  1. Not sure why you'd bother comparing (as spursmaddave pointed out) a car designed in the 90s with a car fresh out the lot in 2013. It's going to be leaps and bounds ahead of the zed, that's just the way the technology/power arms race is going these days. It's like getting upset when your 1980s Ferrari 308 gets diced by an EP3 Civic Type R, just enjoy your car for what it is.
  2. Argh really? I'm now literally googling Canadian car 3.6ltr 2 door 4 seats, surprisingly enough I'm not getting anywhere...
  3. Didn't see the two door bit, my entry is void
  4. How many likes do you get to use? Is that per account or on a weekly/monthly basis or something? Didn't even know there was a limit
  5. I agree and I'm in no way condoning the way the focus guy reacted but that's not to say the bloke didn't deserve a little correction. I mean, if you went up and poked a bear on the nose what is the reaction you're hoping for? From the thread you can tell the Focus owner is already pi**ed. Trying to humiliate him infront of his mates would only end one way.
  6. Having a site dedicated to having a laugh at @*!# cars probably isn't the worst thing but inviting the owners of the cars onto the website so that they can get their jollies is pretty low. They quite often ask the car owner where they were touched when they were little and other such remarks but I'd think that more to be a trait of someone who has to justify their own menial existance by trying their best to make others miserable. The bloke that got a smack? Probably deserved it in the grand scheme of things and might make him think twice before he approaches someone else in a bid to take internet harassment a step too far.
  7. Am I the only one who thinks his family screaming for justice is slightly ironic? I've no doubt if Mark Duggan wasn't shot that day then he'd currently be hiding from the justice system, by the looks of it, with the rest of his family/friends too. You don't deserve justice if you've spat in its face your whole life.
  8. It's only a car, as nice as I think the zed is, replace it if you're not having fun and getting upset over the running costs for the perceived performance you are receiving (there aren't many N/A V6 cars from 10 years ago pushing 280+bhp). I used to have a kpro'd civic myself and wouldn't go back, even if it was quick it certainly does not make the noise the zed does. As to the running costs of the zed? Insurance is a nudge over £500, fuel isn't THAT bad and tax is fine? Servicing is no dearer than any other performance car really. Don't drive like mad max and tyre wear shoud be fine too?
  9. If you read about the internet it seems there are a lot of cars with pistons causing problems, Subaru were remapping cars to fix this but people have had the remap and still had failures. This is specifically aimed at the 2.5ltr engines. I'd imagine now that a lot of them are out of warranty it would be a bit of a minefield to get one that isn't going to break and a costly excercise if it does. That said I'm no expert but I'd personally never buy a car with a poor reputation for reliability.
  10. I'm not an expert on them but I've heard they have some engine issues so I'd research hard before parting with money for one.
  11. Tempted with this but need to find out how much spraying / fitting will cost, is Monday during the day still okay to put down an order if interested?
  12. Are the Go-Pro cameras likely to fall off at the national speed limit? I never see anyone on here with a clip of the car accelerating onto a dual carriageway or anything? Would be quite nice to hear it go through the rev range using several gears.
  13. And that's for sale for £9k? Obviously, the yellow one is hideous and is a crime against anyone with eye sight but the green one is a grower. Edit: that black one is very nice though I wish!!. Nobody said there was a price limit anyway. Green one hasn't grown on me (yet) sorry mouthwash but each to there own. My point was, that Supra is probably in a price bracket of its own

  16. The yellow one is a true mess, I literally don't have the words to describe just how bad that car is.
  17. I'm not sure why but I quite like the decal on the car, it breaks up the green a bit.
  18. I suppose it could do with a little updating on the interior but I'm not really that up on Supras, do people update the interior of them? It is a car from the 90s so having horrible grey plastic is kind of fitting?
  19. I was looking around on Pistonheads, as you do, and came across this Supra... I thought it was quite nice, thoughts? http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/toyota/supra/toyota-supra-twin-turbo--manual-6-speed/1910171 Then I scrolled down the listings a little bit and came across whatever the f*ck this is http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/toyota/supra/toyota-supra-highly-modified-twin-turbo-aero-top-one-off-custom-show-winner/1318942 Not a bad way to spend twenty grand, I guess....
  20. I suppose if you think about it, setting your car on fire is a fitting tribute? Just a shame the idiot forgot to leave himself in it. Probably easier ways to go about setting fire to your car other than revving it for 20 minutes but then again, I don't think you can comprehend the intelligence of a man that does something like this.
  21. ..... So which one is it? Or am I just mistaken and it's actually an enonomy racing gear box?
  22. A red Mazda? That's quite broad, what kind of red Mazda? Got a Pic?
