  1. When your wrong in the head, gun, knife, bomb, car etc it makes no difference, if you want to kill someone your going to kill someone imho!
  2. Did you have to clip his eyelids open?
  3. I thought you professed not to like anything but std?
  4. A mate of mine got a Land Rover Defender Td5, but a commercial variant, basically has plastic panels which are screwed in over the rear windows, door card off and they are gone and he pays realtively nothing tax wise because its classed as commercial.
  5. Mary is the one, never had much luck with Sky.
  6. Managed to stick with my current insurer, REIS, £370 all mods declared inc 5 track days.
  7. I would have thought this would tell you enough: to my auction buy 100% original bumper company s-tuning. this is the only product the company s-tuning (registered design) Please watch out for other cheap imitations that are made of cheap materials and do not fit in the car
  8. The yen isnt too bad at the moment, 188, when we had the import auctions at the docks it was around that + or - 10. I still am in contact with the guys who ran it and they still import (based in Ireland), if you want their details let me know. Grundy is right though, unless you want something very specific, you might as well buy over here imho.
  9. Pasiley freight do a std price for a bumper, i have never had any issues with them although some have, hope that helps.
  10. Veilside Chargespeed Ings Fabulous Top Secret etc http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/32517-full-bodykit-and-spoiler-list/ Fill your boots with the above, plenty of suggestions, but whether they achieve what you want is a different story, without fitting and trying as you found out, there is no way of knowing
  11. Very, start at the top and prize off, they are just held in with retaining clips.
  12. The answers above, why bump?
  13. I run 19's for the road and cant say I have noticed any acceleration issues, but do notice the weight with steering feel, but cant say I am that bothered for road use, but always use light 18's on track.
  14. It doesnt sound a lot, but 6lbs on unsprung weight is a big increase, rough guide is x 7 or 8 lbs anywhere else on the car, imagine adding near on 200 lbs to the car, or a 14 stone passenger.
  15. Jetpilot

    Y pipe

    As above please, prefer something like Stillen or similar brand.
  16. Good call in this situation
  17. Most aftermarket kits will be lower than std, not sure your going to achieve too much in fairness.
  18. I am not trying to reassure myself or deflect, i have had both goodridge and hel over the years (both fine), its just a balance to the discussion, does it matter when they have failed, still going to end in the same result and as you say to me, if you want to dismiss some factual info thats fine The op post is good info for sure, check your Hel lines but out of millions of lines sold, a few rogue ones are sure to be out there, just like any other high pressure fitting on any other hose, no need for hysteria and necessarily thing other lines dont or havent had failures.
  19. Tigersealed to the bumper, sadly, as provision isnt made to properly mount the boot release etc Sorry no pictures
  20. Oh another one http://www.subaruoutback.org/forums/81-wheels-tires-brakes-suspension/26406-goodridge-brake-lines-rant-review.html
  21. Still a failure Another one http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/forum/post/index.htm?t=41377 Shall i keep going?
  22. Just for balance: Goodridge failure: http://www.lancerregister.com/showthread.php?t=343356 Stoptech failure: http://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php/226104-StopTech-stainless-steel-brake-line-failure Sure there are many more including oem
  23. Probably just seeing if there was anything visable for them to nick, laptop, sat nav, stereo etc more so than any vandalism, they wouldnt have needed the light on their phone to put a key down the side.
  24. The only difference I noticed was in steering and quick direction change. I would be very surprised if your bum dyno was that sensitive to have noticed any acceleration changes, it would be fractional at best.
  25. Yes really looking forward to going to Hdev
