a whole host of other offences too. Sometimes their intent isn't just to steal stuff. For example, take a look at this bloke (that we still haven't caught) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minstead_rapist_case
  12. Did it work at all when you picked it up? Do you get any sort of positive pressure from the turbos, or nothing at all? Have you checked to see if your turbos are actually spinning? I read a while back about something similar with regard to sudden turbo loss and a loud induction noise, I think Mr Whiffen posted it up. Turned out that the black rubber pipe that links the big aluminium turbo pipes (on top of the TT system) had collapsed in on itself. From the outside, the pipe looks fine, but on inspection, the whole inside had closed up to a hole about a CM wide. It's an easy check, and it might be something that was overlooked. EDIT - found it http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=169670 I made the bit up about the noise, but worth a look.
  13. Blimey, one of the guys in my work was out in Southend at one of the 'events' and mentioned this supra. He actually liked it though. His nickname in work is 'Dagenham brand new bruv geezer Dave', so says alot really
  14. Wow, that low price might make people think there's something wrong with it
  15. I heard you feed them to pigs
  16. The TT gets its rev counter signal from the crack sensor. The NA will probably get it from the distributor king lead.
  17. COuld be, the three red lights simply stipulate hardware failure. So it maybe just your luck unfortunately Modern warfare 2 is out next week too, best you get onto amazon sharpish
  18. I can't afford the high end stuff, so D2's probably.
  19. Wider TRD front wings with stock rears look fine. Check the wheelmania website, there is a white one with 20" vortex R's fitted with same setup you're thinking of.
  20. Just to re itterate, this is just a gauge interest only thread. They'll be up for grabs sometime in the new year. Come the time when I do sell them, if I get someone who wants the calipers alone then I'll happily split them. Though I'd imagine someone wanting to upgrade will want the whole lot.
  21. I know Mr Whiffen sells the used calipers alone for £400. So with the discs and pads............. £550?
