  1. I love WWE! Oh no wait, that was the 13 year old me. Sorry 'bout that.
  2. Bollocks, that national anthem thing is stupid, the drivers are there to race and they should be 100% focused on the race with 10 mins to go.
  3. Don't run same size tyres all round on the Zed, keep at least a 200mm stagger front to rear.
  4. Exactly the right way to do it, don't forget to do before and after pics
  5. If using an orbital polisher you'd be incredibly hard pressed to do any damage at all. The medium pad would be fine with the UC, maybe even the light pad, should give decent results without any risk. Don't expect miracles though, you can only do so much with it, but as a place to start you'll be fine
  6. I want another Zed, but every time I think about getting another one I look at all the other cars out there and I just think that I want to experience different cars in my life. Doesn't mean we're not still looking at swapping the Mini for one though...
  7. Hydro tech for me. I have all three types depending on what compound I'm using and what I want to achieve. What compound/s are you using?
  8. 5 bed houses ftw No such thing as a TV too big for the room. I'd go bigger if budget allowed.
  9. The whole engine is sealed by a big gasket and that's pumping oil round at much bigger pressures than what's sitting in the sump It'll be fine, and as said it's a much better idea than just welding them shut.
  10. Significantly! Chuffed for Seb, glad Lewis is still ahead of Nico, it'll be interesting to see what Ferrari are like in the next race now. Genuine challengers, or was this just a bad strategy call by Merc?
  11. Not when they're rolling. Nowt in it as stock, much quicker with a £200 remap. But let's not go there again...
  12. Old threads, basically some people decided that because they're quicker in a straight line, the Astra VXR and Fabia VRS are better than the 350Z.
  13. Go bed them in properly. Do a search for Redstuff pads, I posted the procedure up only last week for someone else.
  14. Sounds like a bargain matey, man maths at work again Have you tried a curved screen before?
  15. Don't get me wrong, it's not perfect by any means (there was a reason I bought a 911 not the M3) as it can feel a trifle staid inside as it's just another 3-series, but in terms of the actual drive I couldn't fault it.
  16. Completely different league, they're not even close in performance in either a straight line or round corners. Even more so with the DCT, it's a seriously impressive 'box if you like flappy paddles. Last of the high revving NA M cars. Buy one before everyone else does.
  17. Good rant, needs more c-bombs, but otherwise a sterling effort. 8/10

    Toyo Tyres

    I'd run 888s on a Zed, but there's not much else out there in the Toyo range I'd run, certainly not on something with 300bhp. Even if the MPSS are 30% more expensive, you'll get at least 50% more life from them so it makes financial sense to do that.

    VX220

    To this day, I still actively avoid drain covers when driving because of my time with the VXR.
