    Cars contents don't corner so well?

    in honesty is she didnt kill you by hitting you she would kill you by mauling for giving her such a big fright. i'm guessing the beer must have been pretty fizzed by the time you opened it. a bit like winning the grand prix except with beer and not champagne.

    Cars contents don't corner so well?

    actually newton's third law of motion states that for every force applied there is an opposite force. this means apparently that a fly flying into a train when it is moving, actually stops it. although in practice the fly just goes SPLAT.

    Best LSD to run

    i am pretty sure some guy in sweden did this with a golf GTI. it was in a redline magasine some time back. what he got out of it was over 1000BHP but the thing was scary as ****. an audi block, 4WD, but it was smaller than your average turbos. i'll have a wee look at the article and then come...

    What happens if you put petrol in a Diesel engine?

    ooh, i would love to see a petrol engine go bang due to not putting in the right petrol. so long as its not my car. would be quite cool seeing jeremy clarksons hate for diesel. he probably would love to do it. Enjoi

    Cars contents don't corner so well?

    hehe, what the hell was a can of emulsion doing open in the back of your car. and no, emulsion doesn't clean out of car upholstery very well. not done it with car carpets but certainly got enough on the carpet of the room which i was painting. flur and eggs all over the plce, ass some sugar and...

    What was the best decade for cars?

    unfortunately for me i dont think i shall ever drive diesel. i once had to drive a diesel for an hour, one of the ford focus's, and i came close to crashing it just to be rid of it, it sounded like a van and honestly didn't like me. then again im a petrol guy which means shifting in to first to...

    drifting in a front wheel drive?

    if you can call automatic cars cars i guess, however, drag racing all depends on smooth gear changes and a very fast and powerful 1st gear initial acceleration. which unfortunately is not possible in an automatic car. thanks for the compliment Waynne. PS powersliding is as it states, its a slide...

    Changing down through the gears.

    If small wheels were faster...

    hah, i knew you would start this debate with a couple of cards up your sleeve. i know that due to the size of them more power should be able to be transferred from driveshaft to wheel meaning quicker acceleration. but i cant see them being brought in to production. look at the amount of...

    What was the best decade for cars?

    deisel cars still stink and are unbearably noisy to me. best period of cars was the 1990's. the mazda rx-7, honda civic, nissan skyline, toyota supra and the nissan silvia's, all of these cars make drifting what it is today, and they all look so damn sexy not forgetting the honda integra as well...

    drifting in a front wheel drive?

    im sorry, its just not possible, what you call drift in a front wheel drive car is in fact what is referred to as a powerslide. it is not drift, i repeat drifting is not possible in a FWD car. thats what makes it so unique to the RWD cars which can actually do so. sorry to burst everyones...

    A video of a drift car on fire

    looks like a skyline. i wonder if the only way to access the boot to get that fire extingusher out is by removing the boot and spoiler. very interesting though, guy was trying to hard it seems to catch up with the guy in front. Enjoi

    Whats the best colour for a car?

    i have to say its a toss up between dark, glossy green with a glossy black hood if i had to pick my colours at a paint shop, or custard yellow. brilliant white is very nice too, you know the white which integra type r's come with. that and a black bonnet is very nice. Enjoi

    Changing down through the gears.

    haha, tricky one, i know i got taught to go all the way from whatever gear you were in right down t first but thats just stupid. i tended to coast a lot when i was driving, if i got too slow i put it in to second. i never used first xcept from when i was starting. i did get taught to do achange...

    If small wheels were faster...

    haha, i'm back, after a long time without remembering password and user name. thanks for the email Waynne, even if it was probably posted to all inactive member. anyway, to get to the point, there is no way that 13 inch rims could be better performance wise. there is too little rubber on the...

    Car mats can seriously damage your car!

    if thwey were standard then you could have claimed the expense of a new gearbox on the insurance surely.

    Pop up headlights

    is there any way of getting a car with your standard front lights to have pop up headlights. i love the old 180sx and the ae86 and the old rx-7's because they looks so sweet with the pop up headlights but its getting increasingly difficult to find a car with them already as part of the car. i...

    Modifications List

    how do you start off a list of modifications that isnt going to run your credit card/wallet/bank account/savings through the floor? do you do it gradually or do you just get everything in one go and then pay off one big lump sum?

    Two Tone Paint

    What are peoples thoughts on cars which have a white main body and a black hood, roof and bonnet, or the other way around? could of course work for any pair of colours but i prefer the balck and white combination. also do you think that a paint job like this would attract too much unwanted...

    Is the Honda Integra Type R a rear wheel car?

    as previously stated in the topical phrase of this post i was wondering whether the honda integra is a rear wheel drive vehicle. if not is there any chance of making it into a rear wheel drive car? or is this operation simply too complicated and too expensive to be worht it? TTT

    Skyline Modifications

    love the fact that you said 'only 600bhp' nocturnal. sounds like your under rating your power just a tad. most people would be happy with half of what you have.

    What is the Best car to drift in.

    of course drew, the hardest part about the whole thiing is getting somewhere to practice. i mean there arent that many wide open spaces around that are flat enough to learn how to drift on and i would never consider learning on the road. just too risky. what may be possible is that if there are...

    See Through Wheels

    At the SEMA showin January or something clear wheels where present. They are made of Lexan which is the same stuff that bulletproof glass is made out of. Does anyone have large enough brakes to make these look good or are they a complete waste of time? For a picture of them look at Redline...

    What is the Best car to drift in.

    thank you xavier. but waynne is right. drifting shall end up with the big corporate machines sucking the life from it. which is of course where amateurs come in. it is after all amateurs who become pros. and it is the divers not the company that makes the sport. F1 drivers become greedy but if...

    Heel and toe gearchanges

    is double declutching not when you change into neutral before changing into the required gear. heel-toe is particularly useful when drifting. or at least according to the films i have seen of the pros in action. Enjoi

    Gear change and throttle control

    was the comment about spam directed towards my comment? :( well i'm flattered that you took time to reply. when you talk about weather of course factors such as the amount of water on the start has to be taken into account. you cannot just put the pedal to the metal otherwise your wheels will...

    Gear change and throttle control

    noticing that you are a site admin i would believe that you would be the one to supply us with tips. but throttle control depends on the surface of the road. if you change gear and put the pedal to the floor then you ted to scrape the chassis of your car if its a rough or bumpy surface. on most...

    Who are the worst drivers on the road

    perhaps we shouldn't forget the boy racers who think that they are so cool in their 1.1 pugs. those guys are ridiculous. you would think that there are more ways to mod your car than installing an exhaust which is too big to fit properly under their chassis. on cars which are performers then its...

    What is the Best car to drift in.

    seeing that drifting came from japan i am happy that the best drift weapons come from japan. its not good when something becomes a pawn in the giant commercial workings of huge corporate companies from countries such as america. which by the way have a better drift scene than britain which i...

    Kumho Drifing Tyres

    thank you. but seriously. i was watching the Saab dem team and they looked pretty cool. but can you imagine mr ken 'smoky' nomura in those kumho tyres. top speeds without the whole thing being airborne and neck aching.

    Newbies- introduce yourself here

    why is it that the irish seem to have so many 86's? on the lookout for a 200sx or one of the silvia range. any clue on how much insurance is for one of them? bearing in mind i only got my license this year.

    Kumho Drifing Tyres

    maybe to get drifting into the spotlight they should get a sort of show in which drifting legends from around the world drift with tires that give off different coloured smoke as a spectacular display of chemical ingenuity and pure waste of cash.

    hi all

    i am the two tone tribe. just like to say that its good to be among like minded people. i am based in glasgow so if anyone can tell me about car meets, drift courses etc etc it would be much appreciated. drifting only. not interested in boy racing.

    Drifting courses

    change that thread. are there any drift tracks that are open to the public for less than £125 for 20 minutes of driving. what do you do in 4 hours if all there is is 20 minutes driving time. thats ludicrous. i know the theory behind drifting the problem is putting it into practice safely

    What is the Best car to drift in.

    the supra is a rwd drive car i think and thats got -plenty of engine power so with a few tweaks here and there with uprated suspension and the like you have a ready to drift car which looks the bomb. but to be honest it will always be the nissan 200sx for me.

    Where is the best place to learn drifting?

    where are there drift clubs around in scotland. i know that knockhill in ayr has a track but im njot sure if they allow you to use it for drifting. what other options are there except car parks. bad idea using a beach by the way. serious damage to the engine if sand gets into any of your moving...
