    C6 Corvette

    Well for starters, the wheel is on the wrong side.
  2. Ep5 was meh. Still better than 1 and 2 though. Same complaints as before.
  3. Post the .jpg url into the sig editor. Make sure it's < 500x100px though.
  4. Ah, should look pretty good then. Was it supposed to look like this?
  5. Those eyelids are to go with a CF hood right? Also your sig is borked.
  6. I reckon it's just gonna be like watching Bear Grylls for 9 months. Though it is Russia, so there might be a lil bit of Battle Royal. Gonna be difficult to pin any crimes on people if the cameras don't catch it when there's 30 people with motive. Will be interesting to see how they film it - whether they follow each contestant round with drones or there's just 2000 cameras hidden in trees and stuff. I assume at the end of the 9 months any prize money is just shared...
  7. Yeah, much shorter life than a piston engine and they have to be taken care of; something which you can't guarantee when buying used.
  8. Other than the infamous reliability of the RX-8, I heard they take ages to really get going and have no torque. XKR-Z
  9. Wonder what the Z would look like with those jag louvres... Brb, Photoshop Can't have it perfect or there will be nothing to mod
  10. Facelift bumper needs this one: Available at Clark Motorsport for £20, though I'm not sure if it comes painted like in the picture.
  11. Aye. The ad says it's a Honda part and gives the part number. If it turns out to be crap / doesn't match the description I'll be sending a disapproving message to the seller :< That being said, I never listen to the radio, so even if it's crap, as long as it looks okay, I won't mind too much. Will be keeping the original to swap back if there's ever a need. Should find out some time between 6/1/17 and 8/2/17
  12. My main issue with PB is that it's such a ballache to view the full res image.
  13. And if they are the only one on the road, then fair enough, but show a little courtesy for the others drivers on the road who don't want to be forced to do the same by either letting them pass or doing a sensible speed. People seem to forget that manners exist when they are in a car.
  14. Yeh, I read some stuff about that but also a few things about master cylinders which sounded scary.
  15. Ailment: noun. 1. a physical disorder or illness I'm not sure I'd like to be described that way if I was pregnant Personally I haven't noticed much, if any, difference in terms of ride comfort between 30 and 50 unless the road surface is awful, but as I said, that's not where I take issue. All the roads I have issues on are perfectly smooth (or as good as they come in the UK ), unless you are aiming for the drain covers... It's just hard to understand how people feel incompetent above 30mph on a straight, open road, but I feel that in the majority of cases it's just stubbornness, not a lack of ability. Either way, it's no excuse for not letting someone pass. If you're walking on the pavement slowly (for whatever reason) and someone wants to get past, you wouldn't continue to block the path and not let them pass, would you? Maybe you didn't see the person behind you, but in a car that is not an excuse, so you can not claim ignorance.
  16. Well you shouldn't be driving when tired or ill in the first place. As for additional weight, assuming the car can still reach the speed limit, then as long as you account for additional stopping distance by leaving a larger gap in front, you should have no issue going the speed limit (when it's safe to do so). I'm not sure what ailment makes 50 on country roads uncomfortable (genuinely), but it's much smoother than going over any speed bumps at any speed. If there is a valid reason, then my disagreement doesn't apply, but I can't believe the multiple people I get stuck behind every single day all have a valid reason. There's one hill in particular with a 40 speed limit and every single day I get stuck behind someone going 30 stomping on the brakes every 5 seconds then accelerating again. You don't even need to use the throttle to get to 40, take your foot completely off and if you pick the gear right you'll cruise down at 40 without having to touch the throttle or brake. It's practically a straight road with excellent visibility, and no matter how hard I try I can't work out their reasoning. I can only think it used to be a 30 and people aren't bothering to look at the many signposts with a massive "40" on them. It's not even like they are being more economical...
  17. That's pretty much my thought process too, Bullet. Except I wouldn't say the Cayman is girly. It's a more manly version of the Boxster.
  18. Updated the first post with a new problem
  19. Get a ride in it. Or a test drive if it's for sale Just don't get too attached, they are a bit more expensive than zeds
