  1. Please close the account then I have no use for forums that conduct themselves in this way, he is a pratt and you are a pratt for supporting his post and comments. Now dont play ***, this site is just a badly scripted php website. now you go enjoy my friend, I will do what I enjoy like cars and tuning and spending money.
  2. Have to have the last word my friend? "You obviously don't know me, and what I do for a living" Likewise, and you certainly dont look after people like me on the street as you suggest, and that is a fact enjoy your pizza sonny
  3. Posting about peadophiles ? - is this another personal opinion about MJ ? or have you heard the verdict before everyone else ...... ? Yes, this is the real world ..... and if you don't want to read the garbage, the don't read the thread... and don't post the reply, it's not hard is it. As a moderator, I am fully aware of MY responsibilities thank you, and I don't need someone who has only joined a few days ago to tell me how to do my job. ← I have been on forums from many years the fact I joined this one a few days ago is irrelevant, you made a statement and I replied, and if you read my original post, I requested it put to bed. verdict ? dont be a **** all your life sunshine Your post has had many hits I grant but less than 1% response come on !!! Your comments are that of an immature teenager, probably with no children, as I doubt you would had posted the thread, living with parents, and when you actually grow up in around 30 years time, reflect on this moment and you will realise that I am correct in my observations, now I suggest you leave it at that
  4. minted_aye, This is a car forum yes, however we are all also like one big family here on LOC, and incase you didn't notice, the post is in the "Non Car General Char" forum, so it does what it says on the tin ........... and it's not about cars. Everyone has a different opinion, and it's good to share those opinions with others ...... hence the popularity of this, and also other non car related threads. Regards, ← Ist I don’t like patronising statements, I am well aware of the post and its section, judging from some of the comments I read here I would strongly suggest that your statement “we are all one big family” totally inaccurate, most comments I see are offensive to others or persons leaving replies on subjects the know nothing about but will argue the toss in any case because they are always right. So basically posting treads about paedophiles is okay because you say it’s in a non car forum? What will it be next racism? Terrorist supporters? Religion? Come on get a life this is the real world I am afraid and I personally don’t want to be reading any garbage. Certain subjects should be avoided and that’s the job for moderators, and you are actually backing this garbage I find diabolical. I am all for healthy chit chat but I draw the line at pathetic drool okay……………… If this is what your forums is about you can stick in your arse my friend end quote”
  5. I had a similar situation some years ago when I was getting out of my car and someone hit my door, the person blamed me for opening the door onto their car, my insurance company was going to settle with me at fault, anyway I stuck to my guns and 2 years later it went to court and I won 100% with compensation being awarded. Stick to your story, do not try to judge the law nothing is black and white and forget the Highway Code it has no real relevants here, as it’s not a criminal offence. I was clearly not to blame at the time looking at the Highway Code but it made no difference, THE INSURANCE COMPANYS LOOK FOR BLAME NOT LOGIC Don’t deal with the other party directly let the insurance company sort it out. Ensure you take pictures of your car as it stands at present, Have you modified the car? If so did you tell them?
  6. Your kids were sleeping in bed with an adult? He is guilty, JUST because he has some sort of superstar does not detract from the fact, he is a serial child molester. A lot of the kids have been left there more to do with the parents meeting MJ I think. If he was not a celebrity I doubt they would had thought about Fancy lawyers up until now have kept him from prison, just look at OJ From what I have read and seen, the only persons supporting him are his fan base and a lot of them are sitting on the fence. Now one here I doubt knows him personally, but the evidence is quite clear he did have kids in his bed amongst other things. Even his last set of lawyers. And I agree with the other post who gives a toss, LOCK HIM UP AND THROW AWAY THE KEY And about time to put this post to bed, I though this forum was about cars?
  7. To be honest I ran a wrx import running 320 bhp for a 5 months, with optimax and millers octane boost = 100 ron and I could not tell the difference whatsoever, in the end ran optimax every 4 th full up the rest of the time it was tescos I am afraid. Also a 400bhp skyline on Sainsbury’s fuel for 4 months Remember marketing is a clever thing. Most ecu’s can alter to accommodate different fuel types despite what you are told; the parameters are wider than you think Shell optimax has caused running problems in certain cars with hesitation poor starting etc etc and it’s not for everyone, 98 Ron over 95 Ron I doubt it could be measured effectively, a lot of its psychological Turbo car are more prone to detonation with lower octane fuel with high boost but as I said I noticed no problem whatsoever and the skyline is running fine and pulling strong.
  8. Hi All I am looking to increase the power slightly on this car over the coming months, so am after advice as well as being pointed in the right direction; I am well versed in the performance world having owned m3, m5, xkr etc etc and currently have a r33 gtr vspec 400bhp + skyline which is sold and going this week. I am looking for exhaust probably titanium cat back, springs, not interested in supercharger or nos conversions, maybe a remap of the ecu if possible, 20" wheels I will get round to and probably a good body kit that complements the car rather than fast & furious
  9. I read a report many years ago which clearly stated that static electricity can dissipate through the tyres and as someone one already mentioned the rubber strips with the pointing arrow which was a brilliant money spinner for someone. The fact of the matter is that it is you that is charged and when you touch the car you are allowing the static to jump from you to metal causing a shock. Change your jumper shoes or socks that is more likely the cause.
  10. Stick to a bluetooth pda with outlook and connect it using gprs from your mobile phone also with bluetooth, then you can sync the device at home or work. I personally think its much better than the device mentioned.
  11. Have you any legal expense cover? check the conditions it may help, otherwise just take it on the chin, I dont think it will be worth the trouble to contest.
  12. I am looking for a recommended set of wheels for my sc430, 19" or 20" if they will fit, if you have some and want to off load e-mail me
  13. Yes I am afraid they do, my wife got a fine and 3 points for 33 in a 30, how pathetic is that, lets face it do we need speed cameras everywere? the motorist has to have some protection, and the RA2 also covers blackspots and schools areas as well as a constant update on speed, we dont all drive with our eyes constantly on the speedo do we? arent we meant to keep them on the road....... If anything you have picked up on, its a reason to drive like a mad man which could not be further from the truth... Just people trying to be careful thats all.
  14. pay your £50 excess and get a new screen fitted, I dont think its worth messing around
  15. Looks like you are right, pointed me back to toyota / lexus, but if I was in his neck of the woods he would assist
  16. RA2 gets the thumbs up from me, but its your choice at the end of the day
  17. normally 4 wheel drive you have to change all 4 tyres at the same time, as it can affect the electronics on your car, sorry but the tyre guy is correct I would check with your insurance should be covered.
  18. normally caused by worn inner tyres, or wheels and tyres outside the oem supplied
  19. Higher ron rating is really suited to import cars that are use to 100 ron as for most UK cars I think its personally a waste of money, I have tried it over the years and have noticed no real diffrence, stick to the cheap stuff and add some redex now and again
  20. If you fit a remote start and have a cat1 alarm you have just lost your cat1 status, I have a skyline r33 gtr also and had to buy a special cat 1 alarm with build in turbo timer to keep the cat 1 status, as far as I am aware turbo timers are not illegal as the car is running for a preset time with no ignition keys present and doors locked, if they were illegal I am sure companies like clifford would not be selling them. As for remote starts thats something I would not recommend
  21. Is it fitted with original pads? sometimes they come with anti-squeal shims and they may be missing, copperslip wont cure this problem.
  22. Hi I got one of these when they 1st came on the market and if you have a heated screen then you are advised to fit the optional antenna, works fine on my dash and I regually move it from one car to another, just make sure you keep downloading the updates.
  23. I have sent an e-mail to denso in australia, an am awaiting a reply as they did all the units for all the sc430, well as far I as I can see
  24. I was hoping that it was possible to software flash the unit to english
  25. I have just purchased a toyota lexus soarer import which is basically the SC430 lexus model, it has the touch screen etc, sat nav etc or lack of it I was hoping that some sort of firmware upgrade would sort out the language and region settings ie: turn it to UK spec, I have been given horror storys from UK installers that it would be best to start again, which I cannot believe that any manufactuer would make a item whith such a variation to the UK spec cars. I hope someone can point me in the right direction, I know its probably been asked somewere in the past but I cant see anything on this forum
