I work in Church Crookham which is in line with the runway. This week I saw planes do things I never thought they could! I was outside today to see a four engined fighter rocket past on full afterburner, apparently all the light fittings in the factory shook! Do any Jap tuning companies do afterburners for Soops....cos if they do, I want one:d

Other sports cars don`t seem too keen to race me, I think there`s a bit of mutual respect going on. What I get alot of is 1 point zero litre nippers who will risk life and limb to blast past. This used to really wind me up, but now I just shake my head and laugh!

Let my other half loose in my 140 lepton+ supra.......NO WAY. She scares me when she loses control of our 2 lepton qualcast:d

I didn`t have any problems at the weekend, but have always experienced temp gauge climbing to mid way round very quickly (five minutes from cold) and cooling down time really long. Checked coolant level several times and all is well. Is this normal or do we have a problem Houston??

I`ve got the Alpine 9857R in mine and I love it. Apparently Alpine were the first head unit manufacturer to integrate with the I Pod and although many head units are now I Pod friendly, not all display the same number of letters for the track, artist etc...Some only show the first five letters, which I guess would be frustrating at times.

These buttons were only fitted to UK cars and were to be pressed if you encountered a police radar trap at illegal velocities. The button detonates exploding bolts at the rear of the cat, detatching the exhaust, which then dissintegrates forming a cloud of exhaust `chaff` to fool enemy radar.............Wish it was true `cause I hate my Mines pipe so much:eyebrows:

I`ve been checking this thread daily for news of improvement, this is so awful. I really thought things were getting better for the lad. R.I.P Karl, wish I had met you as you sounded like one of life`s good guys. My warmest thoughts go out to his family and all who knew him.[sAD][/sAD]

Thanks for that, I cleared off more road grime to find the words `Mines Motorsport Division` I take it I will have to refit the cats for mot`s once a year?

Just finished adjusting the camber angle and toe settings in 35°! It is now correct at -0.5° camber. I have made a toe in/out gauge and bought a caster/camber tool. If anyone would like to use them just give me a shout:thanks:

If it sounded a bit on the quiet side it was me. I gave you a quick wave but you might have missed it. Looked nice and shiny mate![COOL][/COOL]

I have a 95 j-spec gz auto tt which has been fitted with a Jasma?? cat back stainless pipe. It was fine until I saw and heard you all at the pod last sunday! I need a noisy nasty pipe in stainless steel. I must add that the car has got a bilstien lowering kit fitted and I don`t want to damage my first mod of many. So, what do I need and where do I get it?

Shiny red supra going past Farnborough Business Park at 4.10pm. I was in weekend mode and only saw you at the last minute!

I keep checking this thread in the hope that there will be some improvement in Karl`s condition, I`ve not long joined and don`t know Karl at all. I would like to thank Karl`s sister Emma for relaying news of him in what must be a terrible time for her and her family and Geordie Steve for posting this information for us all, well done to the pair of you! Hang on in there Karl, I`m praying for you.

I can`t beleive I`m reading all of this after having a brilliant time at Santa Pod yesterday. I feel guilty that while I was having such fun, a fellow member was and still is fighting for his life! My thoughts go out to this young lad and his family. Thank God that there are still people that will stop and help others in trouble.

Silver UK? Supra near Halfrauds in Woking 5pm. Seen it there a few times now.

Thanks one and all. I have just removed both front wheels and I think Merityre man speak with fork tongue!! Niether front or rear adjusters are out to the max and appear to be pretty much at mid way round. Also, none of the nuts have any shiny marks on them and appear to have been untouched.

Years and years ago when I was about 11 I desperately wanted some `cow horn` handlebars for my bike. My Dad was dead against the idea and wouldn`t take me to buy some, so I purchased some on the sly from a friend at school. I rode round to his house where we fitted said handlebars and I set off home all chuffed with my latest custom accessory. Riding down my road I notice Dad outside the house messing about with the car and I thought `I`ll show him, I`ll whiz past him without holding on to the handlebars`I shot past him, arms folded, to be faced with two gate posts which were narrower than the handlebars! The bike stopped instantly, I went through the air as gracefully as a sack of spuds and slid face first along the sharp concrete path for what seeemed like an eternity. I ground the skin off of my chin, palms, elbows and knees, all of which were scrubbed free of dirt by Mum a little while later! To add insult to injury I was made to help Dad repair the brick built gate post that had cracked during the incident!!!

Help!! I have just looked at my front tyres and found both to be worn down to the rienforcement on the inside. I had all four wheels aligned but the guy said that the camber angle was out (-1.5 degrees) on both sides and it cannot be adjusted. Is there anything I can do / fit to fix this?
