  1. "And oi waant some scatter cushions fer me Maaa!"
  2. Wow, the perp even had the nerve to do donuts infront of the cops! Unbelievable footage. I hope no-one was injured in that chase. Wild stuff man!
  3. I bet if you poured a bucket of water over that engine, none of it would drip out the bottom!
  4. I've always liked Skylines and tbh, whenever I see one on the road, I still think to myself, "Maybe one day I'll get one to see what all the fuss is about." I agree about the R33 styling being a bit Soarer like but I wouldn't mind this as a second car.... http://pistonheads.com/sales/3554905.htm
  5. Guy Ritchie would be proud. No doubt some anorak will point out that the pikeys were in Snatch and not Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels Or were they in both? Can't remember now.
  6. What is reality Neo, I mean Nigel?
  7. And goodbye to whoever offered you only £160! That's just taking the Michael.
  8. Sunday Telegraph front page headline: "Body of joiner found in skip full of MDF after wage row. MI6/Mossad involvement suspected." Somehow I don't think so!
  9. So sue me for having an imagination. Anyway, I don't need drugs. Talking shite comes naturally to me. The story about my workmate is true though, as was my wee accident back in 2000.
  10. If I told my boss that I'd jump off the roof if he didn't give me a rise, he'd probably give me a ladder and tell me to make sure I landed in the skip so I didn't mess up the yard.
  11. Sorry to hear about this mate, as I spun my MkIII into a barrier coming off a roundabout once on an adverse camber, in the wet with almost slick rear tyres but still legal, on a quiet Sunday morning rushing to clock in at work 26 miles away and knowing that I would only just make it. Luckily it was minor damage and I fixed it. Tough cars them. I'm glad you're doing the right thing though, re. the other car but see if you can settle that in cash. Legally, of course, you 'have' to 'fess up but it will be expensive for a long time vs. a one-off payment. That is if they don't claim for whiplash, of course! At least you didn't roll through a brick wall and land in someone's living room on your roof like a guy I worked with once. He was on speed he said, chasing his mate around a corner in an Escort late one evening and he lost control, went through a wall and then literally into the house. He just got out of the upside-down car, right infront of the sofa and said of the damage, "Oh, that'll be ok" etc. and kept talking about how he was going to be a big shot in The City (as he was a stock trader back in the 80's) and the couple who were sitting watching telly just stared at him in shock. Just incase you need a laugh, no offence guys! I just made the names up and Nigel is the one on the right. Lamp, Stock Supra & Two Smoking Tyres "What was that Nigel? A wounded Zebra?" "No, 'arry, I said Supra, you Muppet!" "Right, get the bricks 'arry. I'm 'avin' the wheels and young Trevor can 'ave the stereo. 'e's good wiv electrics, aincha my Son? 'e's got one of those Nundildo Sexboxes." "Now 'urry up, before those ***kin' pikeys see it. They'll 'ave it stripped bare before you can say caravan." "I ***kin' 'ate pikeys." "Shut up 'arry and get that jack ready."
  12. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2085005/300-Foxcon-staff-Xbox-360-plant-China-threaten-mass-suicide-pay.html#ixzz1jH5DECZg If you made a movie about current affairs and sent it back to the 80's, no-one would believe it, even as a work of science-fiction.
  13. I'd expect more of a 'hissing phap' if it's coming from the header flange to block gasket as the note is too deep and reverberant. It's as likely the lower downpipe to straight union in the 3rd and 4th pics, since there are only two bolts and it really should have three. Also, they're oriented 90 degrees out, so any bending forces will open a gap at the bottom, esp. when it warms up and expands. Ed. actually, it does sound very phappy and it's the note from the exit that threw me. I'd replace the gaskets with steel ringed ones if they aren't already, so they can't blow and have more bite. The flat pressed ones with no re-enforcing rings will compress over time and obviously loosen. No amount of bolt tightening will seal if the flange bends and you might find that the tighter you torque them, the less it seals, as you're bending the flange more.
  14. You're talking to me now. I shouldn't have to remind you that 'we' have been using radioactive 'Depleted Uranium' nuclear weapons for years against at least two sovereign nations and have all but destroyed them. This is about the Scientist that was just taken out... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/iran/9009914/Iran-called-on-to-retaliate-against-Israel-over-killing-of-nuclear-expert.html and this is about the Israeli sabre rattling... http://rense.com/general95/rhett.htm
  15. To put that in perspective, I just paid £150 for a car cover. It's also only two tanks of petrol for a Supra.
  16. Can I recommend that you get a custom 3" downpipe to the lower driver's bumper cover inlet? It creates a ram air effect as you have a proper scoop whereas the headlight area will flow more air over it than into it, as it's behind the leading edge and at an angle. My previous NA had a cone filter right in the lower inlet and it absolutely screamed along. No idea of horsepower but it makes my TT feel incredibly sluggish and that's saying something. In fact I'd happily go back to it, it had that much punch. Obviously it lacked mid-range but had loads of torque. The longer the intake piping, the more torque at low rev's, as you're reducing turbulence in the airflow. Something like that.
  17. Wow, that looks really tidy and I'm digging the seats. Only £200? Best get some chain mail gauntlets!
  18. I thought that Ed was a part of the furniture but this is getting out of hand. Next thing we know, he'll be coming out of the closet! Sorry, seriously, if you ask me, the insurance company should be given a right dressing gown.....I mean, down. They should have had this whole thing sorted, quick as a flash! You should have got the car armoire plated. Sorry, I'll get my coat.
  19. What induction system do you have?
  20. On radio 4 on Thursday I heard the former head of The Mossad, Danny something, stating quite clearly that it's ok to use 'clandestine activities' like the recent car bombing of a top Iranian Nuclear Physicist to stop Iran gaining a nuclear weapons capability. These Israeli's will stop at nothing. Abz is absolutely spot on.
