  1. Red alert 2 was good. shame it got a bit cartoon like. I've got the new tiberium wars somewhere, PC could load it so not even played it yet. Are those tesla's being sold much? At my college few years ago there was a company selling electric bikes. They had a function on few months back again. People must be buying them or the bank is just lending them more money if they are still going.
  2. ray you've a PM regarding this. btw thanks for the cams, they are the shizz.
  3. My ex's mum was chatting to a guy online for aaaaages and he wanted to come over and see her. She sent him a grand and never heard from him again! whooops.
  4. go na-t... boast you have gone single then
  5. My supra is lowered, I don't have issues with the arch's on my 17-275-45 but i had issues with my 265-40-18 so i had to raise it a little, changed to 275 and still had no issues. its an arch issue not a width. probably lowered even more than i am. i wouldnt think anyone would have issues unless they have lowered too far on soft setting. stock arch on slightly lowered would be fine, only require rolled archs if you go super low. here is a photo of how low my supra is. i have HSD's and they aren't on soft settting. photo shows AFTER i raised, and no 275 issues, arches are stock.
  6. Get some micro fibre drying towls mate. Don't leave lines and better for your paintwork if you catch a bit of dirt won't scratch. 10x for 10quid delivered ebay! Best buy I've ever done for cleaning products. Good size to
  7. its Do Luck mate. RARE as hell. if someone could get the dimensions for this bad boy, maybe a group buy form paul whiffin ? ? ?
  8. http://pistonheads.co.uk/sales/2954034.htm this is listed as `veilside`... what the heck is it?
  9. how many dots around inside of the rim... bag of haribo if you get it right first time!
  10. i wasnt trying to give you a lesson on cam shafts mate i just miss understood your reasons against re grinds. it would make sense not to re grind a casting, but it be ok for steel due to the different manufacturing process. indeed i have heard people speak badly of TTC, but i read somewhere they send their cams to webcams in america. unsure of a contact for this company, i thought i would ask you guys first if it's worth the hassle. people turn the boost up in GE's all the time, risking blowing them up saying they are so cheap why not have some fun, so i just thought this may be an option to get some mid range. ive never seen any information regarding comparisons with stock cams or uprated cams on an NA non-boosted engine.
  11. martin the re ground cams are only removing material which is added to the cams, so no original material is being removed, so not classed as a re grind. they grind away material which has been welded to the profile. blimey craig thats good! what turbo was he running. what did his power band look like? is that stock injectors as well? what did he do different, stock turbo conversions with low psi normally hit 320ish.
  12. As hopefully I wont be required to go over 12psi I was going to use a thicker headgasket. I know this isn't the BEST choice due to squish and det, but for only 400 bhp I didn't think I would need it. There are alot of GE engines pushing serious psi, but as Im not planning on it, I didn't think it would be required. The mid range power band is what I'm trying to improve mate.
  13. Hi all, hopefully this isn't a stupid question, appoligies if it has been asked before. Buying parts for my NA-T set up. I've always like the slight lope with high lift cams. Various options open to me for this, TTC hard welded (eeek so slate me!) or remove distributor and use GTE cam shafts. I have the funds to include cams and other components required for them into my budget, BUT... do I really need them? im using a BW s362 (batmowheel mmmm!), 525cc injectors and ultimate emanage. I'm confident with a lower compression and boost I could hit 400bhp, but I was thinking if I had high lift cams, would this increase my power band and increase my average helping it hit high figures Sooner. I'm just thinking about power increase and how to hit this magic number as soon as possible, clearly I dont want to consider it if it really won't make a difference to reaching that target. Thanks for any assistance, opinions and knowledge shared!
  14. il work on the passenger side over next few days. il size up the pod over the weekend and start drilling holes and placing a few layers of fibreglass on the weak points. have you bought your gauges yet? need to have a rough idea on the wires required to feed in the back as il need to drill holes through the pillar
  15. ive always like the R33 to be fair. and that's a nice example! packs a punch to by the look of it. if your looking to buy a supra, i would keep an eye out on here for one that you want in the state that you want it. `GOING` single is expensive, there are always good quality singles for sale that pop up. and people who know the car can rate it and give information on its history.
  16. Notice these are pics of BOTH sides which were damaged. Took me some work, but Im confident I can carry on with rest of pillars. Both have been glued together and layer of fibreglass behind to strengthen it up. used a thin layer as gets a bit tight at bottom of pillar. Damaged -> Fixed!
  17. whifbitz website states that the archs come with the small carbon fibre diffuser, did you get these when you bought your archs? are they the ones that fit on the front of the side skirts?
  18. Want for a new project. Any condition considered.
  19. lol piggy boy eh? we cud all do with loosing a few pounds mate. ive spent SH3D loads on my engine... and haven't fitted any of it! manifold, ultimate emanage, BOV, cams, geras, intercooler + piping, clutch & lightweight flywheel.... seriously too much but im not planning to sell it till ive fitted it. if its too slow then il just sell the lot after fitting... after ive cried my eyes out lol!! ive probably lost a huge sum of money. hope its worth it! wud be good to go in a nos NA. get a good tune and probably whip some stock TT's! u gonna do any transmission changes?
  20. was this an auto or 6speed? was after an auto diff
  21. your always spend money mate! even thought of going lightweight? oh scrub that idea, you said low cost!! carbon fibre supra def the way to go... if ur loaded!
