^^ So being i believe i have reasonable car control, what would be a better option, a drift school or car control school, bearing in mind i have zero interested in drifting?

^^^ I was going to say that myself but seemed a bit ironic coming from me

So we give up our bargaining chip, as Ekona says above, why would the Germans not just agree to a like for like deal?

The Eu arent offering to protect uk citizens living in the Eu.

OK, being a little more specific, was it right for them to amend the bill looking to protect eu citizens in this country?

So lets have some thoughts, was it right for the house of lords to vote to amend the bill?

But they still work?

Appreciate the comments, obviously its a mental thing, but its not a fear of crashing, i just dont feel comfortable with it sliding even though i can control it, not as well as some granted

I have a question for the drift gurus, put me in a kart and happy to drift and control a drift/slide without thought, put me in a car on track though and as soon as the back end goes, my instant reaction is to get it back in line, any thoughts? And whether relevant, i used to motorcross, back end is always all over the place, as soon as i started riding road bikes, i hated the rear end sliding.

Whilst i appreciate its not as good looking as a 350z, and R35's could never look like a sports coupe, i sure as hell wish R35's looked a bit more like these

Just your gp dude, explain your concerns and they will sort it

Hey it wouldnt hurt mate, certainly no shame in it and if it helps you understand or come to terms with these issues, got to be a win win surely Best of luck

You will find someone that will make her pale into insignificance and you will thank you're lucky stars you split, i promise you that

No one is saying you are an idiot buddy, far from it, we are just saying, be prepared for every eventuality, as everyone has said you can only make your own plans, what she does or doesnt do is immaterial now, you cannot pre empt what may happen, make you're plans and tackle things as they come up, but the sooner you address any outstanding issues the better.

I used that very phrase earlier in this thread

P.s If it gets nasty, dont be surprised if she tells you about another fella, it will just be her way of trying to upset you, suck it up, dont react, tell her no problem and you are seeing someone else anyway.

Honestly dude you just made me feel sick No I would not be happy, furious actually. Maybe I'm naive but I just don't see that happening soon, shes looks after her son full time and wouldn't bring a new man anywhere near him for a good while after us, I know that for sure. She's not the one night stand type either, took her a while to feel comfortable will me etc. Obviously she will meet someone at some point but hopefully not within the next month while I'm still supporting her. Frankly I'd be devastated if I found out there was someone else. Sorry buddy, but its something you are going to have to face and i will still never cease to be amazed at what some people do, even the ones you think you know. I guess that thought it always the worst part of a relationship break up, but its sadly inevitable, so forget what you think you know and get these dealings with her out the way and hopefully you wont see that eventuality.

And dont let your dreams turn into a nightmare

No need to talk, do it via email or text and put the key through the letter box and do it sooner rather than later.

Did it take much off? I've been looking at wrapping my Tomei exhaust, its a bit too loud so was considering wrapping it from the cats back to the back box but I could never find a definitive answer whether it increased or decreased the noise Think it was actually 3 on my vx definitely changes the tone.

It has taken a couple of dbs off both my 350z and vx220 at static

No as above with what Gm says, if i was having a new manifold, cats, i would do them just to help under bonnet temps, but for performance gains, its just not relevant on with moderate hp, different if your talking a big hp turbo car and you want to keep the gases hot to get them to exit quicker.

Its usually where they pry a crow bar to get under the tyre, just laziness

I wouldnt wrap much further than the cats to be honest and not really a lot of point unless you wrap the manifolds and to be honest, its really not going to net you any more power on a na, 1bhp perhaps. The most noticeable improvement if you wrap will be under bonnet temps.

Unless you think its value in the Uk has increased, the exchange rate from then to now is immaterial. I appreciate if someone wanted one, they would have to go to Japan, but it doesnt necessarily make yours worth more in the UK imho. If the exchange rate shot up and yours would have effectively cost you less from Japan, would you lower the value on the same basis? Totally agree with an agreed valuation though, but i really dont think the fluctuation in the exchange rate is the key element.
