  1. So effectively its reduced wheel hop rather than totaly preventing it? Would of thought with a solid mount to the chassis it wouldnt move verticaly as much. Would a solid mount to the subframe not help and leave some give with the modified ear mounts?
  2. Could well be but they will get a shock when they find out it costs more than £150
  3. Right ive got a question, which suspension arm's actualy contain spherical bearings? Is it just the upper wishbones or is it lower ones aswel?
  4. So this is still for sale.... about a month ago every NA owner wanted a cheap manifold and now suddenly they have all disappeared

    Texas mile!

    Damn i was about to post that up Very eventful event this year...
  6. Ah i think i know what you mean now J, you mean the flat bit which sits against the body.
  7. Oh comeon post up So am i right in saying you have a solid inner piece or?
  8. Surely there's pic's? Nice work J, very creative i must say!
  9. Well i had good luck with my last dog with the soft toy route. Basicly replacing my arm with something else but she knows not to bite, she is suprisingly obedient and knows when she has done wrong.
  10. Its a good thing i saw this thread when i did Happy birthday H
  11. I know what you mean mate, when she looks at you stood up you just dont know whats going on in her head, very proud dog I think its down to there dark face and eyes but believe me she is a big softy and well behaved which is not what i was expecting although she does play hard and tend to get bitey but i just push her soft toy in her trap and she's happy
  12. Cheers guys As said she is a fantastic dog. I'm well aware of the breeds background and believe me when I read the file I was put off. Personally I think there was a lot of exaggeration going on as she is very calm and tame in the house. The only thing I need to address is here social skills due to her poor upbringing. Not really socialised so she gets very wary of her surroundings and should one come to close she gets upset and backs away barking. Its going to take some time but I'm confident she will become a lot calmer and comfortable on her walks and er surroundings. Its all new to her having spend most of her life at a rescue centre.
  13. Dude picture FAR to big! I didnt know your supra had a glitter paint job
  14. I totaly disagree, she is a great companion and she know's her position in the household. I put it down to the owners either being to soft with them or not training them correctly. You cant show weakness with this kind of dog or they will take advantage of you.
  15. Thanks for the comments When i originaly read her file she sounded like a viscous killing machine, wasnt convinced of it and i was right although she is very unhappy when strangers come knocking, i put this down to lack of socialising at a young age. She does manage to get her self in a bit of a state when people invade her personal space but it will pass in time i hope
  16. Ill take PM details. Cheers
  17. Ever since having to deal with yet another dog dying of illness this year and after much thought and a quiet house i figured it was time for a new one so here she is http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs813.snc4/69314_485538277213_584057213_7089525_5271908_n.jpg http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs774.snc4/67403_486034352213_584057213_7095683_1322519_n.jpg http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/hs460.ash2/73307_486448572213_584057213_7100652_1018283_n.jpg http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs904.snc4/71709_486448722213_584057213_7100655_5126775_n.jpg Not the best pics but they will do for now She is called Tia, shes an akita, 16 month old, beautiful looking dog, and very well tempered now that she has settled down. Admittingly it hasnt been a walk in the park getting her settled in. I picked her up from the dogs trust in liverpool, shes been there a long time and her back story isnt the best but she is settling in nicely now, still very nervous of her new surroundings but im sure it will pass.
  18. Here's something you wont see everyday, N1 turbos on a 2J Very interesting concept. Be a nice step up from stock twins
  19. Yup its a hell of a list, tbh the rest could be custom made although the merge section would be something id prefer to have.
  20. Im still trying to find a pair of used HKS TT manifolds and coming up short, cheapest ive found is about £1800 just for the manifolds
  21. Fair shout Im not against a big power build, hell if i had the money id be on a t6 and billet 48-88. Monkey see monkey do. Just seems to me no one matches there cams to there actual goals these days, more like 'they make the most power ill have those'. Yes i know before you say it i am a cock
  22. Must be going for huge power with that spec. What ever happened to people being sensible or has everyone been brain washed by the yanks
