.. Anyone else got reptiles?

Meet Arfur...

Strictly speaking not mine, but my son's - although we looked after him for ages when my son moved out. In the end, when we moved house recently we gave him to a good home. So, no, we don't have any reptiles - even the family of a dozen blue tailed skinks that disappeared under the floorboards when their vivarium door was left ajar are in the old house.

Here are my titts - light smoke side & mid smoke rear quarterlight (the rear hatch is also mid smoke, but it's not visible here).

The Milltek is the best performing system but there isn't much in it. It ends up being more down to more personal preference and looks.

 

Thanks for that. So how much improvement in horsepower could I expect to see - at the wheels - from a Milltek catback?

 

Edit - with uprev, I mean.

 

Hello. Hard to say. Bigger diameter and smoother with the Y pipes or true twin is always going to be better. I haven't had the chance to have one car on the dyno and do a full set of back to back tests unlike what Mark at Abbey has managed plus you can even see 2 cars, same year, same motor same mods making 15bhp difference so again hard to say. Its a case of better breathing is always going to see bigger improvements in overall performance and throttle response. Sorry I couldn't be more specific.

Thanks for your help TDi - Even though you can't give me specific data, you're helping me to make a decision about whether I take up your offer or not. Like Jaz 350 I may also be in a better position to get it done after Christmas, so is your 'end of year' deadline an absolute one?

I'm declaring today "Lou Reed Day", playing nothing but Lou Reed/Velvet Underground all day. Just a Perfect Day...

I think you guys have to start a list and then pay.

All saying yes please giving different dates will only confuse things.

1st of all get either Abbey or TDI to give a difinative date in December or when ever

And then put names down without all the trimmings.

I am sure either will put payment details up.

keep it simples

Thanks for your input, but as the potential customer I think I'll wait until TGi have answered my question in post 12 before making my decision, if you don't mind.

This is tempting me more than you could ever know.

I still can't decide between Resonated Milltek, Invidia and Scorpion systems (catback) - Can you please tell me the differences in performance I could expect from these 3 systems with an uprev?

I'd get it done at Abbey, by the way.

And I took this one of you..... very apt username

 

:lol:

Inside every fat bloke...

£100 charge for parking there and then £50 charge for hire of a private room so we can sit 10 people together

Do I smell the feint odour of rip-off?

Welcome to Yorkshire.

Congratulations to Vettel. Fair play to him - good driver in a brilliant car. My only wish is to see him and Lewis in the same team one day, then we'll see who's best.

I have chav'd up my Jaaaag and I couldn't give a stuff what anyone thinks, don't judge a book by its cover and all that

You're absolutely right mate. I took this pic when I first met you and I can confirm that first impressions are very deceptive.

Bugger Bugger Bugger, please tell me I'm not the oldest Z driving Chav on here !

Im now writing in a whispering manner but can't find a smaller font.

I'm 66 but on the +ve side I'm devilishly good looking nd highly intelligent as well nd often get the eye from lady's in wheel chairs or pushing zimmers as I wheel spin past in the Z.....Ha ha

 

Don't worry mate, you're not the oldest. I said you're not the oldest. There are plenty older than you. I said there are plenty older than you.

 

 

...he is the oldest really, but don't tell him (he'll never see this).

There are at least 4 Zedders or ex Zedders older than Dicky at the last count

Well, if we're using ex Zedders in the calculation (and we're not), I'm sure there are hundreds older than Dicky - he's just a pup compared to them. But up to now, Dicky is the oldest I SAID YOU'RE THE OLDEST ONE, DICKY - unless, of course, youuuuuu know better.

Edit - He said he'll answer soon, but he's on the toilet at the moment

I grew up there ..........................why do you think I'm as tall as I am

Both legs amputated and the prosthetic replacements were too big? Just a guess.

I say no way to orange wheels. Too chavvy (with apologies to anyone with orange wheels). If you must have a colour, why not a dark metallic purple?

The recently discovered chicken spider that form colonies like meerkats. Sleep together, hunt together and...

...watch out Ricey & Pete87 - they're coming to get youuuuuu

not really

He's changed his shirt for Q2.

:lol:

 

Are they that bad then?!

...and getting worse by the minute - thank god quali's starting!

Your face would like its nose back.

If I had a nose I think I could smell the armpits from here.

Another reason to watch Sky then.

I'd rather watch Jordan than give Murdoch a single penny - that's how much I hate Murdoch.

Eddie Jordan's sweaty armpits - ewwww

Hate hate hate spiders!

Aaah, the old 'Irrational fear of tiny insects' thing. Bear with me...

I've thought about this and I reckon that people are scared of spiders because...

A. They can move very quickly when they want to, and

B. You don't always know what direction they will go in, so theoretically they could end up in your armpit or invade your crotch or your mouth.

In other words they have speed, with a hint of directional unpredictability - just like your beloved car. So if you think of spiders as the 350z's of the insect world, maybe you can learn to love them a bit?

Be patient, Grasshopper - Your answer will pop through the letterbox in due course.

...and very beautiful too.
