  1. Nah, not reffering to the matter of active or not, just that the replys that were posted on the first page seemed to convey an attitude of "Us vs. Them", which made me sigh and think of how silly it all seems. I understand that you guys are looking to keep the site running, which is commendable. I don't know how many actually use the "Donate" button, but it might be worth mentioning from time to time that it exists and that any contribution no matter how small or big helps the community a great deal. It's easy to let personal emotion take hold, but as mods and admins it's sometimes more beneficial to put personal feelings aside and think of the community as a whole. I've experienced this kind of thing first hand and understand how forum splits can turn out. On my iPhone at work btw and this took ages to type... *phew*
  2. At least I'm getting mature replies from Rob and Martin, thank you. We are all individuals in the end and as such we'd like the freedom to choose without being given the evil eye. Sorry if I don't conform to a "Flags-In-The-Ground" attitude.
  3. I've done it so much, I think that's why the inners on the front are showing signs of rust...
  4. And take them bungs out while your at it......ya big sissy
  5. Might save on import tax, but are you willing to pay the excess baggage charge? Prolly be cheaper to pay the tax....
  6. Well with it being an american product, you'd expect it to be cheaper in the US...add all the so called taxes and crap the UK gov'ment put on top and there you have the rip off price...
  7. If you mean this one, then it looks like a Nismo front bumper
  8. I don't think I'll go for a full Dixcel setup, as I don't track the car at all, so going Dixcel may be overkill for day to day usage Dixon commented that the Goodridge lines use steel fittings that will corrode over time, whereas the HEL ones use stainless fittings that won't. He's the pro, not me, so I can only go by what Dixon says and I suppose he should know his stuff.
  9. Quite awhile ago, I bought a set of HEL Lines from CS, but never got around to have them fitted. On Saturday (8th Aug 2009), SilentKK8 had a P3 service booked in at DMS Racing and I went along to check them out. The P3 was done and Raymond (SilentKK8) was pleased with the result. I had asked Dixon whether they were busy today and if it wasn't too cheeky to ask to have my lines fitted. Sure enough Dixon was more than happy to help, as long as there wasn't any problems during Rays service. On the lift Old OEM lines Old OEM lines in their new home....the bin New HEL lines in place HEL didn't supply enough brackets But never fear Extra brackets in place I am well pleased with the extra sharpness my brakes now have and wonder why I didn't fit them sooner. Did notice that the insides of my front discs a wearing and need replacement soon, so watch this space. Finally thanks to Dixon and his crew, Dixon is the friendliest guy you'll meet. So much so, that after I got home and thought about it, he reminded me of Han in F&F:Tokyo Drift, just super chilled and relaxed.
  10. Did you update any Firewall software on the laptop, may be an issue. Was the access password changed recently? Was there someone parked outside your house illegally using your wireless network perhaps?
  11. If you can, replace the BT HomeHub with a better router. Failing that, unplug from mains from time to time, if it's on permanently, then it does tend to get warm.
  12. Perhaps all the detailers on this forum are currently outside Jays house, jumping up and down shouting "ME! ME! ME! ME! ME! ME! ME! ME! ME! ME!"
  13. Yes, but remeber that's the silly american date, which reads November 10th 2009 FFUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was gonna book it off too - i thought it was the week after my birthday. Crap.
  14. Yes, but remeber that's the silly american date, which reads November 10th 2009
  15. Looked at the description on NWS Motor website: hmmmmm.....
  16. It is hard to tell, because different people have different levels of "clean". If the OP is happy with the results, then fine, but that does not stop us and the pro detailers on here from giving advice and opinions. Personally, I think £45 is cheap, but then again, we don't know what was used and what methods were employed. It might be worth checking for swirls and the like. Just hope it wasn't the girls and guys off the recent Apprentice
  17. Well it must be the MI6 edition with the ejector seat.....right?
  18. About 6:30am, after a night shift
  19. You could have done the Jeremy Clackson thing and just superglued a 5p to where the weight went mising Glad you got it sorted man
  20. Does that mean theat Zedrush needs to change his name?
  21. Doesn't need spacers, but lowering might be good
  22. Time attack or head to head?
  23. Common as muck round my way.....lol you got : Dunker (lives down the road and to the left from me...) SilentKK8 Sally and some two or more I see driving about. Saw a silver/gunmetal Gallardo yesterday tho, but they are becoming more common too, makes that two Gallardos in Ipswich, that one and a powder baby blue one.
  24. Well, there is a feature on the cam, that allows me to program certain things, like ISO and shizzle I don't understand, lol
  25. If you get a chance, then visit an "Up Garage" store. These people specialize in second hand parts, which are usually reconditioned before selling them on. Some pics I got off the internet...
