  4. No. The springs can't absorb downforce. Sure, they affect the ride height but any weight they are supporting is still transmitted to the road.
  5. UFC 68 should be good. Looking forward to Tim Silvia vs Randy Couture. TS is obviously favourite but I'd love to see RC do it. I reckon TS by a decision is the likely outcome. Rich Franklyn and Matt Hughes both on the comeback too.
  6. Almost certainly your crank pulley has sheared. Get it checked/changed ASAFP One member crashed his car when the pulley came off recently, due to total loss of power steering. Yours is probably just slipping at the moment but it could come off at any moment. Also, the pulley can do a lot of damage (rad, fan, bonnet, etc) when it comes off, depending on revs and/or luck at the time.
  7. Aerotops handle well. J-spec brakes are shit. Supra TTs can be 'chipped' to 500bhp Tuned to 280bhp NAs
  8. Not if you've lost the back end at 160mph you can't !
  9. Nice to know you NA boys acknowledge that it's not true. I bow to your experience of this matter.
  10. UK specs have 46bhp more than J-spec TTs You can't tune VVTi Supras. RHHP = RWHP UK turbos are 'stronger' than j-spec Hybrids are an upgrade Stage 3 hybrids aren't the minimum spec. All FMICs are equal. Drilled brake discs work better. The stock shock absorbers aren't 'coilovers'

    Up to 6 months, innit?
  12. I know it was an optional extra on NAs but it was standard issue on TTs, wasn't it?
  13. Was it? In all my years on here I've never heard that before. What's your source for that info?

    But it would fall off if he made it loose. .. oh, wait.... Really? Can't actually tell for sure from those pics. Mine certainly weren't and I've never seen wider ones
  15. Ooo, cheap drilled no-name disks! :bargepole:

    It's not really the look of the wheels I object to. It's that they are the same width front and rear, they weigh a ton and the finish falls off if you stare at them too long. Apart from that they're great though.

    Looks great Charlie apart from I can't believe you have those wheels. I couldn't wait to get shot of my ones.

  19. Early days, he's only had one UFC fight. I used to think Matt Hughes was unbeatable. Same thing with Arlovski He looked good but he wasn't up against a top fighter. He was a massive favourite to win anyway.
  20. Claire Bennet isn't too shabby either. I've seen all 15 currently available episodes of Heroes now.
  21. Preying on people's greed. I mean : Low mileage RS1600 Turbo engine, complete. £150 inc Delivery
