  1. Like, hellooooo? It's 2012 now Josh. The truth is no longer a defence. You're either with us or you're with the terrorists.
  2. You have to open your third eye and become one with the hose Chris. I read that in 'Zen and The Art of Hosepipe Maintenance'. So began my long and arduous journey of spiritual enlightenment through the foothills of the Himalayas, in search of The Truth.
  3. When I was a small boy my father taught me how to find inner tube punctures by putting them in a bowl of water to see where the bubbles came out. Seriously, start the engine from cold and use a spray bottle of water to soak the manifold area before it gets hot.
  4. You know, that new guy that got the hump when no-one replied to his welcome thread. The thread soon went into several hundred pages of people asking where he went until there was enough material to write a screenplay. The movie just came out in selected theatres but received mixed reviews.
  5. Ooooh, shiny bits. I like shiny bits. Have a good weekend Dave and hope you have time to get some graft in eh?
  6. Have you grounded the exhaust on anything lately then? I had a similar noise from my Granada 2.8i years ago from scraping a baffle box on a concrete ramp and it split the sheet metal bit. Needless to say, applying packing tape to it didn't last long but it got me home without waking half of Aldershot!
  7. I must admit, I too have been guilty of falling for some outrageous conspiracy theories myself so Jazz isn't alone. For example, the ridiculous idea that a Boeing 767 crashed into the Pentagon on 9/11, leaving only a 16ft hole and no plane wreckage. No engines, no wings, no video evidence except 5 frames of doctored footage of a missile and an added date stamp of 9/12/2001 and the word, 'plane' in the lower right hand corner. Was it 2 or 4 years of protesting to get any video whatsoever released of this 156ft long, 44ft high jet airliner. I was really stupid, as the windows directly above the entry hole were all perfectly intact until the upper floors collapsed. Oh, I remember, the tail fell off and vaporised along with the wings. Steel and titanium jet engines vaporised on impact! Boy was I dumb to have ever believed that. Actually I'm fibbing slightly as it was and is obvious what happened to anyone who does any thinking. I do apologise if you were not generalising and meant only the entire contents of Jazz's web link.
  8. Apparently they give you big, strong bones
  9. That's because you tried to make sense of nonsense. It causes a breach in the space-time continuum, (like the Philadelphia Project) and your mi d is uck d down a wor ole................
  10. I think there's an echo in here!
  11. I think I wrote it whilst I was being abducted by an Alan. When I woke up I realised I'd been missing Tim. God, my jokes are a Pauling. Try to read between the Linus.
  12. Here you go http://en.trade2cn.com/detail/product.action?productId=111026091915pi8
  13. I wonder if Aliens like bread and which brand they'd prefer? I'm guessing Warburton's Seeded Batch. I live on the stuff and I like Aliens, unless they're from Alpha Draconis or Beta Lyrae. Edit; sorry for being Speciesist but seriously, they're terrible drivers; something to do with extra-gravitic overcompensation. Makes them oversteer all the time. Where was Paul from?
  14. With my conversion, one bulb type wouldn't fit. The metal tabs are different to prevent incorrect fitment so best get a new pair that fit and take the light with you, as I did, to be sure. Bulbs are only a few quid and not worth bodging if you ask me. It was the cut-out in the flange being slightly different and the bulb orientation being twisted if bodged.
  15. I still don't know how pistons ever came into it. Then again, I drove my car for a year without realising the sidelights were fog lights.
  16. What's that got to do with the price of bread?
  17. A blown exhaust gasket on the end of the downpipe perhaps at the exhaust manifold?
  18. Trust him Just listened with my iStethescope (iPhone headphones) and it sounds like one of your baffle boxes has a split seam.

    Only if they're badly corroded but even then, they'll clean up with a single cut file. It will only be around the seal lip.

    Yeah, remember the 6 P rule..... Proper Preparation Prevents P!ss Poor Performance

    That's handy! Mine are gathering dust; well the box is.
  23. End Of Days was a good movie. I thought so anyway. At the end of the day, it gets very dark.

    I have an unused, as new boxed pair of D2, 8 pot 356mm's for sale if you want them. I paid £899 a year ago but never fitted them to a car I sold as the wheels need to be 19's. My current Supra has stock wheels so I need to buy new wheels or sell these... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TOYOTA-SUPRA-MK4-JZA80-356-D2-FRONT-BIG-BRAKE-DISC-KIT-/320534863868 I'd take £800 but tbh, I would rather buy new 19" wheels/tyres and fit them as intended than accept less. The quality is superb throughout except the 'anti-rattle' clips which are poorly designed and don't spring open the pads but rather, apply pressure to the top edges only. Nothing to stop normal springs being fitted though, as the pads all have holes for them. Identical to those listed above, as purchased from them.
  25. I'm a Co-creator and I believe in Science.
