  1. I've been thinking about going full ridox for a while and this has just cemented my plans! Looks awesome!
  2. Cant believe this actually made it out the garage......
  3. Definately to applecross over the mountain. Also when you're heading north on the A82, after you see signs for Kinghouse you'll see a wee sign saying Glen Etive (left turn heading north). Follow that for 5-10miles (cant remember) and you'll find the spot they took the skyfall photos at! [ATTACH=CONFIG]205525[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]205526[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]205527[/ATTACH]
  4. Starting looking at this again today, anything that may kill all the power inside the car but still allow the fuel pump head lights etc? All the fuses inside the car are fine
  5. Firstly the Supra hasn't moved in about 2 months but I first noticed this around 3 weeks ago. - Left the car battery in the Supra and it died so I took it out to trickle charge to get it back up and going. At the time the central locking didnt work and i believe it turned over in the usual dead battery manor. - Re-charged the battery and a week later plugged in to find no indication of the battery going (Alarm usually goes off when it is connected) - Car doesn't turn over but it sounds like the starter engages. No interior lights work, dash lights, wipers etc however the headlights turn on just fine. - I know the battery is fine as i've tried it with 4 different good ones and same result each time. - A friend was round had a look and we got the car running by using a power probe on the starter so she'll run when she gets power by the looks of it. - i've checked all the fuses and they seem to be fine as are the relays. - I'm thinking that the alarm has decided it doesn't want to work anymore but hoping that's not the case and i've missed something obvious. Any other thoughts or have seen this problem before?
  6. Windy gun FTW and they should be ok with a normal 1/2" ratchet but more than likely a small 12" breaker bar will do the job. Don't put them back on with the breaker bar, ratchet tight tight is fine
  7. Oh and I concur with the advice of electronic ignition, WAY better that the points/condenser.
  8. Lovely to see another 240z owner on here and cough cough i've got some original chrome bumpers that i'd let go for the right price
  9. Great power figure but the difference between wheel and fly looks too close to me. Hows the W58 hold up at that power?
  10. THats the 1.5 tonne but i mean the sling you're using. Make it smaller so it lifts higher.
  11. George, Shorten the slings and you'll get it on the crane for sure. I took out a civic engine 2 weeks ago and was up at this height to get over the front panel
  12. Dont tell Fraser Gordon that or it'll go to his head
  13. Dron, go rear bumperless and we can make wild mounts from the rear crash bar bolt holes. You know its right.

    Offset Help

    I run 9.5 et35 up front very low with no roll and it scuffs only occasionally. 10 et35 on the back with a roll and no scuffs at all. 255/35 up front and 285/35 at the back. If you want a nicer flusher fit i'd go with this setup as it works really well.
  15. I was round at castlepark yesterday and didnt see it bud. Have they got another place?
  16. poorboys glaze is good! But Alans glaze is better IMO
  17. They look incredible tho Next you'll be saying RWB Porches are terrible
  18. Just find a place with an old out building They make great garages
  19. You don't need to remove the top wishbone, un-do the anti roll bar drop link and use a LARGE lever to push the wishbone down and remove over the top. Fitted a few sets of Supra coilovers (amongst other cars) this way and had no issues.
  20. Already chopped it up and fitted it to a Civic
