  1. I had one just like that GM, loved it. Pedal power is king on karts, no silently running over pensioners or waiting for charge times like an EV
  2. Here's one for the Highway Code lovers. http://gu.com/p/4bnyx?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other Police seek man who pushed cyclist into path of London traffic A male pedestrian who was filmed pushing a female cyclist into the path of London traffic is being sought by police. The woman, who was wearing a helmet camera that filmed the incident, asked the man not to cross the road until she had cycled past. He is heard shouting and swearing at the cyclist, who is in her early 40s, as he chased her down Sidney Street in Whitechapel, east London. As she slowed down near a junction, the man, who is believed to be in his 40s and was wearing dark clothing, approached the cyclist, called her a “mug” and shoved her to the ground. She let out a cry and sounded distressed and injured. The woman, who was upset by the assault but did not need medical treatment, moved herself and her bike to safety. She contacted police and handed over footage of the incident, which occurred on 1 May. The Met has released the video to help find the man. Anyone who can identify the man is asked to contact police on 101, quoting images 180410 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 OBVIOUSLY, shoving people into traffic is not acceptable. DQ - can a cyclist suggest a pedestrian shouldn't cross the road as they barreling through on a PB?
  3. What the actual f*ck is that??!! I think I just did a little bit of sick. DONK FTW!
  4. Lights look much better but did you put anything on them afterwards to keep the UV at bay? They'll go cloudy pretty quick in my experience without a coating.
  5. That's pretty much how I decided to go skater girl. Almost everything looks better with boobs.
  6. Popper her in when the amazonian downpours held off for a while. Just a few more jobs to do in the bay she's all done, shiny plenum and sort our the fail on the PAS tank and also the washer lid needs a splash of colour.
  7. Your local ASDA is significantly better than mine. I can't see any fatties in sports gear for one
  8. BMW drivers as a whole, you mean? I always thought they indicators were an optional extra on Beemers and people just went for a horn upgrade instead
  9. When I did a road trip north of Fort William and Inverness, I emailed Gleaner filling stations looking for Super in the highlands. They kindly replied with the following (which is now about 2 yr old info, you've been warned!) "In response to your email below I can confirm the following Gleaner Branded Filling Stations sell Super Unleaded: Fort William to Mallaig Onich Service, Onich, PH33 6RZ & Ben Nevis Services Fort William PH33 6TF Armadale to Kyle of Lochalsh Kyle Filling Station, Kyle of Lochalsh, IV40 8AG Applecross to Ullapool Lochbroom Filling Station, Ullapool, IV26 2SX Ullapool Durness to Thurso Bridgend Filling Station, Thurso, KW14 8PP Thurso to Inverness Skiach Services & Restaurant Evanton IV16 9XH Hope the above information is of help and you have a pleasant trip in the Highlands" Clearly it may not always be in stock, I accept no responsibility for anyone running out of fuel, or not taking octane booster with them!
  10. I think you mean undertake for cyclists passing vehicles

    +1 I wouldn't put wrong profile on the fronts for the sake of a week with the old ones on.
  12. I normally wait to put mods on The Shark before I post pics, but i was so excited about this lot that I just had to post 'em up box fresh. Big thanks to Ricey @ Revolve for doing the honours First up were some carbon dipped kick plates, fancied a change from my ally ones. Love the shiny carbony goodness But my favourite (and possibly controversial) piece is the engine cover in Skater Girl Well pleased with the work and no sign of a bill yet either, so even better
  13. Hand built in Britain versus Made In Japan, I'd keep the GTR just in case!
  14. I never get the comments "there are bad drivers too". Of course there are, we have threads about them all over the place too, no one puts in a bad driver thread, "don't forget there are bad airline pilots too". There's bad pedestrians, bad unicyclists, bad bikers, bad horse riders, bad passengers. In fact in almost every method of movement there are bad
  15. http://m.blackpoolgazette.co.uk/news/crime/danger-cyclist-guilty-of-hitting-girl-3-on-path-1-7387745 £839 in fines and costs Would the punishment be the same for driving on a pavement and doing the same?
  16. A cooling/slam panel? Not seen any stainless ones, there's plenty of carbon out there and ally, Steve @ Redline does one in ally. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/73479-redline-styling-350z-cooling-plate-03-06-special-offer-15-off/ Fleabay maybe if you have your heart on stainless?
  17. They're way less abusive with a snapped broom handle jammed in the front spokes.
  18. Pictures are perfect, we love big pics
  19. Fantastic pics There's just something magical about Spitfire design I believe they did it to halt the rise of mindless right wing lunatics, hell bent on domination and oppression of other people, for no reason other than them being of a different country, race or religion. Well yes and thank god they did. But I'm sure the individual at the time fought for Britain and what it meant to be British. If they'd have known how it'd turn out 75 years down the line I doubt they'd have been as solid in their convictions. They were a bit a mongrel bunch themselves - Poles, Australians, South Africans, Kiwis, Canadians, Czechs, French, Belgian, Irish etc I don't think nationality plays a part, it was about doing what was right in the face of what was obviously so wrong.

  21. Reading on here, the throttle body clean on the DE is no big drama but the HR has the potential to make the ECU go bananas. MAF is delicate, copy what someone else on here has done before without breaking it . I'd personally disconnect the battery and pump the brakes a few times before touching any of it, but some people like to live more dangerously. There's a load of threads on this, copy this into google and fill your boots - site:350z-uk.com clean throttle body DISCLAIMER - you breaking anything is nothing to do with me, for info only here!
  22. Just been to Durham and back, 280 miles. 160m cross country A-roads and 120m legal motorway speeds - 28mpg according to the machine. More than enough, given the fun that was had on the A road sections. Worth 13 fewer MPG any day
