  1. when it happened I wondered myself as it started to sound like a bag of nails, (bit of an exaggeration but it wasn't purring wonderfully), and there was a wisp of smoke from between 1,2 and 3,4 (each side of the block), so i took it to a garage in ninfield and the gent who does the work knows his stuff. It's being stripped today and I'm off there tomorrow with my camera to get pics for myself. I'm a tad sad like that.
  2. I can play a didge and a jews harp ? (Not at the same time I might add)
  3. Oops badly written, it was the hard driving the first time that popped the hose, it's weakened the rad, that's popped on the a259 coming home from work, you CAN'T drive hard on the 259 at 7:30 at night. (Not advocating it by the way). I'm peed off that we thought the problem had been cleared, it ran fine for three days, then just gave up.
  4. I'm a maybe in the supra now, the cars in the garage, blown the head gasket, they're stripping it out tomorrow so I'll know better then. If it ain't back I'll come across in the Datsun Skytrain.
  5. That overheating problem where i had a hose pop, it did it agin, (the overheating), this time the rad bottom blew out and my head gaskets gone. Bummer, they'll be stripping it tomorrow so i'm just hoping it's a head skim and a gasket. Help my compression that's what I'm telling myself. It's had a blockage so when I drove it hard it's just taken the heat from the tubs straight to the engine with no cooling water backing the oil up. Sigh.... just hope it's not done anything worse.
  6. Hmm the post on the skyline forum has suggested that if it's in the car parks the security simply call the police to move people on. Might be a non-starter?
  7. http://www.skylineowners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=87174 Posted on the skyline forum, they are a good bunch if any of you want to pop on and see and I'm up for any of those dates
  8. I am and I will, I'll have to park in the middle, still have a gtst
  9. I live in eastbourne but made a skyline meet there, so now I'm back in a supra it'll be a tentative yes, the car's getting work on the cooling at the mo, and I work shifts, I'm in on the weekend for the next three weeks, (Last one will only be the sunday), so after that I'm in.
  10. Quite a shopping list on the side so I'm interested, just round the corner from me

  13. YOU GOT AN AUSTIN MINI!!! Hiya Slán, you could always get both
  14. Wrong way round, a scooter for work and the supra to play with, it's a belter
  15. I will do if it comes back, it'll be a close fit but different no doubt. It was probably somebody in the sports college.
  16. Well done, pics?? Of the car naturally, although i'm sure you're photogenic enough
  17. Rich at hampden has a white one, and his mate has a cracker, white, no rear spoiler and is well set up. I was up there the other night in mine, four supras outside his house and two skylines.
  18. Bl**dy typical, the day I put mine in the garage to sort my water leak and a siler veilside appears outside my house!
  19. I agree, it's stunning, and keep the rivets showing, I want it and don't have a cat in hells chance of affording it.
  20. heard the noise and saw it parking by the jag garage near the town hall. Sounded reeeallll good
  21. The Blues Brothers! All them american cars getting trashed AND good music.
  22. Sounds like my ideal woman, she can sort the car out AND get me cheap petrol
