  1. Oh quite a while to go yet then. I thought Michel was originally talking about doing it this month. Anyway good luck mate. You're gonna love it.
  2. He didn't really do any of that it's a copied story

    Im being thick

    Go to your Edit Garage page: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/vbpgedit.php?do=editgallery&u=8989&g=1171 Ten click on the Browse button next to where it says "Select a Photo File"
  4. Oh well, wrong again: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095016/trivia
  5. iirc the bad guys in Die Hard weren't given an exact nationality, for fear of upsetting the Jerry audience probably.
  6. What is the supposed problem with the stock fuel rail and stock FPR exactly? (not that I have the stock FPR (or pulsation damper) but would be quite happy to have them) At least the stock rail is a known good quality item and won't piss fuel all over the place like some of the so called 'upgraded' fuel rails. (Ask Tannhäuser and JamieP about that) If the stock rail isn't restricting the fuel flow then why change it? Seems to me that there's way too much changing stuff for the sake of it when the stock item is plenty good enough - and often better quality than the aftermarket alternative.

    Valentine's Idea

    It's funny cos it's true.
  8. Thing is, the other guy's insurance company cannot write off your car, only your own ins co can do that. If the damage was the other guys fault you can insist that they pay you the amount you want or that they put the car right. This exact thing happened to FoodFreak and it cost, iirc, well over 15k to have his car repaired - because he just wouldn't let them pay him off for the car. In the end the car was repaired as good as new.
  9. Any pics of this kit fitted to a car? Other than the rear shot posted above.
  10. According to the PHR website my turbo is "capable of 520 RWHP at 18 psi utilizing the factory fuel system and electronics, or 630+ RWHP at 29 psi using the PHR Stage 2 Fuel System upgrade and MAP ECU" Even allowing for the merkin's downhil dynos, I guess it's possible to get 500rwhp with my car's 800cc injectors and Motec. But at 1.4 bar (20psi) I'm not getting anywhere near the 520rwhp they're claiming for a car with stock 550 injectors and ECU at 18psi
  11. So what is it you want? Just the TFAFT Supra with different gfx and in a different colour? Do you not think the Bomex bumper, FATF graphics and mechano rear wings are rather old hat nowadays? It's all been done so many times before and IMO didn't look that good in the first place.
  12. It was the automatic substitutions that did it. When I got the results from the website my subs had already been done, I assumed they had done everyone's at the same time.
  13. Somehow Mark's team gained 6 points after I thought that the table was complete for the week. Those 6 points saw him over take Charlotte
  14. It's his old car that Razza has. I have Whifbitz HIDs in my blue car. They seem OK so far
  15. 619 Nm isn't huge for a single turbo really Mike. It's only running low boost at the moment. My small single made 670Nm at 1.4bar and I'm sure Jamie's will beat that when it's mapped for more boost.
  16. Oh the wastegate, of course. I thought it was coming out of the turbo to exhaust joint
  17. Are you not concerned about the flames at the end of each power run?
  18. Bad mothers? How very Ali G
  19. I've one of those and it's excellent. Incidentally, I used it with an XDA II without any problems at all, so don't let that you off.

    head lights

    Mate, don't bother. It's a nightmare job and after you've got them back together you'll probably find that they they keep steaming up because you couldn't seal them properly. Well, that what happened when I tried to do it. New UK spec headlights are about £128 each or get GZAeroJon to refurb your old ones properly. He does it for a very reasonable price. At least that way your sunday roasts won't taste like melted plastic for the next three months.

    This is very sad

    No. I noticed it too. And see post 19
