Today a registered forum member on here ( not subscribed yet ) had his Skyline GTR on the rollers , its been a long time in the build at TR and is being run at ten of the best as a tribute to Tweeny Rob and to His Father who both passed away sadly this year .....anyway i got this message and thought if anybody wanted to wish him luck at the coming event then they could do so .... Car on the rollers... Made 810bhp at the wheels at 1.65 bar and 8000 rpm. Mapped all we could until crank sensor is installed and setup tomorrow, as expected the CAS was a bag os shyte for mapping decent power. Should allow us to run it up to 2.2 bar and 9600 rpm... …

Any1 who knows the answer please help... yesterday I purchased a car with a private plate already on.... I want to transfer my private plate... the question is... do I have to remove the old one in order to put mine on or can i transfer direct to the car without paying to remove the old one...? I do not want the existing plate thanks!

How much would it cost me to get a lamp post moved about 2 meters? As it is just on my drive way and my mum like to drive into it...:lol: Oh and who do I ask??

A mate of mine has just recently picked up an old Mazda RX7. Ita an X-plate, mk 1. Has been in storage for ten years, all mot`s since birth, including receipts, SH etc for that era. New mazda engine fitted in 92. Very, very clean and original. Going up for her mot tomorrow, and all going well, should walk through ! Reg is OCS 716X if anybody wants to check ? He is not a big fan of it, so would like to sell it on, only hasnt a clue what to ask for it. Says its too good for Ebay as its only had one previous owner !! Any ideas ?? All suggestions welcome. Sensible ones !! Alan..............

I changed the oil and filter on my son's Pug 306 1.4 tonight and the oil filter disintegrated when I tried to remove it :eek: How long has a paper element type oil filter got to be in a car before it gets to that stage - Jeez. He's only just bought the car - wonder what else is in store for us?

I suffer from insomnia but lately it's been really bad. I literally haven't slept since last thursday. I really don't know what to do as I can't think clearly am a danger to others and getting very snappy and confused, which isn't like me at all. I've tried all the sleeping advice but it just doesn't work, the Doctor's aren't really any help as I used to take zopiclone sleeping pills but manged to get addicted to them - twice, so now don't know what to do. If I don't sleep soon i think ill go mad.......

I am about to sell my car but I want to keep my private reg, what form do I need to fill out does anyone know? I understand I cannot let the car sell until the reg has been confirmed that it is on retention? Cheers, Dan

In light of the Haye vs Klitschko match, just invented Sambuca boxing. Each head shot = 1 shot of sambuca. Gotta love it

Well after a few years without a Zed and pining for my last car ever since I sold it, I have bought another, Turbocraigys former Zed is now residing safely and cleanly in my garage :)

Just for fun, which nation and why would you say builds the best cars?

Here's a controversial one for a Friday afternoon... It's not meant to offend and is more tongue in cheek, but I look forward to the reaction! ------------------------------- So what is a sports car and what isn't? Is it just me who thinks that the majority of people have no idea at all? Do all these people driving 2 door saloons (thinking that they're "sports cars") make you laugh...or sick? Any Porsche (except the Cayenne), Ferrari, Lambourghini, NSX, GT-R, Z32/Z33/Z34, RX-7, Z4, SL, R8 etc. is most definitely a sports car. An Audi A5 Coupe, 3-series coupe etc. most definitely is not! Even the much vaunted M3 is simply a souped up 2-door saloon …

here is the proof:shock::shock::shock: [YOUTUBE]K2Ht4VNtyxw[/YOUTUBE]

Probably out of date now ? Alan.....

So how fast does your cat go? Think I may have set an unofficial record on my way upto Scotland. As I'm working away and the missus is off for her summer hols, there was no one about to look after the cat. After a little grovelling I pursuaded my folks that the cat would be no bother to look after and they can drop him back to me 6 weeks from now (bit like a summer holiday for my cat). Only problem was getting him up to Scotland! I was absolutely amazed - put the cat in his little travel box, stuck a few cushions underneath the box so he could see the horizon and six hours later, he hadn't made a single squeak. Personally, I'm convinced he likes being in the Zed…

1. People who point at their wrist asking for the time... I know where my watch is pal, where the hell is yours? Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the toilet is? 2. People who are willing to get off their a** to search the entire room for the TV remote because they refuse to walk to the TV and change the channel manually. 3. When people say "Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too". Damn Right! What good is cake if you can't eat it? 4. When people say "it's always the last place you look". Of course it is. Why the hell would you keep looking after you've found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they? 5. When people say while watc…

Missed the breakfast show, but heard him on Simon Mayo tonight talking about the film 'Rendezvous' he's sitting down to watch before dinner tonight and googled it when i came in. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlPfilnRDuI Also had to google the making and research wikipedia as Chris said it was in a Ferrari GTB and i couldn't work out why the film is out of sync with the sound! ...Turns out it was a Merc with the sound dubbed afterwards...Still a great piece of film though. Not a big ferrari fan but here's some nice photos from his event.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/shows/chris-evans/photos/galleries/6903/11/?Template=photos.tmpl&attrib_…
