  1. How does it feel with the uprev bud? How does it feel compared to the stock tune
  2. Personally, thats a huge nono in my book. Tolerances are so tight that even a soft piece of rubber / plastic could seriously upset things. Weighing it up against the cost of a second hand box / rebuilding, it would make sense to pull it apart and find the offending piece. Id rather that then grop a gear or two from damage caused. Unlucky dude!
  3. Ive got 10 shotguns, various air rifles and about 1500 shotgun cartridges in my gun room atm if thats any help. If any rabbits survive i am quite experienced at making them into stews! Is that a coincidence or a codename???
  4. Sorry dude, slightly confused but do you want the bulb, or the actual whole unit as long as its clear? I have a whole unit for sale if your interested, came from a JDM model so it never had the fog surround
  5. Hell yeah. Me and Dan were planning our bios this morning amongst PMs. This is mine, we sound similar keyser! Ill warn you now that I like my space, so if I get intruders in my lone cabin they will be swiftly delt with. Im extra salty because in the apocalypse I spilt my beer, which was totally worse then doomsday. Ill fall in love too, but not show it till her mere dying moments. Well, I think we have a plan here!
  6. Dan we need this man on the team, hes too valuable to not recruit. And we still need to think of a name for this bunch of merry survivors! What about keeping it simple, : The Ninja Axe Clan
  7. Never have been that found of blue cars, but having seen a chaps blue 380rs on instagram and now this Im starting to turn to the blue side. What are these like to live with on a daily basis compared to a Z? Yours looks immaculate now
  8. Fresh paint looks gorgeous pal, Im jealous yours is done already! Please please please lots of pictures when you get her back!
  9. Question is, which one of us is going to be Rick and Negan from TWD??
  10. In the event of nuclear launch being detected on either side, the MAD protocol would be activated meaning nobody wins. Along with all the fallout and prevailing winds its unlikely you'd be safe anywhere, especially with a good dose of radiation. Rule of thumb (pun intended) is if you hold out your thumb in front of you, and the mushroom cloud is bigger, you're boned. The neighbour is a trident submarine commander and he's not been home for a while Me? Id probably pull up the deck chair, stick the sunnies on with a beer in hand and get the best tan of my life. While grumbling that the Zs not back from the shop yet, naturally
  11. Sealing the headlights after whatever method you choose to restore them is the only real effective way to keep them maintained. You cam go balls to the wall like I did and have them clearcoated at the bodyshop, only cost me £50 quid and they'll last. Will happily say mine look better then when they left the factory!
  12. I had a very similar issue when I replaced my brake lines. Got to the drivers rear line and snapped it at the union as it had seized. Wasnt overly bothed as I knew I could get it trailered down to the shop. Obviously I had no brakes due to the snapped line, but thought I could at least move it on the drive. Nope Not sure exactly what it was, but the car sensed the lack of brake fluid, threw up both warning lights that you have and locked the differential meaning the car, even under its own power wouldnt move. It was like the handbrake was on. Im not sure how related both of these are, but thought I'd offer my input. Did you disconnect the lines?
  13. Prices vary wildly so thats kinda a difficult question. Depending on condition, damage, age and what the seller feels is reasonable I'd say anything from £150 upwards. And as for your second question, a little more information is needed. Depending on the brand most aftermarket exhausts are catback, with the option of a aftermarket Y pipe. You'll probably find that most systems will meet up from the Y pipe back with little to no modifications, unless you drastically change and get a full duel system like an Invidia Gemini
  14. Hardly ideal Davey. You know that
  15. Then unless you get a sparky to wire you up a loom im afraid you wont be able to change there positioning
  16. Mines in the bodyshop too bud, I know the pain and excitement of waiting for it to come out! Liking the bonnet struts, may have to track me down a set! Do like a red Zed
  17. Looking awesome buddy! The azure blue is so nice. Just how noisy are the fans then?
  18. Tyres are one of those things to not be scimped on IMO. They are the first and last thing connecting you to the road buddy. Its a good idea to do some research for your own peace of mind, as various different brands have different side wall strengths, compound and how long they last under normal driving conditions. I personally run the Hankook V12s and have no complaints about them at all. All tyres will have ratings on them, very similar to your electrical appliances rated from A - E for wet grip, fuel economy and road noise
  19. End of the day its much of a muchness whether its N1, V3 D2 C3P0 :|
  20. So little update, we have a N1 front bumper! Was dropped down the bodyshop on Tuesday. Looking forward to purchasing the revised preface DRLs from Torqen which will round the front end off nicely! Getting nervous about Incarnation now.... Also decided to smooth the front emblem off, should look tasty! More when I get updates
  21. If we have weather like we have been down south, its going to be absolutely glorious. Sat in the garden right now with a corona praying its good
  22. Have to agree with Dan on this, any alignment place worth its salt will listen to what you want. Theres a place locally to me called Hunter performance who have done all my car, specifically a full fast road set up on my Honda. Once dialled it was glorious As for camber, Id be looking more at the compounds of the trye. All are different and will react differently. I had T1Rs on the Honda and it gripped like poo to a shovel, but wore out quickly. One suggestion I'd make is have the tyres filled with nitrogen instead of air. Doesnt react anywhere near as air to temperature changes, and IMO provided a much firmer but smoother ride. Well worth the 12 quid it cost!
  23. The wiring wasnt there on my pals fairlady when we swapped his cloth seats for leather.
  24. Another vote for redoing the braking in procedure, had this a while ago! A good late night run up and down duel carriageway cured it, no more vibrations or clonks
