after watching the new fast and the furious tokyo drift last night I thought i would give it a go in a large car park with nothing to crash into. Was great fun. so im after a 200sx s13 I have up to £1500 cash here waiting. anyone have one. my mate got some great video footage of the drifting. my mate in his 480bhp skyline was there teaching me. shame for his tyres though lol

I didn't watch any of the games this time, although I enjoy it when some good teams are playing I was always busy. But looks like the only time I don't watch something interesting happens! :

Nice we seem to have ourselves a Prank Caller on the landline. all weekend they have been calling hangs up as soon as you answer 5.30 morning it rang, gaylords that's all i can say. If i was to leave the phone off the hook when they do it next would it cost them until i hang up?? as the connection will still be there.

Season finale tonight! Missed the first part "Army of Ghosts" being in Russia at the time so now trying to download it in time to watch it before tonight....but it's soooooo slow...arrrrgh. :( Still prefer Christopher Eccleston out of the two new Doctor's (and Tom Baker out of the lot of them naturally :D) but have to admit that David Tennant has been really good in the role. Now all they need to do is make a really dark, gritty Doctor Who film a la Batman Begins...we live in hope! :rofl: ;)

S'funny, the car is flip blue/ultra violet but just looks plain ol blue in a foto. Took a hell of a lot of work to get it like that and I still havent polished the finish yet!! Got the koyo, brembo's etc still to fit...but thats another day. comments please...

Will there be any awards this year for JAE ?. I've not been for 2 years, were there any last year ?.

Washed and waxed the car yesterday. Got up this morning and it is covered in pine needles. The chap next door has a bl@@dy pine tree thingy. He loves it and it is his pride and joy. What can I do to kill it without him finding out it was me? Any ideas??

Check this out, I shamelessly nicked it from the mazda forum becuase I havn't got the imagination to think up my own threads. :wack: :dance: :tongue: Look at the size of this bear!! A mate sent this to me in an email from the states. Read the writing below first before looking at the pics!! The following (first two) pictures are of a guy who works for >>the US Forest Service in Alaska and his trophy bear. >> >> He was out deer hunting last week when a large grizzly bear >>charged him from about 50 yards away. >> >> The guy unloaded his 7mm Mag Semi-automatic rifle into the bear >>and it dropped a …

Due to mileage / age I think I might get my shock absorbers replaced. The car feels slightly more vague in high speed corners than it used to plus with almost 60,000 miles on the clock the shocks could probably do with replacing. Any thoughts as to what to replacen them with? I was thinking genuine Nissan ones (I'm a big fan of OE and they're cheap from Z Centre!). Any other recommendations? What about the springs - should I replace them too? And finally roughly how long should it take a decent mechanic to change them? (By this I mean what will they charge me!). Cheers ps - car is 1999 Japanese NA auto LWB.

Anyyone ever used a dremel with the polishing cottony thing attachment on their paintwork to remove scratches? Im gonna give it a go later - *REALLY* carefully as Ive been told by several bodyshops some of my fine scratches should buff out. Not sure whether to use a compound or whether it will work but may give it a go myself. I tried one of them big electric buffers (cheap) and it did bugger all.

Well it's pretty much done and i'm shocked how good it looks :) I've put about 10/15 hours into it so far, it looks like it'll run for about 7 and a half mins features footage from all the meets from this year i could get footage for (ashby folville, great northern, the boat inn, jafest, jtuner and japshow). I shall pop it on google video after for everyone to have a look at. Wish me luck, 2 mins thirty left to fill..... :smash: :rolleyes:

1. At lunch time, sit in your parked car with sunglasses on and point a hair dryer at passing cars. See if they slow down. 2. Page yourself over the intercom. Don't disguise your voice. 3. Every time someone asks you to do something, ask if they want fries with it. 4. Put your garbage can on your desk and label it "In." 5. Put decaf in the coffee maker for 3 weeks. Once everyone has gotten over their caffeine addictions, switch to espresso. 6. In the memo field of all your cheques, write "For Smuggling Diamonds" 7. Finish all your sentences with "In Accordance With The Prophecy" 8. Don t use any punctuation 9. As often as possible, skip rather than walk…

Just got back from watching Mr. Depp and his chums as pirates in the Carrib. Am I taking it too seriously or was it total sh*te ? Why is it that only the stars appear to clean their teeth :headvswal

Well teh old boy does it again. My body is going to need a week off after tomoro. I made it into all the club finals. Singles, Mens & Mixed Doubles. Would of made it into the over 35's too but I didnt go into that. Did dead good today in teh singles Semi's. Beat a 25 year old 6.2 6.2 who was expecting to kick my ass. Now all I have to do is concoct a way to beat a 15 year old in the final, pair up with him in the mens and work out a mirrical to win the mixed (partners a bit irratic) All in all my bodies going to die tomoro.
