  1. Had a proper drive yesterday. Mixed roads done about 125 miles upto liverpool. First time really since retune etc. I have to say I'm impressed. Plenty mid range torque and once the high cam comes In to play it really shifts. Smashing off roundabouts in 2nd is very satisfying.. But equally motorway is a doddle. 70 in 5th. Put ya foot down to overtake and your at 100 in seconds. Those German tdis don't know what him em. I would definitely recommend these upgrades and a map to anyone else.
  2. No enticing necessary! I'll be there
  3. Hmmmmm tempting. Won't have to worry about that rusting ay
  4. Rub it in how awesome the show was why don't ya!
  5. Yeah looks tidy I guess. Not a huge fan of the carbon wrap thing now. Think I over did it before on the old mb. But still it'll do for now. Kinda makes me want a real carbon TAIL! !!!!!
  6. Yeah hope so. Gonna do wheels and boot at same time. Like say just a spare this one. Obviously just want it looking presentable so I don't feel like I have to rush the other. Gonna use it while I sort out the blistering on the original.
  7. That's normal mate I'm sure. I have same hole thought looked weird so photographed it..
  8. Got my temporary bootlid to a point where I can use it. I fudged the paint up.. well for the best part it looked really good. You will see in the pics where I didn't put enough lacquer in number plate area. But can probably polish that out. But there was a couple of runs (what happens when painting in the dark with led light) so sanded the runs out and vinyl wrapped it for now. Better luck next time. The original boot is gonna be painted same colour as wheels when I've decided.
  9. Look amazing. Clever sausage
  10. And will need to get some 1200 paper yeah? For flattening between colours
  11. I would get hose off red valve and put a bolt in it or something to plug it. Then run a spare piece of hose from valve to bottle. Obviously the valve is never gonna experience vacuum as it should. But you will see if oil is pushing out when driving
  12. Block it up on intake mani. And run pipe into a bottle see what comes through. Not ideal long term as no vac to pull
  13. Cool thanks mate. Will any grey primer do? I have plasticote grey primer already
  14. Yeah just it's 6 quid a can 😅 wanna use as little as possible
  15. Erm dunno yet. Want to get them all to this stage.. then hoping someone can tell me what to do??? That's a whole can of primer. Bit much? Either anthracite again or more than likely matt black this time I think
  16. Right on it car bonnet. Been busy sanding and filling and got one wheel primered now... So farvso good kerbing gone looking very nice a smooth etc. So what's next???? Been using this btw.. good for wheels because you can powder coat over it.
  17. She's a childminder as well 😅
  18. Is chap who did the work aware of the differences between intake and exhaust valve stem seals??? Ie they are colour coded.
  19. That's a bit naughty. If ya were trying to order drop links you would be very disappointed if ya didn't know any better.
  20. Oh. Not sure what else to say. So new stem seals on there. Oem? Or aftermarket? Hg all good?? All head bolts torqued up?
  21. Ah man sad times I like this one.
  22. Look on rimmerbros for me they have all the diagrams on there
  23. I have straight ones mate. But the bar is smaller diameter. Maybe itr has straight. Sure someone will know
