They have there propergander machine, the internet. People hear about it and then go and download the video or share the video and it spreads across the world in minutes. Thats more than most TV stations can do.

Highest mileage ever
There was a car on Ebay a few year ago which said had 3,000,000 miles on it. :eek: My dad knows some one who bought a new Honda bike to do courier work on. He did 66,000 miles in 1 year. Honda in Japan bought the bike back at full price. :confused:

Highest mileage ever
I am the 7th owner :eek: I actually think I owned it for the longest. In its early years it was a company for a firm in Scotland, so it got passed from manager to manager and was probably used on a lot of long distance trips. Hence the high mileage and lots of owners. Good thing about a company car though that is got serviced at all the correct times and the book got stamped.

I have 170,000 miles and I have no history of a rebuild any and the pistons which where took out where standard size and grade. It could have a rebuild though. I will never know ;)

Fao Mac
Nope, it never was, the sound was something completely different. Front wings, engine bay, bonnet headlight panel and bumper are purple. And it looks better than I imagined. I was going to post a pic but they all come out blue :confused:. Its a bit hard to find time to do it working 10 hour shifts and have the space with the use of a half full garage. But Im getting there ;) I think there is a problem. I have used up 15 QUID of optimax and I have driven 0 miles. But she's idling well and sound great. Sorry mate. Didnt think you would mind.

Where is your car? I thought it was finished but we have heard nothing since. What you doing to it now?
-
Never heard so much BS
I thought you knew that mate. Its like the padded seatbelts adding another 30bhp.

Fit HID headlights and get 3 points and £50 fine!
I heard that Xeon lights have to be self adjusting and cleaning. That is why alot of new Japanese imports which have Xeons are taken off when they enter this country. The Japanese cars dont have to be self adjusting and what not, but they do in Europe.

The definition of too far :eek:
When my dad had a heart by-pass operation, there was a 30 year old body builder in the bed next to him recovering from a heart operation because he took so much steriods. Does wonders for somethings, but the amount some people take, they will be regretting it later in life.

Judder at speed
Tracking, wheel balance, wheel bearings, take your pick. Check the cheapest first.

A couple of nice on track pics from Trax
I like that Z with the red wheels. Very nice.

Crazy prices !!.........
My dad owned a 1989 Porsche 911 and he has admitted that the Z is better in virutally all catagories.

Shaun Of the Dead
I didnt think much of it either. Some of the visual effects where good thought. About half way through I found myself looking at my watch every 5 mins wondering how long the film has left to go,.

Buzzing and dip in revs!
When did the BOVS go on? I am sure if they are not on correctly or are leaking, they will cause the car to stall

NZR: PC builder guru's - a question ...
years ago you could but top of the range and then a year or so later upgrade it by just changing the chip. Nowadays you cant. they change the format of the chips so quickly now that if the format you have is sill around a year later, you are very lucky. For example the 940 pin and 939 pin chips, both made by AMD but the 940 pin layout was dropped in under a year for the new 939 layout, which may remain for a year or may go in 6 months. You can get the lastest spec, but it will only be for a few months, and you will pay a lot more for that little extra speed. I bought my chip for £145 about 18 months ago with in a year the cost was down to £50. But there was a time when my chip was the best you could buy, and the chip alone would have cost you £250-£300.

Door Panel Removal (when you cant open the door!!)
I dont think you can mate with out damaging the door. I think you can get the door handle off but not the door card.

NZR: PC problems.
I use Zonealarm. Its simple to use and has done me well. I have the paid one becasuse I use internet sharing and such and I need the pro version. They also do a free version link below http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/company/products/znalm/freeDownload.jsp?lid=zaskulist_download Very simple to use and of course is free. I suggest that if all you doing is normal surfing and not using connection sharing. If you need a virus checker, AVG do a free virus checker. Again does the job but its not customable, ie scan what you want or set schedules. All it does is live check or a while disc scan. Link below http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php/doc/2/
