  1. If the mod were to be published for all to see once you made back your R&D costs, if anything it would boost your reputation. What's not fair about realising the info in regards to those who have paid already? If they were called investors to a project, then it makes it sound different, but still means the same. It cannot hurt your reputation to go public now and pay a traders fee, if anything it will make you and your bro a more reliable source for mods and people will be more willing to "invest" into future ideas you and your bro may come up with Just my thoughts
  2. Good place to start is to find out what parts are needed. Personally not a fan of air(suspension) because it would prolly ruin the handling of the car, plus you have to plan for where to put the aircompressor and airlines. You would most likely be looking at coilovers rather than just lowering springs. Might need camber arms replaced so camber can be adjusted more to your liking. Unless you know how to roll arches, that will most likely be a bodyshop job Also consider that you may lose some ride comfort, as the car sits lower it will have less clearance to "bounce" thus suspension will be stiffer to counteract and with bigger wheels come lower profile tyres, which will improve handling a little due to less sidewall flex, but at the same time feel a little harder. So, all in all if you wanted to get this all done you would need to visit a bodyshop and a workshop. So consider labour and parts and prolly little return from a couple of grand.
  3. So we are not supposed to press the japanese flag? Why?
  4. Nice to see some serious thought going into this, I'm impressed! Now, due to the extreme height and windresistance, it would eventually become more aerodynamic during it's descent. Like when a parachutist goes from spread-eagle to all limbs to the body and speeds up. So surely the poo would speed up. Also, the gas build up that gives the poo the initial acceleration should be taken into account. There must be a difference between just letting it drop as opposed to it being fired out.
  5. Try places like Halfrauds, especially when new models are about to come out. Got my Pioneer F900BT for £350 (ex-demo, new price £900) Wasn't too bothered about it being ex-demo, cos how many people actually end up playing around with the more expensive units on display? Not many cos they don't want to break something they may not be able to afford.
  6. voted for Nice Area & Garage Also, the area should have signs reading "You are now entering a Chav Free Zone" Requirements for these CFZ's are - No chavy cars - No youths wearing burberry baseball caps - No youths walking around with the hoodies up - No mothers under the age of 21 - No gathering of youths in groups of 5 or more on street corners - No playing of "duff duff" music at maximum volume with windows down whilst driving at 4.7 mph - Any combination of the above The CFZ scheme is currently under review with selected countys in the UK, with plans to have them implemented by early 2015.
  7. I'm suprised that nobody has asked this yet, but what happens if the night before climbing the tower you had a curry? How much of a crater would an average sized human poo make after falling such a height? I need answers to those questions dammit
  8. Nah, best way is to keep good economy in the Zed is to let it roll downhill in neutral, engine off and you making "vroom vroom" noises
  9. Maybe you could contact Rays Engineering direct, and propse to them that seeing that the value of one wheel is officially stated to be at least £1400, whether they could accept two brand new wheels in exchange for a set of, say Volk GTF in 19", as they retail around the £3000 mark, that way you could get a set of brand new Volks for an outlay of £200 bargain! Oh, but that only works in the world based on extreme optimism and where main dealer prices are the only prices in existance.
  10. Too bad you don't live round my part of the country, we got a BOC Gas distribution depot here and a local Nitrous Installer that does refills cheap
  11. Googled "Nitrous Oxide Wholesalers or distributors" for Wales?
  12. use lube to prevent blisters and chafing
  13. I might possibly go nuts and buy like 10ft lengths of these and surround the windows for christmas time, lol
  14. Remember GORF in the VIC 20?
  15. I know what you mean mate, but in the end it is I that has to like it really
  16. I could use them under the rear strut, I could use them in the head lights, I could use them to light the footwells, I could use them in the reflectors, I could buy more and light up the wheel arches, I could use them to show light from under the bonnet vents.....so many possibilities, lol
  17. Not great to be honest... It's fine for me as it's a drift car but one side sits about 10mm too high so doesnt line up with the roof. The sides don't sit low enough so there is a rather large gap Didn't nurrish have the same problem when he had the carbon hatch? If I recall, he removed the boot struts altogether due to the CF hatch weighing less than the OEM hatch
  18. How about chroming the car and then a layer of semi-transparent black over that?
  19. Play Car Town on Facebook. Dependent on office surface and co-workers, get yourself a lil RC drift car and set up a course.
  20. Just gotta figure out what to do with them...
  21. It was called "Lula" Remember finding the diamond ring in the sink in LSL, haha
  22. the rears are the easiest, the fronts require removal of the shocks. You'll need spring clamps, a jack, set of sockets and spanners and elbow grease
