  1. stuff II We also have to consider whether the offender intended to stir up racial hatred or whether racial hatred was likely to result. Hatred is a very strong emotion. Stirring up racial tension, opposition, even hostility may not necessarily be enough to amount to an offence. The law only covers acts that are intended, or are likely to stir up, racial hatred. Except of course if you are a muslim hate preacher living in the UK, because apparently they have rights to stop deportation! The muslims who burned poppies at the remembrance day parades, £50 fine from memory! What those dumb tw*ts dont realise is the soldiers who gave their life for this country are the very people who have kept this country from the biggest mentalist of all time!! And you think Clarkson needs the full extend of the law for a comment it seems he actively tried not to be aired due to his concern! Good god man, open your eyes to what is actually racist!!!!!
  2. Think we might end up with the same car at this rate, its not 100% that i will get one yet, but with a little bit of other bodywork going on i might as well do things like that at the same time
  3. Just in case anyone is thinking of selling up before i order a new one

    Quick bump before i go the new route
  5. When i got the car it came with these springs and no adjustable camber arms, so in essence its not a necessity, however running them will be preferential!
  6. My mother used to run a play school, for years and years she looked after many children without issue! One day the pc brigade turned up, they were no longer able to sing the nursery rhymes, bah bah black sheep, three blind mice and others and as said above, gollywogs toys were banned! The toys the kids played with had to have a black doll introduced and also one without an arm or leg, i sh*t you not! In all name of political correctness!
  7. Apex lowering springs, good overall condition, a few surface marks/rust as you would expect, perfect working order. £75 postage to mainland UK, collection from Bournemouth
  8. There are far worse things going on in this world than the use of the n word imho, if people are seriously going to get all emotional about it, particularly if it has no bearing on their existence, should really look at channelling their moral compass into far more worthy fights, dare i say crusades!
  9. Yid is pretty much forgotten these days, rarely hear it and was an example i was going to use, i used to hear it at school years ago. Sorry i dont buy the slavery thing, white people were also heavily used in slavery, in most instances long before blacks were
  10. Should a black person be prosecuted for referring to a friend in the same manner? If not, why? And so you come full circle to the whole big media scandal that was Ron Atkinson using the very same word, there was even a programme made with big Ron where he looked back on the history of the word and asked varying black people (inc celebs, pop stars) why it was ok that they alone can use the word! Whilst ever people make a fuss, the word and its origins will live on, ignore it and it will go away and no longer be recognised! I would also like to ask Chubster, is it any worse than calling someone, baldy, fatty, ginge or any other insult or words like mentioned above, honky, whitey, pom etc
  11. and if you want to provoke me into answering the question in your first sentence - clearly the answer is yes - and you seem to be quite comfortable there. I feel sad that you are happy to parade this disgusting word as you do. Why not apologise, as Mr. Clarkson quite rightly has already done? Clarksons apology was about as meaningful as his use of the word nigga, he apologised merely as that is what he was told to do! You want to have a think about why Ukips popularity is snowballing, its not because they are racist
  12. Doubt it very much. I don't think most non car enthusiasts would have any idea what they are. Don't kid yourself, how many times do we hear the phrase "The GTR is better than *insert expensive prestige marque here* because it's so much faster everywhere!"? People are buying them because they have bragging rights, just as much as they are because they're a good car in their own right.They want one specifically because it's not a Porsche or a Ferrari or an Audi, which is as much to do with brand snobbery as it is buying an R8 over the fat Nissan. I would believe most owners buy the gtr because their budget wont stretch to "enter prestige marque here", sure I have seen some owners change from prestige marques to the gtr as it is faster but most buy because for that performance and budget its the best out there in terms of outright speed. I think your quite unique Ekona, I have no doubt you enjoy the Porsche for its driving experience, but I think your 80 20 split is way off the mark, in my opinion and experience of knowing owners of course. 79.5% probably want you to believe they have bought a Porsche as they are enthusiasts of its abilities, 19.5% are fat, balding middle aged men going through a mid life crisis hoping to attract a new younger replacement for their ageing wife by posing down the wine bar and have zero interest in its performance abilities. The final 1% are enthusiasts like yourself and Docwra. Maybe its an area thing, it is certainly like the above my way
  13. Sailing close to the wind as ever and in reality, probably loosing no sleep over it! Its not the first time he has been controversial and sure it wont be the last, however ignorant and stupid some people might think he is, he certainly isnt stupid enough to repeatedly walk the line and risk his job! Is he racist, i wouldnt care to comment as i know him as well as probably anyone on here However, i do think he believes in freedom of speech, something that is being slowly erroded due to being the political correctness this country seems to have embraced with open arms. Am i a racist, do i dislike someone solely because of their race, no of course not, but am I getting sick to death of being told what i can and cant say in my country of birth by minorities and foreign cultures who settle here, absolutely!
  14. Ahh sarcasm, ...my favourite form of wit. And so soon into the thread hopefully when i get some pictures and posts up of what has happened comments will become relevant
  15. You could also try Dave at JdmDistro, pretty sure they can get lips too, not cheap though, £200 a lip, but will be a nice set up
  16. Should be really easy, what wheels are they?
  17. Also possibly these guys in Germany http://www.titanium-..._Rim-Rings.html or even try http://wheelflip.com/ in the States if you get stuck, by all account Image Wheels dont have the best interpersonal skills
  18. Image Wheels is your most likely bet, there was someone else if i remember it will post a link. http://www.imagewheels.co.uk/
  19. The Porsche is also out of most peoples reach which makes it something to aspire to All valid points But i have no aspiration to own a Porsche regardless of how good they are, they just dont float my boat. My desire stretches to more than a Nissan as well though, but given a lets say Porsche (whichever model) budget to work with, there are other cars i would much prefer to own! I probably wouldnt want a BMW either ( M car), unless my circumstances changed dramatically where i needed something more practical, seating etc I dont think anyone is saying owning a Nissan is their ultimate goal in life, but nor is owning a Porsche. One day i hope to have a Gallardo or maybe a 355 Spider, i wouldnt doubt for one minute you could say either of those are better than a high end 911, but thats what i would have given the choice
  20. I am sure you would all get very bored of small changes over months
  21. You're not the only one, it's an enigma Tidied it up, hopefully makes sense now
  22. I started one of these members build threads when i first joined but the thread is gone it seems, not that i got any further than the before photo. Well after photos coming soon, will still be some minor things i want to do but the bulk will be done. Why best of both worlds, I am trying to sit somewhere firmly in the middle of being good on the track without too many ill effects on the road. Whilst i realise there are many more things i could do to improve the car on the track it is still a weekend and occasional evening car that i want to enjoy on the road. Hopefully i have found a happy balance with the parts i have chosen. I know this thread is worthless without pictures, but they wont be far away, new boots are landed and on route, quick refurb with a little bodywork tidying and i will be back
  23. The Apex came off today and they look progressive to me, tighter wound coils at the top!
  24. Thought i would revive this after a little appreciation today. Went to pick up the 350 from my mechanics place after having some suspension changes (thanks Keyser) My mechanic mate had just gone for a road test (dont worry i trust him he is a mate) and whilst he was out a woman turned up to pick up her car, as he drove back into the workshop she leapt up from the waiting room and came into the garage asking what it was as its absolutely gorgeous (being a woman she emphasised the word gorgeous as they do), i told her and she said it was stunning, sadly she wasnt
