  1. Shhh, forget all that, it's a bargain. I want someone to buy it and tell me how much fun it is.
  2. http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/mercedes-benz/cl/2004-mercedes-benz-cl600-5-5-bi-turbo-cl-600-facelift-biturbo-500bhp-not-cl55/4970518?v=b That's gotta be worth a gamble surely?! Someone buy it.
  3. It almost certainly isn't. The best ways to go are to fit a 2JZ-GTE engine, or just sell the NA and buy a TT in the first place. There are no off the shelf supercharger kits for the 2JZ-GE, so you're in for a whole world of pain. Read through David P's thread if you don't believe me. If you still intend on going down the supercharger route then I applaud your commitment, and wish you luck.
  4. Same here... but they've announced the dev backers will get a free production model. How I wish I'd got one at the start now!
  5. I believe the LS7 is a fair bit lighter than the older LS2/3's, but I'd guess something like the Audi 2.0 TFSI is still going to be about a third lighter still? The LS V8's may be lighter than a 2JZ, but they're still not exactly featherweights.
  6. I don't understand people saying put a 2JZ or V8 in a small lightweight (ish) sports car. I'd look at sticking a turbocharged 4 pot in one.
  7. Ah the final few days of 2015, over 10 years since this valuable "how to" was first started. Perhaps 2016 will be the year this thread slips quietly into forum history, and is forgotten about. Nah, of course not.
  8. I saw it in 3D but didn't think the 3D was that impressive. It wasn't filmed in 3D so it's just faked in post-production.
  9. Completely agree regarding the story. I enjoyed the film, but come up with some other ideas for christ sake. The forced friendship with Finn and Poe really annoyed me, started off on different sides, spent 2 minutes together escaping, and then they meet up like long lost buddies? Gah! I just thought Poe was annoying, like a toned down Ace Rimmer or Lord Flashheart, were we supposed to like him? I didn't like the actor who played General Hux either (one of the Weasley's from Harry Potter?).
  10. Snape kills Dumbledore!! Watched it last night, story could have been better, and I didn't like the guy playing General Hux, but otherwise better than any of the prequels.
  11. Oh dear god, THAT one. No Supra deserved that treatment, glad to hear it's going to be returned to its former glory.

    Coffee makers

    I heartily recommend https://www.pactcoffee.com/ for anyone that drinks a lot of coffee.
  13. Indeed, and if you look at the other directors of the van hire business I think they're also directors or former directors of other oft mentioned car places in High Wycombe. It's the same few people involved.
  14. As Johnny says you only really need managed switches if you want to do any traffic prioritization, VLAN's, etc. Managed switches actually tend to have lower backplane/switch fabric throughput than unmanaged switches due to the management overhead.
  15. Can we all just agree that squaddies are twats?
  16. It's spelt Havard, but pronounced as Harrrvarrrd I believe.
  17. I've got the Fossil Supra watch in a drawer somewhere still (http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?637302-Supra-Fossil-Special-Edition-watch-FS-(361-500)). Not seen one of the 2002 ones come up for sale though.
  18. Blimey, that is a name from the past. How you doing Matt?
  19. This would be a perfect runaround for me... but I'm skint until probably February!
  20. Have people stopped saying we should shut the borders and blaming this all on refugees yet? All of the people identified and suspects arrested so far? French. ISIS/Da'esh aren't even particularly religious (http://www.thenation.com/article/what-i-discovered-from-interviewing-isis-prisoners/). Yes they'll vaguely claim that they're fighting for Islam, but it's bollocks, their intention is merely to incite more racial hatred and divide. Guess what you're doing by re-sharing all these posts on social media? Yup perpetuating their cause. Well done.
  21. Video marked as private now.
