  1. ........... and blatantly homosexual? Even if hes too young to know it yet, we all know the truth Dutch hockey team ahoy!!
  2. IS-F's are amazing if you can stretch to one, I dont know what XF V8's are costing s/h but they are similarly astonishing cars. If you cant do either of them then Id be looking at an AMG Merc or a 335 - 335 engines are one of my personal favourites, I like the V10 M5 but its sooooo thirsty its ridiculous and they are MASSIVE. Every S4 Ive driven Ive liked everything but the handling which Ive hated as it feels like the engine is about 10ft in front of the car I like the e-diff on the M3 but not so much on the 335, theres a guy on here that fitted a Quaife though and says its night and day :nod: Others to consider are Maserati Quattroporte, 535d (best car in the world?), lesser XF's (which are still pretty amazing cars), or from leftfield, what about an Evo X?
  3. I have to disagree, I didnt find the Vrede's particularly good in the wet and they were considerably less communicative, especially when on the limit. The RE050A's phone me up and have a 5 minute conversation before they give way, I think their outright grip is better as well. Not often a cheaper tyre performs better than a more expensive one
  4. How can you have a turbo kit without a manifold?
  5. Leryn Franco wins as best of all time, thats perfection right there. We have had to ban any further pictures of beach volleyballers on the SXOC one as they are all pretty fit
  6. After many fiascos trying to get tickets, failing but still getting offered them at 4 times face value every single day in the run up I was determined not to have anything to do with it. To see loads of empty spaces at events that I was desperate to go to isnt helping much either, I think it was all a scam and they had no intention of giving tickets to people who lived close enough to go home every night, just makes me angry and even less inclined to watch it .............. but I failed though, enjoying everything so far from weightlifting, archery, diving to eventing (the missus made me watch it, OK?), forgotten how much I enjoy swimming as well. The only thing Ive not really got into is the football, and I think thats just a mental block knowing that its not going to be as good as what we get week in, week out, similarly with Basketball. As for beach volleyball, why cant we watch that all the time, is there anything it hasnt got going for it?? The Czech team hasd my full attention for an hour last night ........... even when they were wearing clothes!!
  7. I have an import car with cloth seats and *shock horror* I prefer them to the leather. They wear a lot better too

    Stud pattern

    Nope, both the same. Geometry is slightly different but wouldnt affect wheel fitment either
  9. Wrapped cars rarely look as good as painted ones, the wrap will cost you the best part of what a respray does as well. If you like that one, why not swap the seats out for something else?
  10. Was watching this one last night, shes lovely .......... The one on the left is Marketa Slukova, Czech beach volleyball player, her mate Kolocova isnt bad either. They were covered up last night though, not happy. And another, Josefine Oqvist, Swedish footballer:
  11. Dont forget T56 gearboxes arent cheap either, its not a conversion to take lightly
  12. Umm, less words, more pictures, yes?? OK, its everyones first choice but ZOMG. Dirty old mouth on her as well Doesnt get much better. Theres at least two on each football team as well, looking for them is proving to be an enjoyable experience .............
  13. I know, Ive just driven enough to feel like I can make that claim. If someone was to ask Id say the weight distribution on the scoob is 60/40, where its closer to 50/50 in an Evo and exactly 50/50 in a Grale, and power 60/40 Scoob, 40/60 Evo and christ only knows in a Grale
  14. The ones Ive driven do (MY98 and Bugeye without DCCD) compared to Evo 5,6,7 and 8. They both understeer more than Integrales as well.
  15. Brother has a 360hp Evo8, its different but equally cool. Fuel and servicing are about the only reasons I dont buy it off of him ........... personally I prefer Evo's to Scoob as well, they feel more driver orientated to me (more communicative and without the understeer) If you just want thrilling and fast, buy a Supra, FD RX, 200SX, Soarer or Chaser and take it up over 400hp
  16. Yep, all of my contracts state that we cant move more than 35 miles away from current location
  17. ITs not just BMW sadly, youve been able to nick a car with a matched ECU and key for a while, this is the new "development" to stop that happening. Oh, and BMW, keep your expensive and shiny stuff expensive and shiny.
  18. Is there an uprated rod option for the DE available? I guess the engine comes out to fit the SC int he first place, cant be that much more work to drop the sump off and replace rods and bearings?? I am seriously considering this, particularly after looking at those curves, was this on Uprev or some other management?
  19. You didnt see the vast mountain of driveshafts they have been through then?? Sounds like you had a great time, good stuff. If you fancy a bit more then buy yourself a cheap pair of wheels and go to the next DWYB at Santa Pod, its only £60, theres nothing to hit and you can play as much as you like, being able to do it on demand is a great feeling
  20. The crownwheel, output shafts and pinion arent included? So you are just selling a casing and ring gear then? Not really a "diff" is it ..........
  21. You know, the whole time Ive been reading this Ive been thinking "hes been sold the wrong discs/pads", how can a non pressurised system leave the brakes stuck on, but thought that was a bit too obvious to post. Glad you have found your problem, good luck getting it sorted
  22. Both pretty much flat out, the 7 felt nervous and a little detached from the road where the 6 felt like I was invincible (125 mph off the M11 - A11 if anyone knows it), this is comparing a C2S 997 with a C4S 996, it may have been alignment or something but I really didnt feel comfortable caning it. I also prefer 996 interiors but I think Im alone on that one
  23. I still prefer the 996 to the 997 I drove, it might be more modern but I dont know that its better ..........
  24. Try an Alfa 2.4 JTD for nice diesel sounds.

    Golf R32

    Had a chasey with oen a little while back, lost all respect when I was going round roundabouts faster than he was. In the wet. Sideways. Nice cars, but always struck me as a rebadged Audi S3, a bit of a toothless tiger.
