  1. Sorry peolple, we are still waiting fro the carbon fibre parts. We have been promised them every week for the last month This is basically how the systems will be; The NA model has a carbon fibre pipe from the engine to the filter, and a carbon fibre cold air scoop. The SC model has a silicone pipe from the compressor to the air filter, and a carbon fibre cold air scoop. In my humble (and unbiased :D) opinion, these are significantly better that anything else currently available. Pictures will be available soon (promise ) Mark :)
  2. I stole this form Tony Parson latest tome ; Man & Wife. A bloke is sitting on a crammed full aeroplane waiting to take off, and the only seat left empty on the plane is next to him. He sees a 100% 10 out of 10 gorgeous babe walking down the aisle who comes and sits next to him. Obviously he starts to chat her up Him : So how come you're travelling today? Her : Actually I going to the s*x Exhibition - In fact I lecture on the misconceptions of human sexual nature. Him; Oh really? What does that mean? Her; Well, take for example the legend that black men are more well endowed in the manhood department that other men. In fact that is not correct, the most well endowed nationality is actually the Native American Indian. And take for example the legend that the Italian male is the most attentive and fulfilling lover. In fact that is incorrect, because it is actually the Greek male that is best equiped to give unbridled pleasure to his partner. Any way, I don't know why I'm telling you all this - I don't even know your name. Him; Just call me Tonto Papadopoulos :D
  3. Who knows if its true but the mail had a story about the flat purchase business by the Blairs the other day. It mentioned how Mrs Blaire visits someone who's into chanelling, spiritualism, crystals and stuff for advice. If she's not a charleton then the spirits she'll be contacting will be demons. G.o.d has said in the bible he doesn't allow contact with the dead and has extremely harsh words about anyone who tries. (Funny I thought Mrs Blaire was a catholic...) Apparently at times of crisis she's been known to fax 10 pages of questions to her spiritual guru for advice. It couldn't be true though - the devil would want to influence society for the worse, eg destroy the protection of the family, suppress the truth of the Christian religion, make drug use more acceptable and get people hooked etc.... Oh dear!
  4. Nooooooooooo more - that's enough - i wish I hadn't started this :)
  5. I am going to be Prime Minister when I grow up, and here's what's going to happen; 1) Free beer 2) An end to the TV monopoly of footy - and pay to view 3) All ugly girls rounded up and incarcerated (I will of course offer them the chance of redemption through cosmetic surgery) 4) All current politicians hung for treason 5) A reversal of current European policies, and an enforcement of a true free market. 6) All illegal immigrants removed, and the armed services will enforce our national boundaries. 7) All legal immigrants that can be of use to our economy will recieve no state aid, but will be offered gainful employment. 8) Drug dealers (especially the illegal immigrant variety) will be tortured and then jailed for life without parole. 9) Rapists and kiddie fiddlers will be castrated 10) The speed limit will be revoked on major roads under the correct conditions, but will be 20mph around shools. The right to drive will be earned and can be revoked irevocably for drink driving, driving without insurance, or getting in my way. 11) Any kind of colour discrimination wil be illegal. 12) All school leavers will be given training in useful trade skills. 13) I will live in a nice big house and drive a 360 Modena paid for by you mugs :) I am a reasonable person, so I will consider any other suggestions Mark :)
  6. We try to - but it is VERY expensive :o
  7. Hello Eddie There is no excuse for abuse of any kind just because of different abilities or colour. There is always going to be ignorance and intolerance of other peoples way of life or colour, and I personally believe that there is more discrimination against white people than non whites in the country. And there is without doubt less tolerance of our ways by Muslims than the other way around. England has always relied on immigrants to provide the skills and labour that we need, and that should be encouraged in my view. I can understand why some people may look unkindly on you because of your colour because there is a growing resentment about what is happening in this country. To vilify someone for the colour is pure ignorance. Personally I do not care what colour a person is, it's the attitude that counts. Your comment regarding the colour of our leaders does not have a good president. I am struggling to think of a decent Asian or African country that is not rife with corruption and poverty by our standards. I am convinced that my comments about expoitation are correct. I do not think that if I were an immigrant to anyone of the countries that these people come from, that I would be given any of the opportunities that these people have been given. I presume you have a better standard here than if you were still in India. When Britain had the empire, they ruled without imposing their religion or ideals - that is why it was relatively successful. I am friendy with a lot of Asian people, and most of them can't get over the history of what happened a few hundred years ago, and still hate us for it. What my great great great grandfather or whatever did, is nothing to do with me so I am not going to appologise for it. What is required is mutual understanding of what needs to be done to make the world better for us today and tomorrow for our children. Mark :)
  8. The S2000 is a fine car. Tachbrook Honda in Birmingham are selling brand new S2000's fully loaded with our uprated parts on it without affecting the warranty. The parts they are loaded with are ; HKS exhaust system, HKS racing manifold, HKS racing suction induction. It's a shame they don't fit the suspension or engine management because they are very good. Mark :)
  9. The parts that are currently available are ; HKS Super Powerflow induction HKS Iridium plugs HKS Twin Power ignition amplifier HKS FCON S engine management Toda flywheel and clutch Toda camshafts Mugen exhaust system Mugen exhaust manifold Mugen ecu Mugen camshafts Mugen strut braces Mugen suspension Mugen also offer a lot of race orientated parts. Hope this helps Mark :)
  10. I suppose one bad pun deserves another one or three I'll get me coat then
  11. We have converted quite a few of these this year - I think they are really good :) A couple of Honda dealers are buying our parts to put them on brand new cars without affecting the warranty! Mark :)
  12. At the moment the cheapest we can do the compressor kits for is £2500 plus as part of a group purchase or £3000 as a one off purchase. Mark :)
  13. I think you are right up to a point Mathew. Love Thy Neighbour was garbage and an embarassment, but I think the context is important. For example in that programme it was the white guy that was shown to be the idiot. The problem nowadays is that some of the immigrant popluation exploit the weakness that we now have, that has been implimented by the narrow minded who believe themselves to be broad minded. The exploiters do not give a **** about the UK or the indiginous population. They are only interested in bringing us down to their level, and preferably converting us to their religion - by violent means if necessary. It's gone too far now - there's no going back
  14. Maybe he's got a chip on his shoulder :D Bad joke - sorry! (for those that don't know, he works in a fish & chip shop)
  15. In my view, there should not be any language that could cause offense to anyone. As I have a handicapped member of family, I do get annoyed when I hear offensive remarks. Most people do not stop to think what it must be like for the handicapped person. I do not agree with the so called need for PC in racial matters. You should be judged by your ability and attitude - not by your colour. There is an enormous amount of positive discrimination against white people in local government - and that is a fact
  16. What's the problem? We have these on the shelf! I am afraid that there are so many suppliers of these parts nowadays, most of whome are one man bands working in their spare time from their bedrooms etc, that it gives the established firms a rough ride. There are also plenty of inecperienced people that suddenly become tuning experts overnight. I can give you plenty of examples, of our customers who suddenly become our competitors. The guy that owns Option Motorsport was a customer of ours, he has no engineering background but suddenly is an expert. The guy that owns Torque IC was an accountant last year and was our customer, suddenly he is an expert. There should be laws against it but sadly there isn't Rant over
  17. I think we will need the extra heavy duty Carlos Fandango version for the Monster :o

  19. There are three types ; 1) Basic - just gives you on and off. 2) Adjustable - gives you adjustable slip 3) Professional - gives you adjustable slip and launch control The basic system normally sells for £495 plus vat, the adjustable system normally sells for £695 plus vat and the professional system normally sells for £895 plus vat. Most of you will want the basic or adjustable system. If we can get 5 or more people we can get the price right down, and we can also do a better deal on the labour. These really come into their own now that the weather is not so good.
  20. Anyone interested in a group purchase of Race Logic Traction control systems? I think most people are aware of the pitfalls of the factory TC system, and tend to turn them off. The RLTC will be a revelation to anyone that hasn't used this system before, as full power drifting as well as safer driving is possible. As fas as I know, Simonskippy is the only is200 owner to have a system, but if we can get a group together we will be able to get the price down. Please let me know Mark :)
  21. If you want to have a scavenge around our dusbin, you will probably find some :)
  22. I don't think the resale values will be hit. The (standard) is200 maybe painfully underpowered but is still a quality car and in my view is considerably better than it's competition. Through no choice of my own I have been driving a new C230 Kompressor these last few days - what a dog - give me a Lex anyday - no contest.
