  1. LOL! that completly cracked me up!! AND SO TRUE!!!! hahahahahaha OT: that car truly looks wicked/evil!
  2. It's the endless eye for details what makes this car stand out from the mass. LOOKING GREAT!!
  3. looking great as ever mate! keep it up and get those ITB's on asap
  4. Does it only rub on the rear? mostly righthand side? Panhard rod is the way to go when you lower a starlet like that.
  5. Thanks guys!!! I survived yesterdays drive and all smoke is gone, all clean now! i have an original air intake and even a heatshield on my exhaust manifold, so reaching the leaked oil was almost impossible..
  6. decat doesnt get as hot as exhaust manifold, but still should be ok but stinks and smokes. better go for a blast in town until smoke is gone before i take it to the highway.. so you guys think it shouldnt be a prob right?
  7. ok i swapped my rocker cover and installed fresh gaskets, only messed it up a bit so after a short drive it smelled really funny... so checked under the hood and it was smoking!! some oil had leaked on my exhaust manifold and warmed up and started smoking. I solved the source of the problem, the gasket wasnt fitted 100% but now there is still some oil on my manifold which i can hardly reach. cleaned up as much as possible. is it harmfull to drive like this??? will i catch on fire? damage the manifold? asap anwers please cause i actually have to drive 150 km this evening. Thnx a million!

    Agony Aunt?

    I say give her a chance. Wiat until after the exams as it can be really stressfull. The fact you made the effort to post this up means you are really into her and so you should give it chance.
  12. i used engine paint good for temps up to 150Celcius. the real heat paints that resist up to 650Celsius have to be heated to about 100C to harden and for that reason aren't the best choice. Normal spray paint shold do the job to tbh. it is all about the amount of layers and time you take to do it propperly.
  13. 5 killed confirmed, the damage is from plowing into the crowd trying to get to the royal family sitting in the open bus. nobody understands why and what he was trying to do... hitting a bus with a Swift wouldn't have done a lot at all... when i saw it on tv i really thought he would have explosives on him and gonna blow himself up next the the bus with ALL the dutch royalty.. f*cking sicko... just heard that the guy in the Swift died last night in the hospital.. that's getting of way to easy..
  14. today is queensday, usually very festive and happy but not today: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_U17aqfjGs
  15. I must agree Jules, all upgrades in an on your car should be A quality and installed propperly. Don't cut corners on things like seats/seatbelts just fot the price, better don't buy them at all then. The seats from recaro/sparco/bride and the likes are priced like that for a reason, they are tested and approved. That costs money, simple as that. and correct installation is essential ofcourse! How are things coming along Bourkey?
  16. in the netherlands they arne''t common at all and i hope it stays that way. a big reason for this them being RHD i think, for lots of people it''s a reason not to get one, happy with that yesterday was at a shopping mall and on my way back to my car i see this guy totally checking out the V, so spoke to him and he was really chuffed to have seen a V in the flesh, guy new all about glanza's. So i asked what he drove and he showed me a minted RX7 that was parked up a bit further. it's nice to get this kind of attention from propper car enthusiasts
  17. keep it going idrees gonna get there !! and what could the ninjaplans be??? td04?? hybrid?? can''t wait!!
  18. egg, made me lol but loss of torque due to fitting a decat? sorry for hijacking..
  19. ok some real updates: got myself a decat, manifold and HKS actuator so knwo waiting on the gaskets and want to get en Dual EBC. should see some nice gains i think
  20. Congrats Jag, welcome to the turbo side i really understand how your feeling, just knowing that you gonna have boost soon
  21. i have had T1S before. anyway everybody has there own opinions.
  22. T1R should have some better grip in wet conditions, i am running on T1R at the moment and am happy with them. T1R is in all fairness also a rather old tyre, in the mean time there is R1R that is very good in the dry, its like a combo between T1R and the R888's. The pricedifference in The Netherlands is so small i would make the switch to T1R tbh.
  23. please look around on the forum and especially the wiki part. these questions are almost a weekly accorunce and thats why the UKSC made up a few articles, so here you go: Click me
