  1. Flipping ek that was ages ago as well sorry. Like the gold ting. Very nice
  2. Goin back to ya wheel nuts. For most fancy pants nuts (tapered) yes you will need tegiwa adapters. And no you don't use the adapters with spacers. The wheel studs aren't long enough.
  3. Good stuff mate. Wow the wheels look amazing. Good choice!!
  4. Might even take it off you if the price is right. Just for something shiny on my dashboard
  5. Yeah just a bit of being more than anything. Should all be spliced in at the ecu in the foot well if you want to remove it

    one working week of ownership... one scrape round rear bumper corner. one key line down drivers side. one hella wobbly idle and limp mode ( thank god for torque pro has sorted that for now, slightly worried now ive found forums full of bad news abouit mazda diesels. shame i didnt find the info when i looked before buying)
  7. I like to oil my big spanner and put it in the tool box. Just to keep it safe n that
  8. Well what ya messing about at then get to it. Or at least silicone it on for bling..Edited cus I decided to read after I post instead of before.. clever! Which bolts stuck tom?? Drillable?? I had to do one of mine was not too bad a job. Not great either mind.
  9. Bit of a posh kit that. Can I ask what's the benefit of decent cleaning products?? I always use triplewax products. Seem good to me and cheap. Should I treat the car to some nice goodies like yours?
  10. Very nice bet that shifts!
  11. Ha well I'd have to say it to you that's quite excessive. Mind you PB needs pampering. My blue paint hides the dirt so good. All the sponge haters will be glad to know I have a wooly wash mit now. And I used two buckets.. see I do listen
  12. Washed the car tonight lookin spanking!!!! What is up with people who say "your always washing that car" ?? 3 people said it to me tonight and I thought about it. Last time I washed it was for japshow. In September. So at this rate I wash the car twice annually... and that makes me some obsessed weirdo that neglects everything else all for the sake of a smear free paint job. Errm no.
  13. I wouldn't even bother mate. That looks really good and you'll never see those little spots once fitted

    is it one of these silly modern jobs where the ecu is under the bonnet like a skoda
  15. How come you got a obd2 port??? Have our wired one in yourself??
  16. My mates just done something similar in his impreza. Bit less of a permanent install but still kinda cool. May or may not give you some ideas. He says he was worried about tea leafs. Hence wanted to be able to remove it.

    What's this ya Nissan van man??? Oh dear sounds expensive
  18. Fingers crossed if it was that low on fluid. Topping up may just cure it.
  19. It'll be cool... just make sure you sort it. If it needs a thermostat or a fan switch or whatever you find is broken. Do it ASAP. It'll be a cheap fix. But I can tell you Honda don't like overheating. You'll take out the head gasket! and then it's gonna get expensive.

    Sliding doors are awesome for the family car. Already proving useful at tesco getting kids in and out loadsa room and not worrying about knocking doors. Lovein it to be fair. Still my Honda is always going to be the favourite for me but 6 bose speakers thumping my tunes out and a dash that lights up like an aeroplane c**kpit it's a nice place to be!

    Home now. I like it very civilised!! Pretty rapid to be fair as well. Comes on boost around 1500rpm and just effortlessly goes.
  22. Put the engine in an eg with a short box. That sorts out the laggy 2nd gear!
  23. Thermostat is a doddle mate. Follow your bottom rad hose to thermostat housing and unbolt it after draining of some coolant. Replace the stat and rubber seal noting it's orientation. Refit housing. Top Up bleed. Shouldn't be too bad to bleed hopefully cus there should still be coolant in the block. Just im thinking if it cools down when there's airflow then hot coolant must get to the rad. Hence why I ask if the fan comes on while your going slow or whatever. So how low is your coolant level also?? Just expansion bottle low or is the rad low aswell? 99% thermostat will fix it.
