  1. If it makes you feel any better. Those photos are really great quality, love the blur . Your car also looks really clean, not an easy feat in the recent weather
  2. Is that black one with the 18" Antera wheels Supra-T's old car? (the guy who lied about buying a 50% share in AFR, then proceeded to stalk JP before being banned)
  3. He's using Kaoss pads to loop his sounds, but as far as I'm aware, he's the only one that can do it so well.
  4. This guy's a legend. Wait until the cheese song Skip to 12.50 for the cheese song. Edit to add, there's some bad language in it for those in earshot of delicate audiences.
  5. My plate falls off all the time , only been pulled once on it, showed the officer the plate in the back with the roll of numberplate double sided adhesive tape, then moved quickly on to him oogling the car
  6. I've run falkens on my last 3 cars. I find them a great all round tyre, though when new, they are lethal. Maybe that's what the problem is you've had Boomstick?. I found they take more scrubbing in than other tyres, but once done, they improve substantially. I fitted 4 new falkens to my S2000 and it nearly killed me on the first outing. It had been raining all day and the rear end refused to stay straight. A little burnout later though and it was all good.
  7. I'll be watching the normal HD version then. The problem with avatar was I kept trying to focus on the background in some of the scenes that are intentionally blurred to give a depth of field effect. I had to take the glasses off and rub my eyes about 5 times throughout the film. Most of the background in the film is in focus on the HD version and the level of detail in the scene is hugely improved. Seems mad to go to all that effort in creating an amazing lush beautiful scene, then blur half of it out for the sake of 3d.
  8. How long is the film?, Wearing the 3d glasses too long gives me a headache.
  9. I heard that new engines from toyota had build issues leaving them 'unfinished'. Can't remember the details, but it was something like rough edges on machined parts which then later became the death of its short life.
  10. Baileyjdm, I think you should change the hello t88 in your sig......
  11. I love the GTLM's too mate, it's taken me a while to adjust, I still have trouble looking at DarronQ's car with them on and get a tinge that I made a bad decision. But they were going bad with laquer peel, hence the change. The Dynas are growing on me more, especially when people confirm my choice when seeing them in the flesh. I think they update the car considerbly compared to the GTLM's, and make it look more aggressive. Thanks for the compliment though No mate, they have several different fitment options with PCD's and offsets, but the 10" rear is the widest. We missed you at Bluey on Friday mate, I wanted to see what you've been doing to yours lately.
  12. Rota GTLM 8.5 front 10 rear 235/35/19 275/30/19 Linea Corse Dynas in shadow chrome, same sizes and tyres as above.
  13. He's rebuilt that car already.
  14. Coming along nicely this one, will be a real head turner when finished. How the hell are you going to get it out of the access road though, that frontend looks a tad low ? Also, are you able to use the stock front undertray with that bumper, as it doesn't look like it has one intergrated into its design.?
  15. Some insane bays in this thread, sdistc and Hodge's efforts are mindblowingly brilliant. The red one is nice, but I don't think it's a members car so I'm not including it
  16. Both my TT front undertrays were plastic, as far as I'm aware, the only different types were whether or not you had an active front spoiler.
  17. Worn shocks and springs mate, I had it on my old supe. I suggest a nice set of adjustable coilovers for xmas
  18. Bump with new reduced mega low price.......£550 for a 55" plasma.
  19. Nope, not at all. My last supra never had a BOV when I bought it, so I fitted the SSQV. My current supra had the Bailey on it when I got it, it still works fine, so I've no need to change it. I was only letting the OP know what my thoughts were on the SSQV.
  20. The only issue I have with the SSQV is the noise it makes. I used to have one and got fed up with the chirp noise they make. I have a cheapo Bailey one on my current supe which is no where near as good quality, but the noise is much better. It's a nice loud PTOOOOSH noise. I had a turbosmart valve on my Scooby prior to my current supra, that also made better noise than the SSQV but was not as loud as the bailey.
  21. Looking pretty damn awesome Hodge. I also love the blended look, but I was advised against it on my current car saying that cracking can occur where the bodywork bends. However, I'm now convinced it's down to who does it. My old red car that Mark Newman now owns had the full OEM kit blended and it still to this day over 3 years later is in perfect condition. My current car which was done just over a year ago is showing stress lines in the paint where it's blended already.
  22. Not at all digging the Supra one......but the 370z at the bottom of the page looks nice.
