    Half Cut

    Thanks Alan. ...and perhaps if he'd posted it IN THE RIGHT FUCKING FORUM people would have guessed he was looking for Supra parts.

    Half Cut

    Yes that's right, I don't know what a half cut is. What does 'ud' mean? Sorry, I must brush up on my chav-speak before coming on here again in the evening.
  3. Even if that were true (which it isn't) you really don't want to be running your injectors at anywhere near 100% duty cycle if you can help it. Besides which, there's no point running stock Supra turbos at 1.5bar as they're way past their peak efficiency at that kind of pressure - they're just making lots of heat and not giving you any more power than they would at 1.2 - 1.25 bar, probably less. Not unless you also want the lagtastic UK turbos too. Just BPU your j-car to 1.2 bar and forget it, enjoy the extra torque and faster spool, and be happy. You won't regret it.

    Half Cut

    What are you on about? What is a "Front Half Cut Of A Supra" or a "Back Cut To"? and turn your CAPS LOCK off.
  5. On the imdb forum there are posts like So dull i thought my head would explode! Seems most folks are not impressed with the twist/ending either
  6. BBC News24 are reporting that Hammond's condition has been downgraded from Critical to Stable So it looks like he's gonna be alright.
  7. The further the distance from the exchange to your house the poorer the line quality will be. If the line has a certain amount of 'noise' you won't be able to get high-speed ADSL. (When I say noise, the quality of the voice signal is irrelevant, if the digital part of the line is poor you're screwed) afaik All ADSL in the UK is using BT's lines and exchanges. The only way to get higher speed broadband is to get cable, like NTL or TeleWest. I don't know if SkyBroadband is ADSL or Cable. Think yourself lucky, I can't get more than 1mb ADSL here!

    Xabi Alonso!

    I'm just watching the highlights on SS2 because I heard it's a wondergoal. Where did you see it?

    TV Advice please

    Hmmm. I've got a 37" JVC LCD TV that I got from Gamer. I paid like 900 for it but he paid about £1700 for it I think. I've got to say I'm not actually very impressed with it. The picture quality is poor on scenes with movement, or watching the footy. The picture kind of smears. The model I have actually got rave reviews when it first came out earlier this year but like I said, it's not 'all that'
  10. I hate the way some people try to big up their cars on eBay. There's so much bullshit in that eBay listing I dunno where to start. Limited Edition? No such thing. Those wheels aren't Toyota ones, they never came with the car - they're aftermarket ones. Leather dash? Rubbish, it's vinyl. I bet the rear seats are too. sought after air conditioning? It's standard equipment on every mkiv Supra ever made. Only 540 GZ's made? Only 540 made the same month as his maybe.
  11. I wouldn't. 90% of the CF/GRP bonnets I've seen fit like a brick in a bowler hat and/or flex like the ace of spades at high speeds. It's a small single, innit? About the same as mine.
  12. You seem keen to admit fault. Will your insurance company be OK about that? I've been told that they don't like it.

    Attention Mods

    Works fine here. Edit: Tell a lie, it's broken for me too! - Sorry Col ( @myself)
  14. I got a rather nice tax rebate for slightly over three grand last week!
  15. give over He said don't quote him!
  16. I give up, what is it? (I hope you aren't gonna say Kate)
  17. Nope. It's Frank You can see it on his Police id here http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9e/Columbo-Signature.jpg/250px-Columbo-Signature.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbo#First_name
  18. I also love Colombo. Anyone know his first name? Talking of 70s detective shows, I wonder why they never show repeats of Macmillan and Wife.
  19. You ripped out your old kitchen before the new one had been delivered and checked? Blimey you're brave! Did you see that thing about B&Q kitchens on BBC1's Watchdog programme a while back? There was some right balls-ups on there. As it happens, I used to sell kitchens for B&Q (back in the 1990s) and also worked at their head office until Sept last year. To get your complaint taken seriously you'll probably need to get solicitor involved. Get the names of everyone involved, just saying "somebody at the store said you'll compensate me" may well be ignored without supporting evidence. If you play it right you could end up with a free kitchen. Good luck.
  20. When was that? I don't remember it.
  21. Understandable in the circumstances
  22. Ah yes, 1 - of course! thanks Col
