  1. Correct. Any you could get exactly the same level of stupid people here in the UK too so lets not assume it is just the USA with these type of folks. Plus, i wonder how many good answers were deleted before they got enough dumb ones?

     

    Well of course , Dont take it i am assuming that americans are dumb, its like saying the french smell of Bo, thats why I put dont take it the wrong way, I found it amusing, the fact its a tv show makes it better.

  2. why dont you cut out your ignition and re wire it into the midle glove box where your hand brake is so you have your keys hidden away ( kinda like a sarb), smooth off where the ignition used to be and place a push start button in the cig socket.

     

    Could that be done? if so i want it done :D

  3. I was bored tonight so I started fishing through my old vinyl collection and found the first Iron maiden album which is signed by Paul Di'anno, I was wondering would this fetch allot of money at auction, do you think i should ebay it or keep it?

     

    Any Maiden fans know the value of something like this ?

  5. He's a friend who comes in the pub knows my dad he's good like, he has been a mechanic for 36 years, he does work for me at a good price, or i go to shineybits auto's, who do use and what would they charge to fit springs?

     

    Lew.

  6. Today when picking my car up I ask why he wont fit second hand springs he told me they had a aprentice who had a second hand spring on a compressor well the spring snaped and as a result it blew the apretices lower jaw off! so he refuses to fit them.

    I thought oh well fair enought I see your point, so thats got me thinking should i just buy a new set, is it risky buying second hand ones, allthough He did say visually they may look fine but your car is well over a tone imadgin it snaped while driving

     

    so its put be off buying second hand ones but whats the chances of dodgy springs and can they be checked?

     

    Lew.

  7. Today I got a letter for jury service, however it is dated 9th June but I am on holiday for the 1st until 15th of June, can I be excused ? I have heard they are really strict about it I.e. only excusable if pregnant, seroius illness, studing and got exams.

     

    anyone??

     

     

    Lew.

  8. If i can get a hold of some second hand lowering springs that are mint is it still ok to fit them, my mechanic refuses to fit second hand lowering springs? should i buy new ones, just i do see alot on here go for sale?

  9. Heres some old wingless pic's of my supra, I think it gives the car a ,more executive, professional and muscle car look, with a spoiler I think the spoiler is too big.

    As much as i love the supra and yes it came out the factory with a spoiler and I do think you should keep a jap car looking Jap, But I do think some times, not all the time that it looks like it should be on http://www.barryboys.co.uk
