  1. i'd go for the R34 GTT. I'm not a fan of skylines but out of all of the models I think that's the best looking and a lot of a car for the money. Easy power gains too.
  2. Nice purchase. Zed looks good in black.
  3. Clarkson. he should know better. He has been in hot water before. It is the original rhyme, but he could've chosen a better one. Of course, it was never intended to be on camera as part of the show. We all make mistakes hence why there are rubbers on the end of pencils. I don't believe he is a screaming racist just because he said the N word. I don't think it's a good enough reason to turn someone into a human punch bag.
  4. A good friend of mine had a some cheap wrap on his bonnet. He had a similar problem getting off. It does grip like a baby on a tit.
  5. I get a lot of looks when going towards people but that's thanks to the N-spec front bumper and the Berks/cobra set up.
  6. I had a guy come and look at my Nissan pulsar, he said" how many miles to the gallon?" I said well, depends how you drive it but i'd say around 25 on a good run" he replied " oh? i'd expect better from diesel!" He did offer close to the asking price and I would've taken it if he hadn't said that. I'm glad he did say it and as he was a cretin, I declined his offer.
  7. you get pulled for Blue neons. Five O don't like it as emergency vehicles are the only ones allowed on the road to use blue neon/flashing lights.
  8. Next mod for that car is a piano dropped on it from a multi-storey. Perfect!
  9. that exhaust is big.... a bus might think it's a tunnel. bet it sounds great!
  10. he's running 4 chefs @ the fly with 4 customers @ the hubs!! that's not bad. One customer for every chef.
  11. awesome cars that'll embarrass much more expensive and faster. Have fun!
  12. Does anyone remember - and you probably do - when Vicky butler (I think that's her name) from 5th gear did the 350z review and stacked it up against the Rx8 on the track? Zed was quicker iirc.
  13. just downloaded hotline Miami on the ps3. it's awesome, old school action with a 21st century twist. Brutal too.
  14. uh uh, never. I once let a friend drive me GT-four, he had no idea how to drive a turbo charged car, or any car for that matter. I almost ground my teeth down to the gums sitting next to him. I just don't like anyone driving my car, not even my dad who'll ceremoniously pull away in 2nd and go straight into 6th.
  15. favourites are (in no particular order) :tony iommi (black Sabbath) best solo possibly on johnny blade. Jeff loomis from Nevermore. Larry carlton and lee ritenour, excellent jazz guitarists. Zakk Wylde from Black label society. But here's some larry and lee. I think the best thing about this song are the shirts! And check out that octive action.
  16. I had a group of 20 somethings walk past my car whilst in traffic. One said "oooo, look at you, aren't you special! " so I got out and said to him " yes, I was once like you, a bum walking the street, but if you get a half decent job, you too can own a 9 year old car.. then you know you've really made the big time, you F**king moron" not that it's anything to do with badge snobbery but had a tenuous link.
  17. oh come on guys, I think we have to accept that some people just have no idea about cars. it may be to your disbelief but it's true. My brother in law once asked me " what's that metal round thingy behind the wheel? " I said " the brake disc " he said " the what now..?? " my dad had to close my mouth shut. This is a man who bought a Fiat Punto in red washed it once in two years and it ended up being pink. Managed to break 2 clutches in 4 months because he thought pulling away in 3rd in a 1.1 was just fine.
  18. So.. the search is over, Bigfoot really is alive. If ever there was a candidate for the missing link it'd be her. But if it really is true about her trying to get an abortion just to get onto big brother - lets not forget, it is from the news paper.. and the mirror at that - i sincerely hope that doctors in the country have read this story and will deny her the procedure. Or, wait for the baby to be born and then weld her vag shut.
  19. After reading some of your stories guys, i think mine pales in comparison and i feel i got off lightly.
  20. ..with myself! So, monday morning, i'm at my dad's place getting the water off the zed. A few pre-flight checks before take off. I'm reversing slowly out of the drive way, for some strange reason the radio kicks in, I reach over to turn it off, with a wet shoe on the clutch pedal it slips off and wham! backed straight into my old man's 330d BMW that he spent all day polishing. I felt awful. I couldn't believe it. I ease forward and get out. I rush over to the Beemer and find a basket ball size dent in the rear offside door. I look at the back of my Zed. Nothing, no damage apart from a small scratch that I was able to T-cut out. Oh boy was I pi**ed off with myself. I'm usually really careful. So I had to tell him but he wasn't awake yet. When I heard him get up, I made him a cup of tea and broke the news to him, which he took with amazing calmness. I gave him some money to buy a new door and he found one in London he's going to collect today but me oh my, what royal **** up that was. I don't suppose anyone else has done something in a similar vein?
  21. 19 with a Zed!!! holy smoke Batman. When I was 19 I had an astra 1.6si. it cost me 300 smackers and 700 in insurance. Yikes!!
