yeah forgot about that its a veilside bonnet

the geo was awful on it but its semi sorted now bar the camber adjusters.

So the blue ones gone this is what i'm going to play with for a while. I did desperately want a supra but it was really hard to get 2 kids in the back and the missus in the front, so i went for an Aristo instead. Lots of goodies going onto this one it already has tein monoflex's, front brace, TRD chassis Braces, HKS intercooler,HKS SSQV bov, TRD LSD, 19" finelli firenza sport alloys and defi boost gauges. ITs going to get installed the blitz dual soln boost controller,blitz turbo timer, Walbro pump, Greddy emanage ultimate and hybrid steel turbos+injectors (summer). Hopefully after the emanage and boost controller set up i'll be running at 1.2bar with some nice dyno graphs, will push for more power in the summer with the hybrids and uprated injectors etc

Very slick tony like it. However the virtual tour does make you feel a bit seasick with the 360's and wobbles a bit like a head full of LSD (so i'm told). Other than that its good grabs your attention and keeps it. One thing though that needs a caption competition :D

Its actually quite easy you can do it with a palm handheld and a piece of software that learns from having the control pointed at it. I used to put all my remotes onto the palm including the tv and the cars. If its someone doing that then its someone who hangs around or is local.

Wish i had the cash too. However i'd pay serious money for the use of Russel Brand as target practice or a toy pudsey bear kept warm between keira knightly's thighs

yes will be adjustment all round but the main thing is it now feels safe price was £200 and i was there for about 4 hours. Problem is now i've forgotten the name of the camber adjusters i was supposed to look at He also mentioned you Tony said you had some interesting conversations lol i bet theres a protractor and a slide rule in there somewhere ;)

which bits ?

Well the geometry is done and dusted and my god was it needed. The car no longer feels like its trying to kill me and its not a constant fight with the steering on a knifedge ( center of gravity called the rear set up a widowmaker ) Spent 4 hours with Chris at CoG setting up the car and was well impressed, his knowledge and thoroughness in the evaluation and set up was superb and he was more than happy to talk me through the alterations and what i wanted to use the car for. I haven't really had the chance to try it out fully yet as i'm still a bit hesitant due to the handling prior to the geo and the fact the back alloys aren't the correct ones until i get a replacement, but the car is well planted now goes where its aimed and no longer fights me for direction. If you live in the midlands area i would recommend Center of Gravity without hesitation. the end results are attached the only caveat to it is i need to get some camber adjusters for the rear in the future as the adjustment was at max to dial out the camber paul_power_toyota_aristo_131108_picture_1_.pdf paul_power_toyota_aristo_131108_table_1_.pdf

if that goes as good as it looks it'll end up in 1984 or orbiting mars

You seem to be under the illusion we still have a british car industry :P Problem is now all the british cars are owned by foreign companies there are very few left that are "all" british only one of note i can think of atm is morgan

you should be able to transfer it keith as long as its the same fob type my mk1 key has the same problem they split around the button. The fix to it is to stop lifting the tailgate up with the key ;) Bit late i know but as they say better late than never

just saw this alright keith how the devil are you. Still ahve the original GS atm but its being broken for parts (lots still there ) and going due to it being battered around the car park by idiots and the arse falling out of the car market. Have a jz161 v300 aristo now which i'm plugging my cash into. Still sorry to see the old GS go though put alot of effort into that car and if it wasn't for the fact that it was cheaper to buy the aristo than upgrade the mk1 i would have kept the GS

I think Tony now recommends the F1 Asymmetrics now that the GSD3's are discontinued (I will be getting some F1A's fitted on Saturday). The T1R's are still a good choice. Is that with me hot topic with me atm as i have to replace 4 tyres due to negative camber :tsktsk: i'm going for pirelli p0 corsas for a change normally i would opt for the toyo t1rs but found the corsas cheap and atm with getting the emanage, ebc, geo, turbo timer and the rolling road map spending £250 a corner wasn't an option. To answer the question though recommendation and price are what decides tyre purchase for me also previous experience with similar brand tyres

heard of this before it all comes down to whether or not it says in the manual "driving lights" i have a set of LED "driving lights" hard wired into the mains. I agree with everyone else on this the lights on higher wheelbased vehicles are much more dazzling than fogs etc, again its just another revenue generation exercise funded by the motorist and another statistic to add to the roster. If there was the policeman around i'd ask him if it counted towards detected crimes but i haven't seen him in ages

For The Fallen With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children, England mourns for her dead across the sea. Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of her spirit, Fallen in the cause of the free. Solemn the drums thrill; Death august and royal Sings sorrow up into immortal spheres, There is music in the midst of desolation And a glory that shines upon our tears. They went with songs to the battle, they were young, Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow. They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted; They fell with their faces to the foe. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years contemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. They mingle not with their laughing comrades again; They sit no more at familiar tables of home; They have no lot in our labour of the day-time; They sleep beyond England's foam. But where our desires are and our hopes profound, Felt as a well-spring that is hidden from sight, To the innermost heart of their own land they are known As the stars are known to the Night; As the stars that shall be bright when we are dust, Moving in marches upon the heavenly plain; As the stars that are starry in the time of our darkness, To the end, to the end, they remain.

Great sentiments its just a shame that you are in the minority of people with them. I used to have great pride in my country, my service (RAF) and the principles/ethos of the armed forces. Unfortunately as those still in the mob will agree our forces have become more politicised amongst the upper ranks and to get to those upper ranks you need to be a political animal. Nevertheless as has been stated the reason of the poppy is to remember the sacrifices of those in conflicts and the courage and honour behind their actions. To all those in ops at the minute i sincerely hope they get home safe and soon

About 100 miles to WIM. Manchester must be about the same distance. its not the distance its the etime taken to get there and the fact i have no opportunity due to being absolutely maxed out with projects at work in an ideal world without a doubt it would be a trip to wim. Theres every chance when i get the opportunity i'll go get it double checked there anyhow

thats handy as i live in tamworth cheers for that. I would prefer to go to tony bones but this is kinda an emergency i don't want to be putting more rubber on with this type of wear Whats the going rate for a 4 wheel alignment and adjust on all 4 wheels ?

will the normal gs eibachs not fit onto the sport then?

Desperately need the geometry sorting on the risto as the wear on the rears is awful to say the least, don't think its ever been corrected post coilovers and 19s. So i am looking for a good and reputable place to go in the birmingham/coventry area. Also to do a proper geo check do the wheels you intend to run need to be on the car as one of the rears blew today and the alloy buckled so do i need to wait post refurb.

Looks like a pair of trent 900 or 1000s to me they usually do mad things with the civil jets to show them off. Last one i saw was a french pilot stacking an airbus into a forest though showing off the stall angle of the aircraft that was fairly funny

my original 147 is no more, its about to be sent to the car park in the sky i now have an v300 with a few odds and sods on it hks fmic, fujitsubu legalis zaust, coilovers all the good stuff but i'm going to uprate the turbo's soon so i wanted a piggyback to handle it when i got there. Its a process of gathering atm prior to the fit and i am trying not to miss anything

so if i mention your name will i get a discount or have to pay double? :P
