  1. Wouldnt buy one with 112k miles on it Third one doesnt list milage at all Second one is not bad, although not a GT version.
  2. I have a Milltek also, great exhaust, great sound, although does have the back box which OP pointed out as something to avoid - for the same money the Invidia has the split back box option
  3. Invidia Gemini True Dual? Circa £850 from one of the traders off here?
  4. Invidia Gemini True Dual? Circa £850 from one of the traders off here?
  5. I think I remember reading somewhere there is actually about 12/13 different types? Post up the pattern and someone might be able to help.
  6. Think Russia would get found out against better teams, but Spain look pretty good agreed although Italy playing on the counter made it difficult for them. Germany looking good, still think we have yet to see the best out of the French.
  7. Sprayed mine in the end - if you wrap them make sure you give them a really good going over with the wet and dry to even out the bits where the paint has gone otherwise the wrap shows up the edges.
  8. Something doesn't quite add up for me though - they just seemed to pull up and go straight to the front door, deliberately going for the car. If I tried opening one of the front doors of the 60 or so houses on my street the odds are massively stacked against me that it would open. These guys knew that door was open, somehow they knew they didn't just randomly pull up and try it out.
  9. Is the biting point high, or very high? Mine was high when I bought it, assuming that was ok, clutch went 2000 miles later. If there is any member local willing to check it for you well worth driving over their way DA stands for Dual Action, its a machine which makes cleaning a whole lot easier. You can do work by hand, but it will only have so much effect as it will be impossible to create the friction and heat needed to properly remove the swirls. A decent mid range DA is around the £100 mark, or you could try contact one of the detailing guys on here?
  10. hmmm that odd, never noticed that my album has stopped working... I have a member build thread on here with some pics
  11. Does Will's insurance know he does 150,000 miles per year in the Z?
  12. Just checked my posting postion and I am on page 3
  13. As above - they are stickers, so will just stick over the current dash. Usually they are a few mm's thick with curved edges so where you have them stuck down, any dash adjacent to it will be sat lower. I satin black wrapped my centre dash looks very nice
  14. Good work Ian, nice to see a little marketing initiative like that
  15. Personally would get it carbon fibre wrapped - these stickers will protrude off the dash when stuck on
  16. Could have done a better job myself - that is awful
  17. I heard Levy would only offer him a rolling contract, to be fair, if you are in your 60s, you dont want temporary rolling contracts I think they should get just as good or even better manager in, just dont expect the likes of Modric and co to hang around. Could see some serious revolving doors action going on at the Lane this summer.
  18. ...on that note, footballers should be categorically banned from twitter - as it systematically shows them up for the utter imbeciles they are.

    Steps from Aerokit and front splitter is a Stillen (bought from Tarmac) ...hey, no copying now
  20. Price is just wrong, too high. Get some standard plugs off someone off here then drive to a few indys and get them to take a look. Can be done yourself easily enough but with sparks its very easy to make a mistake ie drop them, break them etc. So if not confident or have someone local to help try some local garages. It doesnt take an hour and a half to change them btw...
  21. I have to say, the 911 sounds terrible, sounds like there is something wrong with it
  22. Am 37 and can't say I have a Porsche itch, in fact, given the amount of them around here quite happy to swerve them to be honest...
  23. On the megapixel issue, really, you only need higher than about 8mp if you intend to showcase your photos on anything printed out a larger size than A4 as a general rule - I have an 8mp canon DSLR that have owned for about 6 years now and is still fantastic and have no need to trade up from for what I use it for. Unfortunately retailers selling cameras in effect tricked consumers into thinking mp's are all important when it is more important to have: Decent brand Sensor quality Optical not digital zoom (optical is physical movement of the lens to zoom whereas digital zoom is literally zooming in on the picture thus reducing the number of active pixels - avoid any digital zoom reliant cameras) Brand wise, Canon and Nikon are very much up there as category leaders as they have huge investment and history in the category - Sony are ok although they are literally just the old Pentax brand that they purchased and rebranded, Panasonic are very much market leaders in innovation so you get great stuff from them also. Oh and invest in a decent little read on taking photos, spending an hour or so learning the basics will transform the quality of pictures you take Also, think about investing in some decent software on your computer, one of the major advantages of digital photography is that its now easy for your average consumer to do the 'dark room' stuff and tinker with the shots to adjust for colour, exposure etc - I got photoshop elements but there are some good free bits of software out there for basic touching up.
