  1. See I actually have something in my head, it was the storm that rang a bell for me though. I have it in my head that it was some really cheesy dance group with an even cheesier early CGI dodgy storm & high sea's video lol. I'll keep looking
  2. Is it that sort of music though? I can't really think of many proper R&B songs. Only really dance songs to be honest.
  3. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1bVoB73LFo
  4. You heard music on radio 1? When?? I swear all I hear on radio 1 is people who like the sound of their own voice. They absolutely never shut up to play any music.
  5. Might as well have not bothered with a description
  6. You forgot your flat cap and pipe bud. They say the memory is the first to go
  7. The technical section would beg to differ
  8. Fantastic mate, congratulations. Thoroughly deserved!
  9. Sounds to me like it's misfiring bud. I've had that before with dodgy coilpacks.
  10. Lol that's a peach! Bet it stung a bit though.
  11. Depends on the model but if you check here.... http://www.sellmymobile.com/search They go for between £50 & £250
  12. Personally I would probably strip down the turbo pipes, intercooler pipes etc. Give them all a good clean and quick inspection then put it all back together. A few of the stock rubbers between the turbo outlets are known to collapse. No harm in giving everything in that area a good going over to be sure that everything is as it should be.
  13. That was one of the main reasons for me too... previously. I guess I got lucky with T-Mobile as I don't seem to have any guff at all The original galaxy was meant to be a bit bloated from Samsung but they seem to have really toned it down.
  14. Throw a 35A in there and see if that pops
  15. I wouldn't bother with it to be honest. I've rooted every HTC I've had prior to the Galaxy but I honestly haven't found any reason to do it with the SII. The main reason for me rooting was so that I could play with wifi (Ie tethering etc) but it's all built in so there's really no need. It's lightening quick so other than a "look how many clocks my CPU can get" flash there really is no point IMO.
  16. Is the belt definitely the correct one? It might just have been me but even with the tensioner off I had a hell of a time getting my belt on due to just how tight a fit it was when "loose". Or is there something wrong at my end? All I did was put the belt on, give the pulley a small turn to put as much tension on the inlet side as I saw fit and then mated up the tensioner before pulling the allen key.
  17. The tensioner puts a silly strain on the timing belt if it isn't fitted correctly. The correct way to do it is to put the tensioner in a press and align up the holes so that you an fit a 1mm or 1.5mm allen key through them. You then take the pressure off and fit the tensioner in place. Once it's in and secured you pull the allen key out and the correct pressure will be put on the belt. It takes a lot more force to compress the tensioner than it does to hold it in place, if you screw the tensioner in without pre-loading it you will over strain the timing belt.
  18. Are you fitting the tensioner via the manual? As in putting an allen key in it to pre-tension it so that the belt isn't getting the force?
  19. Where is it jumping the teeth? Is it down at the pulley it's jumping or is it the cams? One or both?
  20. Unreal bud. What did the other owner have to say?
  21. Depends how you feel about oil all over your plugs?
  22. If the jspec car is prefacelift then it's entirely plug and play. Your friend will lose the self levelling though as that's uk spec only.
