Use the manual adjustment bit on the headlamp itself dude!

Females generally are!

You need some more posts first, 200 or 250, can't remember which off the top of my head.

I like places like that!

Which vaccum bleeder have you got? I kept looking at the Gunson Eezibleed but kept reading their caps don't fit our cars and I'd have to fork out again for a universal one that might not even do the job... To be honest yesterday we spent more time getting the thing on axle stands and the wheels off/back on than the actual bleeding, one each wheel once we couldn't see any more bubbles we pumped the pedal three times to be sure it was just fluid coming out so I'm fairly sure that at that point it was pretty much free of air until the first press and depress of the brake pedal once all the bleed valves were done up to test. That's the theory I have in my mind anyway!

HID kits are only any good with purpose made projectors, mine I think look ace, though need to aim adjusting (too low currently) but that's a job for when I can actually drive my car...

Let us know how it goes! Third time lucky maybe?
-
I don't like the wheels!
-
Nothing short of epic that build!!
-
See for what I want that's already more power than I have in mind, if as you and others say the stock internals are happy to take even more then that would be me sorted power wise as I'd not need any more really!
-
Yeah, plus when we bled them it was only the rears that any air bubbles came out of and they were pretty immediate as if they were sat at the bleed nipple end of the line which to me would suggest it's getting in from there maybe? If it turns out to be that then that'll go down as one of the biggest differences made for such a small amount of being wrong if that makes sense! Small amount of air causing such an impact on the pedal I mean. If it works then it's £6 well spent.

Milf hunters paradise then!
-
That would work!
-
A friend of mine has a boosted 1600, used an eBay kit about 10 years ago, still going today!
-
It's the only thing I can think of really, there's nothing else we spotted and three sets of eyes you'd think would have spotted any other leaks etc. First pump of the pedal after bleeding was decent then it got worse from there. Even though my mate said he only noticed the nipples ( ) on the rear weeping during bleeding I'll swap all four.
-
Very low, looks cool!
-
I'm sure for someone like me it would probably be enough! But I do know someone who works at Midland Turbo so could probably get the parts a bit cheaper then it would be a case of fitting and mapping. Wouldn't be cheap by any means.
-
If they survive the fire! On a more serious note, ordered some bleed nipples last night, should have them tomorrow, will swap and bleed again and hope for the best.
-
I think you can pull it off on a budget as long as the key parts aren't silly cheap, race tech offer a basic turbo kit starting at around £1500 using a reconditioned blower.
-
That would be cool! While you're at it mines a short back and sides please!
-
That would be different!
-
For cheap and cheerful I would concentrate on making it look good rather than go fast. Really depends how much you're willing to put into it. Over the years I've seen car have thousands spent and were only worth 10% of what has gone into them to start with.
-
Be money well spent if you're keeping the car though!
-
Having thought about it some I'm thinking the rear ones are drawing air in for whatever reason, could be that! @philgor, followed that very procedure and had wound the pistons back on the rears before fitting, I think both cables have stretched to be honest.

Looks wicked mate!
