  1. yea will probably just shatter.
  2. Is it possible to bend carbonfibre? I guess the fact it is heat resistant would mean a very high temp required, probably more than I have @ home are carbonfibre bits that are bent done so during the construction process? I have 1mm sheet carbon fibre that I would need a little bend in to "hook" over something, is it possible?
  3. On my blitz Type R EBC, there is a 3rd port not used (one vac line & data wire) and one free, in the guide it says "optional" harness input not used for basic operation, which from what I can make out you can run something like an oil pressure line ? or similar has anyone done this? (*15053 SBC Optional Harness) Regards, Hob
  4. No not that one This was for a fillm (sort of Fast and Furious meets snatch) saw a load of modified cars, but wtf it had to do with the movie (looked like a snatch sort of film), did I just dream this movie?
  5. Lost my grandfather the other week, totally unexpected from cancer. I was going to visit my grandparents a couple of weeks ago but put it off because something came up, although I got to see him 3 times whilst in hospital, not going to stay with them and putting it off was a big mistake, visit all of your family when you can for when they are gone you will realise all the stuff you still had left to talk about. Luckily I took my Grandad out in my car the previous year, something he loved
  6. how long does libel last? I mean I cant remember what I said 4 days ago let alone 4 years
  7. @ VW garage, who probably knows this now, your alarm is being set off everytime a car passes by, which being parked on a main road meant it was going off every 2 mins;)
  8. Rebas http://www.rebas-systems.co.uk/ Fitted my boost controller amazingly, very very very tidy install, super pleased running 1.1 bar on the four, big thumbs up, tis great finding a place that installs things the way you, yourself would. Had an evo/mazda/two supra's a TVR and a nissan (think 200sx?) there as well once again thanks Rebas
  9. damn it, how can you do that, how can you summarise everything I have said in 2 lines
  10. I think its because they can't, It would either cost way too much to produce or they dont have the facility to produce it, it would take a lot (or would cost a lot) to mass produce cars, even then if they only made hundreds it would then mean each one would cost way too much. The only way it could be done would be if subaru made the car, but then a) it wouldn't be a pro drive car b) the impreza would take a bit of a hit. Then factor in the major thing about the top spec 4wd versions, mainly bought by enthusiasts and they have to produce X ammount to enter into the rallying, which they could only really do but under subaru. So if it were to be produced as a car, the only way I could see it happening would be through homogenation via a rally car, but then whats the point since subaru use pro drive anyway, the costs doing it any other way wouldn't make economic sense, if it did they would screw subaru and become a major car company probably overtaking subaru in the 4wd rally area. If it did make economic sense to make (and could make a profit) there would be no way anyone would turn that down. The technical side of it is there but I think its a bit like the Bugatti, a show off toy of their performance not intended for mass production ( although it looks like the Bugatti is going that way!) and it has worked, it has put pro drive on the map for the masses
  11. Yep has antilag without fubaring the turbo's, nice bit of kit shame they miss out on a winner of a car, simply because they cant make it.
  12. I look at these things in a good way, it means its only a shorter period of time before the revolt occurs
  13. the loaf in the airbox?
  14. 2-1 to England, lucky goal by Portugal from a corner. Crouch to score a header then one by Rooney.
  15. I cant I have a alcohol problem... I have none
  16. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=10428&item=4643464978 "please note:This is an advert and a link to our website,not and auction. Winning bidders will receive a 10amp fuse." auction won @ £8.00 and the winning bidder says: good ebayer , paulsupra69 ( 199) despite previous feedback: This is a very misleading item (10A fuse & a weblink) and not the item expected. wtf??? he is pleased to received a 10 amp fuse?

  19. I use fast hosts, but mainly only for the server (I manage) and Bandwith, I have heard their managing is quite naff, and you have to do your own backups
  20. Maybe something like an xbox 360 + if enough cash a HD tv? I can imagine some time needed for R&R once he comes round and so "chill out" stuff I would imagine would be a safer bet?
  21. 60 mph in 5th? 3rd gear for 60 and only after a shift from second think its 63 mph top in 2nd gear, not suprised it took ages to spool in 5th lol
  22. I had the choice of windows vs linux (used red hat & suse) but chose windows (much to the dismay of a few anti windows people) so far around 6 months with no problems *touch wood* server 2003 is highly underated although it does cost £££ if you dont get it *ahem Pre installed
