I'm thinking that a nice new big brake kit would look nice behind my new Rotas, so thought I'd find out if theres any interest in my UK spec front brake setup. This would include calipers pads and discs. Calipers are painted red with new supra stickers. Pads have about 70% left Discs are used but not lipped, they also do not judder at all.

I've just read that the newer elite models also do the ring if there's a loose cable at the back. Double check all your connections.

No, that doesn't sound right. What three lights are lighting up red?, as different combinations of lights mean different things. These ones are RROD http://gaygamer.net/images/daverrod.jpg

If it's failed that fast mate, you can exchange it from the place you got it from. Just swap the HDD with the exchange unit. ( I did this with my first one 2 years ago)

Not defending what he did, but I knew Malcom. He worked at the same station as me, before that he was a gaoler at Lewisham where I also worked. He is a really nice bloke. He lived for the job and was a really good copper. Such a shame that his daft actions led to the death of that poor woman.

I had a lump in my throat all the way through that. She's one very very brave young lady. Fucking scummy bastards. No punishment is too bad for them. I hope some see's this program inside and gets to them....

Sure, his speed was excessive, and there is an obvious danger presented to other road users. My problem is simply this, his punishment is not proportionate when compared with other crimes.

This might be uber stupid, but is your wastgate opening? -
Embarrassing things you've thought..then said out loud.

The wife and I were driving along the M1, just as I was slowly overtaking a lorry, she looked over to me and said "is that one of those dangerous lorries you always hear about in accidents on the motorway?", I replied "what do you mean?", she replied "a jack knife lorry" -
This is the nail on the head. Putting my family in a scenario like that. The only thing going through my mind would be, if they get through me, they get to my wife and 19 month old son. Best go in like you intend to stop them. The consequences of going in softly softly might mean you regret your actions far more than a life sentence.

Put yourself in this guys position, two guys break into your mothers house while you're at home. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/man-charged-with-murder-of-burglar-1810253.html What would you do?

The Samsung LED range mate http://www.samsung.com/uk/experience/television/led/index.html I've seen a few of these running proper HD sources, and they....IMO... decimate everything else. They are stunning.

Thay should believe mine seeing as I have all the history for it

In the case of some sort of emergency or life threatening incident, I'll take my supra to a car park like that. But I put a child seat in the car so I can park in the 'mother baby spaces' that are massive. you can open a supra door full and still not contact the car next to you. Failing that, I'll find the most expensive car, that's clearly someones pride and joy and park next to it, knowing full well he won't ding your door with his.

Things you always wanted to know but were too embarrassed to ask.

The bone that hurts is called the 'humerous', hence funny bone. Why do men have nipples? -
Out of interest, is there any reason why you went for the stock toyota ones over these solid ones?
-
Hmm, hardtop for me. After my stint in the s2000, I've decided I'm not good looking enough for convertibles
-
In real life, would you leave the stock TC switched on on your BPU supra during a race? nope. The ABS is OTT on the game and makes braking too easy. Someone sort out a time then and we'll get started. I'm looking forward to this
-
Auto ECU's run on manual cars as far as I'm aware, just not the other way around.
-
Biggest gripe with the game.......there are BBS alloys, but no LM's. There's even Rota alloys, but no GTLM's. There's no alloys that look like ours.

awww man, thats gutting. I love ridgebacks too I'd take her off you in a heart beat, but I have an 18 month old son.
-
Well done mate. When I was a kid, my sister and I entered my five year old rhodesian ridgeback into a local show. On the run around the ring show off bit, my dog, 'Red', decided to curl out the biggest shit you've ever seen, I swear this thing had its own area code. We never bothered waiting for the results
-
The stipulations should be more real life. Lock the upgrade limit to a600 (about BPU I think) turn off all assists and go from there. It'll make for a more interesting race, rather than a 250mph crash into the first corner where the person at the back of the grid can't be bothered to brake. Oh, and all manual gears locked to in car views. Count me in.

Very early prototype urinal?
