  1. Funny as hell - unless you are kicked off the plane - but why does it then link to find-a-bike.de Hmmm I know I am going to Germany next week, but don't fancy buying a bike in Germany whilst I'm there!!
  2. Funny thing is the pressure is just right. Okay you have to guide the boot up rather than just letting go of it, other wise as you previously quoted it will fling a cat 100 yards!! There is a slight amount of lift at the back - so I shall need to find a way of lowering the lock down to bring the tail of the boot closer to the bodywork!! Another job succesfully completed.
  3. That is classic!! He really feels the music, it's either that or he needs to the toilet!! At least the kid isn't growing up with Simon and Garfunkel like I did as a child!!!
  4. My boot now opens on it's own!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank holy mother of god for that!! I press the button and boot pops up - like automatically.... This is now a new found luxury. I might dissable my power steering, and after 3 months put it back on to feel how nice it is!! Funny how you get used to luxuries in life - anyway some photo's of my old shocks but now fitted correctly!!
  5. I'm bored, would be playing GT5 if it had been ******* released yet I bet after all this wait it will be a load of cack and just like all the other GT's. Although we only purchase it for the detail on the cars anyway. The lobby of GT5 prologue - I love the german village with the coble streets and a 360 view of your car currently selected. The level of detail is outstanding. I collected my PS3 on the day of release - I will be doing the same with the PS4 comes out - one day! Question: How old do us gamers anticipate gaming until - maybe this is worth a separate thread. I don't think I will grow old for gaming and still be playing Grand Theft Auto at a grand old age of 80 (well if I get that far)!! Ive often thought this sort of thing Will I be an embarrassing Grandad raving to Prodigy at my grandchilds wedding???? I can imagine getting told off by the missus for overdoing it Isn't that what grand parrents do already?!!!! I can relate to the Prodigy thing - damn they were the days.... Brixton Academy - it was messy to say the least!! I saw them many times but the early days were truly the best.

    Cool fella - brush some idea's past me for your next project!! I've heard that Super Chargers are the way to go.... Pink wheels are a bit last year... although Carbon is def back in!!
  10. Although, if the battery is flat as a dodo then it may be a jump lead start?
  11. Another year older eh Mark.... you'll have to sell up soon and get a sensible car Happy B Day!
  12. As far as I am aware it's only the Automatic cars that are an issue to bump start. I can't see an issue in doing so to the Zed, it's like any other manual car?
  13. Colour is a bit yuck, like others have said a lot of work and I'm sure money has gone into that effect. Very clever, but clearly no taste. Burn that bloke!!
  14. That's cruel - but funny.....
  15. I'll second that statement!! Sound and looks I love - I would contemplate swapping back to my 06 box - but Mark (naughty) drilled a hole in my ARC induction pipe for my NOS. Not that I'm too fussed as it's probably best there anyway. So I will have a 06 box and tubing available for sale. Although going on holiday next week so I shall sort something out upon my return. Got to admit don't think I could lose the sound of the ARC - it just sounds bliss!
  16. Blimey my first car - funny enough an escort MkII had a twin webber... the blasted thing had a float problem and after a short to medium drive the copper float would sink and thus over fuel the car and just konk out. I think it may have something to do with the fact it was a 1.6 webber on a 1.3 - not that I fitted it, it was a nuisence. It subsequently turned out the car was actually a cut and shut. Got pulled over by the police where they informed me the only part that was original was the passenger/driver area, the front and back were from totally different cars!!
  17. They would all be very close times, but it depends on the driver. The Integra being the lightest would be most nimble and the easiest to set off from the line. The power of the Z and M3 would then either keep up or overtake the Integra. If the Z or M3 have flying starts the Integra has no chance. I have a simular race with a mate of mine in a Civic Type R. The differences are that he is 100bhp lesser powered, yet is 55 stone lighter than my car. That's like his car with 3 full sized blokes in the car. He is quick don't get me wrong, but if I drive the car properly then I will always have the upper hand. He has the ability to rev the nuts out of his car i.e. 9k revs, but then I have the torque in which to keep up or over take. Before I had my modifications we were pretty much neck and neck - although just managing to pull away slowly. It would be a different story from 70mph onwards. Since my modifications he's left standing so I'm pretty much happy. To confirm there is a 0.6 second difference per the book 0-60 between me and him. It doesn't sound a great deal and if you were to visualize this on a track - there would be maybe 1 car length or so difference. So the answer to your question is, it's all down to the driver! If that be the case the M3 should win, Zed second and Integra last.
  18. What the hell you doing with my struts, give them back I could of sworn I had them back but clearly not. Best I come over tomorrow night if you are free. Still can't believe you've got them. Maybe I'm loosing my marbles
  19. Well where they have gone I don't know? Nurrish they aren't at your place are they? I'm sure I didn't sell them and all the other boot bits are there but no struts!!!!
  20. Stil looking for my struts!!!!
  21. Thanks for the pm, if that's sorted your problem, guess what I'm about to do!!!! If it works I'll post a pic
  22. Let's hope it's something minor that's causing the noise and can be resolved quickly and of course cheap!
  23. Azure with nismo spoiler as that's all I saw reg XXX POU - Dudley road Then a GM on the Stratford Road - Sparkhill. Nismo front and rear by what I could tell as it was parked up as driving by. Both vehicles B)
  24. Mark, I get the same issue - although more severe, as it lifts the entire boot whilst being locked down. You can almost get your hand inside the boot. Although I get exactly the same distortion at the top of the boot as Nurrish. It really doesn't add up, as my car never had the same issue as Nurrish as it's my original boot. We even tried swapping struts and the problem was the same?? It can't be bent otherwise it wouldn't sit back down, unless the struts are like you say on the wrong way round, but then I didn't think it would be possible to make that error??? Bonkers!
