Mine idles like a wh0re aswell. I'm only just working my way through the first few problems. This is about 200 on the list, but if an answers out there i'm all ears! It constantly feels like it wants to cut out between gear changes and at low rpm. It also seems to idle at about 3rpm, which is...

To maybe help anyone else experiencing starting problems just now, mine was almost starting then going silent. It jump started the other day and idled pretty lumpy - as it seemed to up until it eventually wouldn't start the other day. Changed the battery first today, and same deal - so i let the...

Get a headunit with RCA capabilities, get some components in the front with fresh wiring, and if you're feeling flush - amp them with a 2 channel for extra sound quality and loudness. Then stick another set of components in the rear, or go with a pair of ol' faithful 6x9's on the parcel shelf...

Dunno what you could do with these fella, but feel free to use em if they're of any use! Drop me a PM if so and i'll fire you over the full size badboys.

Spot the VTS...

Is the starting cranking then dying?

Oops! You do the top layer aswell? I tried a tiny area once and s**t a chicken lol

You could well be right there fella, it would explain the clinking sound i'm getting at the backend. I'd put it down to the crap lying on the spare wheel but it seems likely it could be related to this. I've been so busy recently i haven't had a chance to get it out to my mates garage for a look...

Someone told me it's a good idea to use a very fine grade of sandpaper to give each layer of lacquer a rub down once it's dried. Not the final one obviously. Might wanna wait til someone fully confirms that though if you're doing full panels, but that's how i do it on my own stuff. Only thing...

Thanks for all the replies guys! :) I'd say it's been lowered somehow already - maybe about 40mm? It's definately A LOT stiffer on the road than standard. I'm slightly dubious about how it's been lowered though! I had a quick look at the front N/S when inspecting the horn. The springs are...

Gonna keep that one under my hat for resale purposes! haha The guy wanted 1550 for it, and i took him to town. Mainly due to the fact when he brought it to meet me, it wouldn't start again lol

+1 for this question, since i got my car the battery has drained enough to refuse a full turn over twice and both times the coil light came on. This time it hasn't gone off within a few hours. New battery required but what's the relation?

Christ on a bike! I dunno how i never knew that given a previous profession!.. Although, in my defense, i just checked and they only launched as a company a few months - maybe a year before i jacked it all in so wouldn't have been very well known. Anyhoo, the bootlock and diamond are all black...

Sounding great to me! I'm keen to find out a bit more about detailing n all that jazz but i'd end up buying something that was a load of shite, and at the prices i've been looking at i wouldn't be too amused if i was left with the most expensive playdoh in Britain. The car is absolutely...

Does anyone even know what the hell 'FLI' means? Dunno if it was someone's initials or something. It appears to be a chopped up FCUK sticker. That's going, as is the ELF sticker probably. Yea the single wiper is a pain in the arse, it's so noisy! I wanted one 8 years ago so yea they're a bit...
