then dont come into the thread

Just thought i'd add my ride....
It's a 4th Generation Honda Prelude....
Wanted one since i was 14 and at 36 i finally get one....

1997 Nissan Skyline R33 GTS25t
Wishlist:
2002 Nissan Silvia S15 Spec-R Aero
(Photos on backorder, I'm not at home.)

Here are my toys:
(deep breath) 2004 Alfa Romeo 147 5-Door Lusso 1.9JTD Multijet
Bought the 140bhp diesel because it accelerated better than the 2.0 Petrol, and I couldn't afford the insurance on the 3.2 V6!!
But the main toy is the 1996 Yamaha Thunderace:
Spookily, this is 140bhp as well, but goes rather better than the car does!
Apologies for the pathetic pic of the bike, realised when looking for one I haven't got a decent pic. Have to sort that out this summer!

Not actually got any pics to hand at the moment.
When at home in Cyprus I drive a Mitsubishi L200 truck, when working in the UK I drive a Toyota Yaris (55 MPG currently unlike the amazing ~28 from the truck lol).

1993 Infiniti J30. 171.000 miles on that baby and as reliable as ever. Oh yea, that's my second J30. The first one had a bit of a dishonorable discharge something to do with rear wheel drive, a wet pavement and a cement guard rail. Note how my stupidity isn't added to the list

2006 black acura TL type S ..
Edit: Heres a pic.. Tried to get that driving by look with the streaks, but.. Camera phones suck.. lol ..

Here's what I'm driving these days...
I think the tires or something need balancing though. So it's in the shop.

"Elvis" - my truck!!! Sad to say though, it's not "green-oriented."

2002 Porsche Boxster S

Yeah, I just got some 19" low-pro's for it, and HKS headers, exhaust and intake.. also replaced the springs and coils, lowered it 2.25 inches in the front and 1.25 inches in the back.. other than that.. nah .. well .. I did shave off the front acura emblem, along with the emblems in back.. but other than that, not really... not YET anyway.. <eye's that turbo he saw.. >

yeah my first post, I drive a 2006 Toyota Matrix Xr.
The Good
The Bad after a movie I came out to this!!! And only 4 weeks after I bought the car!!!

my ride beats all of yours!
1996 Vauxhall Corsa Trip (1.2L)
only costs £950 a year to insure too... (hate being 17)

I win... mine is like that... same color too

the second one..lol.
word of advice, if you get one, NEVER i repeat..NEVER point your laser at your camera. i did it to my old SDA (with an even weaker laser) and it literally burned the camera. This is an old picture i found showing the burn marks, look at the pop can...
haha..poor sda...thats machine abuse!
i was always inclined to buy a laser..the blue/red looks cooler
but i need to do some research..they say its more "burnable"
as for the kaiser camera capability lets wait till the video drivers emerge
maybe it will improve the speed and maybe..just maybe improve the pictur quality
*fingers crossed*
oooh oooh...
btw i had the same foldable clock/alarm u have in the background
(behind the beer can)
that is untill my drunk gf launched a badly aimed dart at it...

Dude these concepts always look the same. Why do these concepts often have "flat" buttons. Why do they appear to be paper thin?

That models looks crappy anyway. And hey there is not even an X2 for sale yet.
I thought "Rachael" was going to be X5, since SE was going to skip the X3 and X4 due to cultural connotations?

according to leaked info, rachael will be the x3, probably kiki will be the x4. so x5 is free but as the x2/3/4 are not released yet i dont think they will be making a x5 at the mo or in the near future.
the X5 has been out for ages

----------------------------------------------------------
lol i agree most of em look the same, but i do believe future phones will be in a form of whats in the pic, remember the futuristic vehicles which were just concepts a few years ago? 2009 those vehicles are real, just imagine what the phones will look like in 2015, who thought that we would have gps, cameras and be able to watch movies on our mobiles lol, i welcome those flat buttons anytime, once the keyboard is decent... razr had it, but what blown the razr away was the fact that all motorola sold was a thin phone with no functionality, now they wanna play catchup with the razr v8 and v9, too late now...
once the designers and makers get it right, i bet flat buttons can be just as great as raised buttons
its a nice concept, i bet if this was revealed by SE the entire universe would be drooling on their keyboards over this, but hey, its only a concept
haha~flat?thin? Because some one just fabricated it by "photo shop" ,not by CAD,
remember the razr flat and thin style was the wow back then, when every phone was a 'brick'... now what? the iphone is thin, i wont be surprised if apple doesn't release an iphone with a flat keyboard either...look at the kiki, u can bet those buttons are gonna be kinda touch surface of some kinda new innov...
if it can be a thought, it was either done or it can be done

Maybe someday I will get a better paid job and actually be able to afford me a TVR
When I was in university in NY, I used to drive a 1995 Toyota Camry.
That car lasted about a year. I drove recklessly back then and almost got myself killed in an accident. The Camry was totaled.
For about 5 years, I drove a 1997 Ford Taurus. Adopted defensive driving habits. Led to zero-accidents and generally less stressful times behind the wheel.
I moved from the US after graduation so I gave the Taurus to my cousin. He completely wrecked it after a couple months. Sigh...
I'm looking to move back to the US in the next few years. Will probably get some sort of compact SUV. (I'm now married and my wife is expecting twin boys in Feb.) Perhaps a Toyota RAV4 or a Ford Escape.
I drive a Toyota Tacoma - Double Cab 4x4 2007.
Also a Honda Civic 2008.

How is this relevant to the HD2?
Behold!
amazing! very very nice
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEET very retro ma man cool
Cool
this has got to be one of the most innovative accessories ever =) i have to ask: where can i get one? again, well done mate!
cheers
This one must be the one and only accessory we would need for our HD2. We should name it "How to turn your HD2 into HD7".
amazing :-D can you send me one?
found some in ebay, did a search and they're around 20 or so bucks from the uk or hong kong =)
a little curious though. the iphone's back surface is more "glossy" which imo works well with the plunger. given that the hd2's back is not the same, wonder if this will affect the plunger clinging on the surface...
I wonder what I will tell security or customs at the airport when they find this?
That's probably one of the longest crap for someone to sit through and thought that a plunger is the perfect novelty idea for a phone's kickstand
Very creative
OMG, this is iGreat!!!!
You can find it on Amazon for $6-7 a pop. It's sold by Perpetual Kid. It was originally designed for the iPhone but I bit the bullet and bought it to use for the HD2 and it works perfectly.
£4.99 incl P&P form Amazon UK, just ordered one thanks
That looks great!
How long does it stand?
Because I read on Amazon.co.uk the following review:
"But I haven't been able to make this thing work for periods longer than 5 minutes. Might be because I'm using it on an iPhone 4? Slightly disappointing and not that cheap. "
Does it fall off after 5 minutes? Or does it work for hours?
shouldnt it be white?
finally got one, found it being sold in a apple store quite near (5 bucks).
the good news: it does work on the hd2 despite my previous concern on the back surface not being as glossy as that of an iphone's
the bad news: if you were to stick the plunger towards the middle, expect it to pop out in like 5 or less minutes. must be the weight that's pulling down given the "angle". thus, i wouldn't recommend plugging it to give a 30' view. i plugged it towards the side giving it a 10'-15' view and it stayed on for like 2 hours (i think).

Thanks for the update Robson!
That makes things clear for me; I don't buy it. It's to dangerous if it falls down when I put it in a train or something. I don't want to take the risk. And I also don't want to make a profession of applying a iPlunger It should just work 100%, easy.
Sad to hear because it looked like a cool thing to buy for my HD2.

[Discussion][Q&A][Help] General Motor Discussion.

Hey guys,
I've been having some problems with one of my petrol mowers lately, I've visited a number of different forums, but no-one seems to answer or even get the question you're asking. No matter how simple or well-worded it is.
That's why I decided to make this thread, because we're not all computer-freaks, but some of us are mechanics, others are electromechanics, while most others are software- and app-developers.
I guess I'll start off with my problem, because I really need help..
(This is just copied from a different forum, where I asked for help..)
A few days ago, my lawn mower (Briggs and Stratton Quantum XM-50) almost ran out of oil, to which it then turned off (I hadn't touched it). The next day, my Granddad bought me some synthetic oil, which I then poured generously into the motor - After that, because it's a habit of mine, I pulled down the accelerator and then gently pulled the cord so the oil could smoothly run across the piston.
About an hour later, I tried to start the engine, it just kept miss-firing and didn't want to start. I tried over and over again, for about an hour.
Then, with all my might, I pulled the cord and the carburetor caught fire!
I'm actually quite scared to even get near the cord, as of now, so I just put it in the shed and pulled the spark plug.
I really need to mow the lawn and I can't afford a professional repair or a new lawn mower, that's why I'm asking for help, as how I can get the lawn mower going again and maybe even how I could get a little more performance out of the motor.
Click to expand...

Happy discussing and please help Lol.
Have a wonderful day! (No, I'm not on Drugs. I'm hungry...)
Did you pour it in the oil reservoir or the motor?

I know the briggs and stratton engines (used to work on them lots) it sounds like your carburettor is sticking or the float has a small hole in it, you need to strip it and clean the jets out and check the float . It's quite a simple job (about 20 mins)

Hmm. I cleaned the carburetor the other day.
But I got a bit scared while starting it and the starting mechanism broke. Lol :laughing:, once I've got a new one, I'll report back
