  1. Hopefully soon to be 11.
  2. Simon - what size is your compressor cover? Is it 4" intake, 3" out and 0.70A/R?
  3. Has anybody ever added additional silencers/mufflers to either: - 2nd decat pipe - Blitz Nur Spec R I had a quick look underneath yesterday but didn't come to any earth shattering conclusions. Has anybody headed down this route with ether of these exhaust pieces? I'd like to get the volume down to just under "baffle in" levels when the baffle is actually out. The main concern is idle volume and low speed "suburban driving" at 7am to get to the motorway, I'm not too fussed on the volume at WOT. Cheers Dan
  4. Yes please - I'd have to chop the bend off anyway but it would give me an idea which one it actually is. Also, would you let me know what A/R it is - I think it should be 0.68 or 0.69 whereas the 3" outlet version is a 0.70
  5. It might be yes. Is it a 2.5" compressor outlet version? Anyone else got anything different?
  6. If this child has a baby at 15 (by a 13 year old boy), would you say it had been given "enough care attention love and protection to be safe"? Oh yeah - to reply to your point.......I think "all the care it needs" is pretty close (if not the same as) "enough care attention love and protection to be safe".
  7. Arguably the case with every single aftermarket modification available in the world.
  8. The so called wider family will have no doubt contributed to the girls's attitude, education and morals that led her to get pregnant by a 13 year old in the first place. To suggest the wider family will lavish this new born child with all the care it needs is pure lunacy. On this general subject...... Social Services will do everything they can to keep the child with its natural parents....that will include a full assessment of the wider family. That is what they are forced to do, it may not be what they want to do, it may not be what they believe is right but they are forced to do that by the courts unless they can prove the child is in some form of dangerous/neglectful environment. The social worker invloved will be forced to work with other organisations such as the NHS, occupational health, education etc etc to do everything they can to give the parents all the oppurtunity they need to demonstrate they can act as "adequate" parents. The social worker may believe from the outset that this is a terrible situation but they will ultimately be subject to cross examination from the parent's (legal aid funded) barrister in court if they try to implement some sort of removal/adoption/fostering strategy. There are some exceptions like emergency removals (potentially only short term) but they will eventually come under the same legal scrutiny anyway. Sh!t system if you ask me.
  9. Does anyone have a compressor housing for sale to suit a Precision/BL T67? Ideally I'm looking for an "H" cover which is 4" intake and 3" outlet but would probably settle for a regular 4" inlet and 2.5" outlet as per most people's on here. Anybody got anything at all? Cheers Dan
  10. I wasn't suggesting these sizes chaps......just showing Jamie how daft they looked. Nic can you pm me some details on the Advan RS wheels (dark colour options, can I have 17 rear and 18 front, what offsets are available, price etc) Cheers Dan
  11. 18 x 9 fronts with a 10 offset, rears are 18 x 10 with a 22 offset.
  12. They look pretty good, do you happen to know who sells them or any info on potential offsets and spigot hole sizes that are available?
  13. Does anyone know of any wheels that are similar to this one? I'm looking to piece together a set of 17 x 9.5 (or up to 10" wide) for the rear and 18 x 8 (or up to 9" wide) for the front but need some input on wheel makes/models that are similar to these ones. I don't mind if they are silver but would prefer black as that would save me spraying them!
  14. That doesn't mean that much would have happened though. They would have probably assed the maternal and paternal grandparents' situation and if the relevant support seemed to be there then there's a good chance there'd be no major action. I haven't read the whole thing so don't know exactly what was said or what the current situation is. Social Services will now be involved until the boy is at least 16. They will then only be directly involved if there is a question of the baby's wellbeing/care/life.......as things stand right now, both the boy and the baby will be "cases". I'm not sure if their age (12 or over) means that the respective parents would have to press the charges......not simply an automatic case as with a
  15. I'd like the triangular pieces that go over the strut tops in the boot please.

  17. I'll be needing about 18sq.m of some sort of flooring (not sure what yet but definitely not carpet) for a run through from a hallway to a kitchen/dining room. I take it Gloucestershire is way too far for a job that small?
  18. Glad to see you back on the board Nic.
  19. Potentially cheaper wheels and tyres as well which is always nice
  20. http://www.tunerzine.com/articles/86/images/c.jpg Almost impossible to tell the difference. (18x10 on the front is getting pretty wide though )
  21. You may pick up some power from running forged pistons due to reduced piston distrortion and the subsequent reduced blowby but I have no numbers to quantify that.
  22. Does anyone here run a different diameter wheel front to back? I'm wondering (for example) about an 18" rim on the front to make room for large discs and then a 17" on the rear to allow for a higher profile sidewall for improved traction. Just a thought....anyone doing anything similar? Cheers Dan
  23. Will you fit them to the Supe or do you have something else in line?
