  1. Definitely the NES for me. The SNES was awesome with regards to graphics and gameplay but there is nothing more satisfying then only having 2 buttons and a D pad. Super Mario 3 is still one of my top 5 games ever too
  2. Was driving back to Long Stratton from work and spotted a stock looking silver turning to go towards Norwich
  3. I should imagine it's only a positive and negative wire? So if you've already got a leccy drivers seat then you could piggyback 2 wires to that and run it to the passenger side. Admittedly you won't have an OEM plug but it'd definitely work
  4. You will need to trim it a lot and the fg or screw it to you pillar and possibly cover it or paint if making it smooth. Worth it though if you get a weekend cos i love mine!
  5. I've got 19s on now, ride is definitely harsher than the 18s I had, but 19s look so much better. Only find it a problem when the roads aren't that great, but I don't mind as I expect it to be a bit bumpy, it's the passengers that complain!! http://img810.imageshack.us/img810/5796/46556101502490378406485.jpg
  6. Certainly looks pretty special, only thing that puzzles me is the ice install, it looks totally out of place compared to the rest of the car. Don't know why there wasn't a proper boot build done rather than that huge thing shoved in the back
  7. Well i guess CG still make it, its like a glaze that you put on after polishing then you need to seal it in with a sealent and/or a wax, just adds a bit more 'wetness' to the look
  8. Dodo is awesome quality for a reasonable price compared to waxes of similar calibre Haven't seen that CG Black Light before though.... I'm a bit of a CG whore so will probably end up buying it and combining it with their Wet Mirror Finish, makes a black car look amazing
  9. I brouht a universal one on ebay and trimmed the edges to fit. If i had more time i would have fg'd it in to the pillar but instead i just screwed it to it and covered it in black trim to make it look ok. It was only about £20 as well
  10. Looks good, what did you use to clean them up, and did you do them on the car? (just so I can get some pointers for when I attempt to do it!)
  11. Shima, were you ever on PUK as I'm sure I've seen those pictures on there...
  12. I had the same problem last year and it takes ages with just metal polish on a rag (took me about half an hour to get an area 10cm clean), so I'd suggest instead of using a rag use a very fine sandpaper (i.e. something around 1500-2000 grit) soaked in soapy water, and use that with metal polish to take most of the corrosion off, then to polish out those polishing marks go over it with metal polish on a rag which will be a lot easier and take them all out. This will of course only work on an un-lacquered wheel. Autosol is still quite a good product for initial cleaning, Megs NXT Metal Polysh is also really good on it's own to take out the polishing marks. If you spend a bit more then you can get Belgom Alu which is my second choice of metal polish after Megs. As someone else said, Poorboys Wheel Sealant is your friend after you've got them clean, although you will need to wash (soapy water is fine) once a week or so and reapply the sealant as it will easily be removed with the roads as they are at the mo, and with brake dust etc

    s2000 faults???

    Haven't owned one but owned a few Hondas, and as said they are pretty much bullet proof if you service them. A lot of people don't like vtec on the Honda engines as you need to keep the revs over 5000rpm to get any usable power, but if you are used to driving like that then you'll love it. I had a 4th gen prelude and to really get it to go you had to go up to the rev limit (~8500rpm) before changing gear, otherwise when you change gear you drop below the vtec crossover point. For some people I can see that they wouldn't like to rev it that high all the time, but as I said they are really resilient. Anyway, if I had the money I'd love to own a S2000, so go for it!
  14. Heated folding mirrors would be the ultimate plan (I really miss the folding aspect as I had them on my prelude - great for tight spaces and my garage!), just gotta find a complete set
  15. I'm assuming you need the car wiring looms and some button to retrofit them properly?
  16. DC2 seats are extremely comfy, but as you say you'd end up looking like a supra version of the ITR. S2000 seats would be a good option if you want to change seats
  17. Why play the lottery if you don't need anything else in life???
  18. Wow blast from the past, I remember reading about this when it happened at the time
  19. This one?: http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/6464/prelude.jpg I saw it once when we had a prelude meet up yarmo, it was done at SID (who are well known for their airbrushing as you say), definitely a good job but wasted on a car unless you have a 'show car' that needs attention
  20. Thought it had been out a while free on Android cos I got it last friday, but they only had it from a sister site and not the marketplace Anyway, if you only download one game for free download this, it's awesome

    501 LED's

    SMDs are stupidly bright compared to regular LEDs, i've done my sidelights, rear number plate and interiors with the SMDs and its such an improvement. All were cheapy sets of ebay and have been fine for a year
  22. Hmmm it's still tempting! How come they're red now?
  23. Just purchased, can't argue for £3.50 really. Shame I brought the remade MI2 a while ago and now they've got 1+2 pack on steam cheap, I just want 1 on it's own but it's still £7
  24. Damn, I paid that for our 37" LCD, although admittedly that was 3 years ago Hmmmm might have to start saving if prices are going to be like this for a while
