  1. Wow it's amazing how far a thread can progress in a few hours of not being on! Electric pffft it's all a crock of shit. False advertising and leading people into a false sense of security. As has been said, the emissions just to get them on the road is ridiculous. Then there's the pollution that's going to be created in making the infastructure to support them country wide. Oh and did I mention that the 'clean' electric they use to fill it up is 88.6% produced from fossil or unrenewable energy anyway.

  3. WTF are you on about chief hat? That's perfectly reasonable English, I'll break it down for you. A question was asked: "Dose anyone know if you can get such a thing as uprated trailing arms" To which I replied: "I don't think so" (as in; I don't think there is such a thing) comma "I've not seen them" (as in; I have not seen any of those of which you speak). There's a perfectly clear comma in the middle thus dismissing any notion of double negatives. Now roll yourself a fat one and chill out.

  4. Cheers dude! I'm just impressed I managed to do it on my own! Trying to arrange fetching the other set of wheels I want! Then that's the "winter" and "show" sets bought and I can then sell the 15's! Both sets will be getting colour changes but the "show" set are in a good way and can go straight on as they are to help me out!

  5. Scared of bubbles maybe?? Anyway. The thermal barrier gasket things I have. The throttle one didn't fit. So I made a stencil of my throttle and sent it off. Finally came back today. Fits perfect! Pheeeww. My stencil was ropey so pretty chuffed it came out right. Anyway gonna book a day off next week for intake etc. Then again the next week. Then some mapping action very soon. Promise some progress next week!!

  10. I'm not having a go mate, honestly. Just think it's all a massive con. And I bet that BMW set them back what, £25k plus??The solar panels however, yeah I get that idea and in their case it's a win win for them for sure. Can totally understand their decision. You say the BMW plant is powered by wind, you mean the oxford plant? That's all well n good, but the panel production plant in Swindon isn't lol. And the lorries that drive the parts too n fro ... I'd love to know if BMW and other electric cars makers, have produced a detailed analysis of how much 'bad' energy is used in the production and manufacturing and how long the electric car would have to run compared to an internal combustion engined car to make a difference. Oh and an important part I forgot, what about all the line workers farting all day while working!? I was one of them (in both honda & BMW) that's enough methane to make a rugby pitch size hole in the ozone every shift! Ha

  11. Yeah what people see in action and behind closed doors are two completely different things, if people knew the costs of producing, running and disposing of say a Toyota Prius they'd sooner run my 80's Accord! Meh, been to sleep since then! Didn't realise it was that long ago!

  16. So many car makers now have a lineup of models of different sized clones of the same shape. It's great to see Honda release something that looks nothing like anything else. I wasn't so keen on the original testing pics, but if it comes out looking like that I'd actually seriously consider buying new. ( btw. oi moderators. There's already a thread on this )

  18. Sounds good except for the fact the rears are already too low so if he cuts a coil off the front tyres are going to lose contact with the road, Maybe one off the front.

  20. Dont all shoot me but how about cutting a coil off the rears? Dont know how many coils are on them, but should be cool. In my old mk2 escort days i used to cut them in half! Bloody rock hard but looked good

  24. Oh for sure I've had plenty of opportunities to ditch Honda. But they are awesome fun cars and they do hold there own against the big boys. I been on the bumper of a 650i upto 150mph odd. Amongst other things that have been spanked. And not much would touch the eg/ek in the corners with a half decent setup.

  27. It's over fueling on over run mate. Supposed to keep the turbo spooled when coming off the throttle. Looks pretty crazy. My mate who likes his subarus had it on his last bug eye. Sounded pretty insane

  33. Lol I'm only slagging It seems a much more relaxed forum compared to others I'm on who'd string you up for not searching first, even if their search page is rrrrubbish. A hybrid system like the 918 would be amazing and something I'm sure we'll see in one of the next Type Rs. No more jokes about lack of torque I actually can't wait to drive a car that will have a respectable amount of instant power available. Hopefully we'll get normal priced cars like that in the next decade.

  42. Those bolt grip sockets got to be worth a go... Before getting well involved with drilling and grinding etc! Once you start grinding you cant go back! Might need to arrange one of these 'stuffed deck convoys' myself when we move in a few months!! Sounds a cracking idea and my furniture would be proud to travel in such style!! New rubber holds up a treat cheers for the advice lads!! Well happy!
