  1. I often get blinded with cars with reflector headlights that have HID's fitted.

    I more often than not get blinded by land rovers as there headlights are so high the beams go straight into your bloody eyes. Merc's are bad for that aswell, they just seem really badly aligned.

    I have NEVER been blinded by a person who has retro fitted HID's to a projector lens headlight. Its impossible. The lens focus's the light onto the point its needed. Assuming the headlight is alligned properly which, assuming you dont mess about with the alignment screws, it will be.

    When i fitted mine i drove straight to the garrage, paid to have my lights tested and 5 seconds later i was told theyre perfect. Anyone who's reponsable would do this.

    In cant see them ever implimenting this unless they overhaul the MOT rules. How can they prove you havnt also somehow retro fitted auto levelers. The celica headlights are totally covered at the rear by the plastic cowlings in the engine bay. And what can testers not do? Dismantle any part of the car. "Do you have auto headlight adjusters?", "yes", "ok then". unless they change this, which they wont, they cant enforce this as a law.

  2. Yeah AFIK theyre not active yet. Obviously we follow speed limits but when these signs are saying "Caution Que Ahead" for like 3 miles with a 50mph speed limit and you can see there isnt, your still gonna be doing 70.

    So theyre either not turned on or the DVLA dont have my address correct, which i know they do!

    Still, i gues these are better and the old arch nemesis of motorists, the average speed camera...

  3. Yes jap cars and their owners get respect from me. There are 2 exceptions from this rule however..

    1. Prius. Full stop, hey get treated like the bags of crap they are.

    2. 15 year old Toyota 4x4's. The pickup trucks are fine, its just the guly ass 4x4's that i hate.

    Anyone in a 1998 shape supra, or any kind of celica, will get added bonus points! lol

  4. I don't like low profile tyres that much, look like rubber bands lol. I actually upped my profile by 9mm web I went for 215/47/17. Looks much better in the arches and the car looks lower because arches are more full now

    Fallen are meant to be good for the price then next up Toyo which are better but about 15quid more per side

    Check camskill.co.uk and tyretraders. People rave about black circles but I find them totally overpriced tbh!

    Hth

    I always order from black circles. Tyres alone are a pretty decent price, dunno about the price of their fitting service though.
