  1. Hope you have a big book Anything is better than nothing and that's what I've been getting recently... Nothing. In the words of Eminem... "All my life I was very deprived I ain't had a woman in years, and my palms are too hairy to hide"
  2. I'd write down everything that I could learn about women, how they think, why they do stuff etc. so that when I am a man again, I could understand them more.
  3. Totally agree with you! I've hunted high and low for super unleaded, and found it luckily. But driving like a granny ain't fun!
  4. Glad you got it sorted.... they have to thrash my old Toyota every year to get it through the MOT. Interesting price for the OEM Cats They go for very modest amounts 2nd hand on Ebay. Damn it! When I got my Berks fitted at Abbey a few weeks ago, they asked me if I wanted the stock cats anymore and I said I had no need for them! Could have sold them on!
  5. Why? So after all that, you have non plain ones too! Lol.
  6. They just add 'feel' to the brakes, before I got them fitted I found the brake a bit vague and spongy really.... It won't matter what colour you get really, because unless you intend to clean them every week, they all end up looking the same....dirty Well I do tend to clean my car twice a week. And do you tend to jack up the car twice a week to take the wheels off and clean behind the caliper where the lines sit? That's where they go? Lol. Ok so I won't get round to clean them ever.

  8. Good point, but then you could also argue it's actually a £30K car so parts should be looked at in that aspect. My trouble is that I see so many people pouring £5K+ into the car to make it heavier and slower by adding all the pretty bits, and that makes me die a little inside You can't really see them unless you take the wheels off, mine are the standard silver I didn't know they did different colours They do make a nice difference to the feel of the brakes ^^^This. Get the plain ones. Plain ones and coloured ones I asssume perform the same with these as it is only asthetics. So does it really add any weight? Just seems nice to get gold ones to match. Costs the same. I'm not a fan of putting things on the car unless it improves performance.
  9. now i need to get some hel brake lines. anybody got any idea which colour matches the gold calipers best?
  10. Already purchased. 2 piece dba discs and ferodo ds2500 pads.
  11. thinking about 2 piece dba with ds2500 pads. just waiting to hear back from CS about if the old hat will be compatible with the new t3 series rotors. so i can just buy them and save myself some cash in the future.
  12. PF = Performance Friction right? Where could I find them?
  13. So I take it that gold ones are not the same spec as the black ones? Thought it might be the same compound but just a different colour. Performance is my main goal, but more fast road with the rare use on track. Never been on a track day but looking to go on one this summer.
  14. Hi Guys, So my brakes have been squeeking recently. Popped into Kwik-Fit this morning to get them checked out. Need new front discs. So will have to get new front pads too. Just wondering if people could help me with the following questions... 1) If I upgrade the front to DBA + Ferodo DS2500s, will it have an adverse effect on my car if I left the rears as standard? Got quite a bit left on them. 2) Which DBA discs to get? Seen on cougarstore some gold ones. Are they same spec as the black ones and also does anyone have a pic of these on their car? 3)How much better would the 2-piece be over the 1 piece? not sure if I can justify the extra 300 without good reason. Thanx peeps!
  15. It's just stupid. Every other petrol company are pumping out all their different lines, yet Shell who advertise so much about their superior Ferrari supported and enhanced V-Power, is being held back! Losing custom guys! Get that V-Power out to the garages now!!!
  16. Shell V-Power is still as rare as rocking horse sh.. WTF???
  17. Much appreciated guys. Have a good weekend!
  18. I hesitate to ask 'HOW?' Should we even go down this road? Am I just being naive? And surely no one is that desperate? 12 volt power outlet? Ignition barrel
  19. Tried and failed. You got problems then mate..... God yeah! Lol.
  20. Which ones have you got? Aluminium or Black coated? Is it still the same price as in the original post?
