  1. LOST IN THE DARNDEST PLACES: An elderly lady called 999 on her mobile phone to report that her car has been broken into. She is hysterical as she explains her situation: "They've stolen the stereo, the steering wheel, the brake pedal and even the accelerator!" she cried. The dispatcher said, "Stay calm. An officer is on the way." A few minutes later, the officer radios in. "Disregard." He says. "She got in the back-seat by mistake." ________________________________________________________________________ FAMILY Three sisters, ages 92, 94 and 96, live in a house together. One night the 96-year-old draws a bath. She puts her foot in and pauses. She yells to the other sisters, "Was I getting in or out of the bath?" The 94-year-old yells back, "I don't know. I'll come up and see." She starts up the stairs and pauses "Was I going up the stairs or down?" The 92-year-old is sitting at the kitchen table having tea listening to her sisters. She shakes her head and says, "I sure hope I never get that forgetful, knock on wood." She then yells, "I'll come up and help both of you as soon as I see who's at the door." ________________________________________________________________________ "I CAN HEAR JUST FINE!" Three retirees, each with a hearing loss, were playing golf one fine March day. One remarked to the other, "Windy, isn't it?" "No," the second man replied, "it's Thursday." And the third man chimed in, "So am I. Let's have a beer" _______________________________________________________________________ LITTLE LADY: A little old lady was running up and down the halls in a nursing home. As she walked, she would flip up the hem of her nightgown and say "Supersex." She walked up to an elderly man in a wheelchair. Flipping her gown at him, she said, "Supersex." He sat thinking for a moment or two and finally answered, "I'll take the soup." _______________________________________________________________________ DRIVING Two elderly women were out driving in a large car - both could barely see over the dashboard. As they were cruising along, they came to a junction. The traffic light was red, but they just went on through. The woman in the passenger seat thought to herself "I must be losing it. I could have sworn we just went through a red light." After a few more minutes, they came to some more traffic lights and they were red again. Again, they went right through. The woman in the passenger seat was almost sure that the light had been red but was really concerned that she was losing it. She was getting nervous. They arrived at the next set of lights, which sure enough were also red and they went on through. So, she turned to her friend and said, "Mildred, did you know that we just ran through three red lights in a row? You could have killed us both!" Mildred turned to her and said, "Oh, crap, am I driving ?"
  2. Yeah but no but . . . IT WAS TWENTY QUID!
  3. Yep One of the Phoenix boys was saying how he could eat the hottest curry on the menu. So we had a little wager. After he'd ordered I made an excuse about going to the bog but actually went and had a word with the waiter and bribed him to make the curry rather spicier than our friend was expecting. The poor guy was sweating like a pig after a few minutes eating. He made a good attempt at it to be fair but he left about half of it.
  4. I made £20 profit at the last TOTB curry night

    Yawns...

    So what happens with afternoon inner ear pressure? I get that all the time! No, it's vomiting.
  6. Different front wings Different seats. Different wiper stalk.
  7. Not that you'll ever get anywhere near the figures they quote
  8. "I don't do drugs and I'm not on Crack" What does he think Crack is exactly?
  9. Shell & Sea = Chelsea? (cutlasses=blades?) Sheff Utd Fire & 'LEY' = Burnley
  10. Yeah I did a quick search too but didn't find anything conclusive. Your thing about the frame code makes sense. I was only asking because I'd never heard it before. Not that I know owt about Skylines - ugly things 'till lunchtime most days! You still in Japan?
  11. I had a couple of Choppers but I kept breaking the welds at the rear of the two horizontal frame sections (not sure the correct term). It must've been a design weakness, I wasn't fat in those days. I presume I'm not the only person to have nearly castrated himself on that amazingly badly positioned gear shift lever?
  12. A failed Crank Pos Sensor would throw a code, surely? I've probably got a spare if you can't get one locally. Let me know an address and I'll stick it in the post if you like
  13. Oh I see, like 'JZA80' for the MkIV Supra?
  14. I drive my other half's FreeLander more than my own cars but my own car is my blue '00 Supe which I mostly drive. I also have a '93 Auto TT Supe and a FireBlade both of which I rarely use. My dole money barely covers my insurance
  15. Hi Nick What does BNR mean?
  16. I like the skirts but the spats don't look right to me. They're too small. It would be better if they were more like the OEM ones. IMO the Ridox bumper looks good on my car but I saw one on a silver Supe (without the CF bottom bit, all silver) and didn't like it.

    Radiators

    I'm 95% sure a TT rad will fit an NA. I have a facelift TT auto rad in my 93 Auto RZ. It went in OK but the shroud didn't fit quite right (One bolt hole difference) Also the elec fan arrangement is different and the connectors didn't match so I just left the elec fans disconnected. Edit: No that's wrong - gimme a min to re-write it. Edit II: OK, IIRC the pre-facelift shroud is slightly different but seems sturdy enough with the one bolt missing. After a bit of trial and error I decided to use the old 93 shroud with the 98 Rad so that I could have working elec fans. Otherwise I'd have had a shroud that fitted but fans that didn't work. n.b. (by 'shroud' I'm talking about the plastic bit on the back of the rad that holds the elec fans)
  18. No, it's still rubbish. And on Tip VVTi Supras it's an utter pain in the arse.

  20. It's because they were designed as wrong hand drive cars and the pedals, steering column, etc can't be located in quite the correct position when making a right hand drive version. We have similar problems when fitted single turbo kits that were designed for yank Supras to our RHD Supes.
  21. You haven't changed your oil for the last 8000 miles? Blimey you're brave.
