  1. i think i might have a small amount of iron on vinyl left at home, so might even be able to do a papa smurf logo for you to iron on FOC

    Toyota FT-86

    lets hope scoobies version of it will have a turbo version. my guess is there will be other models released with power upgrades. i would expect subaru to do a turbo'd version at some point or even a 4wd version maybe.
  3. i think its time to make like a tree and leaf.

    Toyota FT-86

    depends on how heavy it is in comparison to the zed. 1280Kg nearly 400kg lighter than the zed zed = 173 bhp per ton FT86 = 154 bhp and i'm guessing if its using the boxer engine then its going to be turbo'd which means getting it up to 300 bhp is going to be a piece of pi$$ and cost very little in comparison to getting the same kind of gain out of the zed. probably looking at £500-£600 to get 50-60 bhp out of the ft86. double that and a bit more to get it an extra 100 bhp over stock. its basically an impreza engine, so what ever you can do to tune the nuts off one of those then you can do the same to this toyota.

  9. thats what i'm currently using. also check what joint its using, if its a straight thread (requires lots of plumbers tap to seal the joint), or tapered thread (generally seals itself, but a bit of plumbers tape for luck), or if it uses an olive joint.
  10. majority of exhaust discolour over time, they go abit goldy, then dull gold then browny metallic, bit of TLC and autosol usually cleans them up

  12. we all knew that already; i think its the way you type, but good of you to admit it any way. we can all be a bit of a nob sometimes as well, so your not on your own
  13. if your in colchester i would reccomend a vist to martlesham near me, the bodyshop i use is there and they are brilliant. they did my bodykit on the zed, and they also have a mechanical section who do all the servicing and mod work on my cars etc. give them a ring and book a time to pop in for them to check it. ipswich accident and repair centre have been faultless. and only 30 mins from you. http://www.ipswichaccidentrepaircentre.co.uk/ always welcome to pop in for a coffee as i'm round the corner from them
  14. yes that looks like it will do the job, just as long as the connection is the same. as for power showers, they do a job when replumbing is not an option. i personally love my full pressurised system. means i can use mixer taps etc and no issues with suprise hot cold moments etc. and alwyas have brilliant water force when in the shower.
  15. essex is a large area, some specifics might help. if you're near braintree then braintree accident and repair are meant to be good, used to live that way and they were the people that a lot of the autofactors reccomended. not the cheapest, but did a spot on job. as for cost; without seeing the damage its hard to guess. what colour is the car? some colours are easier to blend than others. my guess is it will be a respray of what ever panel its on. guide price is a rear or front bumper is around £250-£400 depending on company.
  16. if the current water system is something like a pressurized system its fine, but if its run off a gravity feed it might not like it. or if its a power shower it might be fine. i'm currently doing a bathroom at the moment, it had a bath and no shower, so i've plumbed in the pipes and just waiting to tile before i can fit the unit. but its a pressured system which makes it easy. as i can bolt what ever the hell i like on to it. as all i have to worry about is the 2 pipes coming out of the wall. i'm setting it up as a twin shower, so a large rain type shower head and a 2nd shower head to be used in the bath etc. i'm not sure you can get just a bolt on rain head; usually you have to buy the whole caboodle. with tap section etc.
  17. what type of system do you currently run? is it a power shower or run off the water pressure?
  18. dogging
  19. is there a limit on the size of stone i'm allowed to use? also as i'm quite a big guy am i still allowed to use my strongest arm or do i need to have a handicap and use my weaker arm?
  20. its intrigueing as it goes against everything abbey motorsports say about the best zed setup?
  21. didn't throw them out, just refused to share them with the other kids
  22. I'm sorry and you are?
