  1. I wouldn't trust power gain claims from power filters, because it's all relative to the engine - ie. They claim 15BHP, but that's when used with an RB26DETT I had a link to an impartial filter comparison but I can find it anymore, I'm sure someone here knows the one I mean, and hopefully they'll post the link for you.
  2. Just saw these 15" TE37's advertised on GTTurbo.com, £400 - Bargain
  3. Woohoo! Get some arty farty shots taken and put up.
  4. The thing is... this glossary is really for lazy people anyway. Research t'internet and all will be revealed about anything you want to know.
  5. It's not breach of copyrigh unless you're making money from it. Although Banzai could argue the point that putting the feature on the site will stop people from buying the magazine, and they could sue for damages. Which would mean they could sue for 76(members)x£3.90=£296.40 ie. the possible number of people that won't buy the mag if it was posted on this site.
  6. Oh by the way, the screen washer system could work but you'd probably find you will need to modify a few things? like the nozzles will need to be changed to generate a finer mist to aid heat exchange... and you'll probably add some methanol to the water to help evaporation. But yeah, it'd work better than no water spray bar... my idea is fiendish though, mwa, mwa haha...
  7. Nice car. Are those fox alloys? They're nice, but think you're right, it'd look better with a set of jap style wheels.
  8. That's a good start Ryno, About the cheap intercooler spray... I have a secrect idea along the lines of charge cooling but slightly different (but it's a secret so I'm not telling ) --For a conventional air-air cooler system.
  9. being 22, I'm now waiting for the glories of being 25...
  10. I've just finished my honours year at Glasgow Uni, qualified with a BEng in Aerospace Engineering. I'm working full time as a bookmaker right now (taking a bit of time of till I get a real job in the industry - drinking, chillin' you know) Speaking of which: Any jobs going?
  11. Heh, don't know what kind of celicas you guys have been looking at
  12. I've been working non stop... only been replyng on lunch breaks, and time between drinking. I did have a quick go, but it ended up looking crap, so I scrapped it.
  13. They consider it more likely to burst into flames if it's not OEM though... which implies that you're more likely to claim on it.
  14. Well you can now guess my name: xxxxxx@xxxxxxxx.co.uk
  15. I was working on the assumption that he wanted the wheels he has, painted in the above styles. Correct me if I'm wrong trip.
  16. Yeah, but when I made them darker to fit with the twilight shot of Rubix's car, they turned out a bit... erm cream coloured
  17. A glossary is a good idea mate. But I'd keep it at that, once you start to explain what's best here and there it's all opinions - and everyone has different opinions...
  18. I like the black wheels, just every photo looks like you're floating ;)
  19. I posted these on the old site ages ago. I used Rubix's Glanza as a base, and although the chops are only subtly modded, that's the way I like them. Original Carbon mirrors Carbon Scoop Buddy Club P1 RacingII's FMIC Carbon mirrors Carbon Scoop Volk TE37's FMIC The gamma's all wrong on my monitor so (as I've seen on a few mates comps) the carbon might look a bit shoddy. But hey, these were my first attempts at photoshopping. Hope this get's people wanting to do a few car-chops.
  20. not a problem bud, nice chop anyway ;)
  21. I like the heads up display. The thread was actually to mod the original starlet pic mate, although your chop is welcome.
  22. Zep do them... but I don't know about any UK based retailers
  23. A quick photoshop of what I mean
