Matthew.

I feel your pain!!

:(:(:(:(:(

Hi Tonb,

Will keep my eyes open for you next time i'm in the big smoke!!

We'll done, for not giving the council any more money then the theives take already.

You are a model citizen:lol:

I will second Matt:cool:

Fiat Marea drivers are the worst speeders in Britain.

My dad has one!!:lol:

I've driven , been driven and owned quite a few fast cars.

The fastest I've been was 170mph in a Lotus Carlton, superbly underated car.

The quickest not in top speed but just aceleration was a 2.0 16v Turbo Vauxhall Nova, that scared the life out of me. Witnessed it do the 1/4 mile in 13.37s at Crail, that would leave a Diablo for dead.

but I always keep the dream alive that one day there will be some thing sitting in the drive called a R34 Skyline:cool:

Steve, it is not working at all now.

It seems to be putting a space between the M&G but it's not in the edit bit.

None at all, the refectors are still the same, it is only the surround that is painted.

Are you at home Stitcher?

It's almost impossible to work out drive train loss as every car has a different set up.

The only way you can find out is to have a go on a rolling road.

I split a set of original and got the insides sprayed and removed the orange strip from the inside. Then painted the bulbs orange. See the how to posted by Matt.

Steve, I can't seem to get the second image up, can you help out?

Thanks

Graeme

Man, aren't kids nowadays learning to use computers so young. Maybe something to do with the water up here!

Have fun and I hope you get to face the right way soon.

:cool:

Is it possible to supply this ECU to be fitted by someone else as you guy's are at the other end of the country??

Steve, thanks for the fun!!

Ran Pi lowering springs in my Seat Ibiza, they are very good quality, but do tend to be a bit softer than most. This does give a better ride but can mean you hit the bump stops more often.

Pringles :yes::yes:

Loads of them!

Bad News guy's I can't come down:mad:

Have a great time and if there are any really good bargains buy 2 and sell one on here:lol:

Give Jackie Degg a kiss from me:cool:

Hope you all have a great time and I'm sorry I will not be able to come to collect my prize.

Steve, will the cups be returned and presented to somone else the next year??

The dream has begun!!

Right Lady’s and Gentlemen, we all know how we can as a group influence changes, so lets see if we can help the people who decide things in Japan make the next gen IS what we want!

List below what model spec's you want your next IS to be, and give a sensible amount you would pay for this spec. If we hope hard enough they might listen.

:yes:

What you have to do is practice holding the rear end out just that little bit longer, It makes them think you did it on purpose as apposed to by accident!!

Hi Brn7y, I guess that you suffered the same problems as I did over crimbo and new year (that very bad snow storm on 28th Dec) - when it took me 4 hours to get home ....

I couldn't move the Lex for 10 days (despite digging it out, Snow button engaged etc) .... the dash kept telling me the wheels were spinning ..... I BLIMMIN KNEW THAT!!!! :flaming:

I missed all the snow at Christmas, was in Africa. I did however get my ear bent about the fact she had to walk to work and get the 17 year old kid across the street to park the car in the garage. He was happy enough to get a drive of the Lex.

Aberdeen..........we are building up numbers, now remember Matt, you did promise to stop classing Birmingham as Northern once we had more people!!

tonb, I agree with you on the 4x4 as in the winter you might as well leave the car in the garage as you won't get out of your drive anyway!

They have produced a IS300 Sportcross 4x4, just have to see if they tranfer it to the saloon, it would be no use on the 200's engine though as drive train loss would mean you would have your ***** kicked by Lada's!

GIVE US TURBO SCOOBY BEATER!!!!!!!!!!!
