  1. Does freedom of information allow you to know what the BIB have on you???? I'd be interested to know........ To a degree yes. Information won't be released if it jeopardises an operation or criminal investigation, otherwise they should tell you. If intelligence isn't pertinent, or old, it uses gets deleted. Think it only costs about £10. Could be a laugh
  2. Would be interesting to find out if the officer put any intelligence on your car as well...
  3. Took me a few times saying it out loud to get that one Got there in the end
  4. How about 'K'? Seems to be all the rave at the moment I didnt know you could do this? Freedom of information act is a wonderful thing Officially if they stop you, there is some kind of forms they have to fill in and have to (if asked) supply you a copy. When I was a youth, the local coppers used to try and stop search us all the time until we asked for something similar (as told to us by a mates dad who was a copper) and then they didnt bother any more Dont think coppers like skaters for some reason Paperwork is too much hassle for most coppers unless they have a real reason to stop you. Technically if an officer stops someone to advise them, there's no official form, although good practice would be to note everything in a Pocket Book. If they stop to search, or ask what you are doing, a form has to be filled in and it has to be recorded. It's also recorded if they do any kind of national or local check on you or your car. Overview here It sounds like the only real thing this copper did wrong was to lecture and threaten to take the car, which would wind any innocent person up. Should always treat people with respect. If he had seen the car being driven in an unnacceptable manner and was unable to stop it (being off duty) then I don't think there's anything wrong with stopping the car and speaking to the driver. I wish someone was there to stop and speak to the kids doing timed laps on scooters around the estate yesterday. . .
  5. Realised I just lectured everyone about the police lecturing. . .how ironic
  6. stnuc? Some cops feel the need to lecture the world, and get very upset when people refused to be lectured. Think it would be fair enough if he'd pulled you if he thought you had been driving earlier in the day, that's his job. But without evidence there's nothing he can do, so a quick advisory word should really suffice, and none of this 'I could seize your car due to your driving manners earier in the day when I saw a car that's looks similar to yours.' Your solicitor would have a field day. Time's are changing and some police need to up the ante a little.
  7. What's gay about a load of seamen on the poop deck? Was in Egypt recently, and chuckled like an immature child when I saw a map of Turtle Bay, as I'm sure anchor has been dropped there
  8. Don't think the increases in power are peak power mate, but I could definately feel more midrange pull as soon as it was fitted. I had mine fitted at ESR and it look around an hour IIRC, but they did them day in day out. No more than 2 hours max.
  9. I keep looking at the pics thinking it's looking better, but then I see my 350z out of the window
  10. Very impressive car, love what you have done with it. Not sure why you had to find a red car to begin with, not much left stock apart from a couple of panels Don't think it matters if you loose torque or not either, no-one will race you as they'd be too busy admiring your work
  11. Car looks awesome. Nice pics too, first time I've really seen the similarities with the styling between the Zed and the GTR
  12. Interested to see what happens on this. Welcome to the forum
  13. I had this problem recently mate. Do you know exactly where the leak is coming from? I had a leak from the top of the hose as a jubilee clip had worn a bit, so I replaced it and problem fixed for nothing. Squarehead had a leaky PAS pump and he fixed it by finding an aluminium welder. Get your front bumper off and have a look
  14. Wasn't just me being thick then (for once) Definately needs sorting for the 'pop' in pop charger
  15. Sorry if this has been covered. I did try to search but it kept saying 'no match' whatever I put in. This must be wrong though as I've read a few topics on VEL and car tax. I have to renew before the end of this month. Should I go for 6 or 12 months? I'm thinking if I go 6 months, I can renew then for 12 and when it goes up next April I will have beat the system for a while. . .or have they alredy thought of this. Anyone know? Cheers in advance
  16. Just so you don't get discouraged from doing group buys on here in the future, I bought 2 tubs, and 2 other members have posted to say they bought 4 tubs. A couple of others have said they'd be interested too. Thought the group buy was over by wednesday a few weeks ago, so rang up and got mine over the phone after the date had passed.
  17. Got a feeling some tosser at work with a bog standard Boxter loosened them Or it could just be me being complacent when changing the baffles. . .
  18. Site looks great guys, very impressed 2 weeks I think but don't quote me!!! 14 days or it's not valid
  19. It really is a great exhaust - dont think you can get much more extreme really. Just be careful with the bung screws, I keep loosing mine and can't find anywhere that sells them.
  20. Just hope it's better than the last series they did, wasn't impressed with that. Love Red Dwarf
  21. I find it better on a cold start, engine seems a bit smoother and doesn't seem to struggle as much. No difference to me when engines warm tho, but if there was extra strain it would reduce the life of my engine I suppose without it being noticable.
  22. Opie Oils recommended 5w40 for the Z engine. I was on the millers 10w60 before, and he said it was like your heart pumping treacle around your body.
