You may laugh, but that is one serious dilemma when you're laying in bed. The need to sleep / do fuck all out weighs the need to shit..

Could be worse, could be Japan and call them all a Kiss.

[Kielan]

I keep farting, and they are honestly some of the worst smelling ones I have ever produced, my desk is right next to a main walkway in the office too, so I know others can smell it. This is terrible.

[Kielan]

Lolol. Just what you want to be smelling in the morning at work.

Oh well, that's what they get for not giving me anything to do.

What are you even meant to be doing in Sweden? The only thing I know that comes from there is Koppaberg and Koenigsegg, which leads the question. Do all their exports begin with K?

Oh and obviously Ikea

Oh and obviously Ikea
And Volvo! And Saab! (well formerly Saab).

I work here http://www.hegogroup.com/

Sports television graphics, and sports motion tracking. So like individual object tracking by identifying the object in 3D space (the new system uses 4 cameras to make the 3D space) and tracking pretty much every form of data imaginable. Can track a ball, player, etc.

Their stuff is actually used by Sky for all their F1 stuff too. You know when they do that virtual car thing in the studio? That's what this company does, makes the software that can produce stuff like that as well.

[Jorge]

Saab....
http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2012/jun/13/saab-saved-bankruptcy-electric-cars?newsfeed=true
Saab is to be reborn as an electric car manufacturer focused on China under rescue plans drawn up by a Chinese-born entrepreneur.

Dude I got here, and all I could think of was how everything looks like it's been furnished by Ikea. Probably because it has. But the airport even felt like I was walking in Ikea, fucking nuts. I'm living IN an Ikea catalogue.
Yeah def, it'll be my mission now.

Awesome sauce.
You will always find Kielan in the kitchen at partys.
I'm not sure where this is going. I am no woman.

[Anonymoose]

You muricans usually have communal shitters?

[P78]

haha

powernap ftw

euhm communal shitters?
we back in roman age?

[Kielan]

You muricans usually have communal shitters?
Lol no I mean it's like there are 3 private bathrooms here each with their own sink and what not in it.

Where as in America you go into the bathroom, there will be a bank of stalls, then there will be a communal area to wash your hands and what not.

So I just went into one of the rooms, locked the door (duh) turned off the light, and napped for 20 minutes.
haha

powernap ftw

euhm communal shitters?
we back in roman age?
:rofl I was using the wrong terminology I guess.

[stinkinrich]

We had the same at my old work. Used the toilet roll as a pillow. Shit was comfy.

[Jorge]

Shit is comfy? That's news to me

[stinkinrich]

Hell yeh you're missing out

[Kielan]

Shit is comfy? That's news to me
Yeah dude, just the right amount of firm and soft squishyness.

Glad I'm not the only one to have done this.

I used to do a cubicle with the toilet roll on top of the cistern homer simpson style naps. Then I stopped getting pissed on school days :(

[P78]

i just go down to garage, and nap in my car :-)

[michealis]

Working in a hospital means finding a bed is easy enough haha.

I've just realised how much I fucking **** public transport. Full of crying babies, school kids and old people.

[Kielan]

Dude, I cannot fucking stand public transport sometimes. I was on the subway yesterday, and there was a kid with mental disabilities having a fit, and then right behind him, literally the seat behind him, 2 fucking babies crying. Thank god I was only on that train for 3 stops before I had to transfer, otherwise there would have been certain death for a number of people.

[Jorge]

BMW fanboys, get your names down for Gaydon

[Kielan]

Finally got some shit to do here, which was nice, made the day go by much faster.

Also got approved for my press pass at Gatebil this weekend. Should be an awesome time, got a few shoots lined up as well. They say it's going to rain. If it does, I hope it fucking pours, so you can see it in the pictures, and so we get some awesome rooster tails off the back of the drift cars as they shred.

[Jorge]

Gatebil sounds fun indeed, how'd you blag the press?

[Kielan]

Gatebil sounds fun indeed, how'd you blag the press?
Sent them an email, told them I was shooting for SW (which I am), they were like ZOMG YEAH CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU THERE lol.

[Jorge]

Ah not bad, most places I talk to are like stancewhut

[Kielan]

They WORSHIP this place over here, it's incredible. I said I would be doing a write up of my time over here on SW, and I got like a million PMs on their forum. It was hysterical.

[Jorge]

As in SW:Sweden forum, or their local stuff?

I guess places like that have less of an online presence maybe? Where as here we have some people who are more the 'driving force' that SW are trying to go up against. And doing pretty well I guess.

[michealis]

Ah man I'm bored, I feel the need to buy a new lens. Thinking of maybe a 85 F1.4..

[Jorge]

Buy me a 5d2 if you like?

[sCrapp]

[Jorge]

Fucking fag Harv

[Anonymoose]

lol I knew this^ would be the talk of the day, no comment.

[Jorge]

Alfa Brera to Mini Cooper is just madness, but being the hipster he is, this is probably the attention he wants :rofl

Red wheels on the M?

[Kielan]

Should have given me the Alfa, I would have melted minds with it in the states. :rofl

[stinkinrich]

Best colour combo on the Mini they did for sure. Not a touch on the Alfa though. Still, what are the plans?

[Kielan]

So tired.

[Anonymoose]

I saw those too Jorge...seriously Harv, how the hell does your family have so many cool cars? Does you fam work in auto trading or something to do with cars? mofo I'm so jelly :rofl

[Kielan]

So I just did some math, even after all of my spending that I will be doing this summer. I will have the most money in my bank account I have had at the end of a summer ever. Just over 1 grand LOL.

[Jorge]

Time to buy something car related....

[Kielan]

Time to buy something car related....
Here's what I'm buying for the car.

500 in parts for maintenance (at dealer rates otherwise that'd be like 2 grand lol).
BWS coils.
5D2.

Chances are I'll sell my wheels before H2O, and try to get the wheels I really want for the then. :)

The rest will be saved (that grand) :rofl

[stinkinrich]

Thats pretty good going man as thats all the 46 needs to look proper sweet. Good work.

[Kielan]

Thats pretty good going man as thats all the 46 needs to look proper sweet. Good work.
Should drive incredibly well after all the maintenance is done as well.

Here's the list
Valve Cover Gasket
New FLCAs
Subframe bushings
Rear trailing arm bushings
Trans mounts
Diff bushings
New (to me) trans
New Clutch kit
Shifter bushings
Blower motor (current one is sooooo loud)

Then obviously coils will help a lot as well.

Looking forward to driving what should feel like a 50k mile car rather than a 140k mile car :rofl

[stinkinrich]

Yh mine needs valve cover gasket doing too plus front control arm bushes. Such a horrible rumble sound over bumps :(

[Kielan]

I fuckin smashed the shit out of one of my control arms so I decided why not just replace both while I'm at it.

[JonnyBoi]

the fun moment you relise you ordered cable ties and there 2.5mm thick. :rofl

Also steering wheel boss has arrived. Now to buy the wheel :)

[Anonymoose]

lol cable hairs

Damn I read that wrong Kielan, thought you said for a grand you were getting 500 worth of maintanence AND the coils, was about to reach through the screen and beat yo ass for a rebate ;)

Im sure you're streets are/were full of them, so not so desirable.

Something of a rarity over here so worth a few quid in good condition.

[Jorge]

Yeah, that is kinda cool, but not enough to actually buy it.

Exams for this week over, 3 more next week and I'm done!!

[sCrapp]

I saw those too Jorge...seriously Harv, how the hell does your family have so many cool cars? Does you fam work in auto trading or something to do with cars? mofo I'm so jelly :rofl


Red wheels were my mums choice, after she curbed them. (my dad lowered it a little more without her knowing)

Used to own several dealerships all over the kent.

Urm i know the minis boring looking in comparison, but i have logic behind the madness :s brera is dropping rapidly in money, so within a year it will be worth so little. also had it two years, and its such a shit car in every area other than looks, it just got boring. its more of an old mans car.

The mini is awesome to drive, fuck, it has potential with a little more power.
so,
Pully reduction
Remap
Milltek exhaust cat-back (save for the manifold)
----time goes bye----
IM GUNNA STANCE IT IN MORE OF A TRACK CAR WAY (Dont wanna lose drivability)
Compomotive TH's in 17x (widest)
Some sorta coilovers
Alicantra Steering Wheel

and...there we have it. Racecar. But i have a feeling the tuning thing may grow on me. its a pretty go-kart like car considering its FF.

[Minuki]

A Mini eh?

Could go well!

[Anonymoose]

WIP from Menorca.

:/

[Minuki]

What's with all the Peugeots popping up?

[michealis]

Did you see how many fucking wheels weights are on those rears?

[Minuki]

Holy fuck. I only just noticed that :rofl

[pecs]

Them rims are fucked.

[Ian e]

Thats a real beaut!!! PSML at the wheel weights.

Just washed my Pug and now its raining... that'll teach me!

[sCrapp]

Why no nice OEM looking wide arch kits for the mini? i've seen pics, but no info..

[sCrapp]

Can anyone tell if theyre real without stickers or what? Or should i just ask for a pic of the markings on the back?
http://www.wheel-whores.com/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=8851&title=rays-wheels-volk-racing-te37-17-27-27-genuine-trade-bbs-rs-rm-mk1-gti-golf-parts&cat=4

[michealis]

It is hard to tell with such small photos. Ask for detailed photos of the face of the wheel as Rays should be stamped in-between one of the spokes, that and on the mounting pad. I'm guessing if they have been painted the stickers will probably be missing from the barrels..

[pecs]

There should be markings/stamped on the inside.

[sCrapp]

Cheers guys, i'll ask for some better pics! Any specific markings i should look for?

[Kielan]

So my dates are set, going to book tickets today, now, who can get me from Stansted? :D

If that 6er had an mot i'd be on it like a rat

[michealis]

So I got very bored earlier, and having not driven my car for 2 weeks I decided to go and abuse some quiet country lanes. Said country lane soon turned into a mud road used by plant machinery going through the woods with no place to turn around, there is now so much mud and stones caught under my car it has shift locked me out of first and is hesitant to go into second :(

[JonnyBoi]

What's happening weekend 6-8? That's actually a Sunday I don't have to work!!
also love looking at my Skybet account and seeing £53, Had £15 earlier, Thank you England :)

If no one is able to then you can get basic hotels super cheap in the London area man, there are loads of them. Look at Travelodges and Holiday Inns.

Yeah this.

[stinkinrich]

Olympics dont start till the end of July, no point them whacking up prices when no ones going to be over for them yet.

[JonnyBoi]

Just what I was thinking, Who's going to come over this early for the Olympics?

[Anonymoose]

My missus goes to Poland today and prices were aiiight. The Euro football shizz is a reason for the prices to be higher at the moment though...

[Jack25]

those RCs look goooooooooood!


I went to look at a merc w108 today. VERY tempted. would need a full respray and some maintenance stuff doing for the MOT but it's only going to be about £2500 to buy. another £1000 to get it back on the road and then get it painted and start saving for lows.:eyebrows

[michealis]

Got my mother fucking Integra back, and running more power than I initially thought it would be :D

[stinkinrich]

The 39 is so easy to slide. Because its long and heavy, it doesnt just suddenly go and lose it, its all like in slow mo and you can feel it go and hold it there easy.

[P78]

won't be long before we c the "against a tree pic" rofl


oh, en lows tomorah :alright

[Anonymoose]

There will be nothing of the sort P78. Today is my last drive before it goes on the jack stands, hope this rain picks up a bit :rofl

Rich hopefully when you come up we can take a drive down roundabout blvd :cool

Getting tyres on today!

[P78]

[stinkinrich]

Drift blvd sounds fun. Lets hope for dry workings and wet slidings.

[P78]

thougth about so many things

want xenon tho, but mot is a bitch, so i'd have to do full swap (with spray and all), or take em out every year

[Anonymoose]

looking forward to this coil 'settling' / winding down :)

[stinkinrich]

[P78]

[P78]

however

the ex called that there are 3 letter from popo waiting for me

hope those aren't too heavey :(


you and me both rich

this is not gonna be the lowest gti out there

just no wheel gap

[Jack25]

Dunno about that merc now. If i get it its going to swallow up all my money for the next few months. I was supposed to be getting my motorbike license this summer so i don't know if i'll have enough to do both. :(

but i have bought my first lottery ticket ever for this saturday so if i win that i'll be legit flush

[Jack25]

... OR i could buy the merc, let it sit in the shed till autumn and still have enough to get my bike test done :alright

[michealis]

Integra will have its lows next weekend too, I can't wait to have a car sitting the way I want. Now I need to sell that Suzuki which is going to take a while..

[Anonymoose]

Jack you'll find it'll take a lot more time and money than you think :) Totally worth it imo though

Just about to go get shit done. Yay for getting to work early !

[P78]

merc > motorcycle licence

[Jack25]

Someone else put a deposit down on the merc this morning. CUNT.
