  1. What email service do you use? I use gmail and it is superb at filtering spam so i never get it, i just pop in the spam folder every few months to press delete on it all. Maybe there are some settings you can play with through your email provider?
  2. Pretty much throughout the day so long s Im not too busy with work, Id say im on here about 10x times more than any other website or social media site, including facebook........which I hate
  3. love the detail, they look great! It is such an artform, been watching tattoo fixers a lot recently and cant believe how they can produce such detail on skin with a needle and some ink!
  4. looks stunning mate I bet you are very happy with this purchase
  5. well it appears I put these on too high so i have dropped them a lot now mate, however if you have some UK's they will be very sought after if in good nick, GLWS
  6. Now reduced as it appears I overpriced these, I was looking at what some breakers sell indiviual calipers on ebay at and tried to be competitive, turns out they are way overpriced anyway thank you to those who got in touch privately with advice and not dumping on my thread, I do appreciate it hopefully this is now a bargain for someone!
  7. Great glad its of use to people
  8. Yeah thanks for that mate id of been stuffed without your advice and would no way have got the ball rolling with it
  9. ha ha, yep! to be honest they have been that good I didnt feel the need to change urgently, Ive had a brand new full UK set up ready to go on for a while now just not had the time to get it sorted

  11. Jspec full brake set up: These are coming of my car next week so up for sale, anyone local considering buying and wants to come for a test drive in the car before they are removed is very welcome to check you are happy with them. Callipers of my car (62,000 mileage) which was freshly imported in 2014 and hasn’t seen any salt or wet roads so everything is in very good condition. Includes: 2 x front jspec callipers 2 x front jspec discs 2 x front pads 2x front brake hoses All bolts to mount 2 x rear jspec callipers 2 x rear jspec discs 2 x rea pads 2x rear brake hoses All bolts to mount Firstly on my MOT last year I was told there is plenty of life left in the discs and pads, I can feel a small groove on the lip of the disc from use but don’t know what constitutes plenty of life. The car has been sorn pretty much since then for the winter in a heated garage and only been on the road once last week. All the brakes are in perfect working order, I was also told they have Endelss pads in which would explain why they do actually stop the car very well! I am not stating they have Endless pads all round because I was just told this and have not actually looked myself at the rear, but the fronts are 100% Endless CCX pads as shown in pics. Also I am including brake hoses just because they look in good condition and I have braided lines to put on my new brakes, again I have not factored this into the price below as I would always recommend new hoses or braded lines instead, however they are coming with the kit should someone want them and provided there is no issues removing them. Price: £150 + £25 postage to UK mainland (anyone paying by paypal must pay fees or gift, otherwise direct bank transfer please) All in all they are in great condition, you can still see the Supra writing as pictured, would look great with some paint These are being removed next week so will be sent w/c 11th April anyone local is welcome to ride along for a test drive before removal And pics:
  12. im drooling over your garage right now, and the Supra, looking very tasty mate, congratulations
  13. This is a used genuine Toyota Supra OEM 2jz VVTi Oil Control Valve (OCV). This is the valve that controls the oil pressure sent to the VVTi intake cam gear assembly. This was removed from my 1998 62,000 mile VVTI supra and is in perfect working order. These are £120 plus VAT new from Toyota £25+ £5 postage (if paypal must pay fees or gift) Thanks Matt
  14. Hello mate, yes, I actually had my 1st session this week (Saturday just gone). My main advice would be go to a few places for consultation, and pick one you like, is professional, you feel comfortable at etc! The 1st place I went to put me right off, but the next one was fantastic and I booked my first session straight after. As for how it went it was fine, however I did use the EMLA cream mentioned in this thread earlier and dropped some pain killers with coffee before hand (caffeine helps circulate the pain killers round the body, yes I’m a wimp). I found the lazering (from the test patch on 1st consultation) too painful without the numbing cream due to the size of my tattoo and the time/amount of lazering per session it would take, in addition a lot of it is on my spine so not the best place pain wise . Anyway I had the entire tattoo lazered for the 1st of probably 12 sessions staggered every 6-8 weeks, the pain was minimal if you can even call it pain, more just uncomfortable due to the EMLA cream and pain killers I guess. It’s going to take a while, probably over a year and a half, but I hate the tattoo now so instead of hating it for the rest of my life I look at it like I only have to put up with it for 1-2 years max With the EMLA cream, if you end up using it, apply it thick 2 hours minimum before, cover with Clingfilm and use medical tape to keep it in place, if it all soaks in after an hour maybe top up with some more, it honestly made the whole process easy. If you don’t use anything then good on you, you’re much tougher than I am! As you probably know the lazer doesn’t remove the ink, it just breaks it down so your body can remove it via your blood stream over time, hence why results take a long time with this, but I am 100% convinced for me, it will be worth it! Hope this helps!
  15. Bad luck that mate! Would of been better for your health and wallet to leave the car in the garage!
  16. Shame to hear this as I've never had problems with them, they do sell cheaper older tyres as well as new but the date of manufacture is always displayed before buying
