  1. Very easy to do. In the faq section there is a guide to changing the valve stem seals. That covers everything you need
  2. I'd love to see you trying to get a road shut for a few mins
  3. The descent is one of the best for me. The suspense in that movie is fantastic.
  4. I didn't have time to do a proper orange....
  5. I did the bonnet vent mesh too but it looked totally out of place so just left it out.
  6. I think Dunk was referring to the "easy to get these wrong" part. IMO it's not at all easy to get these wrong if you have even the slightest idea of what you are doing. It's not as if the tolerances are going to be tight on this sort of work.
  7. I really don't fancy this at all. The other 2 were absolutely rubbish. I'll watch just about any horror but I can only imagine this being shock factor predictable rubbish.
  8. Na, Ed's a pro. He can switch hands without skipping a beat. And that's him tied up too!
  9. Adhesive heat shield matting... http://1.2.3.10/bmi/www.priracing.com/shopimages/products/normal/HeatShieldMatBIG.jpg
  10. Yeah, that's the stuff I just linked to. You arent looking for a "sleeve" then though are you
  11. I was thinking that there's nothing wrong with the other arm. Would look like an arm wrestler after a few weeks Or Nadal lol. Get well soon G!
  12. http://www.priracing.com/section.php/401/1/barrier-mat/043637731c3e4513bfe81dbe6ad7fc00 Few different mats there.
  13. Are you looking for something different from sleeving or do you plan on stitching it yourself?
  14. http://www.agriemach.com/default.php?cPath=89 That's another option. Pricey stuff eh lol.
  15. What you looking for done bud? I'm no wiz but I can certainly have a play.
  16. I like reading opinions on my car, both good and bad, but for the most part they will not really influence my styling choices. Of course it's always nice to have the ego massaged with nice comments about the car but I won't design or style any of my car to have that massage. With unlimited money the only asthetics I would change on my car would be the wheels and the introduction of a set of LED rear lights
  17. The little thing that you guys are talking about, I think, only happens when the page hasn't 100% loaded and you hit back. If you wait a few seconds till the page is fully loaded and then hit back it shouldn't ask you if you want to leave. I noticed it happening with me, but only when I was too quick on the trigger with the "back" button. It's a fantastic feature anyway, as is the auto-save feature. It's saved me a good few times. As for the little quirk that I'm noticing, it isn't really a problem. It doesn't put me out or anything I was just curious if it was a new feature to help bring the bandwidth down with all the "back" clicking and going in and out the same threads. By not refreshing after only a few seconds between links I bet it would fairly add up over time. Anyway, I thought I would try to explain better what I've been noticing so I've got an example of where it just happened.... In Dunk's thread here Dunk posted at 16.00. When I clicked "Subscriptions" this came up letting me know he had posted, as it always does, so I clicked on it to read the update. I then decided to reply.... which I did. Once I was finished and my comment was posted I again hit "Subscriptions" to see any recent updates (recent being in the last 10 seconds since I checked last lol). Now obviously the latest post in that thread would be mine at 16.03 but according to my Subscriptions it's still Dunk at 16.00. If I then click the link again to go into the thread, the thread shows that the last person to comment is Dunk. My comment isn't there. If I hit F5 to refresh the page it brings in my comment and any other fresh comments. The same happens with subscriptions, if I hit F5 on it it updates to show all the new replies. Without hitting refresh the Subscriptions won't update automatically for an undisclosed amount of time (I haven't checked how long it takes to update, I generally just hit F5 for updates). Hope that makes some sense lol.
  18. Pfft, who am I to talk... Tinted rear lights and angel eyes!! Who cares what other people think
  19. If it's hooked up the way you say it is it's very wrong. The only reason you would have anything going to the rear vac lines, as already mentioned, is to up the boost of the 1st turbo. There is no way for the lines back there to influence the overall boost pressure that the turbos make so it has been plumbed in wrong. There is a website (max-boost) that explains how to do the method mentioned, it is only an ADDITIONAL modification to get some extra boost below 4krpm. Perhaps the person who fitted it mistakenly read this as being the best method of getting more boost from both of the turbos. The best thing to do is remove all the bodge fittings that the previous owner has done and see where you end up. If you get around 0.7-0.8bar of boost when both are online then we're off to a good start. However, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of interest from you in following the advice I am giving you so I'm quite frankly not going to bother giving you any more on the subject. Good luck with it though
  20. I most certainly would Is it a laser machine you're getting them made up on?
  21. I never said you weren't bud. You mentioned earlier that they weren't available and that you were offering items that couldn't be bought. I was just saying that they could be bought, and with the lovely "Supra" logo to boot BTW the ones I made were 1mm too, little too thick though. Try to make them on a thinner gauge steel.
