  1. Has anyone else tried to do this online? I'm trying to do mine, but I can't figure out how to get it to work. You can't just pay the fee and get a new licence, you have to set up an account. If I try and set one up, it says I already have one, but I have no idea what it is, and it states if you don't know the user or password then you can't use the service.
  2. I'm into metal, but I think by the mid 90's it was done.
  3. Why does it have to be an aircraft with turbofan engines? Surely it would have made much more sense to use an aircraft with no propulsion system of its own like a glider?
  4. Is this a test of abstracting the information down rather than actually figuring out the answer? What I mean is, 90% of the words that make up the question aren't actually relevant. Why is the birth and death year of John Tyndall, his work experience and where he liked to go on holiday germane to the actual question? Although with the copyright being 2002, it seems that this question has been around for a while.
  5. What? I'm finding it hard to type response that isn't filled with certain four letter words.
  6. Whenever I'm feeling depressed I read this thread, it always cheers me up.
  7. So where can I get OEM skirts and spats if not from Toyota or Grams Styling? Are there no other companies that make like for like body parts?
  8. Not sure why people are criticising Hamilton for his tactics, that was literally all he could apart from try and run Rosberg off the track. Hamilton could have lapped everyone 10 times, but it would all be for nothing if Rosberg still finished second. I think Hamilton lost the championship at Suzuka, not Sepang. After Suzuka all Rosberg had to do was finish second to Hamilton.
  9. I have been wanting to replace my skirts and spats with new ones, I was looking at the ones that Grams Styling do, but given the recent thread regarding their products I don't think I will be bothering. Also they said their OEM spats won't fit my Supra, so I would have to have them cut anyway. Does anyone know of any other reputable copies? Also I have been wanting to have my car dyno tested (didn't want to make another thread though). Are there any decent ones in the Midlands?
  10. Oh. I was looking for some replacements on some other websites, but they don't state whether they are pre-facelift or facelift, so I thought they might have been the same.
  11. Are these the same as the facelift spats?
  12. Well I'm not sure what else to say, I'm not technically minded so I can't really give any detailed information, I can only try and describe what is happening.
  13. Thank you I will try that, the problem is it is rare I use a lot of throttle, and even then it doesn't seem to happen all the time. Something else I have noticed, is when starting the car from hot the idle speed is very low like it is about to stall, it is fine when starting from cold. Not sure if the two things are related?
  14. Well it had its MOT last month and there was no problem with the emissions, so I assume both catalytic converters are still fitted?
  15. Can fuel cut occur on cars that have not been modified? I've been thinking of taking my car somewhere for it to be checked, but I'm not sure where. I am in the East Midlands but I am not aware of any specialists around here. I am not technically minded at all so there is no way I would be confident checking anything.
  16. Again, these are sarcastic statements, but people don't seem to realise.
  17. Sorry yes it is a turbo model. The car has no modifications I am aware of. There is a boost gauge in the dash, but I'm not sure how to read it. The markings show + 0 - from top to bottom, but I don't know what the position of the needle means at each mark? When the car loses power the needle doesn't suddenly drop (if that would mean a boost problem?). I wouldn't describe it as severe as like hitting a wall, the car just stops accelerating and is then very slow at picking up speed.
  18. This is something weird I've noticed recently, and it only seems to be when overtaking for some reason. When accelerating to overtake, the car completely dies like I've taken my foot off the throttle. It doesn't happen all the time so I'm not sure what the problem could be? A boost leak maybe?
  19. Forgive the next stupid question then. If the plastic skirt is rubbing the paint off the metal, that means the skirt is moving? So how does the skirt move when it has like 20 fixings?
  20. Forgive my stupidity, but how exactly does plastic/fibreglass rust?
  21. I'm also pretty sure eBay prohibits the selling of currency still in circulation, so who knows, I guess people just do whatever they want now.
  22. I thought that selling any form of currency that is still in circulation for more than it's actual value was illegal?
