View Full Version : I know it's sad, but...
Ok, I know it's a bit sad and immature and bound to cause friction in the long run, but i want to have a race against the BF.
I used to wipe the floor with him at traffic lights when he had his Escort, but he's just bought a Supra (non turbo) and his smugness is really p1ssing me off. :annoyed:
We're in Winsford. Where can we go for a burn up without any onlookers so I don't lose me bottle?
I think you should just drive around ... and oportunity's will arise where it is safe to boot it from low speeds to the speed limit.
Setting an exact place you may be tempted to boot it anyway even if its not safe, dont get yourself into trouble, just have some fun.
www.Santapod.com :thumbs:
There's loads of RWYB days organised and good way to prove to him who's his daddy. Just forget about the onlookers :)
Or failing that, you've got some fantastic roads between winsford and chester
buy a bren device - set it for 15+-/1 bar psi - and remmember to keep get your revs to 4K before declutching :whip: - the load causes them to drop to 3K immediately, but then you're on boost till redline, clutch->2nd, boost till redline, clutch->3rd, boost till redline. and probabley breaking the legal speed limit. SANTAPOD!
:D
chances are the supra Naturaly Aspirated also happens to be an auto.
you'll have a much better start than the supra with your manual tubby s13 if you do what I recommend at the top, but he'll start to play catch up with his auto gearbox after that. believe me, watching all the auto supras having slow starts at TSC3 was a laugh.
think you need an SR20DET in there first though ;), alternatly, what colours your silvia, sure we can swap the wheels and No. Plate on to a similar one to really wipe the floor with him ;)
Cool!
I was thinking of something off the public highway - cops having MAJOR crackdown on speeding in Winsford, loads of them about today! :eek:
Years ago, I used to go to bike shows - Kent Custom, Wales & South West Custom etc and I used to love watching the RWYB
I had no idea there was similar thing for cars - doh!
I'm quite excited... :D

Sorry to disappoint, but my baby's non-turbo :( and the supra's manual.
Tenman - how sneaky and devious!!!
I like your style. Marlin Blue btw. :D

a non-turbo sx and a manual non-turbo supra ?
where ?!
what ?!
Am I having a laugh then?
Tenman's idea is interesting.
Would be up for this for the giggle, but I think your four stud hubs and what appear (in the avatar) to be hub caps would give the game away.
Am I having a laugh then?
Can't tell - what car do you drive ? ;)
No, they really are alloys (REALLY wanna change them though, they're knackered).
Tenman's plan would have been a laugh though...
Gotta go
nite
:)

Import 1994 S14 Silvia
really really gotta go now,
nite
:D
Damn, forgot about 4 stud hubs, you need to upgrade to UK spec. S14 hubs and Calipers then
Ah, the cold sobering light of day! What was I thinking?
DAMN that red wine...
Still, at least I gave a few people a laugh.
you need to upgrade to UK spec.
Yeah, I finally got my rear discs fitted on Thurs but the guy at the garage said the discs were ONLY for my car and that no other discs would fit it - I dunno, I don't understand why mine is supposed to be so rare. Maybe because everyone gets the turbos. Shouldn't affect the wheels though should it?:confused:
I mentioned again about upgrading to UK spec but he reckons it can't be done on my car.
Something about the transmission???? :confused: :confused:
If I wanted bigger alloys, couldn't I get 4 stud ones? I keep banging on about this don't I?
Hiya Minky :wave: a good place is between Middlewich and Roberts bakery, I live in Winsford too, fancy a meet :thumbs:
Ooh ooh if we're doing a Cheshire mini-meet, I'm only just down the road in Congleton so I'll come along. :nod:
OK, as long as you're not mad axe murderers ;)
I'm working every day of the week at the mo though, so will have to be an evening.
It would be good to get some opinions on what's possible as far as mods.
My car is in need of some tlc, it's a bit of a vandal magnet I'm afraid - and no sniggering at me wheels! :rolleyes:
Actually, there's a guy down the road from me with a damson S14 and it's mint. Don't think he's on the forum though.
OK, as long as you're not mad axe murderers ;)
Shit, that rules me out then. :wack:
OK, just don't bring yer axe... :D
OK, just don't bring yer axe... :D
I've locked it away in the garage! :nod: :D
I can do tues eve for the 'micro-meet' :nod:
Where will it be?
Do I need to bring a flask and sandwiches? I am the proud owner of a tartan rug :nod:
but have given up smoking the pipe, as the nicotine was staining my sun visor :p
Erm... no idea - it was Muttley's suggestion so I'll let him name a location, but anywhere near the bakery (Gadbroke Park I think it is) sounds good to me! :nod:
C'mon Muttley, it's make your mind up time...
:)
Tuesday nights are no good for me unfortunatly, weds are ok tho, whats your prefrence, Publi car park, out of the way area, or Pub cause i was thinking "the broken cross, just down from the bakery..
I can do Wednesday :)
Wot about you Aitch?
Pub sounds good to me - is it left at the lights towards Rudheath and then turn right? Haven't been to the Broken Cross before. Do I need to wear the knuckle dusters? :p
Wednesday sounds good for me too. :thumbs:
You won't need knuckle dusters, but will I? ;) :D
I'll need directions though! :confused:

Left towards Rudheath and the pub is on the corner on the left just over the hump back bridge over the canal,
I'll need directions though!
If your coming from Holmes Chaple you`ll need to follow Northwich signs, and when you get to the big roundabout by Morrisons warehouse, kepp following the road ahead, to next roundabout ahead again, passing a petrol station (might be BP, keeps changing hands !) before the national speed limit signs there`s a junction on your left over hump back bridge, pub on left, regarding knuckle dusters, not sure never drank there before so I`ll put my baseball bat in the boot just in case :D
Erm... what time? :confused:
How 'bout 7.30?
Then it won't be too dark for me to see any axes glinting in the background :D
Hang on - wot if I"M a mad axe murderer.... :wack:
I'll check just incase...
back in a mo...
OK, I've just consulted
"THE VOICES IN MY HEAD"
and they said, er, no. Not a mad axe murderer. Not even mad.
Nope. Not me. :wack:
So, Aitch - you'll be the one with the knuckle dusters, and Muttley - you'll be wearing a baseball hat. :D :D :D
C u in the car park, last one there's a secret scooby lover.
First round's on me ;)
Cool - I'll try to be as prompt as possible - depends on how crap work is and if I need to stay late to get sorted. :thumbs:

Baseball hat :eek: :ghey: 7:30 ish sounds good :thumbs: going to look at Jim Finn`s s13 about 6ish, I`ll see if he wants to tag along too :thumbs:
What happened? I turned up at the broken cross just before 8pm and no-one was there! :cry:
Aitch! Sorry mate! We must have missed you by minutes. :(
We hung around for a bit, but ended up going back to Brutus's, cos he was having a look at Jim Finn's S13.
Nobody had your number, and we thought you must be working late. :( :(
Bugger :annoyed:
Should have given one of you my number really! :rolleyes:
Next time... :nod:
Next time... :nod:
Yup! Yup! :) :)
It was good to meet you guys, by the way! Sorry my car smelt like a tart's hankie, but I cleaned the outside and then couldn't be buggered doing the inside, so I went a bit wild with the Febreeze... :rolleyes:
New skirts! New skirts! New skirts! Yay!!!! :D :D :D :D
It was great meeting you, your car was nice and clean and perfumed :notworthy , mine looked like it had done 10 rounds with Tyson in a potato field :wack: .
I`ll post the photos when i get them off brutus :thumbs: all two of them.
