Thumbs up Ressurect an old thread

I have been around here a long time and i have read a lot of threads ...

Some stick in my mind some not so much

BUT

For anyone who has only joined up in the last 5 years or so, they have missed out on some absolute doozies on this forum.

So get off bookface and get back on here where real internet stories really began.

Here is one of my all time favourites.

Please only dig up locked threads so the mods don't have a cow closing them down

K-GO !

That one was a good'n..

Some of the edit vs unichip stuff springs to mind as well. Many of those were crackers.

Rob Herrod & Peter Luxon court one would have to take the cake.

This was the worst thread as nothing ever eventuated from it. HM knew there product was flawed if airbox and tune was added, Bluepower knew what that no one just gets headers, but HM wouldn't have it.

There have been some doozys, some of Hulks earlier threads before everyone started hating him were awesome. He actually had some great concepts but didn't come across so well

How the hell did that thread go for 10 pages without a result. I feel as though I just wasted a few hours reading that. I wish someone had ruined the surprise that there was no ending on that one!

They actually offer two types of 4 into 1 headers, and the old tri Y's. Interesting to note in the comments they originally only offered a tri Y style. They even took offence to the original post, when the original post didn't specify who's tri Y's were replaced.

Not sure if ever it was a thread, or even on here; but there was a thread/photochop on a motorcyle rider, with his pillion passenger who was a nautral skinned American lady.
She had rather a large behind, and the pics that people chopped and added to it were absolutely hilarious!

Ok, back on topic..........

Pot Beige, Dazzler.

I refer you to T & C #6: " Posts that are deliberately argumentative or which fail to respect the opinion of another member."

Give it up or i'll give you a break.
