or Ywngie Malmsteen - if anyone can play "Flight of the Bumblebee" on guitar, he is automatically classed as a Legend

I feel sorry for whoever tries to steal your car - Scene from the 1st Resident Evil the Movie anyone?! You'll know what I'm talking about

my penchant with Power Metal started with Dragonforce...then a friend kept letting me hear a few songs by Kamelot etc...so I thought "Bah!" and Downloaded a 5GB compilation....listened to it in it's entirety last week...now I have 30GB of power metal downloading It's real easy listening stuff - awesome guitar solos, gay but good singing, long hair...what's not to like?! Oh Mikey, you HAVE to listen to "The Neverending Story" by Dragonlord...you read that song title right it's absolutely astounding!

"Melodic Death"....stuff like In Flames, Soilwork, Scar Symmetry, etc... Progressive Metal also rocks - Opeth own all

Amen to Phil & Nick (and Mikey I suppose, but he smells) Primarily Metal, especially Melodeath and Metalcore...real fan of Power Metal as well (why else would I have long hair and sound like a girl?!). Do like a few other things too as of late (some dance/techno songs, some chillout - "Massive Attack's/Newton Faulkner's - Teardrop" for example, t3h roxor, some Backstreet boys songs....) but it's literally 60 or so of these types of songs compared to the 9000 or so metal songs I have ...but I'm a metal fan through and through 80's music also pwns anything ever made ever...fact!

may be an issue with the Event starter himself (sx_turbo), had a minor altercation with a Transit Van...

You'll need a straw for the inevitable felching that shall ensue *shivers* Hehe, but srsly, you really don't want to know what it is...and you won't find it on google as Rick's abbreviated it

£25 an hour?!!

if I say Ratio, he can see where the mathematics comes in

there is when you have to work out the braking force of each and how to fit it into the Original brake force distrubution ratio

Google > you

could I interest you in some very cheap GReddy Type-RS Replicas? Only bought them as I needed something cheap, quick when I thought I was being ripped off of my Authentic GReddy Type-RS (I still think I am) - only looking for £35 delivered, could do if you're looking for something "in the meantime"? The HKS SSQV's are reknowned for being great units with regards to boost sealing, as they utilise a Pull-type mechanism, which means the boost pressure will actually push the valve closed, so it cannot physically leak through. But they do sound like a canary stuck in a blender - they sound

- sorry Mike for whoring your thread, but I'm loose

£400 fully comprehensive is cheap enough for me too

couldn't you hear me granny hehe

oldie

posting the thread twice won't make more people read it

you really don't want to know

forget the grooved/drilled discs nonsense (anyone who mentions my Grooved discs will be wet-willied...and not with my finger), if you people are seriously experiencing brake fade, all you'll need are perhaps are Levin sized caliper/disc. One thing alot of people neglect is that the braking force in a car is distributed between the front and rear wheels...and as such, their maximum braking efficiency is meant to be delivered with the stock ratio. When you suddenly increase the front end braking capability, you're pretty much left with the rear wheels doing next to fluff all, and as such, the

I'm a leech of society....yes, I'm a student bum, "studying" Motorsport Technology/Engineering

eep - I therefore stand thoroughly corrected, and slightly pwnt

if it's made in Thailand, they're going to be fake...so they're technically not Goodyears...probably Goodmonths, indicating the amount of time they'll last before a catastrophic failure

Silkroad RM/A8's Thanks for the kind comments everyone, and thanks again Harrison, was great meeting your hawtself too, sorry you had to stay out in the drizzle for so long And fark was it cold, sat in the car rubbing myself for a bit to warm up...ooh err . As we discussed, shall let you know as soon as I get them on for a verdict, though as you've clearly shown me, pretty sure they'll be good! Cannot wait for the next trackday...last time I was on a trackday was 2 years ago with a bog standard car

if your pads ARE glazing, you've obviously got the wrong compound pads, you don't NEED the de-glazing properties of Grooved discs, if your pads are glazing and you're getting brake fade, buy some better pads/stop driving like a fool. Drilled disperse heat, get rid of gas bla bla...yes, but reduces the braking surface area. And drilled discs crack cause people just think "drill a hole and BANG, it's done", no chamferring of the hole, no stress relieving, nothing. Again, not needed. AP Racing, Brembo, Wilwood etc, they'll all quote that they're street drilled/grooved discs are for aesthetic reas

w00t! Picked up my Coilovers from Harrison yesterday, to say I'm over the frikkin' moon is an understatement...there finally seems to be a faint glimmer of hope in turning my bucket into a car! They do look rough, but Harrison's assured me (and showed me) it's just surface rust, the pistons are immaculately clean, the front camber plates haven't even ever been adjusted! I thoroughly recommend Harrison for anyone needing parts from Yahoo Auctions - did experience some of his tough love at first, but when the love came, omfg, teh secks. But srsly, thoroughly decent chap and in no way has he
