  1. New infinity rear speakers, new steering wheel and boss. New engine mounts, oil and filter change, new samco vac pipes, new coolant pipes. I love it
  2. My mates just turned up in the office and told me that he was blatting down the road at ****mph () and he's said a gunmetal Supe came tearing up the road behind him. He's pulled over and let him passed, which the supe obliged to do. My mate said the Supe passed him like he was standing still and was quite impressed with the motor. He said it was a gunmetal V plate. Come on, own up, who was it ?
  3. Just giving everyone a heads up. I was doing my weekly underhood check over and found a small leak in the top coolant hose that leads to the first turbo. The leak is right in the middle of the hose and not the usual place of near the joins. I suspect that if one of these things decides to let go, its not going to take very long to cause serious heat issues in the turbo and further potential expensive damage. It seems that all my hoses, including vacuum hoses have all gone hard and will be prone to cracking soon causing PITA boost leaks and running problems So, I've been down to my local performance specialist and bought a load of samco piping, I'll be replacing the vacuum pipes, cooland pipes and all the stuff to the VSV's etc etc.... I'll post pics of the result once done
  4. I've just read throught this entire post and summise that its induction related, have you all changed your airfilters recently? Someone mentioned having a HKS mushroom filter, first off, get rid, they are shite, they disintergrate and end up flying into your turbo.
  5. Cheers Gaz, just bought one from your fine selves
  6. About to order a steering wheel from miami GT but I need the boss kit, anyone know where I can get one?
  7. Whilst in boarding school down in Easy Sussex, me and a few mates thought it would be funny to use gone off fish that someone had caught in the cuckmere river and left in the fridge for weeks in some sort of prank. We lived in a boarding house that had a house master, which was the schools chemistry teacher. One Sunday, we broke into his bedroom and ripped up the floorboards under his radiator and placed the fish there. To say it stunk was an understatement, the whole house reeked heavily of fish to the point where it hit your gag reflex when you stood near his room. However, we were totally unaware of the fact that he had been in an unfortunate accident years before involving a bunsen burner and had burnt his nasal receptors which in turn affected his sense of smell, to the point where he didn't have any. A week went passed and the cleaner came in to go over the place, on walking into his room, she was physically sick. It was reported to the school and the whole house was condemned until the source of the smell was found. The ripped up all the floorboards and found the culprit fish, they instantly knew it was me and my mates who did it and they interrogated us one by one until one of us confessed. Using the old, tell us who did it and you'll only be suspended, whereas everyone else involved would be expelled. My so called good mate bubbled me up and I was expelled for it.
  8. I've fitted a set of these in the rear on my supe, only took 20mins to fit. Produce a lovely sound and I highly recommend them for replacing knackered stock ones.
  9. That car is mucho phatness, lovin it mate, deffo one of the finest around
  10. You are one unlucky dude, as mentioned above, stem seals won't do any harm for a while so just save a bit every few months then get them done, that way its a lot less painfull on the wallet.
  11. Knightracer do TRD's, they were doing them on special offer, no sure any more though. Check my garage for pis of the knightracer on, perfect fit. EDIT - I just gave away a stock spoiler for free at the santa pod day, not that you wanted to know that
  12. I thought I was the only red one round here, guess not. Car was looking nice though.
  13. Just to make sure, you do realise I'm not talking about making it play in a DVD player, it'll be a WMV/HD playable in xbox360's (in High def) or PC's with half decent graphics cards.
  14. Clean out your idle speed contol valve first with carb cleaner. Its probably just got crap in it.
  15. hmmm, all good, keep'em coming, not the spoiler thingy though, never liked em.
  16. How would that benefit me? My cars running stock, with cats still in.
  17. It is a good box, not as good as my FTO one though, that thing was amazing.
  18. The missus is asking me what I want for my Supra for my Birthday present. Budget is around £150. My ideas so far are a steering wheel, or an indiglo HKS boost gauge to match my dials. What do you guys think?
  19. Probably not from putfile. If you want it in good quality, like WMV/HD quality, I was thinking of putting it on some DVD's and flogging them (at no personal gain to me ) The HD version looks sweet, but is over 2300mb's I know nothing of this dragonball, someone point me in the right direction and I'll let you know
  20. LOL, I think it was markyboy who said to me at the Toddington services that I was waving around a bit while filming with my arm out the window. Brilliant fun though.
