  1. not all on a Zed granted but i have Owned Miesters R, HSD mono pro, driven cars on KW and BC and HSD Dual Tech are the worse i have used,The Expensive HSD the MonoPro where lovely and at the time the DUal techs wernt out so when i got me Z i went dual techs as HSD was good last time and im far from impressed by them. a little comparison KW are fanatastic as there firm and solid yet give a smooth ride The Dual Tech seem to be the opposite They Give a crashy hard ride whilst still being very boaty and lose We have played around trying different damping setting and adjusting the tension on the spring but when im doing my drifting and pictures from Castle combe at japfest prove even on hardest setting the car was still boating to a point that on some pictures you cant see the tyre wall as its in the arch i have never had this on a set of coilovers before, Even the lexus is200 version of the dual techs dont come close to that of the monopros there is no stiffness in them just a crashy rebound, I mean as always its horse for courses but i was unimpressed and when everything else is sorted i will be swapping out for something else
  2. yea its bobs and Keyser bitch with the tailgate up behind it
  3. dont just dont worse coilovers i have used
  4. Well that was a bit of a let down
  5. Was this before or after you took your strippy bmw on the pride parade
  6. i also wonder how many years untill we can wirelessly charge a car as the tech for wireless phone charging is starting to trickle out so having a large charging pad in car parks/drive ways to charges cars all the time there not in use, or even at red lights to give a quick top up
  7. so boats get sold in the volume of cars in the uk?? Technology to send a boat around the world isnt the same as it is to send a car from london to oslo A diesel electric lorry wouldn't have range? yet ive already said a diesel electric locomotive can travel alot further than just a diesel locomotive? this topic isnt about batteries and there environmental impacts, its was actual Gangzoom sharing his hand on experience with his EV to then immediately gets someone with the handle Jetpilot Attack him personally with very rude abrupt and sarcastic remarks
  8. What do you mean no range? the range would be as big as the fuel tank? Class 43 Hst have been going up and down from London to Edinburgh all day without a refill? since the 80s im guessing as boats dont get sold on a regular basis there is very little incentive to invest in the technology, cant see why it wouldn't work in a lorry though and you havent asked me about the environmental impact on battery? but if this is any help there isnt batteries a such is a diesel electric train the diesel engine runs the generator that runs the wheel motors it saves fuel/emission over just diesel locomotives because the engines don't have to run at as higher speed, Yes it still uses fossil fuel but it uses less alot less
  9. Is that not what it means in this thread? Are we powering are cars with BASS now lol
  10. i keep thinking ICE is In car Entertainment lol
  11. I have read it 3 times now please show me where i called you a name? Stop fuelling a fire which isnt there.
  12. Regarding Cars looking at Pikes Peak its seem to be quite a conclusion with all the drivers that EV cars will be the fastest cars in a year or two, due to to the fact of zero performance loss unlike the fuel cars get the higher they go, It is safe to say we have i guess a good 30-40 years of commercial Performance hybrids with a golf gti hybrids focus st hybrid etc before we have a full on Focus STev etc but it will happen
  13. no more offensive than your being right so in 70 years we went from a model T to a mclaren F1 What to stop us in 70 years going from a nissan leaf to a nissan GTRev wih 1000bhp and 1000 miles of range
  14. you talk rubbish in a life time we have come from a Ford model T to a mclaren P1
  15. The Issue now is not only the performance range is the EV cars look like they have been designed by someone doing a children book we want something with more flare sorry Gangzoom The leaf looks like something from a fisher prices toy range but tesla and bmw are heading the way Read this - http://www.stancewor...-bmw-i8-and-i3/
  16. Its the future whether you like it or not. embraces it and see the good or be like the guys stuck in there cars from the 60's and think everything we have now is @*!# If not the new nissan sports car/gtr the next will be a hybrid like the P1/918 Mitsubuhsi are talking about amping up the tech in their PHEV to make a full EV sports car http://youtu.be/-0Uu-RXSFZ8
  17. It's all about baby steps look how the first fuel cars started and transformed in 10 year there will be more ev on the road than fossil fuel burning fact.
  18. You can get a larger throttle body for less which will actually make HP
  19. Interesting wheel choice but does work with the smooth roadsters look
  20. Seen this on piston heads so thought it would be interesting to see everyones £100k garage Mine would be 2008 Ginetta G50 race car £23,750 Ford F150 Raptor £45,999 2008 Lexus ISF £12995 1999 Porsche Carrera 4 £9450 1991 corolla gti ae92 £3995 a pair of Cheap BMW for drifting £2000 which should leave me around 1000-2000 to get a Quadzilla PGO 250R
  21. good old Rob Dydek and big black

  23. Pfft sod paying for oil I just use what ever the local chippy has left in his fryer
