  1. My clutch as issues atm and I couldn't get into gear the other night, Im changing my cylinders
  2. Thanks for the responses guys.. Yer I know I will love it again when its all working.. Stock clutch wore out in less than a year on my BPU Supra and I'm planning on single turbo this year so need a good clutch. Could be Slave and Master cylinders so I'm getting them changed 1st.
  3. I can't stand my Supra ATM I'm so pissed off at it. I spend all the money I earn on it, buying the best I can afford with it and it still does a number on me!!! This damn clutch!! I was nearly stuck miles from home tonight. I was driving down a bypass and I put my foot down only a little (I've been driving sensibly with this clutch problem) and the clutch heavily slipped, so eased off the throttle and stayed in that gear and came to a round about. When I took it out that gear the clutch pedal was very soft and I could feel vibration through the pedal and I couldn't get it it in any gear. When I tried to force it into gear the car would try to move forward like my foot was off the pedal but it wasn't liking it at all. So I turned the engine off. Put it in gear and turned over the engine while pushing the clutch pedal down and the flywheel rattled very loudly and the car wouldn't start. So I sat there with the engine off and hazards on for a few minutes before calling the AA out (not as if there would be able to do much) but before I called I thought as the clutch would have cooled down now I'll give it another go. Started the car out of gear and managed to get it into 3rd so I drove home sitting at 40mph in 3rd. Time I got home I could get all gears working and its back to its original problem with the biting point being pretty much on the top of the pedal and it not feeling as snappy as it did. I went for a drive to let my mind go to ease my thoughts and this happens! Will I get stuck on the way to work if I drive very carefully? Who knows! Piece of crap! And I have one of my directors in tomorrow with my promotion inline... And ontop of that my fuel level is stayed on full! So clocks have to come out out again.... Sorry for the rant but I hate the damn thing at the moment.... Only 10 months ago a stage 4 clutch went in...
  4. This country is just full of stupid people that listen to what the government have to say, think how much tax on that fuel is going into the governments pockets, its like the resection, us as the public make the resection. i.e: NEWS FLASH THERES A RESECTION. So Mr Smith doesn't buy his new Honda (in case of money issues) So Mr Marks can't buy his new TV (as he didn't make the commission on the Honda) So Mrs Caves can't buy her new bike (as she has lost her job form lack on TV sales) Then I can't modify my Supra more as I haven't sold as many bikes. ... I'm bloody sick of stupidity.. This country is run by imbeciles!! Don't blame the public for panicing as such blame the muppets that worn people about the petrol strike!!
  5. Nice vids guys not that i have seen them b4 lol Spent some hours at work striping it, cleaning it and upgrading it and covering up some marks.. Its looks pretty plush atm Went on my 1st ride on it tonight.. It certainly likes staying on the back wheel so its a well designed frame.. Will gets some vids up once it get myself back on form lol..
  6. Took 4 hours of driving it was certainly worth it. Its worth £700 and I picked it up from a genuine lad from his home for £175 This will be my 4th time getting back into trials, and I'm really up for getting out there to ride. http://img806.imageshack.us/img806/1967/20120328231849.jpg Paul

  8. I bought my trial rear bumper from them... Was a nice fit
  9. Was he busting his wicked sick break dance moves? Or rapping to some bad ass tunes?
  10. Heckler makes the PCB's fella. The ICV unit was really straight forward. Took about 30 mins for removal, cleaning and reinstalling. I haven't really tested it yet to truly test any improvements but I didn't notice anything in my small drive I took.
  11. Well today has been eventful. I put Ice Cream Sandwich OS on my Galaxy S II Then I cleaned out and serviced my idle control valve. Did some interior L.E.D work (thanks Heckler for the l.e.ds and PCBs) and refitted my fuel needle so it was more accurate. Few pics for you all: Heater control unit now had a Red l.e.d instead of a blue on in the 30 degree area has that the "hot" temperature lol http://img831.imageshack.us/img831/1554/20120325224142.jpg Needles have PCB's with red l.e.ds behind them so the needles glow a vibrant red when the lights are turned on Picture doesn't do it justace http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/3492/20120325224152.jpg A shot of the full night view. Sorry for the shaky hand.. Was pretty exhausted. http://img843.imageshack.us/img843/6002/20120325224246.jpg Paul...
  12. Im on level 41 at 75 hours.. Loving it... Its like a time travelling machine. I load up Skyrim and then before I know it 4 hours have passed lol I'm on PC btw... Looks incrediable
  13. I haven't but a helpful post to some
  14. Mate there are some utter tools on here but there are more non douches than douches.... I maybe wrong but I believe you came into some personal issues recently.. I gave up alot when it happened to me without realising that it wasn't the fact that "I lost interest in that hobby" but it was infact some rubbish like my sub conscious saying "what the point" I'd wait till the sun comes out... And see were the road takes you Sorry if my lame psychoanalysis had no meaning as it wasn't you that had a recent personal change in life..
  15. haha brilliant you work at a Zoo!!
  16. Thanks for the replys guys... Looking at getting more of a modern trials bike (no seat) like my koxx had. I have found as great deal and knocked him down a bit.. But hes 2 1/2 hours away!
