  1. i use the tiscali tester http://speedcheck.ispconnect.co.uk/ also this one http://www.internetfrog.com/mypc/speedtest/ im on 10 meg and its amazing sometimes and pain in ass other times been slow.the internet frog wont read more than 4 meg for some reason.but the tiscalli tester reads fast connections.
  2. rang RSPCA up this morning would you belive a big city like LEEDS dont have a place.had to ring up bradford. well they were not intrested just said i have to ring council up. rang the council up they said its not there department and they said its the highways. they rang me back 1 hour later and said that if its on your property then its for you to deal with. but woman said if i put the box outside garden they will come pick it up in next 24 hours. its like it at work when you ask w/house people to do anything,all you get is "its not my job" im not a pet lover but would not like to see one in pain.

  4. i have 264/264 idle is great 500-600 seems to have loads of pull.im on stock jap turbos.i was put off 272`s as i got told they too lumpy and mainly for big power cars. 264/264 there is no problems at all. i got cams and cam gears as i was doing a cam belt change so thought i would get cams and gears too
  5. its wrapped up well and outside its snowing.will sort first thing monday.
  6. i felt bad picking it up with pitch fork and putting in a bag then in a box. will ring up monday morning.did not see a collar but was not looking.poor cat went under supra to die.was stiff as a board. i once was booting it going up slip road going onto motorway in supra and something ran out it went under car and made me cringe thinking i ran something over. i also ran over a baby pidgeon when i was doing a 3 point turn at work.i felt bad then as i did not see it.mate told me.
  7. you can get some real cheap cars on ebay.i sold my old astra for 50 quid with a months tax lol.250 quid sounds a lot for an old L reg.seems a lot of hasstle for you to go through
  8. thanks for that looks a great write up. i have a spare autobox in shed with no sump pan on.do you know if you can get replacement autobox pumps.mine went on mine.
  9. hi just found a dead black cat under my supra. only found it as i was doing a couple of bits and was going to put something under car.thought it was alive so was making some noise to get it from under car. i heard a cat had been knocked over a couple of days ago and must have ran off and got under car. rang council to come and remove it but they closed till monday. i got it out from under car and put it in a black bag and inside a box. will rspca come out to collect it.if it has been chipped will they check it and inform owners it has been killed. i dont like cats but dont like to see animals in pain.
  10. i did my polishing with a dremmel type tool and bench grinder.a lot of hard work when you not got right tools.good when you see the final product eyefi has his manifold and bits done in white heat coating looks good
  11. imagine how scary thats got to be doing 170+ in 1/4 mile.
  12. that sounds crap.you trust experts with your car and they fuck it up or bodge it. seems to be happning a lot round here.there is only a few people i would trust to do work on car.chris wilson,eyefi,and ian c. its such a shame u cant trust people nowadays.you would not trust toyota with your car. hope you get it sorted.
  13. my net went of for 30 mins all back working now.msn is ok

  15. what were parents doing letting kid out alone.did the guy on drugs get spiked or he take them off his own back.not funny more strange
  16. my new blitz bov failed.wont touch them again.gone back to twin stock bovs
  17. very sorry to hear of your loss.must be so terrible for you at this time. just wanted to say its such a terrible loss at such a young age. take care thoughts are with you
  18. have you tried DVD santa its a free trial my mate uses it to convert files. if you have limewire you can download full version on there look here no time limits it just puts a logo on your video. http://www.dvdsanta.com/ ps chris them videos are top quality.the red car was shifting along fast
  19. im just trying to make a mini workshop in shed.want to have a go at making a few bits.just bought a compaound miter saw off ebay for 22 quid plus 16 quid postage was a right bargain and looks a solid bit of kit. going to re board it all in mdf and hang all tools on wall.i will look a right pro lol. get another bench grinder and vice, got all electrics in. maybe even get wireless 10 meg broadband set up lol.the halfords socket set i bought was 70 quid.just got your 1/2" ratchet and other bits. what other car you going to get.something small and cheap for track days.
  20. such a shame to wreck some historic cars.bet it is pikey sumbags. what a waste.imagine going to find your collection in that state
  21. when i bought my car in 2001 the garage had a 6 speed kitted veilside supra with super advan racing 3 spoke wheels and i thought it was a great looking car.was too pricey for me and ended up with a standard facelift supra. now i hate the look of veilside kit.i have had a top secret bumper and have veilside copy skirts. would sooner go back to stock looking car and less ricer with big wheels. its funny how your tastes change over the years. think the standard look is great but then everyon likes different things. things like flip paint look so cheesy and max power.
  22. just been snowing in leeds.
  23. i got a halfords pro socket set and used loads of times.also bought lots of halfords pro spanners and breaker bars and ratchet spanners for tight areas.also little stubby ratchets for getting at back of turbos. they cheap enough and look well made. a mechanic down road has a massive snap on tool box full of tools.he reckons the toolbox alone was 6k. michael you doing lots of your own work now.
  24. i did mine.thought it was going to be real hard.just bought 2 heavy duty battery clamps and went sound.
  25. Nasty wheels and Graphics.i think silver and black go together well.is the car used in competition or is it just a normal road car.
