  1. Oh, and obviously some of those cap type thingees now paul.
  2. And it was all going so well till then.
  3. And the other bits. Just need a replacement handbrake, a s/wheel, and if possible an autoshift lever. May have decided on the handbrake. Others, Im open to suggestions or recommendations. Oh, and some mats
  4. Dropped my car off at Envy for some work before I went on me hols and picked it up when I got back. Basically had the front bumper resprayed, UK headlights fitted, Spots fitted, and clear side indicators. Also got the dash resprayed. Pretty happy with the results. Note that the first pick was after michaelG had given it a once over.
  5. Soz, delete as you feel nec. And I'll take ten of the cane please.
  6. 30 nicker paypal payment sent mate.
  7. Can I have 30 of these please mate? Not the tinfoil type though.
  8. Ooooh.... where do we put our first donation
  9. Not sure I should put it up. Contains some "very rude" adult gifs. Not sure the mods would like it.

    Oops!!

    Well, I was just going out for some food, and reversed straight back into another car. Totally my fault, too busy looking at new front spots for the first time in the dark. No damage to my Supe though thankfully. Thought I'd just pushed the other cars wing in a bit but just talked to the owners and they cant open the drivers door more than about a foot. Great!! Have asked them to get a price and deal with it without the insurance. Bollks!!
  13. Hi Far, tried that "insert hyperlink" with the URL but cant change it to read "picture" and still open it when clicked on. And just inserting the URL doesnt really work. Also, adding an attachment, just has the picture opened when the post is looked at, again, defeating the object.
  14. Speaking of animated Gifs, my mate gave me a great adult gif site that we put onto our phones. Then in the pub last night bluetoothed them to a load of strangers (women) anonymously. Funny as fk watching them react. Nothing too bad was sent but the site has some rather hardcore stuff. Is very childish....but was funny at the time.
  15. Think the one in front of the church looks boss. Bit of a devil in front of the chuch thing going on there with the black and a front reg plate with the 666 would have been perfect.
  16. He He he. One question though....how do you change the url to just read "picture". I'd like to post it somewhere else but link doesnt work with cut and paste
  17. Thanks for the comments. I dont suppose theres any Glasgow/Edinburgh based owners that have J Spec OR UK suspension fitted is there, as I'm sure mine cant be right. Unfortunately I have nothing to compare it to. Would be good to meet up with someone to see what theirs is like in comparison. Edit: Tyre sizes are: F 235/40, R 265/35 18" Cheers Billy
  18. Hi, I'm currently lookig into changing my stock (I think) Jap suspension over to UK suspension, and am interested in finding out the opinion of anyone who's had it done, before I lay out all the cash. My ride at the moment is on the verge of bone shattering with cats eyes and any minor road imperfection making me feel like I've fell down the stairs. passengers are actually shocked at how bad the bumping (and the noise of it) is. I've got a price for replacement IK shocks and springs, but if anyone has tried the changeover and give me their impressions it would be appreciated. I'm not looking for a racing set up as the only time I really give it some is on the Mways. Or is there a better aftermarket solution that people recommend for a comfortable ride? Cheers Billy
  19. The A77 just got even more unpleasant.... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/4681507.stm
  20. Any idea why it failed Bill? If it could be organised and implemented, with decent publicity, then I think it has a fair chance.
  21. try Google earth...small download and not too bad at all
  22. I think the idea of everyone boycotting all petrol stations is a no goer, as at the end of the day we will have to refuel at some time. And they know this. A much better idea, IMO, is to target specific brands. ie, if everybody stopped getting petrol from say BP, making sure they knew the reason was because of the pricing, then it is bound to hit them hard. Surely they would then have to consider lowering their prices to make it a more attractive proposition to us. If the prices do come down, then a boycott of say, Shell, could be done. At the same time getting fuel from the now lower price of BP. And doing this will force competition between them. Can you imagine the impact a total boycott of a sole distributor would have? I've no idea how feasible it would be, or wether the goverment would bail them out, but the profits these companies are making DAILY are not to be sniffed at. Imagine a week/months loss of profit. Viva la revolution!!! On a side note the boycott of the S*n newspaper within Liverpool has had a huge effect on its profits. From selling 200 - 250,000 papers daily, it is down to less than 50,000. And thats been going on for 16 years. Imagine that on a nationwide scale.
  23. What would the figures be for a full decat and a single....... on a NA? Is it really worth doing? As I would be tempted if I could get a bit more acceleration/response. Oh, and how do you carry it out? Ive had a look for some simple diagrams (I can only follow basic block ones really) but cant find any. If anyone could knock up a sort of before and after diagra, for a full, single, and just a standard after market exhaust that would be cool. Mates got a set of ramps and I feel the need to actually do something myself on the car. Too many brave pills maybe...but hey...its only an exhaust.
