  1. Another good un.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNsyV1CHE6k&feature=player_embedded#at=16
  2. The chubster was suspended..........how was that not self defence?
  3. Brilliant....Ebay has a dongle for £20. Finally I can turn the EML off on my wifes car
  4. I was just thinking today about the video thing mate. I have some days off next week, I'll PM you what days they are when I know.
  5. you'll pass with the one cat mate.
  6. Nuclear emergency just announced............Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse. Saying that the Tsunami has caused a draw back of water preventing the cooling system for one of the reactors getting enough water.
  7. To help you with the sale, it may be worth seperating the turbos and taking pics of the wastgate area. They crack around this area making them useless, even for refurb. If your housings are good and not cracked, someone will be more likely to buy them.
  8. Wow, that tsunami is taking no prisoners. The footage cuts off before the wall of water hits the roads, I'm guessing it doesn't end well....
  9. My IQ is dropping by the second.......
  10. Scott, I'll take the front crank seal, and both cam seals mate.
  11. Could be a number of things, stuck VSV being one of them. I suggest you hit the FAQ section for troubleshooting turbo problems and go from there.
  12. It'll work on the plasma using the RF input.....picture will look aweful though. The low resolution of older TV's smoothed out jaggies, whereas your HD plasma will highlight every diagonal staircase.

  14. That is a big BHP figure for 1 bar. I got 422 at 1.25bar with a mines ECU on AFR's rollers. I need to get down to SRR to compare. Either way, that's an excellent result.
  15. That engine bay is amazing, you should be damn proud of yourself sir
  16. As Gaz said, it's up for 20 large. But as far as I can see, it's all finished. It has the big block 454 V8. Which, if I remember rightly is 7.2ltrs . Mated with the rock solid thm400 box. I've been doing research on classic muscle cars for years and have slowly become infactuated with them. I've then gone out of my way to find some reason not to own one, but I can't. Parts are readily available, and they're dirt cheap to boot. Crate engines are available, and the gearboxes are still used to this day with most specialists able to work on them. Then there's the whole 'paying no road tax', it's like sticking two fingers up at the governments tax banding system and shouting "7.2ltrs, and no road tax you mugs!!". Someone needs to give me a damn good reason not to get one.......................
  17. I thought I'd kicked my need for classic muscle, but this thread has brought it all back I'm waiting for an email back from a guy selling an old camaro which has caught my eye. http://cdn.images.pistonheads.com/aimg/2164/2164644-1.jpg If I end up buying it and my wife walks out on me......I'm blaming you Dude.

    Welcome Mr Welshman. Keron on here breaks supras for parts. Send him a PM with what you want and he'll be able to help you out. Failing that, if you want OEM stuff new from Toyota, you won't go far wrong with Whifbitz (a trader on here). Paul Whiffen can get parts from Toyota cheaper than most and pass the saving onto you.

    Rant!

    Sorry to see this mate, good luck with the insurance company. This is a common misconception. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Two cars having a head on at 50mph, is an impact force of 50mph, not 100mph.
  20. I set off with the camera set, James and Darren did an 'enthusiastic' driveby. I then played catch up into triple leptons, which pushed the camera mount past it's comfort zone. I had to pull into the hard shoulder to quickly remove it before it fell off. The overcast sky meant the quality was pants anyway, as you'll see from the pics.
  21. I'll be bringing the new camera to get some decent pics. Make sure you're all looking shiny
