  1. Exactly the same thing with mine. Just insulated the terminals and your laughing.
  2. I swear I just googled it........
  3. Have you tried http://www.ejectorseats.co.uk? They have a wanted and for sale section. You may also want to go down to your local WHS and but aircraft monthyl or aeroplane monthly. Both of these list suppliers who might have some spares.
  4. For info the MOD release a listing document of all serving officers in the armed forces with rank and name. This publication is available to the public and even lists branches of service. However I see your point
  5. No not me mate, I was the Deputy Station Intel Officer in 2003 for about 9-10 months. Let me think the Station Cmdr was Group Captin Milburn, the COS was Wg Cdr Scott. The SIntO was FLt Lt??????? with Cpl (now Sgt) ???????. I drove a blue peugeot 206 at the time.
  6. If you say so mate.........better to enjoy it then hate it I supose!!!!
  7. Thats shit mate..sorry to hear your over there!!!! Working you to your bones I take it. I PVR'd about a year and half back, travelling was killing my marriage!! I still miss all my mates though, loved the people just not the job (especially the postings abroad). Odiham is a great place, just not if your a junior rank living in the tempory accomodation on the old caravan site....lol
  8. Heckler - Cheers mate. I will go for the 8000mcd ones and instal as instructed on your site. TrickTT - Again cheers mate, I'll get a sufficiently wide angled LED to help. Heckler - Sorry to stray a little but your in the RAF right?? Based out of RAF Odiham. The reason I ask is that I was posted there 2-3years back. Hows things!!
  9. Want to change the colour of my dials, I bought a Thor (Metal Monkey) steel dial set with a blue backing, but the light is quite dull and not very well dispersed. So.... I want to install LED to make them brighter but i have a few questions? 1. What LED's should I use, that is to say what brightness?? 1500mcd/4000mcd or I have seen 8000mcd neon blue LED's??? 2. Has anyone used the Ultraleds.co.uk direct bulb replacements. If so what was the result, any pictures? 3. How have people resolved the poor diffusion of light issue with LED's. I have see a diffusion material available from the metal monkey site. Anyone tried this?? Lots of questions as usual but any advise would be great. Before anyone says have you looked at hecklers site (I think it's his) then I have but it does not answer these question. Being a good sport I will photograph my dash conversion and the various results (Hopefully will be done over the christmas period) once finished. Ta
  10. I am currently looking for a new set of rear tyres. I currently have Pirelli P Zero nero's 265/35 93Y 18'' on the rear. These have been great tyres and I would like to replace them. However, I was also thinking of increasing the depth to 45, the same as my fronts. If I do this will the ride be less harsh, currently running on Tein Flex with EDFC, and would I have to have the suspension adjusted??? I ask as I haven't a clue!!
  11. I've only had one drift on a roadabout, however, it was my fault. I wasn't paying attention and as previously mentioned I blasted the throttle. The rear end bounced slightly and the tail end wen't stupidly wide. luckily I remained composed and sorted it (that last bit was fictional, infact I crapped myself and magically regained control before the rearend struck the oncoming traffic!!) It was wet and I will never do it again..... What do people think of Pirelli PZero Nero's. I have these all round. They seem OK and I can get 265/35 18's for £130. is that good??
  12. Cheers guys. Like I said I knew I was missing something!!! Will look at u torrent for the torrent software and then download a copy of the EPC. Wasn't looking for any part in particular, It's just nice to have quick access to this information for when things are needed or go wrong.
  13. As usual looking for parts . Does anyone have: 1. Complete cigarette lighter with plastic surround and the bulb and connector from the loom side. 2. Standard digital clock. Would like in as close to mint condition as possible please. Ta..
  14. Anyone got any pictures of Supra's done by any of the above suppliers other than Supradibbs (Picture available in his trader section). Looking to get a retrim done next year with my bodywork and respray!!!.
  15. Sorry not very good with this stuff. How do I use this file? when I try and download this to my computer it opens in notepad and is next to useless. Pretty sure I missing something here????
  16. Did you get my message regarding V70 compatability and the ECU/Immobiliser issue???
  17. Replaced the Dash on my Supra a couple of weeks ago. Recently put it back together having labelled every plug, nut and bolt. All was fine before but now the car wont start!!! I think its the alarm. Prior to the instal the battery went (would this cause a problem) flat and now when the battery is connected (having been rechaged) all the electrics work, lights, horn etc.. however the alrm is dead and thus I can't start the car. I have plugged everything in as it was having labelled every connection. The alarm is a Clifford 950 with Intellistart. I have contacted the only approved dealer (According to the clifford website) remotely near me and they don't provide a mobile service. I have tried a few other places but the mention of Clifford and Supra sends them into cardiac failure. Most say at best bring it down so we can have a look. I would love to however the car wont start due to the immobiliser etc... Anyone any bright ideas? I have checked and then rechecked all the connections, but it looks like there is no power getting to the alarm, or its not earthing properly, but I can't be sure as I'm no auto electrician!!! The car is currently at my brothers in Bordon, Hants (He is a sparky and wont touch Clifford alarms, nor will any of his 2 other fitter firends). Anyone know a fitter or can help in any other way (Dispair, Dispair, Dispair)
  18. Nic does them for £82 (incl delivery) Tried a few other places but to no avail.
  19. Dibs on the spoiler mate. How much do you want for it?
  20. Looks great. A mix between Gladiator and the Matrix!! I think the same battle was covered in the book Spartan by Valerio Massiom Manfredi. They were stupidly proficient killing machines and hated weakness. Husbands would allow their wives to have sex with stronger men to breed strength into the bloodline. Here ends the lesson!!
